Safety, durability, and economy all in one tire

When snow, ice, or pouring rain leaves other drivers unsure of their vehicles, the Cross Climate 2 tires on my Mazda CX-5 AWD leave me sure-footed, able to maneuver, accelerate, and stop with confidence. Probably the longest-lasting tires I've ever owned. I get about 30 MPG on average on the highway, so I didn't sacrifice fuel economy for safety and durability.

Great traction, life expectancy questionable

Great traction during winter. Safest I've felt in WI winters for years. Treadwear is consistent on all 4 tires, but progressing faster than expected. Lost about 1/3 of the life in 9 months. I don't usually brake aggressively, but when I've needed to stop, I stopped.

The Ony Tire You'll Ever Need - For All 4 Seasons

Fantastic tires for all seasons here in the Midwest. Quiet, and traction is excellent in all forms of weather - including snow. The only downside is that gas mileaage has went down a tad. On average, about 1-2 mpg, in both City and Highway miles. The hold pressure well, and do not need a significant amount of air refills. Wearing decently, too.

Excellent treadwear life and handling performance!

I use these CrossClimate 2 tires on my Tesla Model Y from 2022. They are the best tires I've had so far for this car. Previously I used Michelin Pilot Sport A/S but the treadwear on those were not as long as these CrossClimate 2. I also feel the handling on these are slightly better and it's a softer ride compared to the Pilot Sport A/S tires.

CrossClimate 2 is the best American-Made Tire Bar None

CrossClimate 2 is the best tire I've ever owned, bar none. Expensive, but worth every penny. First off, its made in the USA. Second, I put over 43,173 miles on my first set...on a heavy, sporty, fun Audi eTron battery EV. 3.1 years, averaging almost 14k miles/yr. Lots of HP, even more torque, 5500 pounds, spirited driving practically every day, heavy cornering, and even towing. And over 43k miles on these tires and still not down to the tread wear replacement mark!!! Unfortunately, we had a catastrophic puncture and decided it was time to replace all 4 after realizing they were over 3 years old already! The tires from the factory were TRASHED after 27k miles and 2 yrs, so we were stunned to realize we achieved 43k out of these CrossClimate 2's! Third, as the tires wore, they were practically just as grippy in rain and snow. And fourth - the entire reason we bought them in the first place was for the epic traction in rain and snow. Safety is paramount; the longevity, sportiness, and comfort were simply great bonuses along the way. Thank you, Michelin. There are some engineers out there somewhere that are the true unsung heroes of the day here.

I purchased the Crossclimate 2 tires 6 years ago. They perform as advertised. (Great on dry, wet and snow but only slightly better than an all-season tire on ice) Fuel economy has been has better than the Bridgestone Ecopia they replaced. The only reason these tires got a 4 rating is because when it came time to replace them, they were always out of stock. I pushed through another prairie winter at the wear bars… I know… not smart. They still got me through without incident. (141 000 kms) I finally decided to switch to Pirelli. Hopefully, Michelin decides to bring in the Crossclimate 3 before I need purchase my next set.

Great tires

I love my tires they got me through the snow and ice this last winter. I have a job that depends on me being there no matter the weather. This spring with all the rains we had they kept great traction on the road when the water was pooling on the roads. They have also proven to have good traction when comes to deer running out in front of you because when you apply your breaks you know your not going to slide and will still have control of your car. I will be buying them again. The tread is holding up great also especially keeping up with the tire rotation in them like you are supposed too.

Good Tires

These have great grip, braking, cornering and traction. I have a 2019 Subaru Forester Sport and I put it through it's paces on the back roads. These perform very well. During a winter snow storm, I had to re-route through a parking lot that had at least 6 inches of snow. I had no issue with traction. I used X-Mode which is Subaru's exclusive traction control option and I proceeded as if there was only an inch of snow on the ground. One thing I have noticed is that my gas mileage is reduced using these tires.

G.O.A.Tires

Our second set of Cross Climate tires. Loved the handling, grip on wet and soft ride so much we bought another set for our new car. Hard to find in 21" size.

CrossClimate2

Bought this tire after exhaustive research .. hopefully it will be the sloppy winter weather tire it say it is.. because I have a feeling this winter in central NY is going to be one of the worst! Ugh!
