I’m using Michelin CrossClimate 2 in size 235/65 R17 on an Audi Q5 quattro (SUV). Overall, the tire performs very well in dry conditions and also handles regular rain without any issues. For everyday driving on wet or dry asphalt, the stability and comfort are good. However, the tire shows serious limitations as soon as there is wet snow or slush on the road, especially around +2°C. Braking performance becomes very weak, and the car tends to slide forward even at low speeds, around 15–30 km/h. In these conditions, the tire simply cannot provide sufficient grip, and stopping distances become dangerously long. Because of this, I was forced to purchase a new set of proper winter tires, as continuing to drive with the CrossClimate 2 in these conditions poses a real risk of an accident and serious danger. A similar issue appears when the road is only slightly damp after light rain during colder autumn/winter days — braking and stopping distances noticeably increase, even when driving slowly. Conclusion: Excellent tire for dry, wet, and mild winter conditions, but not reliable in slush, wet snow, or low temperatures. If you live in an area where wet snow is common, this tire may not be a safe choice during winter.

I bought my tires in the spring of 2023. I’ve been driving on Michelin CrossClimate All-Season tires for a while, and I couldn’t be happier. From day one they transformed the driving experience — the ride is noticeably smooth and confident. I seriously love my tires! Comfort & Ride Quality: The car feels composed and supple over city streets and highway miles. Road noise is low, and bumps are absorbed cleanly, so long drives are far less fatiguing. All‑Weather Performance: These tires handle rain, dry pavement, and light snow with impressive consistency. Wet braking and cornering feel secure — I’ve had no worries even in heavy downpours. In colder temperatures and light winter conditions they maintain traction and stability better than many other all‑season tires I’ve tried. Traction & Handling: Grip is excellent across varied surfaces. Cornering is predictable and responsive, and the tires inspire confidence when accelerating or changing lanes. Traction from stop to go is strong and reliable. Durability & Wear: So far they show even wear and good tread life. Michelin’s build quality gives me confidence they’ll last and remain safe over many miles. Overall Value: These tires deliver a premium blend of comfort, safety, and year‑round versatility. If you want one set that performs well in most conditions without swapping seasonal tires, the CrossClimate All‑Season is a great choice. Summary: Smooth ride, dependable traction in all weather, and confident handling — I love these tires and highly recommend them.

My CC2s have 92,000 miles on them. Current wear pattern is perfect, 4/32 left. A smooth ride still. Road noise is relative to type of road but generally mostly quiet. only issue was a slight hydro plane during moderate rain fall which i experienced from date of purchase. Didn't go over 70mph during rain. 4/5 traction in snowfall. Type of car 2014 bmw wagon 328i xdrive. Michigan /Ohio resident.

We’ve Love The Michelin Cross Climate 2 Tires! The ride, handling, and snow traction are superb. We have them on our RAV4 and Ridgeline vehicles. They are slightly noisy on bare pavement, but with the aggressive tread design and wear, that is to be expected. No more putting on/ removing snow tires/ all season tires. The All Weather Michelin’s are a game changer. Thank you for developing such great tires!

This is my second set of these tires and I couldn’t be happier with them. They have excellent grip in the rain! While they are no specifically snow tires, they are not bad in the snow. They are long wearing and honestly, if my cars factory set camber was adjustable, they would not have worn in the inside. I still had 7/10 tread on all 4 tires after putting on 69,200 miles, except for the very insides. I had wheel alignments done when I rotated them and after discussing this with several mechanics, it’s my car and not the tires. My gas mileage increased by 4-5 mpg.

At 105,000 miles, I needed new tires for my 2019 Toyota Highlander Limited Platinum. I looked at a lot of tire recommendations and reviews. I was looking for something with high marks in snow and ice traction. I was also price-conscious, but wanted the best tire. These were the top-rated tires, according to Consumer Reports. What really convinced me to spend more money on these tires was that in the CR testing, these tires lasted 95,000 miles for excellent durability. Right after having them installed, my wife and I drove over to Madison for a Christmas music concert. As we drove there, snow started falling. I noticed a different sound from these tires that is distinct because of the unique pattern. They felt very comfortable. It was on the way home that they paid for themselves. By the time we left the concert, over 4" of snow had fallen. Our drive home was mainly on 2-lane state highways. I reduced the speed for the environment, and these tires performed perfectly. There were a lot of cars in the ditch on our drive home. By the time we got to the last few miles, the snow was 6-8" deep and unplowed on the county roads that were the last miles to our house. I look that they will be a very veratile tire when we get the the warmer weather and rains.

These tires are incredible. I was very hesitant to put these on my car due to it being sporty and was a little worried once they were installed. After some time driving, I’ve come to fall in love with these tires. My first experience in the snow was eye opening with how well they performed. HIGHLY recommend!

These are excellent tires for our 2020 Subaru Outback Touring XT. Comfortable and quiet ride with low noise and good traction. We have not yet had the opportunity to drive in rain or snow yet to judge wet traction, but dry road performance is excellent. We reviewed test results from Consumer Reports and Tire Rack to help selection.

What are difference tires make! I bought these for my Scion XD, and I notice a difference is most aspects of my driving. I also bought wheels that were slightly wider. The grip is so different. My car is more steady, and doesn't shift at the slightest twist of the steering wheel. I have better traction in cornering, even at low speeds. The ride is smooth and quiet! In the rain, I've had no issues and dont feel.like i have to try to avoid standing water in ruts. I have better traction taking off. These tires make a difference across all aspects of driving and so far in different conditions too! I have more confidence in my car and handling ability! I didn't know new tires would be this impactful!

I live in Minnesota and got to test them they this weekend in a snowstorm. They did fantastic. Never slipped once. They have great acceleration traction. I was worried a bit about my fuel economy with these cause I drive a lot. I seem to be getting a solid 31-33 mpg on the highway which is great.
