That now only applies to the LE trim.
The XLE trim for 2022 is now just the Woodland edition, which will be my vehicle.
I was assuming it would have 17” wheels but they are actually 18”.
Are there R18 passenger/SUV tires with an aspect ratio greater than 65 out there? Is that what
@Philpug means by “beefy?”
My other thought is to just go with a very good all weather tire and be done with it. Don’t over think things.
@James A reason for this is wacky weather patterns. With clímate change, there are more extremes….and those weird warm spells in winter aren’t great for snow tire rubber. My Outback has separate rims with snows, and it can be great, but….then we get some stupid warm days in February or whatever and then I’m driving on rubber that behave like a pencil eraser, LOL. (I’m keeping the Outback …will be husband’s main car…and once the one set of those tires (winter or “regular” tires) are done, we may switch to good all weathers and be done with it).
When we move in 2023, the 2 top locations we are considering may both have some warm spells in there, but one more than the other.
