This is my second season rocking the pilot alpin 5’s with no issues. Only issue I have is with the design of the induction wheels: they trap snow inside the wheel and if it sinks to the bottom surface when you’re parked, it can freeze and cause a bad vibration because it puts the wheels off balance.
Went for CC2's - and I cannot complain so far. Haven't had the first real strong snow day, but they have been good in wet conditions so far.
Just had the Cross Climate 2s installed and I am loving them. Smoother, quieter ride. Everything I've watched and read about them having great wet/dry, and amazing snow traction is totally accurate.
I have the CC2’s on my Polestar 2 DM on Vancouver Island. They have been great this past week in the snow and ice and were fine earlier in the year.
That why i changed my tires from eco contact 6 to the Michelin crossclimate 2 one of the best all weather tires on the market and good enough for my 75hp corsa but the eco contact 6 suck ass because they are made to have a low rolling resistance
I made the same mistake with an NB I put midrange all weather tires on and I aqua planed as soon as I hit a puddle the cheapest tyre I put on my MX-5S now is Michelin pilot sport I have pilot sport 4s on my NB and pilot sport 5 on my ND well worth the extra money and even in wet weather the cars grip like a beast only down side with my ND on pilot sport 5s is it's really hard to even wheel spin let alone get a nice slide going dam things grip so much.
Michelin Commander 2 or 3 - I put 25k miles on a MC2 on my old sportster - they just fucking last and have decent wet, great dry traction
Never, ever try to save money on tyres!! They're what connects your car to the road, literally the most important part for safety and handling. One of the few parts where I personally go for one of the more expensive models. NO exceptions.
My Primacy's only lasted 27K miles on my sr+. Sure they had good EV range, and decent handling, but couldn't even last 30K miles.
I totally agree with ALL your comments about the stock Michelins. It is a shame VW but such a crappy tire on such a fine car. The HXMX4 is one of the lowest rated all season tires based on user reviews at Tire Rack. I was really happy to send the Michelins to the recycling bin...
