I just popped mine on tonight for the east coast snow shenanigans this weekend. They did amazing during 1000+ mile ski trip to Canada. They make the speed variable humming. But man are they soft.

Pros: amazing during ski trip
Cons: speed variable humming
Mileage: 1609 km

Mainer with a 200 here. I actually run Michelin Defender LTX M/S2s on mine year round. M/S = mud & snow.\n\nThey\u2019ve performed really admirably for me in pretty brutal winter conditions we get up here.

Pros: admirable winter performance

We have a 2019 Atlas FWD that is plenty capable for Northern Midwest Winters and last year I put on a set of Michelin CrossClimate2's which really will amp up its capability in snow. I have CC2's on my Jetta and it really has been great, not a ton of deep snow experience with the Atlas with them yet but no concerns.

Pros: amps up capability in snow
Vehicle: Volkswagen

Chill mode shpild be more efficient, but I put my YP in sport mode when there's enough snow and ice on the road to be slippery. I drive with it in chill most of the time for efficiency and to save tires, but last winter the rear stepped out a few times in snow and ice at speeds from 25 MPH around a traffic circle and on a curve going up a steep grade on the interstate at 60 MPH even with Michelin Ice-X tires on 19s.

Pros: save tires, more efficient
Cons: rear stepped out, slippery

I had the CC2’s on my Explorer, to replace the OEM tires. They handle great, and are excellent in the snow, but they were very loud, and got louder as they wore, I also noticed a significant reduction in gas mileage, 15-20% depending on season. I eventually swapped them for what is essentially the Pirelli version of the same tire. They are called the Scorpion WeatherActive and were far and away better than the Michelins on my vehicle. Gas mileage went back to normal and they were much quieter.

Pros: handle great, excellent snow
Cons: very loud, mileage reduction
