- 5 out of 5 stars review1/25/2026I 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!
Great in Snow
GreenvirgoOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/15/2023I purchased four Cross climate 2 tires 5 months ago. (I have driven on all major brands of tires during my sixty-one years of driving) The Michelin Cross Climate 2 are by far and away the best tire as far as handling, wear, - and for me- snow traction,
unbiased opinion
Experience 2Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/26/2024Second set I've purchased. First set still performs very well after three years and 50k miles on a Highlander. This set replaced Bridgestones which came new on the RX350. Those were noisy and did not ride well from day one. These CrossClimates are amazing and made the vehicle ride and sound sooo much better.
Great ride! Low Noise!
C12daveOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/28/2023I purchased these ties on reviews. Some reviews stated that their Auto lost gas mileage. We own a 2020 Cadillac XT-5, V-6 310 HP, AWD. Before on the original tires we where getting 19.7 to 20.3 MPH. Highway mileage was the most 24.5. With these new CrossClimate2, the gas mileage increased to almost 23 MPG in the city and not quite 27 Highway. Only 1 time we received 34 MPG when we used the cruse control. The tire are quite, smooth riding and you do not hear any noise and good stopping in rain. Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
Great ride with these tires
GaryOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/27/2026I just had 4 Cross track 2 tires installed on my 2023 RAV4 FWD these by far are the best tires I've ever had the OEM were bad had no traction in snow at all. We just got 12" of snow and these tires just track right thru and stop great in the snow I tell everone just how great these tires are.
Great snow traction
KL2023Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 1 out of 5 stars review4/20/2023I bought 4 of these tires on April 19, 2023. The road noise from these tires were not the Michelin quality that I have known for 44 years. I went back to the retailer that I bought them from and had 4 Michelin Defenders replace these CrossClimate2 tires. I am very happy with the Defenders.
Road Noise
Senior OneOriginally posted onmichelinman.comConsumer Care MIC USSenior One, glad to read that this was resolved. Hope you enjoy your new tires. - 5 out of 5 stars review1/19/2026I 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.
Great rain traction improvement
RonnjOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/22/2026After 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.
Best Tires for my Subie
MITIMAN2026Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/10/2026I 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.Snicket 35Originally posted onmichelinman.com
- 4 out of 5 stars review11/29/2022I replaced my Michelin Primacys to give these a try. I live in upstate New York where we get harsh winters. So far I am satisfied, I feel more confident on the road, however a little more road noise and slight steering wheel feel which is expected with such an aggressive thread. I believe these tires are second to none when it comes to an all season tire with the snow factor included.
Ride with confidence
Francis JOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review2/16/2026I put these tires on my 2023 Honda Pilot, and overall they've been impressive. Their all‑weather capability is excellent, and they've been especially strong in snow—confident traction, stable handling, and exactly the kind of winter performance I was hoping for. Road noise is also pleasantly low, even at highway speeds, which makes daily driving more comfortable. The one drawback has been fuel economy. I'm seeing about a 5‑MPG drop compared to my previous tires, which is a pretty significant difference. I'm hoping mileage improves once the weather warms up, but for now it's definitely the trade‑off. Despite the hit to fuel efficiency, I'm happy with how these tires perform overall. If winter traction and quiet ride quality are your priori...
Great tires, but noticeable MPG drop
Sta24Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/17/2026We chose the CrossClimate2 tires because they were very highly rated by Consumer Reports where they highlighted the performance, traction and durability. We have now owned and driven on these tires for nine months and could not be happier with them. We get a lot of different weather with occasional very heavy rainfall and even snowfall over a foot at times. These tires perform extremely well in all occasions and we are particularly impressed with the traction of these tire in snow and heavy rainfall. In fact, when the factory tires have worn out on our new Honda Ridgeline truck, we will be replacing them with the CrossClimate2's.
Perfect replacement tires for our 2023 Honda CRV
NWA WILSONOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/19/2023First 2,000 miles my fuel mileage dipped from 41mpg to 38mpg (hybrid) but once they wore in they have been the most sure footed and quiet tires I've ever driven. I commute 120miles per day and currently have 43,000 miles on them. Still silent and trouble free. Wet/rain and snow braking and handling and overall performance makes this tire by far the best car tire on the market.
Incredible design
Long distance commuterOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review3/6/2026Just got the crossclimate 2 tires yesterday. Handling and the ride is amazing. The noise is the same as my old worn out tires on asphalt sounds like mudding tires. The balance out is the performance outweighs the sounds. They ar not quiet tires by any means. However ride and handling is far superior. Come on Michelin make the cross climates quiet down without sacrificing performance.
Performance vs noise
Cajunguy82Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review6/19/2023I 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.
Expectations exceeded on Cross Climate 2
Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/19/2026I'll never buy another type of tire again. Absolutely love these, I just swapped out my old, worn tires for these. When I left the shop, I couldn't believe driving could feel as good as it does now. The braking feels safer, and I feel like I could drive in 2 feet of snow if I had to. So happy!
Safer than ever!
aubzxxOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/9/2024I drive for Uber-- 50,000+ miles a year in Ohio. With over 11000 trips, these tires have out-performed all expectations. Great traction--even in Ohio winter conditions. Improved gas mileage and much quieter than the equivalent Goodyear's 'best' I had before. I am about to replace my tires again--and I am not looking around--these tires are the best for every day use.
The best for the everyday grind.
chipdog902Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/22/2023I 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.

JamesOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/20/2026We'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
Go Michelin man
JimmerOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/8/2024Bought new for my Subaru Outback after extensive research. Met my expectations and more when driving in snow on Donner Summit in Tahoe in blizzard. Highway shut down while cars were stuck, spinning out, not equipped, I drove with confidence and safely made it to my destination. Great tire!
