Bought these last summer in preparation for this winter. It gave me a few months to also see how these performed as everyday tires. Overall, I am very pleased with these tires. On dry and wet pavement I have received good handling and traction. This morning, where I am (Fort Collins, CO), the city was surprised with a bit of a dump. The forecast was for a trace of snow, but I woke up to 5 inches. The city was caught off guard and had not prepared the streets by pre-applying mag chloride. So the morning commute was through 5 inch snow on the residential streets and tracks and a layer of ice on the main arterials. I had no problem negotiating any of it with these tires with the exception of starting from a standing stop where I got a little bit of spin where it was ice. But then, the 4WD and AWD vehicles had the same thing. Shout out to these drivers, the ones I saw realize that 4WD helps you go, but doesn't help you stop. Everyone was driving for the conditions and I saw no accidents on my 6 mile commute. About the only 'con' I have seen is a reduction of gas mileage. In the city, I've had about a 10% reduction in mileage. On the highway, not so much. But I bought these as an everyday all season tire that will get me through those few storms that Colorado receives. I've been very happy with them and unless Michelin or someone else comes out with a better tire, I will purchase another set when these wear out.

Although I've only had these for a short time and have traveled a relatively short distance by many standards they seem to be at least as good as any other tires I've owned and are far superior to most. They've proven to be especially good at handling conditions that have caused hydroplaning for me with other tires -- torrential blinding rainstorms on stretches of interstate with bad drainage for example.

I had these tires picked out since I saw an indepth breakdown and review by Engineering Explained on YouTube maybe a year before I bought them. I had them installed right before it really started to snow and i couldn't be more satisfied. Few things have the return on investment that this set of tires provides. They shed water impressively well and I could barely slide in the snow if I tried, and I have tried... when and where it wasn't too risky to try, that is. Top notch.

Much better than expected.  Really good in the deep wet snow.   Excellent in wet.  Also good on dry, in fact very good. I run studded Michelin North 4 in winter for our brutal climate (calgary) but I had to leave them on late into the spring as we get late snow and my summers were performance summers and you dont dare go on any snow what so ever.  Three sets is too much for 90 percent of drivers but this saves my studs for the dec / jan feb when I need then.  In fact they are so good on dry that when my performance summers wear out i'll just use these. in my size.  225/40/18    the Cross climate 2 are 90 percent of my pilot sports   The compromise for winter was not as much as I was expecting and the same for summer ,  They are a tiny bit noisy compares to a luxury touring tire.

Bought Cross Climate for Honda CrV 2019 and 5000 miles later had 2 punctures episodes. Both looked and felt the same - knock-knock sound - and screw inside the tire thread. I googled “puncture resistance of Cross Climate tires” and found the same cases. I generally like Michelin products but this one is very disappointing.

I’m on my second set of the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires on my 2016 Ford edge. Living in Maine, these are by far the absolute best tires I’ve had on my vehicle in over 40 years. Unbelievable traction on snow and ice, rain, and water on the roadway. The ride is quiet and highly responsive. I recommend these to anyone.

I am a faithful Michelin user for 30 plus years (driving 64 yrs) on light pickups, full size cars and mid size cars, utility van, have a Yukon XL 4 WD with 264,000 miles that has never had anything other than Michelin. I have never been disappointed with Michelin tires until now. Put a set of Cross Climate 2 on a 2017 Ford Escape at 51,638 miles and the car handles great, like an expensive sports car. However the tires are excessively noisy to the point I thought something was wrong with the car, the wheels or what ever. I paid three different tire shops to evaluate, one of which is my primary tire dealer and they all concluded nothing wrong with the car, it's the tires. It sounds like a pickup with a cheap set of worn out tires which I have owned before. The Cross Climate 2 will easily last 60,000 miles or more on this vehicle which means we must tolerate the noise another minimum 36,940 miles until time for a new set of tires. The tires perform very well as advertised with the exception of the noise. The noise is disappointing and embarrassing, especially when we have guest onboard. Photos upon request.

I bought 4 of these tires on April 19, 2023. The road noise from these tires were not the Michelin quality that I have known for 44 years. I went back to the retailer that I bought them from and had 4 Michelin Defenders replace these CrossClimate2 tires. I am very happy with the Defenders.

This is the first full set of Michelin tires I have ever bought for any of my automobiles. It is really true that, "you get what you pay for". These tires are so quiet and smooth riding compared to any other brand I have had. Even in the rain you can barely hear these tires compared to other. I am very well pleased with the purchase of these Michelin tires, Great Quality, thank you.

These are terrific tires, let me tell you. Dry, wet, snow - conquers them all. I used to have Toyo Celsius All-Weather and the Cross Climate 2 was my 2nd set. If I am just comparing the two, it's not even in the same league. My experience with the Toyo tires was terrible in wet conditions. It just felt so unsafe to drive the car; in fact I rear-ended another car just because it had such bad grip in wet condition. That experience made me reluctant to get another All Weather. Since I had a good experience with Michelin in the past and know they are one of the top brands, I decided to go for it one more time. And I can tell you, the grip in all conditions have been great so far, way way way better than the Toyo. It may seem unfair to compare from my old car, a front wheel drive sedan (Toyo) to new car, AWD SUV (Michelin), but the braking says it all. No matter what car you drive, the braking is the same - or in fact worse for AWDs since they are heavier. With the Michelin on, I have no fear of driving even in wet conditions, and in fact even feel confident. The one minor downside is tires are slightly noisier than the stock for me. But performance justifies this minor issue. In all, these are the "almost-perfect" set of tires for practical use.
