unbiased opinion

I purchased four Cross climate 2 tires 5 months ago. (I have driven on all major brands of tires during my sixty-one years of driving) The Michelin Cross Climate 2 are by far and away the best tire as far as handling, wear, - and for me- snow traction,

Bad MPG

I bought these in September 2023 and was so excited to get them....heck even michelin makes them out to be the greatest thing since sliced bread but there's no mention of rolling resistance and rightfully so. Dropped my MPG so much that I had to return them and just to think this is the second generation with an improvement in rolling resistance I sure would hate to know what the previous generation was like. Michelin perhaps on the 3rd generation you can greatly lower the rolling resistance and than claim them to be the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Good tires

Bought these tires a week ago and it has rained ever since. Traction is great. Had to stop at a light on a hill, the car in front of me spun his tires when the light turned green, I got going right away. Quieter ride than previous OEM tires. Liking these tires so far

One Great Tire!

Bought 3 months ago. Since then we have had snowfalls of up to 30 cm (12”) of snow and icy, compact snow roads as well as dry pavement. So fat these are about the best tires I have had on a regular vehicle. No spinning when starting out, quiet on dry pavement with good handling. One excellent thing I have noticed on ice and compact snow is little to no sideways sliding. Have not experienced heavy rainfall yet, but with traction in snow and on ice I do not expect any problems. These would be the perfect tire for the Lower Mainland of BC which gets heavy rain and occasional wet snow.

CrossClimate 2 - My New Normal Tire

I've had these on my 2014 Avalon Limited for about a year now. I got them after the surprise snowstorm we had because I saw they were fine in the summer, too. These are honestly the best tires I've ever had. I've always wanted a quieter tire, especially on highway sections where they've put down a layer of gravel over tar, making it very noisy to drive on. There's still some noise, of course, but this is the first tire that has ever made a noticeable difference. I've had no issues with how the car handles or anything. I had to dodge a surprise armadillo on the road recently and had to make a pretty aggressive maneuver to steer around him. My back end only lost traction for a fraction of a second and my steering remained solid. I also noticed a big difference in how well these tires cut through those water ruts that are on some highways. There's another instance where I've seen a big difference with these tires. There's far less resistance when you drive along those extended patches of road water. Unfortunately, we didn't get any snow or sleet this past winter, so there's nothing I can say right now about how well they do there. I waited through the whole winter to write this review, but I decided to go ahead and post it without the winter report.

I’ll buy ‘em as long as they make ’em.

Can’t say enough about these tires. They are as good in 3-season as the 3-seasons I ran on all my cars for the past 15 years, and as good in winter as the non-stud snows I’ve used on the Accord for 3 years. Fantastic in rain. Maybe 1-2 mpg cost, but a small price to pay for not having to own and swap 2 sets of rubber.

Beyond expectations in snow!

Not wanting to buy separate winter tires for our new Bronco Sport Badlands, I changed the OEM tires for CrossClimate2's. Toronto just had the worst blizzard in years, but these tires took it in stride, was able to drive on unplowed roads with up to 30CM of snow like it was there. Definitely putting a set on my other vehicle.

Great tires, no worries, but no snow yet

I put these on a Subaru Forester in anticipation of winter snows and mountain driving. Replaced Vrdestein that had excellent traction but poor tread life. Compare to those, the Crossclimates roll smoother, are far quieter, and if it matters, are better looking. They handle road bumps well and felt very stable in heavy rain. No snow yet so I can't say if they live up to their reputation for great snow traction.

Best Tires I’ve Ever Owned

I recently purchased four Cross Climate 2 tires and they have exceeded every expectation. From steering on tight turns to stopping distance they are superior to any tires I’ve owned. I have AKWAYS purchased Michelin tires but these are a cut above the rest

GREAT HANDLING, BUT SO NOISY

I've had these tires for a little over 2 years now only clocked 20k miles on them. They are so loud and the noise comes in to the cabin. I drive a Lexus which is very quiet, but the road noise is getting unbearable for me. As for as performance, I'll give it a solid 5 star because these tires perform well in wet conditions.

reply from Consumer Care MIC US

orozc85, sorry to read of the noise complaint. Noise could be from a wear pattern that is developing on the tires. We'd suggest taking the vehicle back to the Michelin retailer for an inspection of the tires. Then call us at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST Mon-Fri so that we can discuss their findings and determine next steps.
