Good, but not Great (yet)

I purchased these to put on my Audi A6 Quattro to replace the stock Continental tires. There definitely is a difference in ride quality and very "grippy", but then again I will say that is probably true of any new set of tires. I've only put about 100 miles on them, mostly highway and residential roads. No rain and no snow yet, so I cannot confirm the claims of performance yet. All dry and speeds ranging from 0 to 75 mph. The ride is smooth, but not as smooth as the Continental but I expected such for such an aggressive tire tread. The one thing that I can say is that these are a little louder on the highway then what I was hoping for hence 4 stars. I thought the accoustic technology would have made them really quiet, but guess not. Maybe after the tread wears down some, they will become more quiet. The other thing I will say is that the tires sometimes go where the grooves in the road go, so you have to be on your toes. Will report back after the snowy season.

Best tires ever for New England

I’m on my second set of the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires on my 2016 Ford edge. Living in Maine, these are by far the absolute best tires I’ve had on my vehicle in over 40 years. Unbelievable traction on snow and ice, rain, and water on the roadway. The ride is quiet and highly responsive. I recommend these to anyone.

BEST TIRE EVER

Purchased the Cross Climate 2 tires for our Volvo XC90 three months ago. I have been purchasing Michelin tires for over 40 years and always replace original tires with Michelins. Immediately noticed an improvement in ride quality in all aspects over the original tires. The reide was quieter, smoother and the vehicle tracked better. We took a 3,000 mile trip shortly after we put on the new tires and exxperienced about a half mile per gallon increase in mileage.. NOw that we have driven the car on both snow and ice I must say that in our opinion the best tires we have ever owned. The traction and stopping during winter driving conditions in the midwest is superb. I have recommended these tires to many friends and relatives.

Better than expected!

This tire (and its predecessor the +) has gotten rave reviews by Tire Rack, Consumer Reports, and others. When Michelin came out with some new sizes in February 2021 I figured it was time to give them a shot. I had already replaced the tires on my wife's Subaru Forester with CC+ before the CC2 were available. So far, I really like these tires. At 245/55R18, they are 20mm wider than the OEM tires (225/60R18) so they give more grip than either the OEM Yokohamas or the Michelin Premier A/S tires they replaced.

Look awesome and perform well

I bought these tires for my MKX last January (2021) and was immediately satisfied with the way they drove through snow and slush along with how they handled ice. I just bought an Aviator with size 275/40R22 and you don't make them yet. Please have them ready for me next winter.

Excellent All-Around Tires. Quiet and Capable

Bought first set for a 2010 Forester. So impressed I bought a second set for the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Great ride, and grip especially on the Grand Cherokee. Replaced OEM tires on the Jeep. These are just so much better. No more loud crashing over potholes and highway cruising is so quiet. Replaced some Kumho's on the Subaru and these are also super quiet. Certainly worth the money. Don't put on cheap tires. You'll regret it like buying cheap shoes.

Great for the PNW and other rainy/snowy places

When I bought my SUV, first thing I did is go to my tire shop for Michelin tires. I wanted Defenders which I have and love on my truck, but they didn’t come in my new SUV’s size. As we’re in the Pacific Northwest, the shop suggested the Cross Climate 2. It’s been several years of great driving in rain, snow, on gravel roads, lots of mountain roads (where black ice can be unavoidable), and these tires never give me pause. I just brought my car in for the tires to be rotated at 40K mikes, and the shop said my tires have lots of wear left; plus the wear is nice and even. The only downside is that I’ve lost several mpg in fuel efficiency, but when I’m safely driving 4,000 ft mountain passes in driving rain or snow, that seems like a fair trade off.

Downgraded performance of replacement tire is sad.

Sadly, this Cross Climat 2 tire recommended for Honda Accord is a downgrade from the OEM tire and recommendation as this only has a "B" traction rating, but the OEM tire was rated "A". OEM tire is Michelin Primacy MXM4. I don't appreciate having a recommendation that lowers my car's safety rating in not allowing my car to top as fast or hold the road as well as expected when purchased. Did not purchase recommended tire for reason that I care for my family's safety.

You raise an excellent point, and this highlights why regulation needs to be updated and/or eliminated as technology changes and improves. The current method that is based on locked wheel braking and all modern vehicles have anti-lock brakes. A braking test based on anti-lock brakes measuring peak adherence rather than slide adherence is better suited for today’s vehicle. Michelin has chosen to design tires based on anti-lock braking which sometimes actually produces a lower locked wheel result.

Very pleased

I bought this tire in December after the first Michigan snow and couldn't be happier with it. Great slush an snow traction. And surprisingly smooth and quiet. Handling is good. Fortunately haven't had to stress test stopping. Mileage not noticeably impacted, but the it is winter. Would definitely recommend.

Smooth ride and improved fuel economy.

I bought a set of these tires just over a week ago for my 2018 Hoda Pilot. I could feel the difference as soon as I started driving. These are the best riding tires ever. The best mileage I have ever had on this vehicle is 26.1 mpg. I have driven over 1500 miles and now showing 27.0 mpg. About 1200 of these miles were on the interstate. I would highly recommend this tire.
