After nearly a year of use, I've started to notice that this tire is getting quite loud. In fact, I can feel the vibrations when I'm driving at speeds of 40-90 km/h. On a more positive note, the tire performed exceptionally well during its first winter. The traction was excellent on both snowy and icy roads. I'm curious to see how it will perform in its second winter.

Installed on 2012 flex. Quieter ride than previous Michelin defenders. Only on a short time not sure of durability or performance or durability. Handles well in rain so far.

These Cross Climates actually gave me a 2mpg increase in city driving with my Altima. Only problem i have with them is the way they pick up gravel. I have a long gravel driveway and tires are constantly full of rocks. Other than that I love them.

Nice smooth, quiet ride at speed. A bit of a whine or whistle at slow speeds, like 10 to 20 mph. Just got them this afternoon and only have about 10 miles on them. Will come back for a more thorough review after we have more miles on them.

This is a repeat purchase for me. They are very wonderful looking tires, too. People notice them and compliment how nice they look. (They ask how I like them, too. I LOVE THEM ! ) They wear evenly and I believe they will exceed the 60,0000 mile warranty, again. I especially enjoy how the Michelin Cross Climate 2 grips the road and handles heavy rainfall.

I put a set on my ford escape and have driven nearly 70,000 miles on them so far. They still have decent tread on them and perform very well. I have noticed that they get a little louder after about 60,000 miles. But most tires don’t even make it that far. I recently bought another set for our Santa Fe.

This has been the best (snowiest) winter in years, and I’m so glad that I prepared for it! These tires have met the challenge in every way. Since I frequently have grandkids in my car I needed to make safety my top priority. As a retired UPS driver, I know how important tires are to that goal. These will be my go-to tires for the foreseeable future.

Half-life update (30,000 miles). After a fresh rotation and balance, the tires feel new. The 5300lb Lexus handles great with even wear on all four. I recommend these tires to all who would listen. The confidence in bad weather is worth the price. The tires were purchased 12/19/22.

After seeing the recommendations of many fellow Subaru Outback owners who use the CrossClimate 2 tires, I did my own research and decided to follow their lead. I could not be happier with these tires. After installation in the late autumn, we experienced two major snowfalls that put them to the test. The traction in slippery highway and side street conditions has been reassuring. The car, already good in such weather, is even better with the Michelins. Braking is assured. The ride is comfortable and quiet. It's still early days, but I am confident I made the right decision to buy the CrossClimate 2.

I put these tires on my 2023 Honda Pilot, and overall they’ve been impressive. Their all‑weather capability is excellent, and they’ve been especially strong in snow—confident traction, stable handling, and exactly the kind of winter performance I was hoping for. Road noise is also pleasantly low, even at highway speeds, which makes daily driving more comfortable. The one drawback has been fuel economy. I’m seeing about a 5‑MPG drop compared to my previous tires, which is a pretty significant difference. I’m hoping mileage improves once the weather warms up, but for now it’s definitely the trade‑off. Despite the hit to fuel efficiency, I’m happy with how these tires perform overall. If winter traction and quiet ride quality are your priorities, they deliver—just be prepared for a good noticeable dip in mileage.
