I bought these tires about a month ago and the quietness over the stock Brdgestone tires reall impressed me, but today in Calgary it rained all day and the amount of stability and no hdroplaning at freeway speeds exceeded my expectations.I can hardly wait to try them out on the snow. The stock tires seemed okay as its a Nissan Murano all wheel drive but honestly I would have upgraded to these tires from new for the extra dollars as I have never knew what a difference great tires are.

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 should say up front that I have personally driven well over a half a million miles on multiple sets of Michelin pick-up truck and auto tires over the past thirty years, and have been very impressed with the ride, performance, and durability of every set. Much of those miles were on interstate highways, with lots of surface street travel. So when I bought a set of four Cross Climate II's three months ago I was very interested in the Cross Climate II tread design and a bit excited to see how it would perform. Well lets just say I was not disappointed. The first week was dry highway and surface roads, the tires felt great! as have all my previous sets of Michelin tires have. I did get a chance early on to checkout the side wall stability at high speed when I had to dodge some significant road debris (a semi truck leaf spring) at highway speed (75mph). The Cross Climate II's responded with true stability and easily passed the high speed road debris dodge test with flying colors. On the third week I was able to check them out in a major down pour, I drove into a rain storm doing 75 mph. I initially cut my speed back to 60 mph to get a feel of tires meeting the very wet road surface, and they felt great. So with no traffic around I tilted the wheel back and fourth slightly to feel the tread stability while driving on water, and they felt glued to the road, so I being a bit of risk taker I took the speed back up to 75mph and the performance was the same; excellent! So that brings me to today my first drive of the year through three or four inches of icy wet heavy snow, tracking was very good through lane changing. The Cross Climate II's handled the snow and slush with no problem. The Cross Climate II Michelin tires deserve five stars and two thumbs up in my book! In closing this review I tell a little story about some advise I overheard when I was younger working American. I overheard a older work colleague say there was two purchases where quality was imperative and he would never go cheap on; shoes and mattresses, because if not in one your in the other. So when I started driving and purchasing tires I added tires to his adage, so there are three things where quality was imperative and I would never go cheap on; shoes, mattresses and tires, because if not in / on one your in / on the other.

I've had my tires for a couple months and have put about 3,000 miles on them. I find they are quiet, have great grip and corner well. The only downside is they have reduced my Fusion hybrid's mpg about 5%. Guess that's the tradeoff for the good traction.

The traction is bad when it’s raining or on slippery roads.

Excellent stopping distance on wet pavement.

Wet weather traction is superb. Best tires I’ve ever owned.

Comfort, handling, traction best tires I've ever had. Time will tell, on the durability.

Very pleased with the look and feel of our new Michelin tires!

Secure handling in the winter and considerably more quiet.
