I bought these tires in September, 2020. The tread pattern had me intrigued but unsure. Winter control conventionally comes from a deep tread, soft rubber compound, and lots of sipes. The croosclimate2 does not look like that but it has proven itself so far. The tire resisted hydroplaning during the fall rains and does not show the usual resistance when going through puddles at highway speeds. So far, December, we have had very little snow, 3", but it handled it very well. The freezing rain and ice have been an issue this year and these tires have out-performed my Michelin defenders. I realize that the two are not in the same performance class but I have always had great service from the Defenders, T&H. Crossclimates are an excellent option if you are not going to purchase a dedicated winter tire. We sould be seeing -25°C at Christmas. I don't believe I will be disappointed. ☆ It should also be mentioned that the mountain snowflake symbol, according to my research, signifies a minimum improvement in traction of 10% over all-season tires. This may not sound like alot but it is a minimum of 10%, and the Crossclimate2 are noticeably better than all-seasons. Stay safe.

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 got these as there was an unusually huge amount of rain here in CA for a few weeks and I was hydroplaning with my old tires. After installing them, I got two days in where I got to test their wet traction on the highway and my traction control never engaged (as I get an alert when it does) whereas my old tires could not go above 55mph without traction control engaging at least once. I still need to test their ice and snow traction, but overall I think they are capable of the All Weather advertising Michelin stated. Also, the tires look VERY aesthetically pleasing for a tire, as the aggressive tread looks pretty appealing and sleek. Also noticed that my mpg seemed a little better than my old tires, but not sure if that's just due to my old tires being more worn or the design of the Michelin tires.

Overall these are good tires and I am glad I bought them. First, even though they are “all weather” and usuable year round, I swap them out for dedicated winter tires, so I cannot comment on how they preform in severe winter conditions. However, soon after putting them on this spring (March 2024), we had a few cm’s of snow in the Toronto area. They handled this spring snowfall and resulting messy roads effortlessly. In normal commuter driving around the city and during one long distance highway trip I have taken, they have preformed very well in all aspects, steering, braking, accelerating and ride, whether it is sunny or wet, the road is perfect or bumpy. The one draw back is there is some tread growl. I drive a 2017 Mazda 3, which isn’t a whisper quite car, and the tread noise tends to blend in with the normal Mazda sound in a way that does not make it annoying. However if quiet running is a key priority for you, there are probably other tires that will better meet your needs.

I did not choose these CC2 tires for my new to me 2011 Volvo S60 T6 AWD. I found them noisy on smooth roads. On paved country roads that are not the best of surfaces you can feel and hear most small bumps. They transfer the noise and feel of road irregularities into the Vehicle cabin. We have purchased many sets of Michelins tires throughout my 60 years of driving. I’m 75 now. We buy Volvos and Mercedes and often have 4 to 5 cars licensed and insured ready to go. These CC2 are very new less than 5000km. I might switch them to another of our cars or hope they wear out soon. In the plus side they have good traction when cornering a bit aggressively. I guess I’ll have to wait until it rains to check out their wet characteristics.

The fact that the CrossClimate2 tire can handle snow but still be used all-year long and manage a 60,000 mile warranty was an attractive feature to a pensioner who had never had to make a decision about new tires. It was overwhelming, but the because of the Michelin name and reputation and because the dealer gave the Michelin tire such high praise convinced me they were the way to go. The reality that these tires make me feel safe because that are capable, comfortable and quiet has made me a believer and a fan. And I don't have to worry about changing tires every year is the utmost bonus!

Love these tires. Living ion the west coast of Canada the snowflake means they can stay on all year. Running now on both vehicles because I was tired of swapping out tires. But… on the Tesla I would like an option for the noise foam inclusion or a tech to tell me why it is not just default on all tires??

I have finally found the perfect tire (cross climate 2). Living in the Martime's (Canada) which has the most changing weather patterns these tires deliver kilometer after kilometer on my Subaru Ascent, from heat and rain just confident in these tires getting me home safe and sound.

I drive for Uber-- 50,000+ miles a year in Ohio. With over 11000 trips, these tires have out-performed all expectations. Great traction--even in Ohio winter conditions. Improved gas mileage and much quieter than the equivalent Goodyear's 'best' I had before. I am about to replace my tires again--and I am not looking around--these tires are the best for every day use.

Bought these tires a week ago and it has rained ever since. Traction is great. Had to stop at a light on a hill, the car in front of me spun his tires when the light turned green, I got going right away. Quieter ride than previous OEM tires. Liking these tires so far
