Tires MICHELIN or Pirelli

I have been using the Michelin Cross Climate 3 for a few weeks in eastern Europe, Romania. So far I have used it in 10 cm deep snow, compacted snow, wet roads, inclines +10%, in a temperature range from -18 to +3 Celsius and have had zero issues so far.

I have no complaints with my Pilot Alpin 5’s. Two seasons.

Am facut uber o perioada. Am avut in acea perioada Crossclimate 2 care au dus onorabil orice drum pt 50.000km. Cand m-am hotarat sa le schimb am zis sa incerc si Nokian Seasonproof. Nu exista efectiv comparatie. Nokianurile noi erau mai slabe decat Michelinurile vechi si uzate la toate tipurile de drum. Michelin de acum\u2026 nu mai fac experimente.

Michelin does have all season Pilot Sport tires. I have these on my A4 Quattro and they are amazing, as were the previous versions I had before. I had plenty of tread on the previous tires with 35k miles, but they were replaced because of a hole in a sidewall. The grip is excellent in dry, rain, and cold weather and they have little road noise.

I just had mine upgraded from OE to Michelin Crossclimate2 with the $80 Michelin discount. So far so good.

Another option is to run four-season tires like the Michelin CrossClimate 2. Those are not as good as dedicated winters, but do have the mountain/snowflake symbol and can be left on year 'round. My daughter in AA takes that approach and seems happy with the compromise.

lol, yes. my car is fwd, i bought some brand new michelin ice x's for this winter and even though i'm having a slightly better time i still dread red lights, stop signs, yields, you name it. i do all the tips and tricks you can name as well.

After 2 years and 20k miles my cross climate 2 started to lose traction on ice. Still at 8/32nds though.

I'm lowered on coils but I still rub. I have shitty Westlake tires. I failed inspection because one of the tires was separating. Long story short got a used Michelin tire and well it rubs like shit.

Wait until you go through a summer and the rubber heat-cycles, after that (even with 7~8mm tread left) the tire is absolute dog-shit in the snow. Worst $1,200 I’ve spent…
