Tires MICHELIN or ADVAN

I’ve been riding the defenders two plus years in the Reno Tahoe area

I commute on 80 in all kinds of weather especially snow and honestly never had a problem

My Winter set up includes Y rated tires, however they are not a Winter tire per Se. They are all season/ all-weather tires with the 3MPSF severe winter rating.

Get Micheline X Ice North 4 of Nokian. All 3 of our cars have studded tires and we are the only ones with traction through all winter.

Love Michelin PS in any car TBH

I had cross climate twos on my Chevy Bolt in northern Michigan, they were awesome for snow, but definitely hurt my range. I'd consider them again but just know that your range will be affected.

If you’re driving that much I would just go with the Michelin defender 2s. Personally I wouldn’t buy any tires that aren’t Michelin they are by far the best imo

I’ve been driving Michelin Climacontact (285/20) for 4 years and two sets. A dedicated tire will always be better but for me it is a good compromise.

I don’t have a lot of experience with winter tires, but the Michelin Pilot Alpins I used last winter were fantastic.

I ran Michelin Pilot Sport AS4+ on my SQ5 before I sold it. For most CUV, running car all season tires is better and often cheaper solution if you never go off pavement (sand/mud/grass etc)

The rear chews through the Michelin PS4 tires. I replaced them with Firestone Firehawk Indy 500s.
