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.

These are excellent tires for our 2020 Subaru Outback Touring XT. Comfortable and quiet ride with low noise and good traction. We have not yet had the opportunity to drive in rain or snow yet to judge wet traction, but dry road performance is excellent. We reviewed test results from Consumer Reports and Tire Rack to help selection.

I have used these tires for years. Tire wear is slow, if you maintain proper air pressure. Traction is great in the snow, rain, cornering at speed and when riding on lined pavement (the tire design eliminates vehicle wobbling because of the cross design). I have the tires on our BMW, Mercedes and VW.

The best tires for my Subaru Ascent. I am on my second set of the cross tires. I got 94000 on my first set and they still had some life left. I’m on my second set now with 25000 miles and they still look new and perform fantastic. The sure foot tracking both on rain and snow is amazing! Worth the price!

The tires have literal decimated the electric range of my Chrysler Pacifica PHEV. I wish that we, in North America, could buy the European Cross Climate 2 tire in the H speed rating. This tire has the best rating for rolling resistance in Europe. Sadly Michelin has decided for us that rolling resistance is not important and that we shouldn't be able to buy those tires here. I doesn't hurt that tire manufacturers are NOT required to divulge rolling resistance performance in the US, as they are in Europe.

I have these tires on my Audi A4, have about 35k miles on them. Living in Colorado in the mountains I have been very impressed. These tires stick like glue. Best part is you can use them year round, no changing to snow tires. Only complaint I have is I did lose a couple of mpg with them. Even so the security of them makes up for it. I just purchased a set for my 2023 Kia K5.

I had to go back to the deal a few times because my tire gauge light kept on coming on and they told me it was brand new tires like go well there’s something wrong with it because my tire gauge light should not be coming on every day so finally they decided to take the tires apart. They found a low leak by the stem and they fixed it but it waste a lot of time for me to go back-and-forth.

JUST TOOK OFF A SET I PURCHASED 4 1/2 YRS AGO 84,555 MILES ON THEM AND 4/32 TREAD DEPTH LEFT. UNBLIEVABLE RIDE & TRACTION ALL THRU THE LIFE OF THE TIRES. I WOULD RECCOMEND THIS TIRE FOR ANY TYPE OF VEHICLE. THE RIDE WAS BETTER THAN THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW. THANKS MICHELIN D. SCOTT RAMSEY

I only buy these tires on every car now. They handle any weather rain,snow,ice and extreme heat just fine. I have never hydroplaned in these and they are about 90% as good as winter tires on ice. I used to buy the Toyo style like this but did not like them on the really hot days. If you do not want to deal with storing and changing winter tires, these will do the job.

My father always used Michelin's, but this is my first set. He was so right. The tires drive beautifully like floating on air. I thought my new car was rough until I had these tires installed. They hold the road extremely well. I am very pleased with this purchase.
