Tires MICHELIN or Kumho

I’m blazing through most all snowy conditions with AWD and crossclimate 2 tires which are snow rated but also a great all season tire.

I run Michelin CrossClimate 2 and have been happy with them, in northern Indiana. My son put a set on his 2IS and he’s also a fan.

This is why I always buy the best possible tires for any car I own. Unfortunately that really hurt last week when I spent $2500 on a new set of tires (Michelin Pilot Sport S 5).

About 30-40k miles. I just changed to Michelin LTX M/s for a second round the first set got me 85K miles. I’m hoping these ones last the same amount of miles.

I second the Cross Climates. I have them on my NX and they\u2019re the best tires I\u2019ve ever had.

I swap wheels/tires twice a year running summers on the stock wheels and winter Michelin snow/ice on 17 basic black wheels. Car handles snow in New England like a dream.

Alpin 5s are awesome. Never an issue in as much as 4-6" of snow.

If you have issues with your current tires, consider getting a all weather tire like CrossClimate 2s.

The only time I’ve had any real control issues driving in my forester with Michelin cross climates was heading to the airport to pick up my daughter during freezing rain. Glazed ice everywhere and you couldn’t stop worth a damn.

Yeah kumho ecsta on my car and lasted roughly 15k miles. Won’t be going with them again
