Years ago I was door dashing, had a really nice set of snow tires on my legacy. That thing is a beast in the snow; one lady came to the door and apologized for not having shoveled. I handed her food over and said "no worries" and brapped my out of her driveway while she watched me essentially plow it with my bumper, easily walked thru 8+ inches of snow without missing a beat.

Pros: beast in the snow

So I have run the cc2 on my 2010 legacy for about 30k, I'm pretty familiar with their good and bad points. They wear very well so long as you rotate every 5k or less and keep your alignment to spec. After 30k I'm still at 8/32. They have phenomenal snow traction and outstanding rain performance. Summer performance is fine, not dedicated summer sport tire level but fine for me. They can be a little bit louder but nothing that bothers. They do pick up gravel, so you do hear that as it gets ejected and they will cut your mileage by about 2-3 mpg, also no big deal. All in all I find them to be the best tires I've ever run on an all wheel drive car and I will always run them on my subie unless something is proven better.

Pros: phenomenal snow traction
Cons: cut mileage, pick gravel
Mileage: 30000 km

Agree on the Goodyears. I have them on my Subaru Legacy, really improved the handling. Quicker turn in, quiet and smooth.

Pros: improved handling, quiet, smooth

My Legacy is a bit heavier and automatic, for that I went with Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires for snow capable year rounders. They're absolutely amazing, not too loud in summer, very capable as a snow tire.

Pros: amazing, very capable
Cons: not too loud

GOODRIDGE Tires

I seem to get 45k km from each full set of Goodride SA07s (215/45/ZR17). This is on a Subaru Legacy that spends most of its time above 80kph.

Pros: 45k km each set
Mileage: 45000 km
Part number: SA07S

I ran two sets of nexen su1 across 80kkm on a 10 yo + Subaru legacy 3.0r a few years ago.

They were fine. Good grip in the wet. Only grumble I had was they were a bit noisy

Pros: good grip in wet
Cons: a bit noisy
Mileage: 80000 km

WANLI Tires

The Wanli S1088s I got were brand new when I got the Rims and tires from a buddy that sold his wrx, they're starting to have the notorious road noise, I'm guessing I'll need to replace them by next august so the noise doesn't drive me nuts.

Cons: notorious road noise
