- 5 out of 5 stars review2/8/2024Have been driving for only two days on my 2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid and see the difference right away. Very smooth and quiet ride. Don’t feel potholes at all comparing to my previous MICHELIN Premier LTX. Completely blown away by the performance. Hopefully they will last for at least 70000 km.
Blown away by the performance
Mike BOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/6/2025I had these tired installed on a 3000 lbs curb weight wagon/hatchback, about 6 months ago and have been very impressed. Typically with funny wheel drive, starting on a hill on wet pavement involves lots of patience to get going without sitting there spinning the tires. That is greatly reduced with these tires! They are just as impressive in the snow. I drove up a steep street, without being able to get much momentum due to pedestrians sledding in the street, with about 6 inches of snow that was semi-compact having been driven on by a 4 or 5 vehicles. There was some wheelspin, but I was controlling it and didn't lose momentum. The only con is a little hit to fuel economy, which isn't as bad after they break in. They are also great on ro...
Excellent on wet roads, roads with de-icer applied and snowy roads.
Mule98Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 2 out of 5 stars review4/4/2022I purchased these Cross Climate 2's for my wife's 2013 Ford Edge in 2021. We have always been Michelin fans but these are noisy. Yesterday she replaced her Michelin snow tires with these and I went with her on a long drive to the eye doctor and I could not believe how noisy these were. She had told me last year they were noisy but I didn't pay attention but I sure am now. I read reviews where clients said they were quiet, so I was very surprised today and yes, I apologized for not listening to her. She wants rid of them so we will be looking at another quieter set (They will be Michelin).
Very noisy
CanonGuyOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/9/2023I just purchased these tires for my daughter's VW Tiguan in late December. So far these tires have lived up to the Michelin reputation - they are very impressive. I was a little hesitant about the aggressive tread pattern being noisy but that has not been a factor. It's very comforting to know that these tires are as advertised - high quality, safe and durable
Excellent!
Donkey11703Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/20/2022I purchased my CrossClimate 2 tires for my Honda Ridgeline G2 in preparation for Wisconsin winter. Turns out it barely snowed in my area last winter so I can't really rate the tires snow performance. I can say I've been highly impressed with the tire's wet and dry performance. Very stable in all conditions and I have noted a slight improvement in gas economy. There is a slight hum from the tires, but I only noticed it when I first purchased the tires and was curious about it. Since then I never notice road noise. Highly satisfied with my purchase and will definitely purchase again unless a CrossClimate 3 comes out first.
Outstanding wet and dry performance
SBMtoSTLOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/16/2022I had to purchase new tires for my Nissan Leaf EV, I decided to go with the New Cross Climate II tire..Most of the reviews were positive. They are a smooth riding tire with very little road noise. Great traction. Great handling. very please with the ride..
My new Michelin Cross Climate tires
WinstonOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/11/2021So happy with these tires. Installed on my 2019 Ford Flex and 2016 Subaru Legacy. So far, I have experienced heavy rain driving conditions and these tires performed very well. Traction is exceptional. Looking forward to winter driving conditions since I live in Ohio's snow belt area.
Great handling tire!
Flex and LegacyOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/9/2023Placed these on 2019 equinox and love them. Great stopping traction and great handling. Noise level is low when comparing it to an all terrain tire but low compared to a highway tire. Don’t really care about mpg so don’t notice but still close to same mileage per tank during fuel ups. Have put 15k miles on them and can’t even notice a change. Great traction on road dry or wet pavement and good off road use for gravel dirt and grass. Not a mud tire so never tried.
Great for traction
HeavyMechanicOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/22/2024Absolutely love these tires. Was looking for all season tires with excellent snow rating. Drive up into the mountains regularly and these were fantastic in the snow. They are also quiet in the summer as I like to drive with windows down and sunroof open. Perfect tires, I just wish they made something similar for our Model 3 Tesla.
Best tires I've had here in Colorado
BobDOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/12/2023I've had these tires on my 2011 Honda Pilot for the last 3 winters, these tires are exceptional in everyway. I'm 55 and have driven over 1.5 million kilometers so far. I live in Ontario and have family in New Brunswick, we drive to NB a minimum of 3 times a year. Christmas, March Break and summer. We have experienced every weather condition imaginable on these journeys. The Michelin Cross climate 2's handle anything that it has thrown at it. They have exceptional traction in all weather conditions. I have put approximately 70,000 Km on them and they handle just as incredibly as the first day they were put on the vehicle. The wear is even and consistent on all 4 corners of the Honda. I recommend these tires to anyone I meet. There is also th...
