We've had both of these tires on our small fleet, and some others also, but not anymore, the Good Years has proven to be so much better than any of the others, we only buy Good Years now, save a lot of money, Triple Tread is the very best, we have a 125,000 miles on a set on our Impala.
Good review. I have the Goodyear tires on my 2013 Avalon Limited. I need the better traction in the sloppy and wet snow conditions and yes they improved the softness of the ride. Michelin makes great tires for a great price. Worth $50 more per tire? Up to you. Wouldn't be nice if you could test drive tires? The same tire on different cars can be very different. Assuming same wheel size, wheel base, drivetrain and weight distribution can give different results. I know - no right answer.
Well, I have had good results with Goodyears "best" all season tires. ie. Triple Treads. I was skeptical about the asymmetrical tread patterns but they work surprisingly well. Not only asymmetrical but all weather tires. New category for tires. I live in the rust belt and have been really happy with them + $50 less a tire. They helped with the ride and have also have better tread life without giving up grip. They work for me and my car. You can get whatever fits your needs.@@Maybaby1959
Where did you find the EPA ratings for fuel mileage? I put the CrossClimate 2s on my Camry Hybrid and they cut my average fuel economy by 8 mpg's. I've been looking for rolling resistance numbers for years. I know the tire manufacturers test them for this, but they never publish the findings. Or do they? I even emailed Michelin and asked them if they had numbers for this and how the CC2's compared to their "Energy" low rolling resistance tire. They assured me "The CrossClimate 2 is a low rolling resistance tire." I thought great! I put a set on and immediately lost 8 mpg. I thought maybe they just needed to break in. Well, slowly but surely, after 60,000 miles, my car is now only getting 2 mpg less than it was prior to the tire change. But it took that long to slowly get there.
Since you cannot afford a human narrator but choose to use one of the crappiest robo (computer) voices on the internet, you cannot afford to do the research to give us good information. Respect your viewers. Serious viewers do not want a computer voice giving them cheap advice.
FYI - Any of those that review tires All Season or All Weather in very cold snow are garbage. You can use summer tires in that hard crunch snow and still get around.
@@tomtalker2000 Yumpin did say "still get around"... Likely true... Yet, didn't say how well, or if with assistance of a Tow Vehicle. A person can leave the house wearing nothing on their feet, just socks, or terrain/weather specific shoes (or not, a "basic" sneaker or "dress" shoe might work, but soak your feet in the wet and have little to no useful traction if trying to climb/descend a hill in many cases)

Very helpful comparsion video to me. Thanks a lot.

Then why did you get Goodyears when Michelin is better?

I have Cross Climate 2 on my AWD and Goodyear Weather Ready on my car.

The Good Year is better tire.
265/R17 of Goodyear how much
And Goodyear wear out fast for what you pay
No, they don't, they last the longest.
Price per tire is far from accurate
They cost the same
No they don’t
Who won the game?

Ah...no you can't my friend. I don't know where you got your info from. Much less where you live in terms of varying weather conditions.
