Comparison: Firestone Multiseason 2 vs. Michelin CrossClimate 2 vs. GoodYear UltraGrip Performance+ vs. GoodYear UltraGrip Performance 3 vs. Pirelli P Zero Winter 2

Here we take a closer look at two tyres: the Firestone Multiseason 2, manufactured by Firestone and the Michelin CrossClimate 2, made by Michelin.


Starting with the Firestone Multiseason 2, it did not replace any previous models and currently does not have a successor. It is a winter tyre made in Italy and was given an overall evaluation of 60%. While it enjoys a positive reputation for excellent grip on wet and snowy conditions and low rolling resistance, its dry braking and comfort levels are noted as slight drawbacks in multiple tests, such as those conducted by AUTOBILD and ADAC. The tyre has maintained positions from 6th to 22nd among 10 to 37 tyres tested.


On the other hand, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 is a successor to the Michelin CrossClimate and also does not have a succeeding model. This all-rounder is produced in both Italy and Spain and impresses with an overall evaluation of 93%. The Michelin CrossClimate 2 benefits from secure and precise dry and winter driving characteristics, is very fuel-efficient and provides high mileage, making it a top choice. However, it does show minor weaknesses on wet roads. Tested by a series of organizations, it consistently ranked in the top four positions, surpassing its Firestone counterpart in all mutual tests.


Summary:
In general, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 outperforms the Firestone Multiseason 2. While the latter offers very good performance on snowy and wet roads, the former provides overall reliability all year round, except for minor issues on wet roads.


However, the decision will also depend on individual preferences. If you are looking for a winter-specific tyre, then the Firestone Multiseason 2 might be the choice for you. But if you are searching for an allround tyre with a focus on longevity and fuel efficiency, the Michelin CrossClimate 2 emerges as a superior choice.


Overall, the tyres show their strengths and weaknesses in a variety of test situations. Therefore, drivers should make their decisions based on their driving conditions and personal requirements while keeping both the strengths and weaknesses of both tyres in mind.
