CC2 is an amazing tire. Snow fall from a single storm can be measured in several inches to a couple of feet. My wife’s Cayenne is an absolute monster in these conditions with the Michelins. She runs them all year and this will be the 3rd winter on the same set, with amazing wear.
Owner reviews for tires
I absolutely love the Cross Climates. Their handling in rain and snow is very good, and they just seem to ride more comfortably than the Defenders ever did. They are also more quiet. FWIW I’ve only had my Cross Climates for one winter here in MD.
Cross climate 2s are amazing. Won’t buy anything else after owning them tbh for year round use.
CC2 is the best upper Midwest all season tire. Nothing else is even close.
CC2’s carried me through last winter. Snow, icy roads no problems. I was able to rescue my son in a snowstorm when he slid off the road. 4-6” of unplowed snow and my CR-V handled it like a champ.
With 16K miles on them the treads are still beefy. They handle great, do really well in the rain, and seemed to take the edge off the harsh highway ride. 100% recommend them.
The Bridgestone Blizzack is an excellent winter tire. We’ve tried a few other brands over the years but this was noticeably better, the best one for ice in my experience.
Currently using toyo TR1, quite noisy when cruising on highway since it's considered as UHP
The Falken tires they roll out of the factory suck, Falken as a brand in general isn’t bad. I went from Falken ZX-somethings to Falken Wildpeaks on my Crosstrek and it’s night and day.
Yesh they suck. I put Nokian WRG4’s on at 5,000 miles when I got my ‘22.
