Like some of you I read in Consumer Reports that the CrossClimate2 is a top-rated all-season tire, and I also watched videos like the one from Engineering Explained on youtube. I also read reviews here. Even after all that, I wondered what these tires would really be like. My previous tire was a Goodyear Eagle LS-2 that was the OEM tire for my 2018 Acura TLX. The Goodyears had 46k miles on them, but they still had plenty of tread left and were only three years old, but I wanted to replaced them because I wasn't happy with their performance in any season—dry, wet, or in snow. And so I was looking for a major performance and safety upgrade to justify the expense of early tire replacement. I'll give details below, but long story short the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires are outstanding so far. I've been driving since 1980, and I've driven most of the major tires brands over the years, and so far these are the best tires I've ever owned. Quietness: This is the one area where the Goodyear Eagle has a small edge, but the CrossClimate2 is still a quiet tire that's good for a luxury car. And actually the CrossClimate2 is much quieter around corners. The Goodyears in moderate cornering would squeal in protest, and make it seem like I was 1970s cop show or something trying to make a dramatic get away. The CC tires are no drama tires in comparison. Comfort: About equal. Both very comfortable. Interestingly the CrossClimate2 seems a bit better at handling speed bumps. MPG: About the same as the Goodyear Eagle. This was a surprise, because I was prepared to give up 2-3 mpg for a better tire, but the mpg seems to be about the same for me. Obviously ymmv. Lateral grip: Wow. Big difference. Where as mentioned the Goodyear Eagle tires were squealing for mercy at moderate speeds around corners, and seeming like they might even lose grip, the Michelin tires are great in comparison. No drama. Excellent road grip in corners. More fun to drive. Major upgrade. Safer. Took some twisting 2-lane country roads I'm quite familiar with, as well as a steeply banked cloverleaf onramp that's a favorite, and it's clear the Michelin tires are on a whole different level. It feels like you're riding on rails with the CrossClimate2. Stopping distance: Didn't try a panic stop, but going downhill on a familiar country road with no one behind me I did a rapid stop from a good speed up to a stop sign, and the CC tires seemed to stop significantly faster and with greater confidence. On center feel: This was a surprise, but perhaps because of the directional V pattern of the tread it seems like the on-center feel for the new tires is much better. I like the road feel. I feel more connected to the car and to the road with the Michelin tires. I've only owned these tires for a few days and about 300 miles so far, and the conditions have been dry, and so I'm not sure at some point I'll get to try out the two probably strongest areas for the CC tires—wet traction and snow traction. Right now I'm feeling confident the tires will live up to expectations. Overall, the CrossClimate2 tires seem like a great upgrade, and well worth the money if you are looking for a premium all-season tire with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating.

I bought these in September 2023 and was so excited to get them....heck even michelin makes them out to be the greatest thing since sliced bread but there's no mention of rolling resistance and rightfully so. Dropped my MPG so much that I had to return them and just to think this is the second generation with an improvement in rolling resistance I sure would hate to know what the previous generation was like. Michelin perhaps on the 3rd generation you can greatly lower the rolling resistance and than claim them to be the greatest thing since sliced bread.

2016 MALIBU. Trying these for the first time. Only been a couple week. So far like the confident feel. In SW Tenn and don't get much snow, but like the control in heavy rain. Still figuring these tires out but like them so far. Maybe a little noise but not enough to cause concern. These tires seemed to balance well because I am please on the highway at speeds and no vibration. I know they are move for SUV's but they look pretty good on MAL.

I asked Microsoft Co-Pilot what tires I should get to replace the OEM Energy Savers on my 2019 Chevy Bolt Premier and the first recommendation was the CrossClimate 2's. I checked out the references it mentioned and sounded like these were the tires to buy. About 1500 miles in on them and I can't be happier with their performance. Super grippy in the wet!!!

First 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.

Wanted to replace OEM Bridgestone on 2020 Lexus RX350 after the first week but decided to wait 8 months for CrossClimate2 to become available. It was worth the wait, my Lexus now rides like luxury vehicle it is. Ride is much smoother, noticeably quieter and overall more solid feel when making left/right turns. Handles very well and provides confident feeling on very wet roads, hoping for same in the winter. Great tire!

I purchased these tires based on all the high ratings they are receiving. The first issue for me was the load rating being 103 vs 99 and higher speed rating really changes how harsh the vehicle rides. The biggest issue was poor fuel mileage! I track my fuel economy and these tires cut it down between 3 to 5 miles per gallon! Driving them at the recommended tire pressure for the vehicle resulted in the poorest fuel mileage. Adjusting tire pressure higher helped fuel economy slightly and resulted in a harsh ride. After 4000 miles I purchased different tires from a competitor. Very dissatisfied!

I bought these tires from Tire Discounters because they give you a free alignment when you buy a set from them. Crossclimate2 truly do grip the road in wet or dry road. The stopping power is incredible. I hope thee do not get discontinued for years to come. They look aggressive which is why I purchased them and they do deliver in performance.

I bought these tires about a month ago and the quietness over the stock Brdgestone tires reall impressed me, but today in Calgary it rained all day and the amount of stability and no hdroplaning at freeway speeds exceeded my expectations.I can hardly wait to try them out on the snow. The stock tires seemed okay as its a Nissan Murano all wheel drive but honestly I would have upgraded to these tires from new for the extra dollars as I have never knew what a difference great tires are.

I bought these tires based on reviews, particularly in Consumer Reports. They are everything I have come to expect from Michelin tires! Great handling, quiet, smooth ride. I've driven on Michelin tires for years now and these are the best I've ever had.
