It took 1000 for these tires to wear in but now they are awesome, much better than the Michelin Defenders they replaced. These give a comfortable ride and extreme performance on wet roads. I can't wait until I get to drive on snow this winter. I highly recommend these tires.

Like some of you I read in Consumer Reports that the CrossClimate2 is a top-rated all-season tire, and I also watched videos like the one from Engineering Explained on youtube. I also read reviews here. Even after all that, I wondered what these tires would really be like. My previous tire was a Goodyear Eagle LS-2 that was the OEM tire for my 2018 Acura TLX. The Goodyears had 46k miles on them, but they still had plenty of tread left and were only three years old, but I wanted to replaced them because I wasn't happy with their performance in any season—dry, wet, or in snow. And so I was looking for a major performance and safety upgrade to justify the expense of early tire replacement. I'll give details below, but long story short the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires are outstanding so far. I've been driving since 1980, and I've driven most of the major tires brands over the years, and so far these are the best tires I've ever owned. Quietness: This is the one area where the Goodyear Eagle has a small edge, but the CrossClimate2 is still a quiet tire that's good for a luxury car. And actually the CrossClimate2 is much quieter around corners. The Goodyears in moderate cornering would squeal in protest, and make it seem like I was 1970s cop show or something trying to make a dramatic get away. The CC tires are no drama tires in comparison. Comfort: About equal. Both very comfortable. Interestingly the CrossClimate2 seems a bit better at handling speed bumps. MPG: About the same as the Goodyear Eagle. This was a surprise, because I was prepared to give up 2-3 mpg for a better tire, but the mpg seems to be about the same for me. Obviously ymmv. Lateral grip: Wow. Big difference. Where as mentioned the Goodyear Eagle tires were squealing for mercy at moderate speeds around corners, and seeming like they might even lose grip, the Michelin tires are great in comparison. No drama. Excellent road grip in corners. More fun to drive. Major upgrade. Safer. Took some twisting 2-lane country roads I'm quite familiar with, as well as a steeply banked cloverleaf onramp that's a favorite, and it's clear the Michelin tires are on a whole different level. It feels like you're riding on rails with the CrossClimate2. Stopping distance: Didn't try a panic stop, but going downhill on a familiar country road with no one behind me I did a rapid stop from a good speed up to a stop sign, and the CC tires seemed to stop significantly faster and with greater confidence. On center feel: This was a surprise, but perhaps because of the directional V pattern of the tread it seems like the on-center feel for the new tires is much better. I like the road feel. I feel more connected to the car and to the road with the Michelin tires. I've only owned these tires for a few days and about 300 miles so far, and the conditions have been dry, and so I'm not sure at some point I'll get to try out the two probably strongest areas for the CC tires—wet traction and snow traction. Right now I'm feeling confident the tires will live up to expectations. Overall, the CrossClimate2 tires seem like a great upgrade, and well worth the money if you are looking for a premium all-season tire with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating.

Bought these as a summer tire 2 years ago because of the ability to deal with heavy water on the road. But they are also quiet and handle well enough for what they are on , 2018 Tiguan. The wear is reasonable so far. .The all-season designation allows travel in fringe periods until I install the snows. However... If these are installed backwards they would become dangerous in rain or snow, forcing everything to the centre of the tire. I can understand those who say they are unstable , maybe noisy, ...perhaps running backwards.

Cross Climate 2 are perfect for me. We get lots of rain where I live and CC2 does an excellent job of divesting the water and holding me steady and tight to the road surface. Since the first day of driving a car too many years ago, I have always had Michelins. So, 10 Gold Stars.**********

I bought a set of the Michelin Cross Climate 2 Luxury Performance Touring Tires, size 235/55R18 100H BSW for my Toyota RAV4. They have a 60,000 mile warranty. I've put just over 3,500 miles on these tires, but I'm love them so far. They are much smoother and a quieter ride than my previous tires. Love them so far!

This is my second set. I first purchased these for my Subaru Outback, the were perfect for both rain and snow, not to mention dry weather conditions. I was so happy with these that when I purchased my 2023 Forester, I replaced the dealer’s tires with a new set of the Crossclimate2, they feel lighter and I will expect to get almost 60K mile on these as well.

I bought these a few months ago based on good reviews. I have a 2011 Nissan Murano. Getting old and noisy. Wow these tires made me feel like I was in a much newer car. So quiet ! Even on previously noisy roads. Worth every penny. Hoping I don’t have to put my winters on this year !

Bought a few weeks ago based on recommendations for winter weather handling. Last 4 inch snow, temperatures around 0F where roads tend to not be as slick - sliding on a low speed curve. Kicked sideways by 6-8 inch drifts elsewhere. I’d rate winter traction as poor.

Wow what a difference ! I own a Cadillac 2014 CTS 3.6l and have just had these tyres fitted. Having previously had the Michelin Sport tires fitted which I was very pleased with and completed over 30000 miles without losing any air or issues. These new Crossclimate 2 tyres are rated at 2X the mileage of my previous tyres and I was expecting a firmer ride. Much to my surprise these tyres ride beautifully with a softer ride and good handling.These tyres have great Michelin support and despite their price I do believe these are good value.

I"ve had these tires on my 2014 Dodge Grand Caravan R/T for over year and I am thouroughly impressed, our last set of snow rated tires were great in the snow, but if the pavement was wet they would spin like it was icy. These CrossClimate 2's handle all weather conditions much better than any previous tire I've tried. I liked them So much I bought a set for my AWD Subaru. We recently purchased a GMC Acadia AWD and that will get a set as well when it needs tires. Wear so far has been exceptional.
