I bought the Cross Climate 2's based on The Tire Rack and Subaru Owners Forums opinions. Most owners of The Subaru Outback replaced their OEM tires with The Cross Climate 2's. I am disappointed that Michelin refuses to offer the updated Cross Climate 3's in the US and we are stuck with the "old" design Cross Climate 2's. I have not driven a great deal over the last three months , perhaps a total of one thousand miles. In my mind it is difficult to give a proper evaluation. My expectations of the tire are better long term durability, adhesion, braking, traction and road noise. So far I have not experienced anything to demonstrate the Cross Climate 2 exceeds the performance of The Vredestein Quatrac 5 that were mounted on my car previously. We shall see.

This is a repeat purchase for me. They are very wonderful looking tires, too. People notice them and compliment how nice they look. (They ask how I like them, too. I LOVE THEM ! ) They wear evenly and I believe they will exceed the 60,0000 mile warranty, again. I especially enjoy how the Michelin Cross Climate 2 grips the road and handles heavy rainfall.

I purchased these to improve traction on our 2014 Honda Odyssey. In rain it had issue on acceleration with slippage and in snow was much worse. After these were put on the slippage was reduced by nearly 90%, in snow the improvement is good but not quite that level. I see no increase in road noise which is great. A bit too early to say anything about wear and durability.

My wife and I have put three quarters of a million miles on Michelin tires over the last ten years and they have been by far the best when it comes to durability and tread life. We have had sets of Goodyear that don’t get half the same miles on them and have had durability and wear issues. I have used the ltx m/s2s and now the defender ltx m/s and my wife is now using the crossclimates. The grip and control on her tires is excellent and my m/s2s got 100k miles on all of them.

I love my tires ... especially since we recently had ice and snow for a week or so. I had no trouble driving in these conditions. However, I haven't received my rebate yet ...even though I bought the tires around the 9th of November and sent in info for rebate.

I replaced my tires on my Kia Telluride as it was time for new tires. This was the best decision to go with these tires. For the rainy season, I never ever feel like my vehicle ever skips or hydroplanes. These tires cut through the water and the track marks where water sits. During the recent winter storm, these tires have worked really well in snow, sleet, and ice, and my Telluride is not AWD. With all the different weather, my kids even notice that the vehicle never changes traction. I have not had any issues with braking in icy or wet conditions. So far, they still look good. I hope they continue to last. Note: I am not a person that writes a lot of reviews; however, I feel like this is a great product.

We’ve had our tires for about a month and a half now and I’ve been in some crummy weather, snow on the roads, freezing rain and we have found our tires to do quite well in poor weather and great on dry roads. We hope to get a lot of mileage out of them. It’s our first set

I've seen and heard a lot of comments about these tires being noisy. I've had a set on my 2013 Dodge Journey SXT (front wheel drive) for 4 years. They were fine at first, no noticeable noise. When I went for my first rotation, the service writer asked how I liked them. I said they were fine and he mentioned that some folks complain of the noise. (side story-they stripped my wheel locks with their impact wrench. Had to go to Dodge dealer, who ended up having to blast them off with a jackhammer!) After all that and the rotation...dang! Noisy!!! Had I not noticed until the guy mentioned it??? I wasn't sure. After a few months of noise, it occurred to me that the ordeal with the wheel locks may have blown my alignment. So I had one done, and like magic, the noise was gone. I've driven out the rest of the tread miles on that set, smooth and quiet. I'm about to go get a new set next weekend. Oh and by the way, they're very impressive in heavy rain. Living in the south, never had a chance to try them on snow. To all the naysayers, I say "make sure your alignment is good before posting negative reviews!"

I put these on my front wheel drive Toyota Sienna and my daughter’s AWD Nissan Murano and they traction in h snow and even sleet has been great! I just had the Toyota out in about 8 inches of snow and it walked right out of my driveway and up the hill. Highly recommend!

After seeing the recommendations of many fellow Subaru Outback owners who use the CrossClimate 2 tires, I did my own research and decided to follow their lead. I could not be happier with these tires. After installation in the late autumn, we experienced two major snowfalls that put them to the test. The traction in slippery highway and side street conditions has been reassuring. The car, already good in such weather, is even better with the Michelins. Braking is assured. The ride is comfortable and quiet. It's still early days, but I am confident I made the right decision to buy the CrossClimate 2.
