These tires are our first replacement tires since purchasing our car. We have a Subaru and it is all wheel drive. We selected the Cross climate because it is supposed to be great in all weather conditions. So far, we have noticed how much nicer the car handles. It brakes better. Even the wet tread pattern it leaves on the driveway is nicer.

I've seen and heard a lot of comments about these tires being noisy. I've had a set on my 2013 Dodge Journey SXT (front wheel drive) for 4 years. They were fine at first, no noticeable noise. When I went for my first rotation, the service writer asked how I liked them. I said they were fine and he mentioned that some folks complain of the noise. (side story-they stripped my wheel locks with their impact wrench. Had to go to Dodge dealer, who ended up having to blast them off with a jackhammer!) After all that and the rotation...dang! Noisy!!! Had I not noticed until the guy mentioned it??? I wasn't sure. After a few months of noise, it occurred to me that the ordeal with the wheel locks may have blown my alignment. So I had one done, and like magic, the noise was gone. I've driven out the rest of the tread miles on that set, smooth and quiet. I'm about to go get a new set next weekend. Oh and by the way, they're very impressive in heavy rain. Living in the south, never had a chance to try them on snow. To all the naysayers, I say "make sure your alignment is good before posting negative reviews!"

I just bought these tires to replace my old tires from 2008 on my Infiniti with 26,300 miles in my car. I spent days shopping for a great tire. Michelin definitely makes the best tires in the world. Been using them for 40 years. These are higher price but well worth it. No road noise at all. Same gas mileage. These are awesome tires. They definitely work very well in all types of weather. I love how they handle and look. They look sporty on my crossover SUV. Most mechanics recommend these if you can afford them. You get what you pay for. Superior quality. Highly recommend.

I just purchased these tires while on vacation because my old tire could not be repaired. This is an amazing tire. Great in the snow, fantastic handling, and no more noise than my pirelli scorpions. You would expect some noise with the aggressive tread pattern but that is not the case. What noise there is seems to be quieter and a lower frequency. Very happy!

I just put on my second set of Cross Climate2's on my 2016 Outback. Besides the fact the Outback is just the best car for the mountains and snow, adding the Cross Climate's just adds that extra layer of reliability and safety. Traction is amazing in sow and rain! I would recommend these tires to anyone looking for a great all season tire!

Installed on 2012 flex. Quieter ride than previous Michelin defenders. Only on a short time not sure of durability or performance or durability. Handles well in rain so far.

Nice smooth, quiet ride at speed. A bit of a whine or whistle at slow speeds, like 10 to 20 mph. Just got them this afternoon and only have about 10 miles on them. Will come back for a more thorough review after we have more miles on them.

Drove through a winter storm and tires performed OK given the conditions. Could feel them slipping and sliding especially when going under overpasses. Maximum safe speed was approximately 40-45 mph on I-75 (posted speed limit was 75mph). Seem to handle snowy conditions well on side streets at lower speeds. Haven't slid through any stop signs.

After nearly a year of use, I've started to notice that this tire is getting quite loud. In fact, I can feel the vibrations when I'm driving at speeds of 40-90 km/h. On a more positive note, the tire performed exceptionally well during its first winter. The traction was excellent on both snowy and icy roads. I'm curious to see how it will perform in its second winter.

Tires are great when they are new, now I have had them for 2 years I will never buy Michelin tires again. Tire were great the first and part of the second year. Now they howl and extremely noisy, worse than aggressive pickup tires. Also I had the tires rotated every 5,000 miles. DO NOT BUY THE CROSSCLIMATE TIRES!
