Initial Tire Review: Michelin CrossClimate 2

Описание: In this episode, I go over the tires that I recently put on the Saturn Astra. Living up in Minnesota, we get a lot of cold days and when it snows, the snow and later the ice tend to hang around for quite some time. As a tech different people run different winter tire setups with some people having 2 sets of rims and a normal tire on one set with winter tires on another set. Other people run All-Season tires year round and drive a little more cautiously in bad weather. Then there's some people who run whatever they can afford on their cars.

I think the Michelin CrossClimate 2 helps anyone that only runs 1 set of wheels and tires have slightly better snowy grip without giving up All-Season performance and remaining a quiet and comfortable ride. Jump points are as follows:

Really looking forward to a "Pushed to the limit video"
Plenty of lessons learned, as this video took about 3 months to fully shoot with the initial purchase and the sound tests and then waiting for some snow, I really need to work on flagging what videos go where.
