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.

An excellent all-season or winter changeup tire for almost any application where rain, ice, and moderate snow are factors (a legitimate 'snowflake', 3PMSF) while maintaining confidence at high speeds, and enhancing certain performance characteristics such as cornering and braking. I just ordered the CrossClimate2 to replace a pair of CrossClimate+ on my [FWD] Mazda, not needing to consider another tire, as I recently chose a set of CrossClimate2 on my [AWD] Lexus IS for the new winter set and I could not be happier with them. You do need to be attentive and work them in properly during the break-in period, as they can be a little loose during that break-in. If you do break them in properly you will have a better chance of being a satisfied Customer, this is true with just about ANY tire. I suspect some of the complaints around these either do not understand that break-in approach and/or received poor advice - or no advice at all, from their Installers. As far as gas mileage and road noise comments go I would disregard those as the performance and safety of these tires far exceed any inconvenience in those areas, I've had dozens of different tires on similar vehicles and these are neither loud nor inefficient gas-wise, long-term. I gained back my MPG and then some with these compared to multiple other brands. My only complaint of sorts would be the tire/tread life, where I have just over 20k on a pair of CrossClimate+ after approximately 2 years. That is very low mileage-wise, however,, they have been great through everything nature has thrown at them and even though they have 3-4/32nd left out of the 9/32nds when new, I'm replacing them early for safety concerns instead of trying to squeeze another season or three out of them, which I probably could, but better safe than sorry. My family drives these cars daily and I'm more comfortable with them having more tread. I am expecting more life out of the CrossClimate2 with 10/32nds new... I will likely post a separate performance-centric review for the CrossClimate2 experience on the Lexus, as I only have a few hundred miles on that vehicle, but so far the results exceed expectations, providing a very stable and consistent ride, better than any of the other tires I've ever had on that Lexus. If anything the tires amplify the driving experience on my vehicles and sometimes that means revealing suspension issues and other inconsistencies in their feedback, the type of precise feedback that less dynamic and responsive tires do not provide. This is another likely limitation of understanding on the part of some CrossClimate Owners.

I was skeptical about these All-weather tires until I put them on my daily. I have used sets of UHP tires on my other cars and I am impressed by the performance in both dry and wet for tires that you could also use in winter conditions. Speaking of winter performance, you cannot expect it to be as good as a set of dedicated winter tires from Michelin or other decent brands, but as long as you know how to drive properly in winter, these tires will serve you well and you don't have to buy another set of wheels and tires anymore. I did not test it on the same car but personally I think it even outperform some cheap or old winter tires that I have tried. If you are on the fence, just give it a try and you are not going to regret it.

I bought these because of the Consumer Reports ratings and I am very disappointed. The road noise regardless of speeds is unbearable. The road noise is comparable to that of driving with mud tires, Which if I were driving with mud tires I would expect the noise but not on car road tires.

TWO THUMBS WAY UP!!! The Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires have exceeded my high expectations! The most notable, unexpected feature is a much smoother, controlled driving experience on my 2020 Acura MDX/AWD. I’m really impressed and pleased with my purchase. On a side note, the tire’s really do enhance the look of the car (WOW!).

its been almost a year since i got this tires and we are happy to report they are performing very well in all conditions, in Alberta we get freezing and snowing conditions and these tire just don't care. no more hassle of swapping tires every winter winter and spring. We are using them on a 2021 Santa Fe AWD

Purchased a set of these for my 2015 Subaru legacy. Great dry and great in rain. However I hit a deer and totaled the car. Purchased a new Subaru WRX but unfortunately the sizes didn't match so I had to purchase another set to fit the WRX to replace the factory Dunlops Can't wait for snow!

I bought these tires after a brush with a curb caused my previously inadequate tire to blow out. The Michelin tires have been such an improvement in so many ways. The noise is greatly reduced, the handling is terrific and they perform miracles in all climate conditions.

Have had these tires for over a month now and living in Alaska have really gotten to experience the full range of winter conditions with these tires. I have them mounted on my Model Y performance, overall the traction is excellent in winter conditions on both ice and light to deep snow up to 12", very comparable to a dedicated winter tires that I have used. Wet traction is also excellent, honestly feels like dry conditions while in wet. I was honestly impressed with how quiet these are, and are very noticeably quieter then the stock 21" that come with the car. The only negative that I can say with these are that you can't really feel the corners, if you are sliding and you often won't notice as soon as you would with a traditional all season tire with a different tread pattern. Would recommend to anyone living in a colder climates with snow and not wanting to switch tires. I haven't noticed a huge loss in range with these tires like other people have stated.

I bought these for my Accord because I have a set on my HR-V. I wanted a tire that was excellent in rain and on dry pavement. The handling is excellent. We had several inches of rain the other day and they handled excellent. They are much quieter than I expected but road noise is somewhat louder than Defender tires.
