VERY NOISY TIRES!

Set of 4 tires purchased and installed at designated location. These tires are noisy and becomes nosier as the speed increased. Michelin had me to go to designated tire installer for Michelin's brand. It was cited, there was a ball bearing problem or axle problem. The noise is inside the car cabin, no outside noise, shaking of wheel, etc. per the diagnostic today. The noise becomes louder as speed increase. The vehicle is not experiencing the sounds omitted from either of the diagnostic assumptions from the servicer today to give credence to their assumption. BUNCH OF HOGWASH! Vehicle has had maintenance intervals as needed at dealership. Once again, cabin ride is noisy from the tires - no squelching or other sounds indicated of the problem cited by Michelin's Authorized Dealer. Be aware!

For the ones you love most.

I had my parents put these CrossClimate2's on my mother's Ford Escape and I'm convinced they're the absolute best choice for the one's you love. I know if she's encountering poor conditions on the road, that she's got the best ability to stop and get going compared to anyone else. I've driven it multiple times myself and ridden passenger multiple times also. These tires are extremely quiet and the ride is much improved. My father liked the CrossClimate2's so much he's switched from his previous Defenders on his Van to the CrossClimate2s. If you encounter poor weather fairly often, these *are the tires for you*. I'm rocking my own PilotSports and we're just one happy Michelin family now. I don't often go out of my way for brands like this but I feel we actively stake our lives on these tires every time we choose to drive and I only settle for the best, Michelin.

Great Tires

I bought a set for my 2013 Ford Focus in late March. I have about 5K miles on them and really like the handling and grip on both dry and wet roads. I can't wait so see what they are like this winter. I also put a set on my 2008 Ford Taurus X in September. Only a few thousand miles but just like the others they are great in wet and dry road conditions.

Solid handling

Had these installed on a 2015 Civic. They replaced Nokian WR G3s that wore out before 30,000 miles. Had the Cross Climate 2s on until it was time to trade in the car another 30,000 miles later. They still had more than half their tread left. They were also much better in the snow than the Nokians. I actually couldn't wait for snow just because it was so much fun to drive in it. Felt very solid and safe in all weather conditions. This fall I will be replacing the OEM tires with another set of Michelin CC 2s it will be money well spent.

Perfect All Season Tires, Especially in Rain and Snow!

I've been driving on these tires for 12,000 miles. These tires work extremely well in heavy rain with no hydroplaning at all. Barley can get these tires to break free under heavy acceleration. Tried them out in 6 inches of snow, they worked extremely well for an AS tire. Great acceleration and braking traction. Tracked very straight when at speed. In the dry, they feel like a Performance Summer tire. They are a little noisy in the first 3000 miles, now they sound great. I recommend these tires to all my friends and family. I have been using Bridgestone 980 AS, for 3 sets, and these are far better. Used on a 2019 Hyundai Elantra Sport FWD.

Not Impressed

I bought these tires Mar 30 2021 .My first set of directional tires and not impressed.I immediately noticed a vibration.Decided to give them a week ,since there were new.They rebalanced and drove them another week before going back to bell tire. These tires on average 3- 5oz of weights which is a lot. The longest measurement of weight was 5 inches.So this is my 3 rd trip back and this time they a ( road force test) ,something I haven't heard of.This machine manipulates the sidewall of the tire, then rebalance.They end up with about the same amount of weights.So I leave and they did this procedure one more . Was told they are, whats considered acceptable limits with minimum vibration.So they are ok for now, I quess. My old worn out pilots were nice to the end .At the first rebalance they told me its probably my rims are bent. They had gotton the tires all mixed up and tried to put the tires on the wrong side of car.I had marked the arrows with white paint so this wouldn't happen.Have to rethink staying with Michelin next time.

Incredible traction power

We travelled over 10,000 kilometres this summer while pulling a travel trailer exploring Newfoundland in detail. The tires performed great on some questionable roads, some packed with potholes. Upon inspection of the tires at the end of the trip, we found they still looked like new. We love those tires. Thank you Michelin!!!

Good performance, but fuel consumption increased by +15%

Michelin CrossClimate2 Tire Review After more than a month and approximately 1000 miles of driving, I’m sharing my experience with the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires. ADVANTAGES: - Versatile Performance: The Michelin CrossClimate tires have exceptional traction, especially in wet weather and heavy water on the road, it is crucial for those of us living in Florida - Long Tread Life: Michelin claims a long tread life for these tires - 60K Miles Warranty: While I hope I won’t need it, having a 60,000-mile warranty provides peace of mind - Quiet Operation: Contrary to some reviews, I found these tires to be quiet during my drives. - Distinctive Design: The unique design sets them apart from many other tires. DISADVANTAGES: - Increased Fuel Consumption: Immediately after installation, I noticed a substantial increase in gas consumption—up to 20% compared to my previous OEM tires. After approximately 1000 miles, this improved to 10-15%. However, it’s still a significant impact! Given the already high cost of these tires, it’s important to take into account the additional expense resulting from increased fuel consumption. SUMMARY: The performance of the Michelin CrossClimate tires is very good, prioritizing safety and hopefully longevity, as claimed by Michelin. However, for my next tire purchase, I’ll be seeking similar performance without the negative impact on gas consumption.

SerMat, thanks for taking the time to submit a review. New tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires.  As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases.  Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve. Feel free to give our team a call at 866-866-6605 to discuss further.

Great performance and reliability!

I purchased my Michelin CrossClimate2 Tires a couple months ago and I am extremely pleased with these tires. I have used many Michelin tires in the past on many of my family vehicles but this is my first car with the new CrossClimate2 tires. I have recommended Michelin tires to other family members and plan to purchase Michelin tires for other cars when needed in 2022.

NEW SHOES

2016 MALIBU. Trying these for the first time. Only been a couple week. So far like the confident feel. In SW Tenn and don't get much snow, but like the control in heavy rain. Still figuring these tires out but like them so far. Maybe a little noise but not enough to cause concern. These tires seemed to balance well because I am please on the highway at speeds and no vibration. I know they are move for SUV's but they look pretty good on MAL.
