Durable, long-lasting tire, excellent grip and handling in all conditions

Bought the first set of CC2s at about 6,000 miles after the OEM Kumho tires almost left me stranded on a snowy road. Just swapped those out at 64,000 miles and still with about 4/32 tread depth remaining at the center (but maybe 2.5/32 at the shoulder). I'd rather go through a so-far-very-snowy winter in the Northeast with fresh CC2s, otherwise would have gone another 6,000 miles on them.

Great tires for Snow and Ice

At 105,000 miles, I needed new tires for my 2019 Toyota Highlander Limited Platinum. I looked at a lot of tire recommendations and reviews. I was looking for something with high marks in snow and ice traction. I was also price-conscious, but wanted the best tire. These were the top-rated tires, according to Consumer Reports. What really convinced me to spend more money on these tires was that in the CR testing, these tires lasted 95,000 miles for excellent durability. Right after having them installed, my wife and I drove over to Madison for a Christmas music concert. As we drove there, snow started falling. I noticed a different sound from these tires that is distinct because of the unique pattern. They felt very comfortable. It was on the way home that they paid for themselves. By the time we left the concert, over 4" of snow had fallen. Our drive home was mainly on 2-lane state highways. I reduced the speed for the environment, and these tires performed perfectly. There were a lot of cars in the ditch on our drive home. By the time we got to the last few miles, the snow was 6-8" deep and unplowed on the county roads that were the last miles to our house. I look that they will be a very veratile tire when we get the the warmer weather and rains.

Cross Climate 2

My CC2s have 92,000 miles on them. Current wear pattern is perfect, 4/32 left. A smooth ride still. Road noise is relative to type of road but generally mostly quiet. only issue was a slight hydro plane during moderate rain fall which i experienced from date of purchase. Didn't go over 70mph during rain. 4/5 traction in snowfall. Type of car 2014 bmw wagon 328i xdrive. Michigan /Ohio resident.

Cross Country 2 is a Winner

Traction improvement 100% over my old no name tires. Winter weather has just started in my area and I'm looking forward to seeing how these tires respond on wet, icy pavement. So far, so good. Got really tired of the slipping and sliding so I flashed out for the good stuff even for my old beater. If you can only afford one improvement - get good tires. I saw reviews saying these tires were noisy. They are not. I can feel them gripping the road and it feels good. They grip so hard sometimes I hear them whine when stopping. Good tires

Third set of CrossClimate 2's

This is my third set of CrossClimate2 tires, so actions speak louder than words. I have had excellent service in every area from them. They are not listed as EV ready, but I have found tha there is very little cost in range and much improved handling in my Tesla Model 3. Admittedly they are slightly noisier than the OEM tires, but the car is itself so quiet that it is not noticeable. Improved traction, performance and comfort more than make up for any slight increase in road noise. They will also be my next set of tires, unless something wonderfuilly better comes along by that time. And that will be undoubtedly many miles in the future.

Great tires for all weather conditions

I purchased a set of these tires for my Santa Fe in April 2022 in preparation for a cross-country road trip. I immediately experienced a MUCH quieter ride. On the trip itself I encountered a wide range of weather conditions: hot and windy, light rain and heavy rain, and snow/ice. These tires handled it all with aplomb. Another reviewer mentioned a decrease in mpg with these tires, and that may be the case, albeit only a slight decrease in my case. For me, the improved footing over a wider range of weather conditions is worth it.

Not for Wet Snow

I'm using Michelin CrossClimate 2 in size 235/65 R17 on an Audi Q5 quattro (SUV). Overall, the tire performs very well in dry conditions and also handles regular rain without any issues. For everyday driving on wet or dry asphalt, the stability and comfort are good. However, the tire shows serious limitations as soon as there is wet snow or slush on the road, especially around +2°C. Braking performance becomes very weak, and the car tends to slide forward even at low speeds, around 15–30 km/h. In these conditions, the tire simply cannot provide sufficient grip, and stopping distances become dangerously long. Because of this, I was forced to purchase a new set of proper winter tires, as continuing to drive with the CrossClimate 2 in these conditions poses a real risk of an accident and serious danger. A similar issue appears when the road is only slightly damp after light rain during colder autumn/winter days — braking and stopping distances noticeably increase, even when driving slowly. Conclusion: Excellent tire for dry, wet, and mild winter conditions, but not reliable in slush, wet snow, or low temperatures. If you live in an area where wet snow is common, this tire may not be a safe choice during winter.

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…

Too many negatives

Research, reviews and tests were mixed on the cross climate 2 but I bought them anyway. They are not the worst tires I have ever had but not anything like the Yokahama Parada Spec X I took off either. They are good in rain, haven't driven in snow yet but they are rated high for snow but my issues with this tire is on dry tar. No changes to vehicle except new tires. The car wants to wonder now. It is difficult to keep it going straight at any speed. The car feels squishy on dry tar now. Doesn't feel stable anymore. I don't track my mileage but the car seems to drag now so I suspect the mileage decrease complaints are probably correct. The tires do make noise at times. Mainly on dry tar with the windows open and you are stepping on the gas. You must over inflate these tires to increase the stability. I run 40 psi in front for better steering but it helps only slightly and that may wear them out prematurely. The bottom line is that there are a lot of choices in tires no need to put up with the negatives of these tires.

Excellent traction and stopping.

Excellent traction and stopping power better than any others tires and I only buy Michelin tires. At first I wasn't happy with the design because they are directional tires which means they can only be rotated front to back and back to front. The original tires only lasted less than 32,000 miles. I admit I could go further but I don't take chances on the last 3/32” of tread left. I highly suggest these tires.

Ydoc, thanks so much for the feedback. The CrossClimate2 does have a limited mileage warranty. We'd suggest returning to the selling retailer to initiate a claim. Have the retailer contact us with any questions.
