Great tire! Our granddaughter has the vehicle now. But I miss the original Defender. They were a great tire. Although I think the CrossClimate 2 may be a great tire, it simply cannot replace the original defender for longevity. But we loved them and I will soon replace the OEM Pirelli tires on our replacement vehicle with the CC2!

I drive a Ram Promaster City Front Wheel Drive minivan for a large company in the photostatic industry. The stock tires that came on it, were a joke, even on a small patch of ice. So I shopped around for an all-season tire, since my company + leasing company will not allow snow tires. Imperative, in my book (ex tire-jock), is that they had the 3 Mountain Peak / Snowflake symbol, because I have put such tires on my personal vehicles, and never looked back. Well, I've got these about a month ago, and have been over Powder River Pass at least twice on packed snow, and ice... and have busted drifts out on I-25 several times to get to my tasks, and they have not failed to provide unparalleled traction, and give me a lot more confidence in my work vehicle. I will be switching to these tires on my other vehicles, as soon as their current tires wear out.

I purchased these tires based on all the high ratings they are receiving. The first issue for me was the load rating being 103 vs 99 and higher speed rating really changes how harsh the vehicle rides. The biggest issue was poor fuel mileage! I track my fuel economy and these tires cut it down between 3 to 5 miles per gallon! Driving them at the recommended tire pressure for the vehicle resulted in the poorest fuel mileage. Adjusting tire pressure higher helped fuel economy slightly and resulted in a harsh ride. After 4000 miles I purchased different tires from a competitor. Very dissatisfied!

I bought the H speed rated instead of the V hoping to get a softer ride. The 19 rims on the 2015 Lexus RX 350 don't ride very well. Impressive stopping ability. I mean impressive. Good grip on wet roads. Handles well. Fuel mileage dropped 2mpg. After 18 months I'm pleased with the wear. Very smooth ride on smooth surfaces. Harsh on really bad roads. One tire made an awful noise constantly. Warranty replacement fixed that problem. Almost silent on smooth roads. These tires must be difficult to manufacture. Enormous differences from tire to tire in the amount of wheel weights needed to get them balanced. I've never had a set of tires that needed this many wheel weights. Correctly balanced the car is smooth at 85 MPH. Outside of the fuel mileage drop they are outstanding tires.

TWO THUMBS WAY UP!!! The Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires have exceeded my high expectations! The most notable, unexpected feature is a much smoother, controlled driving experience on my 2020 Acura MDX/AWD. I'm really impressed and pleased with my purchase. On a side note, the tire's really do enhance the look of the car (WOW!).

This is the first full set of Michelin tires I have ever bought for any of my automobiles. It is really true that, "you get what you pay for". These tires are so quiet and smooth riding compared to any other brand I have had. Even in the rain you can barely hear these tires compared to other. I am very well pleased with the purchase of these Michelin tires, Great Quality, thank you.

Research, reviews and tests were mixed on the cross climate 2 but I bought them anyway. They are not the worst tires I have ever had but not anything like the Yokahama Parada Spec X I took off either. They are good in rain, haven't driven in snow yet but they are rated high for snow but my issues with this tire is on dry tar. No changes to vehicle except new tires. The car wants to wonder now. It is difficult to keep it going straight at any speed. The car feels squishy on dry tar now. Doesn't feel stable anymore. I don't track my mileage but the car seems to drag now so I suspect the mileage decrease complaints are probably correct. The tires do make noise at times. Mainly on dry tar with the windows open and you are stepping on the gas. You must over inflate these tires to increase the stability. I run 40 psi in front for better steering but it helps only slightly and that may wear them out prematurely. The bottom line is that there are a lot of choices in tires no need to put up with the negatives of these tires.

40,000 miles in and only down to 7/32 from the 10/32 new. These are great in all weather and is impressive in snow. I'm talking about up hill on a side of a mountain pushing snow with your bumper good. I recommend these to everyone and they are going on everything that we have. I didn't notice any extra noise from the stock all seasons. We have sold all our snow tires and rims.

Had the MXMs one tire got shredded by a pothole and I decided to get whole new set of tires, got the CrossClimate2 and man do these tires perform on hot highway pavement, keeps you firmly planted especially on cornering,excellent handling in the rain also .I live in a 4 seasons climate and looking forward to testing them.out on the snow a little more noisy tham the MXMs but easy tradeoff for the grip and traction they look awesomealso . Great tires !

Can't say enough about these tires. They are as good in 3-season as the 3-seasons I ran on all my cars for the past 15 years, and as good in winter as the non-stud snows I've used on the Accord for 3 years. Fantastic in rain. Maybe 1-2 mpg cost, but a small price to pay for not having to own and swap 2 sets of rubber.
