Tires MICHELIN or DUNLOP

I have CrossClimate2 on 3 of my cars. I can’t believe how good this tire is.

I've used cross climate 2 tires on my bolt for the last 35k miles. You take a range hit. But the traction and no more squealing tires. The traction gain is insane.

I’m running a set of CC2 for the third winter now also in Southern Ontario. The past two winters have been relatively mild but this winter has seen more typical accumulation of snow and ice letting me really get a sense of how the CC2’s perform. In short I’ve been completely impressed with how great they are in winter conditions. Last week during a 125km commute between Kitchener/Waterloo to Toronto I drove all on snow covered highways and stayed firmly planted, tracked straight, and at speed in a RWD car to boot. The CC2’s have about 25k km’s on them and they perform like new.

The 999 rear does skid out much easier then the Dunlop American elite, however I like to skid so that is a pro for me. I ran thru 2 Dunlop elites quite quickly. For the record I did like the Dunlop AE, just didn’t like replacing it every season

The Crossclimate 2 is a good tire that lasts and is worth the money. The weatherpeak last about 30,000 miles and has the thinnest sidewall of all time. Shop around more if you want but DO NOT BUY THE WEATHERPEAKS under any circumstances .

The Elites are a much better tire and I’m going to miss them when they’re gone.

I run Dunlop American Elites. Mind you, I do so because it’s a good tire - not so much a ‘Made in America’ reason, albeit a plus.

I bought a set of 275/50R22 Defender LTX 2 from Costco for about $305 a tire and it was a massive upgrade from OEM. Highly recommend

I had the AS3 on my old Accord Sport. Outside of grip, I didn't really care for them (loud, rough, but it was on an already sort of loud Honda), and the OG DWS on my old Si. Those were OK.

The pilot sports are terrible. I burned through my set in 11000 miles.
