Performance winter tires tested. The CC2 is included in the test as the benchmark all season tire and it's quite interesting how well it holds up compared to performance winters. All the performance winters are worse in the wet and dry than the CC2 and only about equal in the snow.
Either performance winters are no longer worth it or there's going to be a big change in how performance winters work in the next generation (merging all weather capabilities into them).

Been rolling around on my X-Ice 3’s now for a few weeks. My winters are 18’s as opposed to my regular tires on 17’s
I can’t believe how rough of a ride the winters are. The winters are definitely lower profile but it’s still gotta be at least 5/8 or more of the summer tires, but hitting pot holes etc. it feels like hitting the rim directly it’s so hard
Don’t know how people drive around with the little rubber band tires must be so uncomfortable

Oh sorry might have misunderstood, wet from half way up on the road to base. The snow seemed to be actually ok. I wasn't there to board but rather bringing my son for lessons.
I saw you said R1R I thought you were going up on R comps.

Making the argument that crossclimate or other all-weather tires are all you need for your daily in the lower mainland

I saw you said R1R I thought you were going up on R comps. | No I know what you mean, but like I posted above about Whistler, they are astronomically below normal snowpack so far this season. I was up last Tuesday. Almost nothing is open, nothing in the forecast. If it turns around drastically we MAY have 2 decent months.
