First of all, I've owned way more cars than any American should. Like in the upper 80s of personal vehicles in my 30 years of driving. You could say I have a problem. However, I consider it experience. I've driven on pretty much all makes of tire manufacturers across a variety of cars, trucks, SUVs and yep, even mini-vans. I live in southern WI, so we get everything from 110 degree heat to -40 cold including ice, deep snow and sluch, and heavy rains. Long story much shorter, I have yet to find a time in daily driving across highways, city towns, and back roads, where the Michelin CrossClimate 2s have not wildly esceeded my expectations. They take average cars and make them perform the unbelievable. Torrential downpour? Bring an umbrella to get to your car because you don't need help once you get there. 22" of snow? Grab a cup of coffee, because if you want to, you don't need to call into work and stay home. Highway driving and in town driving, experience better stopping, stability, ride quality AND tread life. This tire essentially gives 100% of all season performance, with 95% of a dedicated winter performance tire. There is a reason why I purposefully change to CrossClimate2 tires when I change cars. The only thing I wouldn't use these for is off roading or drifting. They look like they'd have a really loud tire howl but they don't. I've had cars I've put 40,000 miles on that are still over 70% of tread life with these. Stop reading this review and buy them, already! You will not be disappointed, other than wishing you had done it sooner. Not a car person, that's okay. Just a friendly heads up, you'll find yourself telling others who notice them and ask that they should buy them too!

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.

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.

Been 25 miles/4 days and tires offer good grip and confidence in corners. They are also quiter and smoother than my old tires. Looking forward to winter to see if they are better than my old all season tires.

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!"

Just completed a 3,500 mile round trip on these tires. Had every type of weather with the exception of snow and they did great. Even when my GPS sent me down a road i had no business being on and had very large amounts of mud. Rain was very heavy the entire trip and never once did they lose traction and breaking was very good on wet roads. I definitely recommend these tires.

I was averaging 40 to 41 miles per gallon in my RAV4 hybrid Limited with the OEM tires. I just installed a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. These handle better than the OEM and are more surefooted on mountain roads. I read other CrossClimate2 owners were getting lower mpg so I raised the inflation 4 psi over the recommended pressure to see if that would help. Even with the higher pressure I'm now consistently averaging 34.5 MPG. 15% lower. EV's and hybrid's get a triple hit from high rolling resistance tires like the CrossClimate 2. First when running on gas only, Second from faster battery drain while using battery power only and a third from a loss in regeneration to recharge the battery when coasting or braking.

Research, reviews and tests were mixed on the cross climate 2 but I bought them anyway. They are not the worst tires I have ever had but not anything like the Yokahama Parada Spec X I took off either. They are good in rain, haven't driven in snow yet but they are rated high for snow but my issues with this tire is on dry tar. No changes to vehicle except new tires. The car wants to wonder now. It is difficult to keep it going straight at any speed. The car feels squishy on dry tar now. Doesn't feel stable anymore. I don't track my mileage but the car seems to drag now so I suspect the mileage decrease complaints are probably correct. The tires do make noise at times. Mainly on dry tar with the windows open and you are stepping on the gas. You must over inflate these tires to increase the stability. I run 40 psi in front for better steering but it helps only slightly and that may wear them out prematurely. The bottom line is that there are a lot of choices in tires no need to put up with the negatives of these tires.

Second set I've purchased. First set still performs very well after three years and 50k miles on a Highlander. This set replaced Bridgestones which came new on the RX350. Those were noisy and did not ride well from day one. These CrossClimates are amazing and made the vehicle ride and sound sooo much better.

Great tires , no issues what's so ever . Considering the cost to change summer to winter / winter back to summer, these represent a great saving. 3 years Roadside Assistance on Top of Great Tires. Michelin - Top Quality World Wide . I don't know why these tires are measured at a rating of 10 rather 11 ?
