I just got these tires installed and they don’t ride they glide over thr road with very good steering input and soft smooth ride. They are less noisy than the Michelin defenders I had before. Will know more after a few thousand miles but my initial impression were wow. What a smooth ride. Michelin has consistently made good tires and have never disappointed me or left me stranded.

I was averaging 40 to 41 miles per gallon in my RAV4 hybrid Limited with the OEM tires. I just installed a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. These handle better than the OEM and are more surefooted on mountain roads. I read other CrossClimate2 owners were getting lower mpg so I raised the inflation 4 psi over the recommended pressure to see if that would help. Even with the higher pressure I’m now consistently averaging 34.5 MPG. 15% lower. EV’s and hybrid’s get a triple hit from high rolling resistance tires like the CrossClimate 2. First when running on gas only, Second from faster battery drain while using battery power only and a third from a loss in regeneration to recharge the battery when coasting or braking.

I bought the Cross Climate tires when bought my 2021 and took the OEM tires off. I love these tires they do such a great job in rain and snow. I got 81,381 miles on the first set! I think I could have gotten more mileage on the tires, but ran one a nail and went into the sidewall and could not be repaired. I’m very pleased and impressed with these Michelin Cross Climate2 tires! I would recommend them to anyone!

I got these tires last Dec 2022 for the winter and rain in Olympic Peninsula area… we live in a very steep hill 600ft straight up from the main road, and we had the worst winter in history with some Seattle frozen roads on my work days… it worked perfect! I am glad I never skid or slide on those days. Even had this on a winter storm when we had a family emergency drive to British Columbia and with my dual motor Tesla model 3, we never had a problem. I am glad this was recommended by an agent during my tire rotation in 2021, I looked it up and changed last 2022.

I asked Microsoft Co-Pilot what tires I should get to replace the OEM Energy Savers on my 2019 Chevy Bolt Premier and the first recommendation was the CrossClimate 2's. I checked out the references it mentioned and sounded like these were the tires to buy. About 1500 miles in on them and I can't be happier with their performance. Super grippy in the wet!!!

The tires perform very well and I really like them at higher speeds around 60k to 100k but they are a little noisy at lower speeds around 40k when turning. I am going to have a wheel alignment to see if that will help I don't like the warranty requirements because although it is easy for me to rotate my own tire I will have to pay a shop to do it so I have proof they have been rotated

Drove 17,000 miles cross country on these tires. They are good for paved roads, but the moment you hit any sort of gravel drivway, dirt road to campground or sandy path they REALLY suck. My car is not an offroad vehicle but on occasion we would have to take a gravel road or drive to an established campsite on dirt or sand these tires have horrible traction. The whole car shifts side to side when breaking. I have not used these in the snow but I don't plan to as they cannot even handle a little sand in the street.

Like some of you I read in Consumer Reports that the CrossClimate2 is a top-rated all-season tire, and I also watched videos like the one from Engineering Explained on youtube. I also read reviews here. Even after all that, I wondered what these tires would really be like. My previous tire was a Goodyear Eagle LS-2 that was the OEM tire for my 2018 Acura TLX. The Goodyears had 46k miles on them, but they still had plenty of tread left and were only three years old, but I wanted to replaced them because I wasn't happy with their performance in any season—dry, wet, or in snow. And so I was looking for a major performance and safety upgrade to justify the expense of early tire replacement. I'll give details below, but long story short the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires are outstanding so far. I've been driving since 1980, and I've driven most of the major tires brands over the years, and so far these are the best tires I've ever owned. Quietness: This is the one area where the Goodyear Eagle has a small edge, but the CrossClimate2 is still a quiet tire that's good for a luxury car. And actually the CrossClimate2 is much quieter around corners. The Goodyears in moderate cornering would squeal in protest, and make it seem like I was 1970s cop show or something trying to make a dramatic get away. The CC tires are no drama tires in comparison. Comfort: About equal. Both very comfortable. Interestingly the CrossClimate2 seems a bit better at handling speed bumps. MPG: About the same as the Goodyear Eagle. This was a surprise, because I was prepared to give up 2-3 mpg for a better tire, but the mpg seems to be about the same for me. Obviously ymmv. Lateral grip: Wow. Big difference. Where as mentioned the Goodyear Eagle tires were squealing for mercy at moderate speeds around corners, and seeming like they might even lose grip, the Michelin tires are great in comparison. No drama. Excellent road grip in corners. More fun to drive. Major upgrade. Safer. Took some twisting 2-lane country roads I'm quite familiar with, as well as a steeply banked cloverleaf onramp that's a favorite, and it's clear the Michelin tires are on a whole different level. It feels like you're riding on rails with the CrossClimate2. Stopping distance: Didn't try a panic stop, but going downhill on a familiar country road with no one behind me I did a rapid stop from a good speed up to a stop sign, and the CC tires seemed to stop significantly faster and with greater confidence. On center feel: This was a surprise, but perhaps because of the directional V pattern of the tread it seems like the on-center feel for the new tires is much better. I like the road feel. I feel more connected to the car and to the road with the Michelin tires. I've only owned these tires for a few days and about 300 miles so far, and the conditions have been dry, and so I'm not sure at some point I'll get to try out the two probably strongest areas for the CC tires—wet traction and snow traction. Right now I'm feeling confident the tires will live up to expectations. Overall, the CrossClimate2 tires seem like a great upgrade, and well worth the money if you are looking for a premium all-season tire with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating.

I was a little nervous to buy these because Tesla recommends putting the same tires that came with the car. After doing lots of research and taking feedback from other users on the site from current Tesla owners, plus the tire shop I got these from, I decided to go with these tires. As far as road noise and the complaints, I’m confused because if anything I am finding these tires are quieter than the OEM ones that came from Continental. These also look great. Have not driven in the rain or snow yet but my biggest concern was road noise and I can assure you that is a non-issue if anything these might be slightly quieter.

1 month ago, I installed a set of 4 on my 2019 Toyota Highlander. Even just pulling out of the tire lot, I could tell instantly that the ride was incredible. Made a trip from Cincinnati to Myrtle Beach the next day. Highway speeds only reaffirmed that these tires felt like riding on a pillow top mattress! The most comfortable, BEST tires I've ever had, and I've tried ALL high end tires over the years. We did hit the rain storms at highway speeds and these tires did not disappoint! The wet traction was amazing with zero hydroplaning. Of course I drove responsibly in heavy rain but these tires sliced right through heavy highway puddles with ease, with no loss of traction. Vehicle stopping distance has also somehow improved as these tires seem to really stop easier at normal braking. Also at emergency braking... just this week another driver pulled right out in front of me around a curve where I was going about 45mph. I braked hard.. no, I mean hard, like where everything on every seat flies into the floor and your family's faces flash before your eyes. The ABS of course activated, and these tires stopped on a dime! Thank God for Michelin. I've already bought a second set for one of my other vehicles. Thank you Michelin, for making THE best tires I've ever driven on.
