I had Michelin Defenders for my Honda Ridgeline '17 (bought in Oct 22) they too were smooth and as I spend most of my time on the highway, they lasted a while. Now got the new Cross Climate 2 and I was impressed !! The tires are amazing, quiet, smooth and the truck handles a lot better. I would highly recommend them.

I am a faithful Michelin user for 30 plus years (driving 64 yrs) on light pickups, full size cars and mid size cars, utility van, have a Yukon XL 4 WD with 264,000 miles that has never had anything other than Michelin. I have never been disappointed with Michelin tires until now. Put a set of Cross Climate 2 on a 2017 Ford Escape at 51,638 miles and the car handles great, like an expensive sports car. However the tires are excessively noisy to the point I thought something was wrong with the car, the wheels or what ever. I paid three different tire shops to evaluate, one of which is my primary tire dealer and they all concluded nothing wrong with the car, it's the tires. It sounds like a pickup with a cheap set of worn out tires which I have owned before. The Cross Climate 2 will easily last 60,000 miles or more on this vehicle which means we must tolerate the noise another minimum 36,940 miles until time for a new set of tires. The tires perform very well as advertised with the exception of the noise. The noise is disappointing and embarrassing, especially when we have guest onboard. Photos upon request.

In the summer of 2021 I spent many hours researching tires for the Mitsubishi Outlander Sport that the daughter would soon be taking to college in Maine. The 32 hour drive from Texas to Maine, on mostly dry roads (all highway) was very nice, I do believe that these tires are quieter that the Bridgestones that they replaced. And if there was any change in mpg, I did not notice it. As to their performance in winter conditions, I will give you the daughters report of driving on the snow covered roads in maine…....(it seemed fairly positive to me)..…. “ it’s like driving a tank”. Kudos to the designers and builders. Please continue offering this outstanding tire. When one of our babies is that far away, it gives us Dads a little more peace of mind…….

The Michelin CrossClimate 2 are great all-season tires with a strong grip, smooth handling, and solid snow performance. They last long, rides quietly, and work well in most weather. They are a bit pricey, but absolutely worth it for safety and durability. Not a full winter tire, but great for year-round use.

I think that this is a great tire! I replaced my Michelin Defenders with the Cross Climate 2. The traction seems much better and I haven’t noticed a significant interior noise increase from them in comparison. At first, based on some reviews, I had some concerns. Also, no matter the tread left on older tires, I consider the age of a tire to be very important to me. Nearing six years, I will replace older tires. The comfort of these tires is perfectly fine. And, living in Minnesota, the versatility is important to me. A disabled veteran.

Bought these 23 months ago. Used on a 2010 Rav4 V-6. also upgraded to an 18-8 inch rim to run a larger stock size and they run awesome! Mostly dry weather, but rain in AZ can be heavy and they do well. Also great traction for all season if in some snow. Seem to be wearing very well, but I keep up on checking pressures and rotations.

The original tires on my 2017 Kia Sportage gave up. The tread was still good but the tread had separated from the body of the tire. All four! At least they were consistent. I have had really good luck with Michelin tires in the past, and I expect good service from these. Also they seem to maintain their pressure better with change in temperatures.

Had these tires on for a year now. They handle and ride fantastically !! Very smooth on the road and I just love the look of them. I find them to be a much better tire than my previous All Season Tires. These tires were purchased for my car. When my SUV is ready for new tires I will definitely be purchasing CrossClimate's.

We had little winter here this year but was impressed with traction and aggressive tracks in what snow we did have. Very confident of tires. Taking them off for summer to finish of standard ties that came with vehicle, and noticed a huge difference. Looking forward to the return in the fall!

I hesitated due to the cost, but purchased them for winter use on the store recommendation. They are simply awesome in the rain; turning, stopping... After having them on my last vehicle (MB E500 wagon) , I plan on buying them again for my current car (MB GLK350) as soon as I need tires.
