Tires MICHELIN or OEM Toyota

Absolutely. I got them for a 23 Jetta and the difference between stock and this is insane. Unreal grip, and I haven’t lost control yet in about 15k miles ever, not even as much as a burnout (which was very common on the stock kumhos).

Just got CC2s for my 23 CRV and the performance is night and day from the OEM tires! We've had a weird stretch of snow in MN lately and they've been as good as advertised!

I have been through a set and yes they are worth the money. They are great all weather tires but I will say this when it comes to deeper snow and ice you won't beat a dedicated snow tire like Blizzaks. I ran my Cross CLimates 2s on my pruis year round and did great with them.

Love ‘em. Way better than factory tires (Bridgestone) on our RX. And better than the similar Goodyears from 15 years ago. Very quiet and great handling.

We put them on my wife's crossover/SUV and liked them. The road noise was slightly more than her previous set, which I think was Michelin Primary Tour A/S, if I recall. However, the snow performance on the CC was much better. We live in the Chicago suburbs, so having the better traction and grip in the snow was a worthwhile trade off for the road noise.

Just put them on my wife’s Crosstrek, she immediately said she felt more confident in the car. I drove it for the first time in snow a few days ago and was very surprised at how well it did. Would absolutely buy again.

I have an appointment Monday to get my current CC2s replaced with a fresh set of CC2s. I got 40k miles out of them, which is good enough for me. They are great in the rain/wet, with excellent hydroplane resistance, and they are very capable in the snow and ice.

We run Michelin rubber, period.

I had a 2018 v60 polestar and even with the pilot sport tires it was passable for winter driving.

As someone thats ran dedicated snow tires, they won’t impress you in snow and ice. The stopping distance in snow/ice is not much better than a standard all-season. Also, after the second season in snow (Michigan) even though they had 7.5mm tread the performance was really lackluster, maybe this is because of heat cycling throughout the summer making the compound harder? It was a fun experiment, but I’m Definitely going back to swapping seasonal tires. Nothing replaces true snow tire grip. Also, they are not very quiet, or very efficient. Saw about a 8% drop.
