Puncture magnet

Bought Cross Climate for Honda CrV 2019 and 5000 miles later had 2 punctures episodes. Both looked and felt the same - knock-knock sound - and screw inside the tire thread. I googled “puncture resistance of Cross Climate tires” and found the same cases. I generally like Michelin products but this one is very disappointing.

Alex, it's unfortunate that you had 2 tires that were damaged by screws. Were the tires repairable? Did you purchase road hazard coverage form the retailer? If you still have the damaged tires, give us a call at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST Mon-Fri to further discuss this issue.

Tired of the "Tire Mountain" in my garage

Third car I have switched to CC2s instead of having 2 sets of tires for each car. Although arguably not as good as dedicated snow tires in deep snow, these tires have superior wet/slush traction. Resist hydroplaning better than any tire I've used in 35+ years of driving. If the snow is "too deep" for these, maybe you should have stayed home. Super quiet, smooth, and fuel mileage is on par with "2 season" tires. Better fuel mileage than dedicated snows. Only down side is they tend to pick up/hold a lot of stones in the tread. You'll want some stone protection on any exposed metal body parts directly behind the wheels.

Great onroad - horrible offroad.

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.

Great tires - Answers to common complaints!

People seem to be getting confused about a couple points: 1. Wandering / Poor tracking: this tends to happen with untrained staff mounting all four tires on the wheels one direction, which makes directional tread patterns like these backwards on one side of the car, which results in poor tracking and wandering. I have had tire shops do this, and it feels exactly how some "disappointed" reviewers are describing their performance. 2. Poor MPG: Michelin has replied here to a bunch of people that fresh tire compounds result in lower mpg at first. That's not untrue necessarily, but so far people have ignored that new tires are physically larger than worn tires, even at the same nominal size. The worn tires are giving artificially high MPG figures (they aren't going as far as the odometer says), and the new ones are often giving artificially low figures (going farther than the odometer says, since they are often set for an average tire age), so jumping from worn to new makes it falsely appear that there is a significant MPG difference. So, don't get it twisted! These are great tires, especially in wet environments. Even at double the price of standard "used car grade" tires, I bought two more sets of these, so every car would be as safe and comfortable. I only wish they came in a light truck load rating so I could feel better taking them on forest roads.

Great performance and reliability!

I purchased my Michelin CrossClimate2 Tires a couple months ago and I am extremely pleased with these tires. I have used many Michelin tires in the past on many of my family vehicles but this is my first car with the new CrossClimate2 tires. I have recommended Michelin tires to other family members and plan to purchase Michelin tires for other cars when needed in 2022.

Great handling wet or dry

I bought these for my Accord because I have a set on my HR-V. I wanted a tire that was excellent in rain and on dry pavement. The handling is excellent. We had several inches of rain the other day and they handled excellent. They are much quieter than I expected but road noise is somewhat louder than Defender tires.

Saved my life

I don't usually do these reviews, but I need to on this one. These tires saved my life today. Someone cut me off in the high-speed lane at 75 mph, causing me to swerve and almost lose control of my vehicle. The AWD of my car adjusted the power to all the tires, but I would have rolled the car on a lesser tire. These things stuck to the road like glue. Thank you, Michelin!

Love the Mud & Snow rating

I bought these tires 10 months ago for my Toyota Sienna van. They give the ride of conventional all-season radials, yet have an M&S rating so that I am legal in the winter if I go out of town to higher altitudes in the winter. A great balance/compromise if you have similar needs.

Love Them So Far

I bought a set of the Michelin Cross Climate 2 Luxury Performance Touring Tires, size 235/55R18 100H BSW for my Toyota RAV4. They have a 60,000 mile warranty. I've put just over 3,500 miles on these tires, but I'm love them so far. They are much smoother and a quieter ride than my previous tires. Love them so far!

Will absolutely buy again

Bought these in 2021 after a lot of research and now 4 years later I can absolutely recommend them. I have 37,000 miles on them, 7/32nds tread remaining from the original 10/32nds (I believe), and these tires are the best car tires I have owned in my 51 years of driving. Amazing wet and dry traction, superb ride, and really quiet. We go to the north GA mountains a lot and the twisties even wet are no match for these tires. My wifes Lexus handles like a sports car and the ride comfort is great. I've seen a few reviews complaining of noise and sidewall splitting and unless they are abusing the tires and not keeping them properly inflated, they must be talking about other tires. I will replace these with another set without hesitation if they ever wear out! Seriously, the best car tire I have ever bought. Oh and I think they look cool as can be too!
