Overall, good 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.

4 - Cross Climate 2 Tires!! 235 x 50R 18

Bought these 6 months ago and they are excellent tires! Best riding tire so far on this vehicle and I replaced a set of Michelin Pilots that were on before! Better dry road handling and excellent wet road handling. Have not yet experienced winter as of yet!

Poor fuel economy!

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!

Briguy, we are sorry to hear that the fuel efficiency did not meet your expectations. When new tires are installed on a vehicle the fuel efficiency will typically experience an initial drop compared with the worn tires that were removed. Over the life of a set of tires fuel savings will normally become evident.

Expectations exceeded on Cross Climate 2

I purchased my Cross Climate 2 tires less than a month ago and already have better than 5000 miles on the tires. I can best sum them up by saying “Wow” these are great tires! Cosmetically they look like an all season SUV tire but I’ve put them on a VW Golf and have to say they have transformed my car. Smooth, quiet, and simply phenomenal grip with no reduction in mileage from my old tires. To say my expectation was exceeded is almost an understatement.

Look awesome and perform well

I bought these tires for my MKX last January (2021) and was immediately satisfied with the way they drove through snow and slush along with how they handled ice. I just bought an Aviator with size 275/40R22 and you don't make them yet. Please have them ready for me next winter.

North Dakota winter

I got these tires in spring of 2021. I commute and put 25,000 miles on a year. Great ride, low noise on highway. First snow was yesterday so got to see how they do. Very good! They are on a 2017 fusion front wheel drive. If they pass North Dakota weather, they’re good for any one reading this. I didn’t see a drop in mileage like so note. And commuting that matters to me.buy them!

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.

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

Amazing all season tires

I purchased the CrossClimat SUV,s for my Tesla Model X and was blown away at how awesome the tires performed in a snow storm last Spring. My wife purchased a Tesla model S and noticed she didn't have the same surefooted feeling that she had with my Model X in the snow. Last month I decided to buy the CrossClimate 2's for the Model S and could hardly believe how much better they are than my tires. By better I mean they are much quieter than the CrossClimate SUV,s and they feel like they roll with less effort as well. I like these tires so much I'm going to change from having wider tires and wheels on the rear to the same size as the front so that I can run the CrossClimate 2,s on my Model X as well.

A tire for the serious worker.

I drive a Ram Promaster City Front Wheel Drive minivan for a large company in the photostatic industry. The stock tires that came on it, were a joke, even on a small patch of ice. So I shopped around for an all-season tire, since my company + leasing company will not allow snow tires. Imperative, in my book (ex tire-jock), is that they had the 3 Mountain Peak / Snowflake symbol, because I have put such tires on my personal vehicles, and never looked back. Well, I've got these about a month ago, and have been over Powder River Pass at least twice on packed snow, and ice... and have busted drifts out on I-25 several times to get to my tasks, and they have not failed to provide unparalleled traction, and give me a lot more confidence in my work vehicle. I will be switching to these tires on my other vehicles, as soon as their current tires wear out.
