MICHELIN Tires

I swapped my tires for a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2\u2019s once the treads on my Kumho wore off. The upgrade has been great, especially in the rain and snow.

Pros: great in rain, snow

I have Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires now on year around and they work pretty great. Not as good as my old setup with dedicated winter tires, but they're good enough. I'd say they work just as well as dedicated winter tires with fresh snow, so if you want to be able to handle a few unplowed inches then they do that excellently.

Pros: work pretty great
Cons: not as good

Pros: really like them

On my wife's truck in the summer she likes quieter tires so Michelin Defenders, but she gets the same Winterforce LTs in the winter.

Pros: quieter tires

I switch to Michelin x-ice in the winter. There\u2019s always going to be that \u201cjust drive better\u201d snob that acts like winters are a waste but at least once a year they slam on their brakes in snow and for a brief few seconds they wish they had winters on.

Pros: minimize how loose, back end

Rating 3.0

They have great traction in the rain and snow. On the other hand they’re fairly loud, compared to most other all weather tires you’ll likely see up to a 5%-10% drop in fuel economy(traction comes with a cost), and ride quality and handling are mediocre at best. Whether the great traction is worth it is your decision.

Pros: great traction in rain/snow
Cons: fairly loud, mediocre handling

This looks like to be a Michelin PS 3 or 4. If my guess is correct, these are sport tire which means soft rubber compound, and because of that they degrade (harden) fast. From experience, with normal use, they are good for 2-3 years of driving, then they get horribly bad (hard). Above 4 years they become hard like hockey pucks - the rubber looks shiny with lots of micro cracking and they are (from experience) deadly in the rain. So, judging from the picture one (i see micro cracking) and the fact they are 5 years old: They are gone. Tread depth is irrelevant now. They are so hard that you cant wear them down not even in 100.000km. Btw. about 6-7mm is the tread depth when these (Michelin PS) tires are new.

Pros: good for 2-3 years
Cons: degrade fast, harden quickly, deadly in rain, micro cracking
