Tires MICHELIN or Cooper

I have 235/60R18 tires on new wheels with x-Ice snow tires and this is my 3rd winter. I don't believe the tires cause much if any range loss as they are narrower than stock. My overall winter range loss is about 12%, 250 watts per mile versus 285..

Anvelopele all season de la michelin chiar sunt bune, la urmatorul set chiar ma gandesc si eu sa trec pe all season avand in vedere ca nu au mai fost ierni asa de grele in ultimii ani.

Recently picked up my 2026 1LT, immediately had Michelin Alpin PA4's mounted. Lots of fun.

Yes. Good road, snow and decent wet tire. Wear well and they are decently priced in todays mad expensive world.

My wife has crossclimates on her Q7 and they are amazing. Much better than her previous all seasons.

I love my CrossClimate tires. Lived here my whole life and when I got them 2 years ago it was a game changer. Would highly recommend.

If I want a long lasting all terrain truck tire it's usually the Michelin LTX AT2. They're expensive but the cost justifies their longevity.

$30k gets you a really nice Golf R. Co-worker just bought a 6-speed Mk7 and daily’s it here in southern AB on a set of Michelin X-Ice’s. Ive driven it a few times and would definitely have one over a newer WRX.

my experience is that summer tyres provide _significantly_ more grip in the wet than CC2s. If you get ice and snow, CC2s are great, but they're not very good in the wet.

They're also not particularly quiet. I put them on my XC90 and found them to be very droney at anything over 50mph.

The OEM tires - Michelin EnergySaver AS - are great for efficiency and pretty bad for everything else. Went through two sets, and both were consistently bad in rain and snow. One of the tires on the second set got ripped on the *sidewall* as it hit a pothole, and I found out later that the sidewalls were indeed a bit of weakness for them.
