I know that this is not the right A/S tire for a vehicle with this performance. If I wasn't going to live in an area that gets snow I'd throw a set of PS4 SUV tires on this thing but I can't. The CC2's are such a good all around A/S that I decided to get those instead of anything else. Has anybody on here run a set of these on their ST? If so what were your thoughts?

Do they even make a size and weight rating for these 2 ton beasts? I heard great things about the CC2.

According to Tire Rack CC2's are not rated for the ST. I have a set of Pirelli Scorpion Weather Actives on the wifes Macan and she loves them so I was thinking of going with those. Also read the Vredestien Quatrac Pro's are great tires.

I know its an old post but I just got the CC2's on and let me tell ya, I think they work great up here in NH. We just had 6-8 inches dumped on us last week and the explorer was a tank going through un-plowed roads (rt 101)

That's awesome to hear. I just recently set up a replacement for the CC2's next week. Hopefully before we get the snow here in the eastern Oklahoma area!

The real test will be tomorrow for us here we are supposed to get a little snow mixed with rain then ice!

That's what I heard too. I'm in Muskogee and we got flurries but nothing stuck today. Supposedly heavy next week though. Weirdly enough I have nearly bald Pilot Sport AS4's on the front and slightly less bald on the rear but have yet to experience any tire slippage.

Wow that's impressive! I had Lionharts on mine that i thought would be fine for the mild winter we have been having, boy was I wrong haha. Im going to put them back on this spring though.
