Smooth Ride, Great Traction

I bought these tires about five months ago. They have great traction in the dry and the wet no testing for snow yet it hasn’t fallen. As expected small size pieces of gravel will get stuck in the grooves between the rows of tread… easy enough to pop out with a small screwdriver. My Toyota Sienna rides smooth with perhaps a little more noise than a regular summer tire… don’t forget, this is basically an all season tire, so you give up a little to get a lot.

Excellent Performance

I have no complaints with these tires after 2 winters and over 15,000 miles of use. The road noise is as good or better than my previous tires. Fuel economy is the same as before. Excellent snow/ice/winter performance for all season tires. Very pleased overall, and I will be considering these in the future as my other vehicles need tires.

Better than expected!

This tire (and its predecessor the +) has gotten rave reviews by Tire Rack, Consumer Reports, and others. When Michelin came out with some new sizes in February 2021 I figured it was time to give them a shot. I had already replaced the tires on my wife's Subaru Forester with CC+ before the CC2 were available. So far, I really like these tires. At 245/55R18, they are 20mm wider than the OEM tires (225/60R18) so they give more grip than either the OEM Yokohamas or the Michelin Premier A/S tires they replaced.

Great all around tire

I bought these more and an all season as I have dedicated winters. I did use them a bit on snow and was impressed with them. Overall, they’re quiet, ride nice and the tread wear seems great so far. If they’re still around when I need a new set, I’ll definitely buy again.

Luxury ride

I wanted to replace OEM tires on Lexus RX350 within first week but decided to wait on CrossClimate2 to become available. It was worth the wait, Lexus now rides like a luxury vehicle. Ride is much smoother and quieter and overall more solid feel when making left/right turns. Handles very well and provides confident feeling on very wet roads, expect the same in the winter. Great tire!

They perform as advertised

Tire are smooth and perform as advertised. I read complaints about mileage and noise. I HAVE DRIVEN a Jetta and Grand Caravan and found the tires to be quiet. My tires are 245x50x20 and they are noisy. The ribs on a larger size are further apart and this causes them to be noisier. As for mileage if you are going on a long trip put 4 PSi over recommended inflation and your mileage will be almost the same as before. Don't forget to adjust pressure when done with your trip.

A better ride!

I'm in love with these new tires. I put them my wife's Cadillac XT5 to replace her original tires. I never liked driving her car because it always swayed in turns and curves on the highway. It would feel like the car would just give way and have to be jerked back. Apparently the side walls were very flimsy and would give way under pressure. The new tires do not suffer from this action. I now enjoy driving her car and the ride is very smooth and feels secure.

Awful choice.

First off I’m a huge Michelin fan until now. Everyone raved about these so I plopped down a weeks take home and had them installed on my rogue. Huge mistake! I had primacy’s and absolutely loved them but these are horrendous. They ride like they’re filled with concrete, dropped highway mpg from 31 to 27 and produce a noticeable hum. To make matters worse, the vibrate @80 mph and all the balancing and alignment checks in the world can’t get rid of it. I bought an extra set of factory rims and had a competitors tire installed, which was almost 59% less and the vibration is gone. Bad tires! They do wear like iron is the only good thing I can say. I use these now for a winter tire and hope we don’t get snow so I don’t have to swap wheels out. So disappointed in what I spent for such a gimmicky tire.

Thank you for providing feedback on your experience with CrossClimate2 tires. We are sorry to hear that the fuel efficiency did not meet your expectations. When new tires are installed on a vehicle, the fuel efficiency will typically experience an initial drop compared with the worn tires that were removed. Fuel savings will typically become evident over the lifespan of a set of CrossClimate2 tires. Additionally, For any vibration, uniformity, difficult to balance, high road force, or slow leak complaints, please consult with the dealer to ensure that the proper lubricant is applied to both the rim flange and the tire bead during the mounting process.  This mounting and demounting procedure applies to all tires and brands. We hope that you will consider Michelin brand tires again in the future.

Great for the PNW and other rainy/snowy places

When I bought my SUV, first thing I did is go to my tire shop for Michelin tires. I wanted Defenders which I have and love on my truck, but they didn’t come in my new SUV’s size. As we’re in the Pacific Northwest, the shop suggested the Cross Climate 2. It’s been several years of great driving in rain, snow, on gravel roads, lots of mountain roads (where black ice can be unavoidable), and these tires never give me pause. I just brought my car in for the tires to be rotated at 40K mikes, and the shop said my tires have lots of wear left; plus the wear is nice and even. The only downside is that I’ve lost several mpg in fuel efficiency, but when I’m safely driving 4,000 ft mountain passes in driving rain or snow, that seems like a fair trade off.

Most Impressive for my Chrysler 300C

I've only had these for a couple days on my Chrysler 300C and have driven over 800 miles on them already and it has been the best change of tires I have done since buying my car new. These are super quieter that my previous Firestones, ride quality has improve too, living in Florida with all this rain daily lately makes these CrossClimate2 a must have for cars like mine that are big and heavy plus RWD with a big HEMI to go...One other thing I notice was my cornering and take off have greatly improved too. All I have is praises for these tires. This week I will be heading to NY and will let you all know how they handle it once I am back.
