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.

I don't usually do these reviews, but I need to on this one. These tires saved my life today. Someone cut me off in the high-speed lane at 75 mph, causing me to swerve and almost lose control of my vehicle. The AWD of my car adjusted the power to all the tires, but I would have rolled the car on a lesser tire. These things stuck to the road like glue. Thank you, Michelin!

TWO THUMBS WAY UP!!! The Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires have exceeded my high expectations! The most notable, unexpected feature is a much smoother, controlled driving experience on my 2020 Acura MDX/AWD. I’m really impressed and pleased with my purchase. On a side note, the tire’s really do enhance the look of the car (WOW!).

First 2,000 miles my fuel mileage dipped from 41mpg to 38mpg (hybrid) but once they wore in they have been the most sure footed and quiet tires I’ve ever driven. I commute 120miles per day and currently have 43,000 miles on them. Still silent and trouble free. Wet/rain and snow braking and handling and overall performance makes this tire by far the best car tire on the market.

I purchased these tires 1 year ago and was on my SUV during last winter in NL and acted perfectly in snow and slush. I drove a 450 km in high rain and heavy wind last week and these tires worked fabulously in the rain and road ruts. I think they are the best tires I ever owned in my 55 years driving.

The tires have been on the car for 1 year and just had them rotated and they look to be in fantastic shape. Due to our weather differance from one city to the next I feel this is the perfect tire as it works very well in wet rainy conditions as well as snow. So leaving the rain slick roads of Chilliwack heading east over the snow cover highway to Penticton I could not ask for a better tire. Now because I live in the rainy section mostly the stopping power and distance is unreal. Thanks for such a great tire and keep moving forward.

Bought these to go on a Toyota Corolla hatchback, then it snowed like crazy during Last part of December 2021. The ultimate test on how well they work, we are not disappointed. Even during the worst snow, and driving to conditions, these tires saved the day!

Set of 4 tires purchased and installed at designated location. These tires are noisy and becomes nosier as the speed increased. Michelin had me to go to designated tire installer for Michelin's brand. It was cited, there was a ball bearing problem or axle problem. The noise is inside the car cabin, no outside noise, shaking of wheel, etc. per the diagnostic today. The noise becomes louder as speed increase. The vehicle is not experiencing the sounds omitted from either of the diagnostic assumptions from the servicer today to give credence to their assumption. BUNCH OF HOGWASH! Vehicle has had maintenance intervals as needed at dealership. Once again, cabin ride is noisy from the tires - no squelching or other sounds indicated of the problem cited by Michelin's Authorized Dealer. Be aware!

When I bought my SUV, first thing I did is go to my tire shop for Michelin tires. I wanted Defenders which I have and love on my truck, but they didn’t come in my new SUV’s size. As we’re in the Pacific Northwest, the shop suggested the Cross Climate 2. It’s been several years of great driving in rain, snow, on gravel roads, lots of mountain roads (where black ice can be unavoidable), and these tires never give me pause. I just brought my car in for the tires to be rotated at 40K mikes, and the shop said my tires have lots of wear left; plus the wear is nice and even. The only downside is that I’ve lost several mpg in fuel efficiency, but when I’m safely driving 4,000 ft mountain passes in driving rain or snow, that seems like a fair trade off.

I have had the tires on for a day and every time I drive there is something about it that makes me nauseous. Secondly, I love my Tesla, because it has get up and go. It is fast on acceleration. With these tires, I notice a great loss in acceleration at stop lights and signs. Lastly, breaking seems a sluggish with these tires. I had the Michelin MXM tires before. Should have staid with them.
