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

The traction, durability, and performance are on par with any good tire - I typically only purchase Michelin or Bridgestone tires. However, I found them to be very load. I spoke to the owner of a local tire shop, my car was in for an inspection, he confirmed this tire is very popular and that other also had the same issue. Even though I did not need tires, I ordered a new set due to the road noise.

This is the first full set of Michelin tires I have ever bought for any of my automobiles. It is really true that, "you get what you pay for". These tires are so quiet and smooth riding compared to any other brand I have had. Even in the rain you can barely hear these tires compared to other. I am very well pleased with the purchase of these Michelin tires, Great Quality, thank you.

I bought these for my 2012 Suzuki SX4. After about 3 months later, I just slapped a pair on my 2011 Subaru Legacy. These tires a "meaty" and, while I have lost some MPGs, they are my favorite tire I've had on either car. I've put them to the test several days and nights driving in snow and ice and they haven't let me down yet. I'll be trekking around the mountains of Colorado this summer and see how they do in all the heat.

We were suffering from loud tire noise in our 2017 Kia Sportage with 40k miles on OEM tires. We tried balancing, rotating, etc numerous times in the last 2 years since we had plenty of tread life remaining we wanted to avoid buying new tires. However Costco techs and my research indicated these CrossClimate 2 were very quiet. We bought these and I was shocked the car sounds and handles like a different car. After one month of driving I am happy to report these are exceptionally quiet. I would definitely buy again.

I have used Michelin tires on most vehicles for years. I saw reports on these particular tires, and with the tires on my Chevrolet Equinox nearing the end of their lives, I sought and found a set of these. I have driven on them quite a few times not, including on wet pavement and found their stopping to be excellent and their ride smooth.

The title says it all. I run these tires daily and for my rallycross tire setup. They are not tearing up on dirt/gravel at all. I am able to run these for multiple sessions. Being a service advisor and seeing all of the different types of tires quite often.. Michelin has earned me being Michelin Biased when recommending tires.

Bought these last summer in preparation for this winter. It gave me a few months to also see how these performed as everyday tires. Overall, I am very pleased with these tires. On dry and wet pavement I have received good handling and traction. This morning, where I am (Fort Collins, CO), the city was surprised with a bit of a dump. The forecast was for a trace of snow, but I woke up to 5 inches. The city was caught off guard and had not prepared the streets by pre-applying mag chloride. So the morning commute was through 5 inch snow on the residential streets and tracks and a layer of ice on the main arterials. I had no problem negotiating any of it with these tires with the exception of starting from a standing stop where I got a little bit of spin where it was ice. But then, the 4WD and AWD vehicles had the same thing. Shout out to these drivers, the ones I saw realize that 4WD helps you go, but doesn't help you stop. Everyone was driving for the conditions and I saw no accidents on my 6 mile commute. About the only 'con' I have seen is a reduction of gas mileage. In the city, I've had about a 10% reduction in mileage. On the highway, not so much. But I bought these as an everyday all season tire that will get me through those few storms that Colorado receives. I've been very happy with them and unless Michelin or someone else comes out with a better tire, I will purchase another set when these wear out.

I bought these tires 2 years ago. There a few people here saying that tires don’t perform in snow I really don’t know what there talking about. We have a couple stretches in Vancouver were the snow was really bad and these tires were super amazing on snow especially being in a cul ta sac My Suv ran trough deep snow like nothing and had excellent traction on main road in slushy weather. The performance in rain and dry weather was excellent definitely the best tires I’ve ever had on any vehicle I owned I would highly recommended it.

Had these installed on our 2014 VW Passat TDI and got to test them on the highway in a torrential downpour for many miles. VERY impressed. No hydroplaning whatsoever and they felt very surefooted. Was concerned that the tread pattern might be a little noisy in the cabin of the car but not the case at all. At this point, I would buy Michelin Crossclimate 2s again. Will see how they stand up durability wise as the miles/kms increase.
