Winter performance that rivals dedicated winter tires yet has summer performance.

Love these tires. Living ion the west coast of Canada the snowflake means they can stay on all year. Running now on both vehicles because I was tired of swapping out tires. But… on the Tesla I would like an option for the noise foam inclusion or a tech to tell me why it is not just default on all tires??

Great traction in snow, smooth ride on pavement!

I bought these after watching "Engineering Explained" on YouTube. I wanted a high quality snow tire that wouldn't be noisy on the interstate. I drive a 2002 Nissan Sentra SER Spec-v. It's a true manual transmission with no traction control and entirely too much power and only front wheel drive. I do delivery driving and have to often drive offroad and on gravel. They perform excellent on inclines and have amazing grab on gravel roads. I have been in situations where any other time I would have been stuck and these just chew right through the snow and pull. After 10k miles they're showing minimal wear, I'm very happy and impressed!

Lower MPG

I was averaging 40 to 41 miles per gallon in my RAV4 hybrid Limited with the OEM tires. I just installed a set of Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. These handle better than the OEM and are more surefooted on mountain roads. I read other CrossClimate2 owners were getting lower mpg so I raised the inflation 4 psi over the recommended pressure to see if that would help. Even with the higher pressure I’m now consistently averaging 34.5 MPG. 15% lower. EV’s and hybrid’s get a triple hit from high rolling resistance tires like the CrossClimate 2. First when running on gas only, Second from faster battery drain while using battery power only and a third from a loss in regeneration to recharge the battery when coasting or braking.

jbassoc, you make some good points, also new tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires.  As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases.  Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve. In addition, there is also the Michelin Promise Plan that offers a 60 day satisfaction guarantee. If you are not completely satisfied with your new set of Michelin tires, just return to the selling retailer to exchange them for a new set of equal or lesser value.

Great Tire with Outstanding Reviews.

Excellent Ride and performance! When I was researching tires to purchase the Michelin Cross Climate 2 stood out because of the number of reviews. I found that on the 4 tire stores near me, the Cross Climate 2 had almost 5k reviews 4.8 rating. No other tire came close with number of reviews. This was a testament of the excellence of this tire!

Great tires but with two caveats

Excellent tires but with two caveats: expect 10% hit on the gas mileage and significant variation in road noise increase depending on the road surface types. I have a hybrid and mileage dropped from 40 average to 36 (verified in 5 full tank cycles). The road noise at or above 60m/h varied on road surfaces in highways, ranging from 60 to 76 dB (while my old Mxv4s had max around 64, with little or no dependency on highway surface types).

CrossClimate2 outstanding so far

Like some of you I read in Consumer Reports that the CrossClimate2 is a top-rated all-season tire, and I also watched videos like the one from Engineering Explained on youtube. I also read reviews here. Even after all that, I wondered what these tires would really be like. My previous tire was a Goodyear Eagle LS-2 that was the OEM tire for my 2018 Acura TLX. The Goodyears had 46k miles on them, but they still had plenty of tread left and were only three years old, but I wanted to replaced them because I wasn't happy with their performance in any season—dry, wet, or in snow. And so I was looking for a major performance and safety upgrade to justify the expense of early tire replacement. I'll give details below, but long story short the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires are outstanding so far. I've been driving since 1980, and I've driven most of the major tires brands over the years, and so far these are the best tires I've ever owned. Quietness: This is the one area where the Goodyear Eagle has a small edge, but the CrossClimate2 is still a quiet tire that's good for a luxury car. And actually the CrossClimate2 is much quieter around corners. The Goodyears in moderate cornering would squeal in protest, and make it seem like I was 1970s cop show or something trying to make a dramatic get away. The CC tires are no drama tires in comparison. Comfort: About equal. Both very comfortable. Interestingly the CrossClimate2 seems a bit better at handling speed bumps. MPG: About the same as the Goodyear Eagle. This was a surprise, because I was prepared to give up 2-3 mpg for a better tire, but the mpg seems to be about the same for me. Obviously ymmv. Lateral grip: Wow. Big difference. Where as mentioned the Goodyear Eagle tires were squealing for mercy at moderate speeds around corners, and seeming like they might even lose grip, the Michelin tires are great in comparison. No drama. Excellent road grip in corners. More fun to drive. Major upgrade. Safer. Took some twisting 2-lane country roads I'm quite familiar with, as well as a steeply banked cloverleaf onramp that's a favorite, and it's clear the Michelin tires are on a whole different level. It feels like you're riding on rails with the CrossClimate2. Stopping distance: Didn't try a panic stop, but going downhill on a familiar country road with no one behind me I did a rapid stop from a good speed up to a stop sign, and the CC tires seemed to stop significantly faster and with greater confidence. On center feel: This was a surprise, but perhaps because of the directional V pattern of the tread it seems like the on-center feel for the new tires is much better. I like the road feel. I feel more connected to the car and to the road with the Michelin tires. I've only owned these tires for a few days and about 300 miles so far, and the conditions have been dry, and so I'm not sure at some point I'll get to try out the two probably strongest areas for the CC tires—wet traction and snow traction. Right now I'm feeling confident the tires will live up to expectations. Overall, the CrossClimate2 tires seem like a great upgrade, and well worth the money if you are looking for a premium all-season tire with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating.

Great wet weather handling

I bought these tires 4 mths ago. I live in south Florida and have had to drive thru wet roads with lots of traffic. They stop extremely well with no aquaplaning on my Toyota highlander. Noise is not overly loud. I have put 4,500 miles on the tires so far. I am very happy with the purchase.

PERFECT FLORIDA TIRE!!!

Best tires I've ever purchased! Yes they're expensive, but its worth it. We live in Florida so traction and comfort are what's needed here. When it rains, you can't even tell water on the road, also the stopping power is legit as well! We love these tires, as does my parents.

A tire for the serious worker.

I drive a Ram Promaster City Front Wheel Drive minivan for a large company in the photostatic industry. The stock tires that came on it, were a joke, even on a small patch of ice. So I shopped around for an all-season tire, since my company + leasing company will not allow snow tires. Imperative, in my book (ex tire-jock), is that they had the 3 Mountain Peak / Snowflake symbol, because I have put such tires on my personal vehicles, and never looked back. Well, I've got these about a month ago, and have been over Powder River Pass at least twice on packed snow, and ice... and have busted drifts out on I-25 several times to get to my tasks, and they have not failed to provide unparalleled traction, and give me a lot more confidence in my work vehicle. I will be switching to these tires on my other vehicles, as soon as their current tires wear out.

Very secure tire.

I bought these a year and a half ago. They were purchased prior to winter driving, with the idea of swapping them out for snow tires if needed. They have performed well in winter conditions for the last two years without changing them out. We also have issues with water pooling on the highway. These handle the situation well, without a hint of hydroplaning. They feel more secure than more expensive tires.
