I bought these two months ago and have a couple thousand miles on them. They are far superior to the OEM Pirellis as you don't feel every bump in the road and are much quieter. In addition, the traction has been excellent on wet and dry pavement. Initially, I looked at these, and another brand, and the retailer told me to get these "hands down." He was 100% correct.

These tires are a bit on the pricey side but so far after 8 months of travel I am pleased with the product. After doing a copious amount of research these tires perform as touted by Michelin. Ideal for the climate here in eastern Ontario. I had concerns initially that the tread pattern would cause a noisy tire but thus far road noise is acceptable

So far with few hundred miles the tires are great. Had some ice/snow and they did well. In the past I have had poor luck with Michelin tires in general. But bases on consumer reports ratings I decided to give the Cross Climate 2 a chance. I will report back after 5 thousand miles.

I am disabled and have a wheelchair accessible vehicle. I bought a set of the CrossClimate 2 tires because of the reviews of their winter performance and to eliminate the need for seasonal tire changes. I read about the decreased gas mileage but that didn't seem unreasonable given the tire formulation has to be able to adapt to temperatures year round. The decreased gas mileage was much more extreme than I thought it would be. At this point, I wish I would have bought the Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail, which was my other option.

Was on the fence about purchasing primary winter tires, but the CrossClimate2s solved the concern about the seasonal changing from snow to "regular". Oddly, since I bought them, we winters have been far less severe. On the occasions when there was a snowfall, there was not too much accumulation, so have not had the chance to see how they would fare in deep snow. But they are far superior to all-seasons in terms of traction in slush and partially-frozen pavement. Definite recommendation

Just had these tires put on my 2022 Airstream Atlas as i was going do some driving in the snow. Just drove from South Carolina to Northern Michigan with the last 4 hours in a blizzard. Cant say enough about how the tires performed....Airstream should make them standard

Incredible amounts of snow traction. Initially a bit rough when you buy them, but after about 500 miles or so they feel just fine. We got some heavy snow here and I took them up several steep hills in a FWD Passat, zero issues. incredible stopping distance When you need to come to a stop on snow and ice. They are a bit pricey but consider this, its half the cost of owning a pair of all season and winter tires. I am sold for life.

These are good in snow, rain, even had good luck on ice. But after only a couple of months I’ve noticed they’ve started pulling all the time. I’m constantly having to make small steering adjustments I’ve never had to do before. After looking online, seems like it’s a pretty common problem with these tires. Sorry I took the recommendation of the tire shop now…

When I bought my SUV, first thing I did is go to my tire shop for Michelin tires. I wanted Defenders which I have and love on my truck, but they didn’t come in my new SUV’s size. As we’re in the Pacific Northwest, the shop suggested the Cross Climate 2. It’s been several years of great driving in rain, snow, on gravel roads, lots of mountain roads (where black ice can be unavoidable), and these tires never give me pause. I just brought my car in for the tires to be rotated at 40K mikes, and the shop said my tires have lots of wear left; plus the wear is nice and even. The only downside is that I’ve lost several mpg in fuel efficiency, but when I’m safely driving 4,000 ft mountain passes in driving rain or snow, that seems like a fair trade off.

I travelled yesterday in one of my most adventurous drives along the snowstorm direction from Chicago to Detroit. I94 was a combination of slosh pit and fresh accumulated snow at various stretches. Michigan roads were bad to start with. But this tire (and some driving skills, well tire mainly) kept me going at 65 to 70 MPH in that snow and gave me a lot of confidence to drive over. As some users have noted can't speak of its performance well into its life but these were installed 2 months ago and had very less mileage on them as of writing this review. If you hit a heap of snow as in when changing lanes though - because of the way the tire is grooved to let a lot of rain and snow flow outwards you will see a significant slowdown than other tires. It is good if you are in control and have no vehicle around but bad if you are in a traffic. Just the driver has to account for this change in performance style compared to other tires (Ex: Michelin Defender). Another major downside of this tire is on grooved roads - it becomes wobbly thanks to the non continuous contact patch type tread design but isnt dangerous in anyway. Same goes for snow. And despite that wobbliness, cornering in this is a hoot. If these downsides don't bother you, this tire is brilliant and the tread design aesthetic gets full points from me.
