Great tires for all weather conditions

I purchased a set of these tires for my Santa Fe in April 2022 in preparation for a cross-country road trip. I immediately experienced a MUCH quieter ride. On the trip itself I encountered a wide range of weather conditions: hot and windy, light rain and heavy rain, and snow/ice. These tires handled it all with aplomb. Another reviewer mentioned a decrease in mpg with these tires, and that may be the case, albeit only a slight decrease in my case. For me, the improved footing over a wider range of weather conditions is worth it.

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.

Great smooth ride with very good steering input.

I just got these tires installed and they don't ride they glide over thr road with very good steering input and soft smooth ride. They are less noisy than the Michelin defenders I had before. Will know more after a few thousand miles but my initial impression were wow. What a smooth ride. Michelin has consistently made good tires and have never disappointed me or left me stranded.

All four sidewalls split

All four tires had sidewall separation prior to reaching 60,000 miles. They were only two and a half years old. I had at least another years worth of tread left. The traction they offered was great, I never got stuck in the snow after getting these tires. Originally these tires were so good, I recommended them to family and friends. Four of them bought the tires. I am no longer recommending these tires. I received zero support from michelin, I was told it is probably ozone damage....2 1/2 year old tire.

Vehicle ride is upgraded.

The handling on my 2016 Civic improved, the ride is quiet, and driving in a downpour was without any drama. Stopping is seamless, road grip is outstanding. The car turns flatter, poor street conditions are smoothed out (quite a feat for Chicago!) and I'm happy with the purchase.

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.

So far so good

So far with few hundred miles the tires are great. Had some ice/snow and they did well. In the past I have had poor luck with Michelin tires in general. But bases on consumer reports ratings I decided to give the Cross Climate 2 a chance. I will report back after 5 thousand miles.

Great tires - Answers to common complaints!

People seem to be getting confused about a couple points: 1. Wandering / Poor tracking: this tends to happen with untrained staff mounting all four tires on the wheels one direction, which makes directional tread patterns like these backwards on one side of the car, which results in poor tracking and wandering. I have had tire shops do this, and it feels exactly how some "disappointed" reviewers are describing their performance. 2. Poor MPG: Michelin has replied here to a bunch of people that fresh tire compounds result in lower mpg at first. That's not untrue necessarily, but so far people have ignored that new tires are physically larger than worn tires, even at the same nominal size. The worn tires are giving artificially high MPG figures (they aren't going as far as the odometer says), and the new ones are often giving artificially low figures (going farther than the odometer says, since they are often set for an average tire age), so jumping from worn to new makes it falsely appear that there is a significant MPG difference. So, don't get it twisted! These are great tires, especially in wet environments. Even at double the price of standard "used car grade" tires, I bought two more sets of these, so every car would be as safe and comfortable. I only wish they came in a light truck load rating so I could feel better taking them on forest roads.

Michelins For the Win(ter)

Bought CC2 to replace OEM tires on Subaru Outback after dealer tried to sell different brand with MAJOR markup. Traction (particularly in snow and ice on slopes) and road noise are dramatically better with these tires! Definitely worth slight cost increase, and would buy another set without reservation.

Smoothest ride Ive ever had in an SUV

Bought these about six weeks ago. At the time I asked the salesman for the smoothest riding tire on the road and he suggested the Michelin CrossClimate 2. I couldn’t believe the difference they have made on my SUV. It rides more like a car than a truck. I am thrilled with these new tires
