Tires MICHELIN or Hankook

I have cross climate 2s that are highly rated all weather tires for winter driving. They're phenomenal. My current FWD car drives about the same as my old AWD car did thanks to them.

I buy Michelin Pilot Sport all-season tires because their performance means my safety. (Also because they handle well when I’m having fun)

For a second vehicle that still has to be solid in snow, I’d go Michelin X-Ice Snow and not even think twice. They bite way harder on packed snow than any A/T and make a heavy truck like a Silverado feel way more planted on cold mornings. I ran them on my old 1500 and the difference in braking/steering vs. all-terrains was huge.

a dedicated winter like the Michelin X-Ice Snow makes a huge difference on those slick mornings and unplowed side streets.

Bit the bullet this year and put the Michelin X-Ice on. Completely different handling and traction.

Best tires on the market are Michelin Defenders. You’ll thank me in 3 years when you have little to no tire wear

I got a good deal on hankook extreme at2 rf12. They look good and are 3 peak rated. They have been fantastic in the snow compared to the stock Goodyear wranglers. Also have a 70k mile warranty, but we’ll see if they actually last that long.

I just put Michelin Crossclimate2s on mine and they're doing great.

My $1200 Michelin ice-x tires wore out faster than my inexpensive $600 Toyo tires and the travel experience is EXACTLY the same.

This looks like to be a Michelin PS 3 or 4. If my guess is correct, these are sport tire which means soft rubber compound, and because of that they degrade (harden) fast. From experience, with normal use, they are good for 2-3 years of driving, then they get horribly bad (hard). Above 4 years they become hard like hockey pucks - the rubber looks shiny with lots of micro cracking and they are (from experience) deadly in the rain. So, judging from the picture one (i see micro cracking) and the fact they are 5 years old: They are gone. Tread depth is irrelevant now. They are so hard that you cant wear them down not even in 100.000km. Btw. about 6-7mm is the tread depth when these (Michelin PS) tires are new.
