Tires MICHELIN or Toyo

Got my CC2s a few months ago and drove 5 hours in hard rain with pools of water on the highway with zero issues. Like it was dry traction. Drove a bit on ice and snow and amazing traction. Safety is worth the extra money I spent on these premium tires.

I have the cross climate and they are far better in snow than the stock primacy tires. Since switching it’s snowed a bunch more times and it’s been fine.

Can’t speak to them on a crosstrek directly, but I have a set on my Xterra. Not terrible in terms of road noise day to day (even at a higher load rating on a heavier vehicle), and great tread life so far. As for grip, they are excellent. They got me through Minnesota’s snowiest winter in recent history last year and aided in getting a lot of my neighbors unstuck too.

Even just driving 20 miles the OEM contis pctx and switching directly to the Michelins I can say they are definitely a more quality tire. For 1 the sidewalls on them dont create a worrying lip as if theyre stretched. The ride quality on them is absolutely amazing! Feel much more durable and going over normal bumps or the occasional pothole thats unavoidable gives me way more confidence. Also due to the stiffer sidewalls they feel way more responsive. Drove around 100 miles on them today and can say for certain that I will continue to be using these for however long I own this car!

I had AT3’s on my trek before I sold it for a truck. Great tires. They were great on muddy back roads in Texas getting to rural stations and were just as good when I moved to Colorado and dealt with snow storms.

Love the Toyo AT3 on my 17 CT. 215/65R15s. For comparison, the Bridgestones were 8lbs heavier per tire and that’s a huge difference in acceleration and wear/tear on the suspension/steering components. Also they are much quieter than Bridgestones.

Currently have a/t 3 on my CT, overall love them, 19k on the tires overall with light to moderate off-road and as well snow storms. They are a bit noiser but once you get used to it, the noise won't bother you. Better traction overall and worth it compared to the stock tires that came on mine. Went mudding over the weekend and they did great

I ran these on my Mustang when I couldn't get Pilot Sport 4S tires at the time. I liked them. They were grippy and comfortable but did have a softer sidewall than the Michellin.

I lost 2-3 mpg. I went from stock to 285/70/17s Toyos OC AT2s.

Wife ran Celcius for 3 years. Burned out at 30k

They were great year one. So so year two. Struggled with driveway year 3.
