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.

Excellent Tire

Purchased the CrossClimate2 tires for my 2020 Subaru Ascent four months ago. A big improvement over the tires that came with the car. They are less noisy and handle better. I haven’t driven them on snow or ice, but I expect that they will perform well in those conditions.

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.

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.

Hurts gas mileage

I bought a set of four of these tires for my 2017 VW Golf. The previous tires were OEM provided Continental ProTrack TX with about 40,000 miles on them. The old tread was getting low but still acceptable for Mass inspections. They also seemed to have developed a flat spot which was noticeable at low and high speeds. The Cross Climate 2 got very good review but in hindsight I don't recall seeing anything about highway mileage. On a trip I regularly make of about 70 miles with 60 highway, I would average 40-42 mpg. Now with these new Cross Climate 2 tires I only get 35-38 mpg. So after paying a top of the line tire I am going to continue to pay more every fill up through loss in gas mileage.

Gas Mileage Suffers

Did not know about the hit my 2021 Camry XLE' gas mileage was about to take when I bought. Buying a hybrid car was an attempt to get great mileage, and now the average is about 3 MPG lower. No other complaints about these tires, but I would not have bought them (Nov 2023) if I had known the mileage would degrade.

So so all weather tires

Purchased tires in January 2022- 45,000 kms on them. Traction is good on wet & dry roads. I find them noisy compared to all season tires- my expectations may not be realistic. Mounted on 19" aluminum Honda OEM rims- continually leak air in all seasons- maybe rims are at fault. Nevertheless will swap out to a smaller rim and tire with all season capability

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.

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.

Very Good

Very good thus far. Always preferred straight-grooved tires due to past experience with cupping and excessive noise on V shaped thread patterns. Only thing audible is a very gentle hum at very slow speeds. Most people will never notice and it is only perceptible because electric car. Really outstanding wet and wet snow traction.

Magical in Snow/ice

I live at 5000’ in the northern Sierra Nevada Mountains . My 2018 Subaru Forester limited is very good except OEM tires. Hated switching to studded snow tires , so after much research order a set of CrossClimate tires. They are slightly louder than OEM but much quieter than dedicated studded snow tires. Tires are Magical in snow and ice , so impressed! No more switching to dedicated winter tires. Will sell those . I found my lifetime tires for truly all season and terrain - pavement, dirt/gravel , forest roads , and especially winter snow/ ice.
