Tires MICHELIN or PHANTOM

MICHELIN Tires

Installed these on my EV6. They’re pretty great in the snow (also in CO). Expect a 10-15% hit to your range

Pros: great in the snow
Cons: hit to your range
Vehicle: Kia

Just installed a new set of Michelin CrossClimate2 all weather tires to tackle the upcoming Colorado winter. Ride seems a bit more firm, in a generally good way. Seems just as quiet on most surfaces, and from prior experience with these on my other cars, I know the trend to get a bit quiter after an initial break in period.

Pros: ride seems more firm

I switched out to Cross Climate 2s , from Connecticut up to Portland was probably  some of the worst snow I've ever had to drive in. They felt Incredible. I drive on the highway every day here and in thunderstorms it's nothing but confidence.

Pros: felt incredible

I got around 20k from my next set of Michelin pilot road 4's and have not run another tire since. Yes they're expensive, but their dollar per mile ratio is incredible and they have fantastic wet weather performance

Pros: fantastic wet weather performance, incredible dollar per mile
Cons: expensive
Mileage: 20000 km

I’ve been riding the defenders two plus years in the Reno Tahoe area

I commute on 80 in all kinds of weather especially snow and honestly never had a problem

Pros: no problems in snow

My Winter set up includes Y rated tires, however they are not a Winter tire per Se. They are all season/ all-weather tires with the 3MPSF severe winter rating.

Pros: all season, severe winter rating

The Pilot Sport Cup 2's had great grip but are VERY expensive and had a strong tendency to tramline - do not reccommend for the street unless you track the car. The Pilot Sport 4s have better manners on the street in the OEM sizes (305/30R19 & 315/30R19) and are less expensive than the Cup 2's.

Pros: great grip
Cons: VERY expensive, tendency to tramline

Wasn't my experience at all. About six months ago I replaced the OEM Geolanders on my 2018 Crosstrek with CrossClimate 2 tires. By the time drove 15 minutes home I knew that there I didn't like what I was experiencing with the CrossClimates. They were noisier, jittery, mushy and didn't track like the Geolanders. I wrote it off as being new. They did an alignment and wheel balance during installation. I am not an aggressive driver but the interstate on ramp that I use all the time I could enter at 50mph and stay at 50. I had to brake use the Michelins. Also I lost 3 mpg compared to the Geolanders.

Cons: noisier, jittery, mushy
Vehicle: Subaru
