My mechanic snickered when I said I wanted this tire. Who's laughing now, San Antonio?!?!??!!!! A full week of winter! Five inches of snow and ice, and I have these on a 2008 Scion xB. Feels great to be able to bring supplies to people stranded with no water, food, first aid supplies, etc. . . My car hasn't skidded or hydroplaned whatsoever. Feels very solidly "on" the road, as tires displace snow and ice. I've never had tires feel this dependable beneath a car!

Only about 300 miles so far but very satisfied. I don't understand the noise criticism being good and bad...can't be both but my limited experience is they are not overly noisy. Traction is not criticized by anyone so I'm expecting that to continue this winter in Illinois. So far so good!

Michelin CrossClimate2 Tire Review After more than a month and approximately 1000 miles of driving, I’m sharing my experience with the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires. ADVANTAGES: - Versatile Performance: The Michelin CrossClimate tires have exceptional traction, especially in wet weather and heavy water on the road, it is crucial for those of us living in Florida - Long Tread Life: Michelin claims a long tread life for these tires - 60K Miles Warranty: While I hope I won’t need it, having a 60,000-mile warranty provides peace of mind - Quiet Operation: Contrary to some reviews, I found these tires to be quiet during my drives. - Distinctive Design: The unique design sets them apart from many other tires. DISADVANTAGES: - Increased Fuel Consumption: Immediately after installation, I noticed a substantial increase in gas consumption—up to 20% compared to my previous OEM tires. After approximately 1000 miles, this improved to 10-15%. However, it’s still a significant impact! Given the already high cost of these tires, it’s important to take into account the additional expense resulting from increased fuel consumption. SUMMARY: The performance of the Michelin CrossClimate tires is very good, prioritizing safety and hopefully longevity, as claimed by Michelin. However, for my next tire purchase, I’ll be seeking similar performance without the negative impact on gas consumption.

I bought my tires a month ago to replace another brand that I was not happy with. I have been a lifelong Michelin fan, but the previous time I changed tires I went with something cheaper. I have not been happy with the other brand at all and they didn't even come close to lasting their claimed mileage. Michelin's are the only brand for me!

So I drive for a living as a courier and purchase tires every couple of years. This is my third set of CrossClimate's and the grip and handling is such a huge upgrade from the stock tires that come on the vehicles. It's always a little stark because as tires get to the end of their life, you feel them lose their grip in wet and dry situations, but they roll very easy which leads to the best mileage you'll ever get in a vehicle. When swapping to these you instantly notice the grip on turns, how straight the car stays even when tires slightly spin in the rain, and the significantly shorter stopping distance. I typically drop about 4-5 mph in small sedans upon initial switching, but the safety advantages make driving so much easier on my mind! We've had these on a 2020 Honda Civic Hatchback, a 2015 Toyota Sienna Minivan, and now on my 2023 VW Jetta. The improved performance and safety was felt immediately when switching from all the vehicles previous tires, including another Michelin in the van. So while I wish they rolled a little better for gas mileage, I still have to give them 5 stars for overall performance and safety! *They are also very quiet!

I purchased these tires in September 2021. I did a lot of online research and the reviews were very positive on the traction of these tires in the rain and snow. Since I purchased them for my winter car (in Michigan) this was a huge determination in purchasing these tires. I have been very disappointed in the grip in the rain and snow. The tires easily spin when not even giving the vehicle (Dodge Journey) much gas. I paid a premium for these tires and would not purchase again based on performance.

Bought these tires a week ago and it has rained ever since. Traction is great. Had to stop at a light on a hill, the car in front of me spun his tires when the light turned green, I got going right away. Quieter ride than previous OEM tires. Liking these tires so far

I purchased 4 Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires in December of 2020, and have driven over 9,000 miles on the tires in various weather and on various highway conditions. After doing a lot of online research, I decided to purchase the Michelin tires. I have purchased four sets of Michelin tires in the past for other cars which I have owned. The CrossClimate 2 were the most expensive tires out of the tires I researched but I still purchased the Michelin's due to my past experience with the Michelin tires. I have not been disappointed with my purchase and the performance and handling of the CrossClimate 2 tires. I live in western Pennsylvania and the winter we had last year was very snowy. At times, I was driving in 6 inches of unplowed roads and had no problems. I really like the handling and feel on wet roads and how the tires channel water out on water covered roads. The ride is smooth and quiet with minimal road noise from the highway surface. After about a year of driving on the CrossClimate 2 tires, these tires have shown only slight wear. Overall, the Cross Climate 2 tires have lived up to my expectations for a premium crossover/SUV touring all season tire and worth the extra money I paid compared to the other touring all season tires.

These Tires are being pushed as Wonderful, and were hyped by the Dealer, and were in Short Supply. Got a set, had them Mounted. Car previously had Michelin Premier LTXs, and had about 75,000km on them, and were down to 4.5/16 in, and Winter was upon us. The Old Tires, while they would spin when in 2wd, did surprisingly well in awd. In fact, I didn't notice any difference between them and the CC2s in AWD, 2WD was better with the CC2s. What I didn't like was that the Fuel Economy went in the Toilet. The Old Tires were giving me, on average 9.6liters/100km, the CC2s average at best 11.8liters/100km, that is about a 20% less fuel Economy. In city driving, that number shoots up to 14liters/100km. After 6 months of these Gas Guzzlers, and a Nail in the Sidewall, I am replacing them with Michelin Defender2s

These tires are a bit on the pricey side but so far after 8 months of travel I am pleased with the product. After doing a copious amount of research these tires perform as touted by Michelin. Ideal for the climate here in eastern Ontario. I had concerns initially that the tread pattern would cause a noisy tire but thus far road noise is acceptable
