Tires MICHELIN or Kumho

MICHELIN Tires

I'm running Michelin CrossClimates most of the year, and Vredestein Wintrac Pros (on 18" wheels) in the winter. Both are great tires, the Michelins were an immediate and noticable improvement over the stock tires, especially on wet roads.

Pros: improvement over stock tires
Vehicle: Mazda

I only use CC2 on my Tesla Model S here in Utah. I get 60,000 miles out of them and they’re perfect for the climate here. Best and most reliable tire I’ve ever owned.

Pros: perfect for climate, reliable
Mileage: 60000 km

After seeing Michelins go the distance on every car that came into the shop I switched to them and never looked back.

Pros: go the distance

I got them for my wife's car, a luxury car that is quiet. We had light snow + local very icy roads last week and they were fine. Comfortable.

Pros: comfortable, fine on ice
Cons: not quiet particularly

I have them on my wife’s 2019 Mazda CX-9. It’s a very capable tire for what you’re asking for above. While they are directional they are not very noisy. Having said that I keep up with tire rotation (5k) as well as checking proper inflation every 3-4 weeks.

Pros: very capable tire
Cons: not very noisy

I used to have CC2's on my vehicle until I sold them. My wife now has them on her vehicle. The reason people suggest them is because they truly work fantastic. I was literally blow away. Dry traction (not hard lol). Great snow traction. And the craziest part, fantastic wet traction. I was driving down the highway and the highway, for whatever reason, around the bend was mildly flooded giving me no time to brake. I plowed through all that deeper water and only for half a second hydroplaned. I was blown away I didnt hydroplane through the majority of it and also happy my engine didnt suck up any water. . People in the comments have said they are noisy but I didnt notice it. Maybe me other "regular" tires were just as bad? The only down side to CC2's, they are a bit pricey. Well worth it for safety though!

Pros: fantastic wet traction
Cons: a bit pricey

I recently replaced my Pirelli with Michelin defenders. I have put about 5K miles on them so far. The range is about the same. I didn't notice a change in road noise. They were a little bit cheaper than the Pirelli tires.

Pros: slightly cheaper
Cons: no road noise improvement
Mileage: 5000 km

No. I live in Michigan and was severely disappointed with the Michelin CC2. The packed-snow braking, and lateral grip leave a LOT to be desired. In our neighborhood with packed snow the car just slid… And slid… and kept sliding. Even my wife exclaimed “aren’t these new tires” lol. The packed-snow and Ice traction is no different than a basic all-season tire. The only thing these tires excelled at is deep-puddles and rain, they really shed water fast.

Pros: shed water fast
Cons: poor snow braking
