Tires MICHELIN or DUNLOP

I am running Michelin crossclimates year round.

Those ain't snow tires. Get some Michelin ice x 3

At 70K miles I went with Michelin Pilot Sport A/S4 tires. That was about 7,000 miles ago and they are by far the best tires I have had on this car.

The sportiest all-weather tires are probably the Michelin CrossClimate 2, Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady 2, and Pirelli WeatherActive.

Pilot Sport AS4

Pilot sport all season 4

For me, Altima FWD, they are a little worse than my dedicated snow tire when I’ve ran them (I’ve gotten stuck once and had to put on chains). I like the blizzaks better but the CC2s do ok. CC2s also get slightly worse mpg than the blizzaks/are a little louder.

I just put them on my Forester and am now struggling to maintain 30mpg whilst before I was sitting between 34 - 36 depending on how many red lights I caught that week. I kind of wish I had gone with the Defender 2 series or another touring tire personally as I already have Blizzak WS90s on my Wrx STi that I can use for heavy snow

My experience is they are noisy and don\u2019t wear evenly unless you rotate religiously every 3000-5000 miles. I drive a 4WD truck, but I find the Michelin Defender M/S2 to be a better tire.

No. I live in Michigan and was severely disappointed with the Michelin CC2. The packed-snow braking, and lateral grip leave a LOT to be desired. In our neighborhood with packed snow the car just slid… And slid… and kept sliding. Even my wife exclaimed “aren’t these new tires” lol. The packed-snow and Ice traction is no different than a basic all-season tire. The only thing these tires excelled at is deep-puddles and rain, they really shed water fast.
