Tires MICHELIN or Maxxis

4th winter with these, Montréal, Québec. Can’t barely see the difference with winters. 2025 Golf GTI, It’s the driver stupid…

I just got some on my Lexus. Drive wonderful. Zero noise complaints from my end, granted Lexus has really good sound proofing in the cab.

Tinted windows and Michelin Defenders after the OEM tires crapped out around 20k miles were also big improvement’s.

The Defenders might be the best all season tire you can buy. They last forever and ride extremely well.

Used them for 3 years on an Explorer in New England and they're definitely worth it. Never skimp on tires or brakes.

Living in CO, I can definitely recommend the CC2. Fantastic treadlife and handles really well in wet/hydroplaning to moderate snow. It’s not as good on ice as a dedicated snow tire but not bad at all. Personally, I haven’t noticed it being too loud as others have complained.

Depends what you need them for. They are very surefooted in the wet and good in snow (for all seasons). Definitely a bit loud so that’s the trade off. I love them for where I live. The continentals and Mich Primacy’s I had previously are much quieter but lacked the same level of wet grip

I vouch for good all weather tires. The Michelin Cross climates are great (although I think at some point they’ve been surpassed now by even better)

I used them through last winter, which had some extremely icy periods. I had one sketchy incident, where I hit a patch of ice going about 5 mph and just could not stop, but I don’t think Blizzaks would have saved me there considering how slow I was already going. Other than that, they performed fine for me.

These Michelin Primacy or whatever they are called are bad... Our car is due for new summer tires and they won't be Michelin. Michelin Corp has lost me as a potential customer forever.