AMAZING!!!
Dad of many children.Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review10/6/2021I just got these tires installed and they don’t ride they glide over thr road with very good steering input and soft smooth ride. They are less noisy than the Michelin defenders I had before. Will know more after a few thousand miles but my initial impression were wow. What a smooth ride. Michelin has consistently made good tires and have never disappointed me or left me stranded.
Great smooth ride with very good steering input.
AshishOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 1 out of 5 stars review7/13/2024Bought these tires for 2013 Prius. Get more rain than snow now in the northeast so thought I would give them a try. Worse decision ever. Now I have been buying Michelin tires for a long time, but these are so noisy. I thought I had a muffler problem then realized it was the tires. Sounds like I’m riding in a tank. As far a driving preferred the pilot sport. Would not recommend for a Prius.
Noisiest tires Ever

(120 miles round trip) I was buying Michelin Premier A/S. A great all season tire that gave the car a great ride and averaged 60k per set. I wanted a tire that was better in crappy weather and read about the CrossClimate 2's. The Good - WOW, they really are AMAZING in bad weather. Even when going thru large puddles, the Premier's gave me that hydroplaning feeling. The CrossClimate 2's I have full control! The tires are just about 9 months old and already have 20k on them. The Bad - For the first 10k the tires were loud and almost sounded like they were rubbing up against the car especially when cornering. Fuel mileage has suffered, I was av...
Incredible Tire!
CTBrianOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/11/2021Was somewhat unsure how these tires were going to sound in real world use. I was pleasantly surprised. After nearly 1000 miles these are likely the quietist tires I've owned. I can't wait to see how they work out in the snow. They are terrific in wet weather.
One of the quietist tires I've owned
chipper146Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review6/9/2021I was a bit skeptical due to reviews claiming drastically reduced mpg. I have not found that at all. Seems virtually identical compared to the OEM Cont. Cross Contacts on my '19 Acura MDX. Overall 23-24mpg in Montana. Keep in mind lots of mountains and 75-85 mph. I've had tires on MDX's with slightly better dry performance, but not a deal breaker. The CrossClimate2 seems to be a super 3 peak tire for all seasons.
No or tiny mileage issues
MT guyOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review4/27/2023I bought these a year and a half ago. They were purchased prior to winter driving, with the idea of swapping them out for snow tires if needed. They have performed well in winter conditions for the last two years without changing them out. We also have issues with water pooling on the highway. These handle the situation well, without a hint of hydroplaning. They feel more secure than more expensive tires.
Very secure tire.
Jim55Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/15/2023Love the feel of the ride. Haven’t had them long enough to know how they do in bad weather. I was somewhat hesitant to buy them because the set of Michelins that came on my car only lasted 36,000 miles. These tires have a longer warranty. I don’t know if new cars come with a lower quality tire or not. A friend of mine had to replace his Michelin tires at 39,000 miles. Hoping for the best!
Love the feel of the ride.
JGOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review4/29/2024Just mounted the CC2's yesterday on my '23 CR-V Hybrid, but I took them immediately on a long highway/backroad shakedown road test. MPG's: at least on my Hybrid, there was absolutely no change in MPG's. In fact during my trip, it continued to increase as expected. I will caution anyone who has seen a drop, it's not unusual initially with new tires. They stick to the road and need to be worked in. Give them a few thousand miles. Noise: Amazingly quiet. Seems counterintuitive given the tread design, but for me, very quiet. And Obviously being a '23, the factory tires weren't worn much so I wasn't suffering from old tire noise. Grip: outstanding.
Love my Crossclimate 2's
TimOhioOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/4/2021I have used Michelin tires on most vehicles for years. I saw reports on these particular tires, and with the tires on my Chevrolet Equinox nearing the end of their lives, I sought and found a set of these. I have driven on them quite a few times not, including on wet pavement and found their stopping to be excellent and their ride smooth.
Smooth ride -- esxcellent stopping on wet pavement
Alan14Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/19/2021This tire (and its predecessor the +) has gotten rave reviews by Tire Rack, Consumer Reports, and others. When Michelin came out with some new sizes in February 2021 I figured it was time to give them a shot. I had already replaced the tires on my wife's Subaru Forester with CC+ before the CC2 were available. So far, I really like these tires. At 245/55R18, they are 20mm wider than the OEM tires (225/60R18) so they give more grip than either the OEM Yokohamas or the Michelin Premier A/S tires they replaced.
Better than expected!
