At 21k it was nearing time for new tires on my BMW i4 EV. Tire Rack had a package so i downsized from 19" staggered wheels and I ordered square 18" wheels with the Michelin CrossClimate2: 245/45- 18. The camber was set neutral for the tires, not aggressively as per BMW. 600 miles in, and the car rides fine. If I were to lose a few hundredths in speed at the track, I don't notice it in daily driving. I don't notice a difference in noise notwithstanding the aggressive tread. What i did notice is that the tires are a bit stiffer despite the larger sidewall. Weather has been cold for the northeast. Very pleased overall. Hoping to get 50k out of the tires with periodic rotation. For most of us, the cost and inconvenience of swapping summer and winter tires isn't worth it. Tire design is based on tradeoffs - normally traction under certain conditions and durability. Rating tires should include weights for driving under various conditions. Otherwise, dry weather performance is overemphasized. Safety in snow and wet weather is a primary concern for me.
In another video I watched the CC2 was rated 3rd and the Pirelli Cinturado was 1st overall. The CC2 was shown to not do well in rain and summer driving
I had the CC2 on my last car and I loved them. They are quiet and work great in any weather, plus they offer really low rolling resistance. Definitely worth the money.
A word of caution on the Pirelli P7. I have the Scorpion AS that has the same tread pattern. There is an "inside" and "outside" mounting. I had to have three of my tires re-mounted because of this.
I just got cooper tires and they are so noisy Sam Club replaced one that made so much noise it had to be replaced with only 120 miles. My Kia Sportage was so quiet and now it sound like like riding in a jeep with snow tires. I live in Hawaii and speed limit is 50 mph. I'm 80 and there goes my quiet retirement life. My engine blew up at 38.000 miles but it was 25 days before the warranty ran out so they installed a complete new engine. I was a retired mechanic and Buick factory rep, auto shop teacher and invented the BMX bicycle. Oh started out working at a Parkard Dealer lol. What is this world coming too?
Waterfall Eco Dynamic All Season Tire i have this tires they are absolutely cheap it has good grip on rain and snow even in dry they are less miles but affordable than hefty expensive tires
Only relevant for the US, not all types are available in Europe and some top quality tyres (available in Europe) are not on your list. Maybe change the title into: My top 10 all season tyres, only relevant for USA
The data you compiled are old. The latest Tyre Reviews/Jonathan tests/measurements clearly show that Michelin CC2 moved to the third place, the new Pirelli AS getting to no. 1 since at least a few months ago. However, the all-seasons/weather tyres are used only by lazy/cheap/uninformed/dumb drivers in areas with four seasons, because the dedicated winter tyres are the best (at least 80% of the time) during winter and the UUHP summer tyres are the best during summer. Such propaganda for the compromised all-weather/seasons tyres (better overall only for about a month in the spring and maybe one in the fall) is making the roads far less safe during winter and summer driving.
No, you are wrong, like me living in Michigan, most people use all season tires, these newer designed All weather tires will improve the safety a lot comparing the all season tires we used to use. BTW, we have some heavy snow, but the road usually gets cleaned quickly, there are less than 5% times we are running on snow, at least that is the case for me.
@@MadmanLink Congrats, you are one of the many snowflakes that believe (without having a real back up in tests/measurements that their "experience" beats science. Your feelings are trumped by statistics/data etc. Btw, managing fleets of thousands of cars I am invited to all launches of cars, tyres etc. Thus I know first hand what a shitty tyre Michelin CC2 is (even among all-seasons it is only #3). Most of the performant winter tyres are superior to CC2.
agreed, i got Goodyear Vector 4Seasons Gen 3 on my 2022 Outback for this reason, better than the Cross Climate's for wet conditions. so far incredible performance in rain and snow arrived this week, car drives much better, compared to the OEM Bridgestone Alenza summer ones that were factory fitted.

Michelin is the inventor and pioneer of the new generation all-season tires. CC2 is the clearly number 1.

Is it just me that spotted that the video is showing the wrong tread pattern for the Continental All Season 2?
Thankful.
Rocking my CrossClimate 2's
What kind of car? How you like them? Thinking of putting them on my Lexus rx350
@@pillcosby3949 Honda Accord. I've had them for a couple of years and they are great.

Does this include tires for EVs?
Yes. For example the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 is officially EV-compatible.
The brands are also available in Europe but the types not...
weather ready 2 tests better than cc
What about the COOPER Tires ?
Are Kumho Solus 4s ha32 good? I ordered it today

CC2 is a great tire, maybe you should get a set and actually see what they are like. They are great in the snow and dry, and are quiet.

Michelin side walls cracks on all 4 tires with a thousand cracks on the third year of ownership.
