I've had these on my 2014 Avalon Limited for about a year now. I got them after the surprise snowstorm we had because I saw they were fine in the summer, too. These are honestly the best tires I've ever had. I've always wanted a quieter tire, especially on highway sections where they've put down a layer of gravel over tar, making it very noisy to drive on. There's still some noise, of course, but this is the first tire that has ever made a noticeable difference. I've had no issues with how the car handles or anything. I had to dodge a surprise armadillo on the road recently and had to make a pretty aggressive maneuver to steer around him. My back end only lost traction for a fraction of a second and my steering remained solid. I also noticed a big difference in how well these tires cut through those water ruts that are on some highways. There's another instance where I've seen a big difference with these tires. There's far less resistance when you drive along those extended patches of road water. Unfortunately, we didn't get any snow or sleet this past winter, so there's nothing I can say right now about how well they do there. I waited through the whole winter to write this review, but I decided to go ahead and post it without the winter report.

We bought our first set of these approximately 3.5 years ago. We have been thrilled with them. They provide great traction, they are not noisy, and the tread has worn very well. Unfortunately, the tread separated on 3 of the 4 of them recently. They had 33,000 miles on them. The tread was only half worn so we received 50% towards the purchase of another set. Still very pleased with the tires. Hopefully these ones won't separate.

I bought these for my 2011 Kia Sorento with 18" tires and they are amazing! Going through puddles and heavy water areas has less hydroplaning if any at all and the car doesn't slow down as much. The handling through turns in both wet and dry situations is awesome and I feel very secure in the handling of my vehicle as I always have if not more now. My only complaint is that they don't offer these in a 255/50-20 which is the size I need for my Ford Explorer XLT. I'm forced to buy a different tire. Hopefully they'll have a better range of sizes when i'm ready to replace those.

I live on Vancouver Island were we only saw about 4 dumps of wet snow this year but heavy rains monthly. I was very impressed with the handling in both. The car has never hydro planed and the traction is superb in the snow. One morning I drove down a very steep hill that had not been sanded and covered in ice and snow to a friends place on the ocean. I then had to return up his steep driveway covered in a foot of snow, stop and await his gate to open. I then was able to start up without the tires loosing traction. I then drove up this same icy snow covered hill with no slippage. The tires are very quite and the only negative I have found is that my fuel economy is down slightly from my previous tires, a small price to pay considering my peace of mind I get from this purchase. I strongly recommend these tires.

Fitted these to an AWD hatchback, mostly driving in the Bay Area with frequent ski trips to Tahoe/mammoth during the winter. These tires exceeded all winter driving expectations, pushing through blizzards and snow covered roads as if a true winter tire, through record snowfall seasons. Matched with a basic awd system, these tires inspired snow driving confidence, never once having to chain up and driving through roads covered in multiple inches of snow. They also performed well during the summer and wet. If you’re looking for a single tire solution for snow/summer and switching tires doesn’t make sense for you, this is your tire.

I am a person that has been told I am OCD over my tires, and I telll my mechanic I am picky when it comes to tires. Having said that, I have put on about 20,000 miles on my CrossClimate 2’s that I made my mechanic go and find and I would buy these again in a heartbeat. Even as they age, the traction and confidence in wet are remarkable almost as if there is no rain or snow below you. Stopping distance is terrific with these tires and they ride like a dream! The only cons that I’ve found are a 3-5% reduction in mpg (I have an HEV) and one tire continuously looses about 5psi 2-6 weeks.

Purchased in Sept 2021. Very nice ride for 2019 Forester. Tires have howling noise at 25-35 mph then noise goes away with deeper tread noise. Dealer insists it is tires and not car. Overall very happy except for the around town howling noise. Have same tires on another 2015 Forester and noise is barely audible.

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.

I bought these set of tires after having the original CrossClimate tires on my e-Golf. I had them installed by a certified Michelin dealer, balanced, and did an alignment. Unfortunately, these tires have a slight vibration at 70+ MPH. I took the car back to the original place where I had them installed and they confirmed that the balancing was correct. I then took it to a second independent tire store to have them double check the balancing with Road Force equipment and they also said it was correct. I ended up using the Michelin 60-day Satisfaction Guarantee to get them replaced with a set of Michelin Sport Pilot A/S.

I am beyond happy with these tires. I purchased my SUV slightly used and the previous owner put Michelin CrossClimate 2 directional tires on right before he traded it in. I’ve had my vehicle for 2 years and am constantly impressed by them. Fantastic traction and performance in our Canadian winter even on ice. Plows through deep heavy snow like nobody’s business. And in the summer and rain they are good as well, also great performance on gravel roads (although I’m not sure of the wear if you were to do them regularly). When I trade in this one, I will be purchasing a set for my new ride, VERY good tires-BUY THEM!!!
