Michelin ps4 s4 are better than both. I much prefer them to the pirelli that came on the car.
Ice x are 95% as good but much better on regular pavement for when it isn't snowing as much. I usually chose the ice x for my car
I went from those same tires to Michelin PS4s and I'm very happy with them. I have no issues in the rain.
I gotta say the factory Michelin PS AS 4 on non z51 c8s are actually incredible. I can't believe how well they hook up for an all season.
I would say get studless snow tires (not all-seasons): Michelin X-Ice Snow, Bridgestone Blizzak WS90, or Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5.
I was faced with the same issue, so I measured the tread depth difference. In about 16 K miles, my Michelin Defenders were down by about 0.178 mm or 0.007\" or 0.224/32.
Michelin X-Ice tires on sale at Canadian Tire have one the best value for a quality tire.
Crossclimate2 tires are really really good.
They're wild since they not only have superb snow traction, the dry traction actually is close to summer touring tire levels of grip.
The trade-off is rain. Still above average.
The most wild thing is I installed mine at 27,000 miles 3 years ago. I'm at 77,000 miles (50k on the tires) and Costco told me they measured at 5/32.
That means I'll get 70k miles out of these tires. Way past the 50k warranty.
I have a Model 3 Performance and I drive it like I stole it, these tires hold up to abuse.
I have the Michelin Pilot Sport All-season 4s which is the primary competitor to this tire and they’re completely useless in the snow on my 06. Great cold and wet weather tire but if you frequently need to drive in snow then get a proper winter tire.
PS4S gets slimy and the car will get loose 5 minutes into a track session or on hot autox days.
