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.

Expectations exceeded on Cross Climate 2

I purchased my Cross Climate 2 tires less than a month ago and already have better than 5000 miles on the tires. I can best sum them up by saying “Wow” these are great tires! Cosmetically they look like an all season SUV tire but I’ve put them on a VW Golf and have to say they have transformed my car. Smooth, quiet, and simply phenomenal grip with no reduction in mileage from my old tires. To say my expectation was exceeded is almost an understatement.

2017 Chevy Volt

Just put a set of 4, 215/50R17/XL 95V, on last week. Driven less then a 100 mile so far. The volt had the OE on for just under 55,000 and one had a slow leak. Got the CrossClimate®2 and right from the parking lot I noticed the the tires gave the car a tighter grip on the road, bumps seamed to be less noticeable. The tires do not roll as well as the OE and a little more tire noise, like a whine. With no engine noise to cover it up, it was expected. The car handles the hills and curves very well. My wife feel more assured that car is not going off the road and will take the curves. Had to add more air and that made the Volt cost better also did not notice any change in the handling.

CrossClimate 2 was a fantastic choice

Just got these this week for my 2019 Lexus ES and WOW, what a difference. These tire track like I'm on rails. Steering feedback is greatly improved and the drive is much improved. With the full depth tread, I'm expecting no change in ride quality as they wear. Very glad I chose these.

Very impressed

Much better than expected.  Really good in the deep wet snow.   Excellent in wet.  Also good on dry, in fact very good. I run studded Michelin North 4 in winter for our brutal climate (calgary) but I had to leave them on late into the spring as we get late snow and my summers were performance summers and you dont dare go on any snow what so ever.  Three sets is too much for 90 percent of drivers but this saves my studs for the dec / jan feb when I need then.  In fact they are so good on dry that when my performance summers wear out i'll just use these. in my size.  225/40/18    the Cross climate 2 are 90 percent of my pilot sports   The compromise for winter was not as much as I was expecting and the same for summer ,  They are a tiny bit noisy compares to a luxury touring tire.

NOISY!! So much want to trash these tires!

I bought these because of the Consumer Reports ratings and I am very disappointed. The road noise regardless of speeds is unbearable. The road noise is comparable to that of driving with mud tires, Which if I were driving with mud tires I would expect the noise but not on car road tires.

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.

Smooth Ride

Tire was losing air .Employee showed me that my tires had some dry rot. Personally I did not think the tires looked bad. But winter was coming around the bend so I thought maybe I should replace them. Well, what a much smoother ride. So happy I had gotten them.

Luxury ride

Wanted to replace OEM Bridgestone on 2020 Lexus RX350 after the first week but decided to wait 8 months for CrossClimate2 to become available. It was worth the wait, my Lexus now rides like luxury vehicle it is. Ride is much smoother, noticeably quieter and overall more solid feel when making left/right turns. Handles very well and provides confident feeling on very wet roads, hoping for same in the winter. Great tire!
