Great grip

I bought these tires for my VW Passat. I have ave a steep driveway. In the winter it was a real problem for my Hankook all season tires. When I saw the tread pattern on these tires it made me think of the treads on a snowmobile. I took a shot on them. I couldn't be happier. These tires rip up my driveway with ease. They also have incredible grip going down the snowy driveway. These tires are the best tires I've ever had. Thanks Michelin!

CrossClimate2 outstanding so far

Like some of you I read in Consumer Reports that the CrossClimate2 is a top-rated all-season tire, and I also watched videos like the one from Engineering Explained on youtube. I also read reviews here. Even after all that, I wondered what these tires would really be like. My previous tire was a Goodyear Eagle LS-2 that was the OEM tire for my 2018 Acura TLX. The Goodyears had 46k miles on them, but they still had plenty of tread left and were only three years old, but I wanted to replaced them because I wasn't happy with their performance in any season—dry, wet, or in snow. And so I was looking for a major performance and safety upgrade to justify the expense of early tire replacement. I'll give details below, but long story short the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires are outstanding so far. I've been driving since 1980, and I've driven most of the major tires brands over the years, and so far these are the best tires I've ever owned. Quietness: This is the one area where the Goodyear Eagle has a small edge, but the CrossClimate2 is still a quiet tire that's good for a luxury car. And actually the CrossClimate2 is much quieter around corners. The Goodyears in moderate cornering would squeal in protest, and make it seem like I was 1970s cop show or something trying to make a dramatic get away. The CC tires are no drama tires in comparison. Comfort: About equal. Both very comfortable. Interestingly the CrossClimate2 seems a bit better at handling speed bumps. MPG: About the same as the Goodyear Eagle. This was a surprise, because I was prepared to give up 2-3 mpg for a better tire, but the mpg seems to be about the same for me. Obviously ymmv. Lateral grip: Wow. Big difference. Where as mentioned the Goodyear Eagle tires were squealing for mercy at moderate speeds around corners, and seeming like they might even lose grip, the Michelin tires are great in comparison. No drama. Excellent road grip in corners. More fun to drive. Major upgrade. Safer. Took some twisting 2-lane country roads I'm quite familiar with, as well as a steeply banked cloverleaf onramp that's a favorite, and it's clear the Michelin tires are on a whole different level. It feels like you're riding on rails with the CrossClimate2. Stopping distance: Didn't try a panic stop, but going downhill on a familiar country road with no one behind me I did a rapid stop from a good speed up to a stop sign, and the CC tires seemed to stop significantly faster and with greater confidence. On center feel: This was a surprise, but perhaps because of the directional V pattern of the tread it seems like the on-center feel for the new tires is much better. I like the road feel. I feel more connected to the car and to the road with the Michelin tires. I've only owned these tires for a few days and about 300 miles so far, and the conditions have been dry, and so I'm not sure at some point I'll get to try out the two probably strongest areas for the CC tires—wet traction and snow traction. Right now I'm feeling confident the tires will live up to expectations. Overall, the CrossClimate2 tires seem like a great upgrade, and well worth the money if you are looking for a premium all-season tire with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating.

Most Impressive for my Chrysler 300C

I've only had these for a couple days on my Chrysler 300C and have driven over 800 miles on them already and it has been the best change of tires I have done since buying my car new. These are super quieter that my previous Firestones, ride quality has improve too, living in Florida with all this rain daily lately makes these CrossClimate2 a must have for cars like mine that are big and heavy plus RWD with a big HEMI to go...One other thing I notice was my cornering and take off have greatly improved too. All I have is praises for these tires. This week I will be heading to NY and will let you all know how they handle it once I am back.

Great tires

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!

Very quiet and smooth ride.

I bought these about 8 weeks ago and have traveled thru the Rockies on 2 round trips with snow and ice in several passes while tires gave me good traction and gr8 braking. On dry or wet pavement tires are very quiet with superior ride quality over my Michelin Defenders. Handling thru corners is excellent for a touring tire as well. Just 2 negatives, the tires vibrate between 35 - 45 km/h a bit and they are noisier on some of the cement bridge surfaces. Huge plus is about 4% increase in fuel mileage.

Great Compromise For All Seasons

We purchased a 2018 Mercedes Benz GLC 300 with run-flat tires. I was going to need snow tires plus a set of all season tires plus a set of wheels since I don't like run-flats and wanted to replace them. My service tech advised me to go for the CrossClimate2 and I am so glad I did. They handle very well in all conditions and saved me a pile of cash. They are a little noisier than all season tires but well worth that slight compromise. They were installed in Oct, 2020.

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.

Best Tires Ever!

I've never written a review for a tire, but these tires are truly the best tires ever. I live on a steep him in a private community. It snowed and no neighbors could get out or back to their houses. Our Tesla was able to go up and down the icy and snow covered hill with ease. They work perfectly in sun and rain too. Just amazing!
