Just got these yesterday. The ride quality is very good. Stopping, quick lane changes, curved entrance and exit ramps all good. However there is a rumbly sound. Its is evident at low speed like in a parking lot or neighborhood or at interstate speeds it gets more noticable as you go faster.

I have a 2019 Mazda CX-9 Signature and want to put these on it but the largest tire listed is 245/50R20. The stock OEM Falkens on the car are 255/50R20. When will Michelin have these CrossClimate2 tires in my size? I really prefer Michelins and only want to go to All Weather Tires for this car.

Drove 17,000 miles cross country on these tires. They are good for paved roads, but the moment you hit any sort of gravel drivway, dirt road to campground or sandy path they REALLY suck. My car is not an offroad vehicle but on occasion we would have to take a gravel road or drive to an established campsite on dirt or sand these tires have horrible traction. The whole car shifts side to side when breaking. I have not used these in the snow but I don't plan to as they cannot even handle a little sand in the street.

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.

I had these tired installed on a 3000 lbs curb weight wagon/hatchback, about 6 months ago and have been very impressed. Typically with funny wheel drive, starting on a hill on wet pavement involves lots of patience to get going without sitting there spinning the tires. That is greatly reduced with these tires! They are just as impressive in the snow. I drove up a steep street, without being able to get much momentum due to pedestrians sledding in the street, with about 6 inches of snow that was semi-compact having been driven on by a 4 or 5 vehicles. There was some wheelspin, but I was controlling it and didn't lose momentum. The only con is a little hit to fuel economy, which isn't as bad after they break in. They are also great on roads that have that slick liquid de-icer applied, and have not hydroplaned once, in northwest washington state.

1 month ago, I installed a set of 4 on my 2019 Toyota Highlander. Even just pulling out of the tire lot, I could tell instantly that the ride was incredible. Made a trip from Cincinnati to Myrtle Beach the next day. Highway speeds only reaffirmed that these tires felt like riding on a pillow top mattress! The most comfortable, BEST tires I've ever had, and I've tried ALL high end tires over the years. We did hit the rain storms at highway speeds and these tires did not disappoint! The wet traction was amazing with zero hydroplaning. Of course I drove responsibly in heavy rain but these tires sliced right through heavy highway puddles with ease, with no loss of traction. Vehicle stopping distance has also somehow improved as these tires seem to really stop easier at normal braking. Also at emergency braking... just this week another driver pulled right out in front of me around a curve where I was going about 45mph. I braked hard.. no, I mean hard, like where everything on every seat flies into the floor and your family's faces flash before your eyes. The ABS of course activated, and these tires stopped on a dime! Thank God for Michelin. I've already bought a second set for one of my other vehicles. Thank you Michelin, for making THE best tires I've ever driven on.

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.

I can’t count how many sets of Michelin tire I have purchased. Bought these for a Ford Transit Connect Titanium wagon. Spent numerous hours sound proofing it. Van is light and has basic suspension. Therefore asked for the best tire, irrespective of price, that would provide a smooth and quite ride, while providing good winter traction. The ride in now rough/stiff. Despite all the sound proofing, the road/tire noise is very pronounced, especially though the front struts. There is now a vibration that comes through the steering wheel, particularly at slower speeds, and to add insult to injury, the gas mileage is off a solid 10%. They do provide good winter traction, but so do the Michelin tires I put on my daughters car this summer, without all the downsides.

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!

Placed these on 2019 equinox and love them. Great stopping traction and great handling. Noise level is low when comparing it to an all terrain tire but low compared to a highway tire. Don’t really care about mpg so don’t notice but still close to same mileage per tank during fuel ups. Have put 15k miles on them and can’t even notice a change. Great traction on road dry or wet pavement and good off road use for gravel dirt and grass. Not a mud tire so never tried.
