Tires NITTO or Vredestein
These look like Vredestein quatracs, which are an excellent all season/all weather tire. They are not a winter tire though. Much better in winter conditions than the 3 season tires which are standard in the US, but not as good as a winter tire.
I went the all-weather route and run Vredestein Quadtrac Pro+ tires. This snowstorm was my first time trying them out in anything more than a dusting and they handled great! I had grip for days in everything other than super thick slush, and with a bit of caution that was no issue either.
I was able to get Nitto Recon Grapplers 37x12.5r20 installed for $2030 out the door. Others in town were about $2400-$2800 for the same tires and install.

Nitto G2s. I have em on my widebody
You can get a good all weather tire with 3PMSF rating for less than the CC2s. See Vredestein Quadtrac Pro, Falken Aklimate, and Altimax 365AW. All of these will be cheaper than the Michelins but will provide long tread life and good performance in snow + cold temps. I put the Quadtrac Pros on my mom's Impreza a couple years ago (Chicagoland area) and they've been great. So much better than the Firestone FT140s it came with from the factory.
On the truck I have some Vredestein Pinza AT tires which are quite beefy and snow tire rated but also pretty smooth on the highway.
Vredestein, been using them on my Inty for a year now, good grip. You just need to be careful as they are prone to puncture easily due to them being soft compound.
We’ve had a HORRIBLE experience with Vredestein tires. We put them on my son’s Acura TSX, and 20,000 miles later all four are shot and need to be replaced. The front two are BALD. And by “bald” I mean BALD all the way across the tire.
