Currently the Jetta in my signature has been running on the Generals year 'round since 2015. The car doesn't see that much use so I didn't think it would be worth a dedicated winter/summer set. They still have a lot of tread on them, but they are getting old (2014 date code) and I'm thinking of getting a set of CrossClimate 2's to replace them and make the car a bit nicer to drive in the summer. Of course they're going to be great in the summer compared to the Generals, but how do they compare in the winter? I don't want to sacrifice snow grip as it will be used during the snowiest and coldest days of winter in southern Ontario.
