Tires MICHELIN or Hifly

I love them on my Passat. I also love doing 70 in snowstorms, don’t think you get many of those in Texas

I had these on my V90 for 3 years. Fantastic all-season tire that worked great in the snow during ski trips. Pretty quite at highway and wore great. If not driving in snow/ice I think it's overkill but 100% would buy again.

The Michelin Energy Savers are great, and I never had a budget tyre come close.

I replaced mine this year and went with the Defender 2, not sure if you’ve considered them instead of the CrossClimate2. Love them so far, very quiet and smooth, and I find they handle water way better than the stock Nexens.

Michellin is always the go-to high end rubber for those who are flying with cash. Pilot Sport Cup 2/2R or Pilot Sport 4S for the wet. Pilot 4S I think is one of the best regarded tire in wet conditions & generally an amazing all-rounder.

We may have to send your original tires to a museum as the longest lasting Michelin Energy Savers!

If you live in South Texas in an area that gets a lot of rain I would say that you will get excellent traction with these. I live in Houston, and we get LOTS of rain and hurricanes etc. I have these on my Lincoln MKS (big heavy AWD sedan) because I previously lived in Colorado and needed the three peak rated tires for the snow. If I was living here when I needed new tires I probably wouldn’t have gotten them, but I have NEVER had a traction issue driving even at higher speeds in heavy downpours. Feels like a dry road to me.

I have been using michellin primacy 4ST since 35k on my car 4-5 years ago. Covered 40k till now they are still good for another 20-30k and they have made the car very quiet and much better to handle.

Am eu CrosClimate2 de 4-5 ani deja. E bine ca nu mai trebuie sa le schimbi, depozitezi etc. Sincer, am fost undeva la munte cand erau noi, si pe o coborare unde era polei s-au dus sanie.

I'm in Buffalo ny and I can't stand the CC2 tires had them on a Dodge minivan. In fresh snow where nobody else has driven these tires were actually really good but as soon as you got into the street where people were driving already Boy oh boy did that front end slip around all over the place. After stopping at a red light or a stop sign I would be stuck trying to go with other vehicles flying around me super disappointed in these tires. With the high rating of these tires I really expected a lot more. I switched to a used discontinued firestone and now I have the best grip ever. The difference is unbelievable
