Tires MICHELIN or Toyo

I have Michelin defenders on my RAV4. They're loud but go like hell in the snow

I only put Michelin defenders on my Highlander and 4runner and we use the 4runner to go to the Hunt land, gravel roads going into rutted dirt roads, forest service roads when going fishing, no issues at all.

Toyos were my favorite tire on my 350z

Had a set of Proxes Sport a few years ago. Overall they’re really good tires. Smooth, responsive, predictable at the limit, and pretty quiet too.

After all my research I settled on Michelin X ICE Snow SUV. I went with 18" wheels and the ride is smooth, with a slight hum from the winter threads. Overall very quiet.

I’ve had the Michelin CC2’s for about 30k + miles and they still perform amazing in the Snow. Was up around Breck the opening weekend and had no problems.

I'm in the same boat as you are. 2022 AWD and I'm looking at the Michelin crossclimate 2 or the Yokohama yk-ctx.

We have Michelin defender2 on the alltrack for the past 20K and they are nice and quiet, no signs of cupping so far.

I have the Michelin CC2s on a Model 3 LR AWD. They are very good tire, but they are loud loud loud on certain types of roads. If you need or specifically want snow performance, they're a great option, otherwise I'd definitely get something else. I took about a 10% hit on range versus moderately worn OEM Michelin MXV4, but to be fair the New CC2s had way way more tread depth. If I had a do over, I'd definitely try the Hankook Ions.

I just got them on my civic lx and it good and all but I swear they are hella sensitive, any slight movement of the steering wheel and my car is swerving left or right, unlike my old tires which were old but I wouldn't be swerving. Like when I try to change lanes on highways it swerves and lifts a bit on the back. Anyone know why?
