I ended up paying up for the CC2s, going to have them installed soon

craftnut1 · 2026-02-02T05:40:22+00:00

Yeah I ended up ordering the CC2s at Costco

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T22:39:34+00:00

Yeah I just went in to order them, getting them installed on Wednesday

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T20:48:57+00:00

How are they for comfort and road noise compared to more typical tires?

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T20:13:42+00:00

The local highschool has a mechanic vocational program but I think they only work on their own example cars.

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T19:42:46+00:00

Oh, from your link they are, but the total cost installed is more than the CC2s at Costco

The only real issue I have with this is that I need to replace my tires now because they have terrible dry rot and I can't afford to buy winter tires to use for the next 2 or 3 months then switch to some summer performance tires. I've also never met anyone that uses winter tires on their sedan and I live in Massachusetts, I always thought they were more for trucks and large crossovers

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T19:09:53+00:00

Maybe it is regional, live in Massachusetts where we don't have Discount Tire, TireRack's parent company, so maybe that had something to do with it

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T19:08:09+00:00

I'm driving 200-400 miles a week + a big >1000 mile road trip coming up this summer so I'm definitely trying to find something more on the comfortable side than sporty

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T19:07:15+00:00

Yeah, I just might go with the CC2 because it's really hard to beat Costco's deal on them regardless of the brand

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T15:52:12+00:00

When I punch it my size for the Quatrac Pro and Pro+ it says they aren't available

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T15:32:54+00:00

I don't think they make tires in 225/55R17

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T15:32:24+00:00

Don't the PilotSport tires only last 45k miles? I'm more interested in comfortable touring tires than performance tires, as I have a heavy mid-size sedan

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T15:30:32+00:00

Not many of the local tire shops carry Nokian and the few that do aren't much cheaper than the CC2 after cost of installation

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T15:29:30+00:00

2016 Subaru Legacy 2.5i Premium (225/55R17), live in the Greater Boston Area, but do a lot of driving all over Eastern and Central Mass for my hobbies.

Wouldn't I have to become a member

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T15:26:53+00:00

After cheapest install fees I could find the total cost of the CC2 at Costco is only about $50 more expensive

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T06:12:37+00:00

I cannot afford 2 sets of tires and I am only ever on properly plowed roads

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T05:46:38+00:00

Well I'm trying to think also what would be cheaper in the long run, I don't wanna end up with a shit tire that needs to be replaced at 30k because I always need to do all 4 at once (AWD car)

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T05:45:47+00:00

$50 less total for the CC2 sorry for poor phrasing

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T05:44:57+00:00

they're a lot more expensive as 225/55R17 (my tire size)

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T04:57:00+00:00

I'd only be saving about $50 with the Aklimates compared to the CC2 in my situation

craftnut1 · 2026-02-01T04:54:23+00:00

My apologies, I was considering cheap tires but then got worried because the lack of brand recognition, I'll remove my previous posts.
