What's the reasoning behind bags? Seems pointless to me unless you move wheels around a lot and do not want to scratch them or if they are stored in direct sunlight and you want to protect them from UV.
+1 for CrossClimate. I have CC+ and very happy with them, CC2 is supposed to better in every way. CC+ did better than expected in both summer and winter. Obviously not as good PS in summer and not as good as PA in winter but very good overall, if you do not push them hard they wear considerably slower than PS and slightly slower than PA. They are good enough for single emergency brake in summer but if you push hard for longer time they loose grip and start wearing faster, I guess they heat up too much. If you drive easy good option all year round, if you push hard it's probably better to have PS in summer. I don't think there is much need for Pilot Alpin in South of UK/England and CC will do nicely. It's just a question if you wannt CC all year round or PS in summer and CC in winter.
There have been some bad feedback for CC as well but it seems it's mostly from low profile 45 or less tyres and 45 + are more positive. I have 235/55R18 and they have been very good apart from when pushed hard in summer
