Better traction and the same smooth ride!

Have had the CrossClimate2 tires on my Toyota Venza for 6 months now. They have performed very well in dry, wet and hydroplaning conditions. They have also been excellent in both deep snow and heavy slush conditions. I do find that they kick up more road spray and are slightly noisier in the wheel well than my previous Michelins, which indicates to me that they are clearing more water/slush out of their footprint on the road. Fuel efficiency seems to be the same as my previous Michelins.

Noisy and uncomfortable ride

I have owned my Michelin Climate 2 tires for several months, and I am very disappointed. First off they are a very noisy Tire. Doesn't matter what speed you are going or what kind of road you're on. Secondly, they have a high rolling resistance. My mileage has dropped by 3 miles per gallon. Lastly, they are a terrible ride. You feel every bump and road imperfection.

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.

Cross Climate 2

I have just purchased these tires so I do not know about their tractiion or duribility or performance yet. I do know that they are comfortable under the floor boards. A very smooth ride. I hope they will get me through a mountain winter in Colorado.

Wonderful, well thought and striking tread design

I was really intrigued by the tread pattern, and at first thought that they could be a bit noisy. My mechanic said I would be surprised at how quite they are. I was replacing 4-year-old Michelins that I loved. And to my surprise these tires are almost silent compared to my previous ones! Well done, and the tire pattern has folks asking me about them frequently.

Amazing tires

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.

Wow, love these tires!!!

Have these on a 2019 Cadillac XT5 and love them! Only drove in light snow so far and they worked great. Amazing traction and breaking. In the rain, my SUV is like a tank. Goes through large puddles and standing water without any pull to one side or another. GReat ride on the highway. Quiet tires. Highly recommend.

No hydroplaning in torrential rain

Bought set of CrossClimate2 tires 2 years ago for 2017 Honda Civic. Only driven in Florida, so can only report on wet traction. We get some torrential downpours and they provide excellent traction with no hydroplaning which is essential for these light front wheel drive cars. I was so pleased with the performance that last month I bought another set for 2017 Volkswagen Golf Alltrack.

The Best ALL-IN-ONE TIRE!

After much research, The Cross Climate 2 was my choice. Extreme control and traction in the snow, slush, rain and on summer days from one tire, well four tires. lol 2007 Ford Mustang GT. Highly recommend you get these tires for your safety and everyone elses. Suprise snow storm? No problem. Torrential rain? Thunderstorm? No problem. Casual or Spirited Drivng? No problem. Get these tires! And yes, they ride quiet.

AMAZING Performance in Snow/Rain!

Purchased a set of CrossClimate 2 tires in September of 2022 for my 2012 Volvo XC90 to replace a set of worn Michelin Defenders which were great tires lasting 65,000 miles. My XC90 has 208,000 miles. 1 year and 40,000 miles later, the tires are at 7/32 with even wear. I perform rotations and balancing (if needed) every 5,000 miles. These tires have been AMAZING. They are quiet, provide amazing performance, and are wearing very well. I live in Minnesota and travel to Salt Lake City/Park City frequently. These tires are almost as good in the snow/ice as the Blizzaks I have on my 2017 Volvo XC90 in the cold months. Last winter was brutal, so drove many miles through a lot of snow/ice/slush/rain and had absolutely zero problems. They are PHENOMENAL in snow and rain, and great highway tires. They have tolerated chains in the mountains without any unusual wear. I have not had any decrease in fuel economy. I like them so much, I just replaced the Defenders on my other XC90 with a set of CrossClimate 2 tires. When it’s time, I’ll also put a set on my 2018 Volvo V60. Reading other reviews, I was reluctant to try these, but obviously my experience has been great. Perhaps my priorities are different because of the frequent severe weather I experience, but I love these tires.
