Loudest Tire Ever

I currently own 5 cars all with Michelin tires and these are by far the loudest tires I've ever had on any of my cars. This is a 2016 VOLVO XC70 the tires have plenty of tread left on then, 7/32 rear, 6/32 front. Have been rotated religiously, front and rear alignment is perfect. The car has been into the Volvo dealer to check for other problems, ie. bad CV joint or wheel bearing. Everything checks out in perfect working order. You can NOT hold a conversation in the car above 60 MPH the towing is so loud. Very disappointed we hoped these tires would be a good replacement for the Hydro Edge we had on previous wagons. My other cars have Pilot A/S 4 and PS4 tires and those are as quiet as a church mouse by comparison.

Excessive pulling

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…

I am blown away..

The title says it all. I run these tires daily and for my rallycross tire setup. They are not tearing up on dirt/gravel at all. I am able to run these for multiple sessions. Being a service advisor and seeing all of the different types of tires quite often.. Michelin has earned me being Michelin Biased when recommending tires.

"Meaty" and Mighty

I bought these for my 2012 Suzuki SX4. After about 3 months later, I just slapped a pair on my 2011 Subaru Legacy. These tires a "meaty" and, while I have lost some MPGs, they are my favorite tire I've had on either car. I've put them to the test several days and nights driving in snow and ice and they haven't let me down yet. I'll be trekking around the mountains of Colorado this summer and see how they do in all the heat.

Amazing tires

I bought these tires 7 years ago for the first time. I have since put them on every vehicle I own as well as tell everyone I know to get them. The are smooth riding, long lasting, all around amazing tire. I will continue to put them on every vehicle I drive. Sometimes people have bad experiences but I can tell you more than likely it’s not the tires fault. I’ve read through some reviews and seems like installer was the problem or people hit something and blame the tire. Driven 106,000 miles

Great onroad - horrible offroad.

Drove 17,000 miles cross country on these tires. They are good for paved roads, but the moment you hit any sort of gravel drivway, dirt road to campground or sandy path they REALLY suck. My car is not an offroad vehicle but on occasion we would have to take a gravel road or drive to an established campsite on dirt or sand these tires have horrible traction. The whole car shifts side to side when breaking. I have not used these in the snow but I don't plan to as they cannot even handle a little sand in the street.

Hurts gas mileage

I bought a set of four of these tires for my 2017 VW Golf. The previous tires were OEM provided Continental ProTrack TX with about 40,000 miles on them. The old tread was getting low but still acceptable for Mass inspections. They also seemed to have developed a flat spot which was noticeable at low and high speeds. The Cross Climate 2 got very good review but in hindsight I don't recall seeing anything about highway mileage. On a trip I regularly make of about 70 miles with 60 highway, I would average 40-42 mpg. Now with these new Cross Climate 2 tires I only get 35-38 mpg. So after paying a top of the line tire I am going to continue to pay more every fill up through loss in gas mileage.

Poor snow handling

Bought a few weeks ago based on recommendations for winter weather handling. Last 4 inch snow, temperatures around 0F where roads tend to not be as slick - sliding on a low speed curve. Kicked sideways by 6-8 inch drifts elsewhere. I’d rate winter traction as poor.

Good, but not Great (yet)

I purchased these to put on my Audi A6 Quattro to replace the stock Continental tires. There definitely is a difference in ride quality and very "grippy", but then again I will say that is probably true of any new set of tires. I've only put about 100 miles on them, mostly highway and residential roads. No rain and no snow yet, so I cannot confirm the claims of performance yet. All dry and speeds ranging from 0 to 75 mph. The ride is smooth, but not as smooth as the Continental but I expected such for such an aggressive tire tread. The one thing that I can say is that these are a little louder on the highway then what I was hoping for hence 4 stars. I thought the accoustic technology would have made them really quiet, but guess not. Maybe after the tread wears down some, they will become more quiet. The other thing I will say is that the tires sometimes go where the grooves in the road go, so you have to be on your toes. Will report back after the snowy season.

Amazing performance upgrade

I'm so happy I bought these tires! I didn't need new tires, but I wanted better snow tires as I had several winter trips planned. The improvement on both dry and wet pavement was remarkable. On dry pavement the car seems to perform twice as well, especially around corners. In rain and snow, braking is better and the car feels more in control. Fuel mileage is about the same, if not better.
