Tires MICHELIN or Firestone

We have cross climates on our Ascent and they're great. Almost makes me look forward to winter!

Just had them put on my car, a 2023 Explorer ST, and yes they're worth the money. For context, I live in Maine, and travel a lot for youth sports, and often with 5 souls on board. They're awesome tires and I feel safe driving in them at all times. They handle wet, slushy roads so well and in the summer they're still responsive enough.

Love the CC2. We had some snow here in Michigan this week and I was very happy with the way they performed.

Absolutely. I got them for a 23 Jetta and the difference between stock and this is insane. Unreal grip, and I haven’t lost control yet in about 15k miles ever, not even as much as a burnout (which was very common on the stock kumhos).

Just got CC2s for my 23 CRV and the performance is night and day from the OEM tires! We've had a weird stretch of snow in MN lately and they've been as good as advertised!

I have been through a set and yes they are worth the money. They are great all weather tires but I will say this when it comes to deeper snow and ice you won't beat a dedicated snow tire like Blizzaks. I ran my Cross CLimates 2s on my pruis year round and did great with them.

Love ‘em. Way better than factory tires (Bridgestone) on our RX. And better than the similar Goodyears from 15 years ago. Very quiet and great handling.

We put them on my wife's crossover/SUV and liked them. The road noise was slightly more than her previous set, which I think was Michelin Primary Tour A/S, if I recall. However, the snow performance on the CC was much better. We live in the Chicago suburbs, so having the better traction and grip in the snow was a worthwhile trade off for the road noise.

We got a lot of refunds for Michelin primacy tires with foam separation, maybe Pirelli will give you your money back too.

As someone thats ran dedicated snow tires, they won’t impress you in snow and ice. The stopping distance in snow/ice is not much better than a standard all-season. Also, after the second season in snow (Michigan) even though they had 7.5mm tread the performance was really lackluster, maybe this is because of heat cycling throughout the summer making the compound harder? It was a fun experiment, but I’m Definitely going back to swapping seasonal tires. Nothing replaces true snow tire grip. Also, they are not very quiet, or very efficient. Saw about a 8% drop.
