Tires MICHELIN or WEST LAKE

CrossClimates are expensive up front, but they’re incredibly durable, offer outstanding wet handling and short stopping distances, and are among the safest all-weather tires on the market. Once you factor in how long they last, the price per km ends up being very low.

Very very happy with my x ice tires

I’ve bought both for my Jetta. The X-Ice worked great in our winter conditions. The X-Ice have a 60k tread wear warranty and the Blizzaks have none. The X-Ice are also made at the Michelin Pictou plant so they support Nova Scotian jobs.

I would stand by the Michelin Cross Climate 2 as a year round tire. I found it fantastic in the rain and snow. I think the trade off was that the ice performance was worse than a traditional snow and ice tire, but overall, it was just fantastic and if my current car hadn't come with new tires, I would have just bought those again.

X-Ice are great.

the X-Ice has lower rolling resistance (better fuel economy) and is the only winter tire I know of with a manufacturer treadlife warranty, so if longevity is your concern, go Michelin.

my michelin x ice's lasted FOREVER.

I have the Michelin X-Ice and I love them! Plus Michelin tires have a road side assistance included, which I love

They're Westlake ZuperAce Z-007 tires...This (in summer temperatures right now) subjectively to me grips better, brakes better, handles better but is way noisier and less comfortable (UHP tire and no sound deadening like OE tires).

good it was the biggest example of false advertising on the planet. michelin tires in the game didn’t match the actual performance in real life at all.
