I have used these tires for years. Tire wear is slow, if you maintain proper air pressure. Traction is great in the snow, rain, cornering at speed and when riding on lined pavement (the tire design eliminates vehicle wobbling because of the cross design). I have the tires on our BMW, Mercedes and VW.

I bought 4 new CrossClimate 2 tires about 6 weeks ago and they are amazing, in rain, especially. My old tires would spin just taking off normally from a stoplight when the roads were wet. Now, they grip and take right off. Stopping is easier too. Definitely glad I made the investment in these tires!!

These are good in snow, rain, even had good luck on ice. But after only a couple of months I’ve noticed they’ve started pulling all the time. I’m constantly having to make small steering adjustments I’ve never had to do before. After looking online, seems like it’s a pretty common problem with these tires. Sorry I took the recommendation of the tire shop now…

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.

I bought 4 of these tires on April 19, 2023. The road noise from these tires were not the Michelin quality that I have known for 44 years. I went back to the retailer that I bought them from and had 4 Michelin Defenders replace these CrossClimate2 tires. I am very happy with the Defenders.

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.

This is my second set of these. Live in AZ, I avg 3,500-4,00 miles a month on HWY/CITY and even some crazy ranch dirt roads. They are by far some of the best tires that I’ve ever owned. They look great and perform as well as they look. My last set lasted being the 60k mile warranty and I’m not particularly kind to my tires, I take care of them, but I use them. I rely on my car for my living and I don’t trust any other tire out there right now.

I currently own 5 cars all with Michelin tires and these are by far the loudest tires I've ever had on any of my cars. This is a 2016 VOLVO XC70 the tires have plenty of tread left on then, 7/32 rear, 6/32 front. Have been rotated religiously, front and rear alignment is perfect. The car has been into the Volvo dealer to check for other problems, ie. bad CV joint or wheel bearing. Everything checks out in perfect working order. You can NOT hold a conversation in the car above 60 MPH the towing is so loud. Very disappointed we hoped these tires would be a good replacement for the Hydro Edge we had on previous wagons. My other cars have Pilot A/S 4 and PS4 tires and those are as quiet as a church mouse by comparison.

I bought these in September 2023 and was so excited to get them....heck even michelin makes them out to be the greatest thing since sliced bread but there's no mention of rolling resistance and rightfully so. Dropped my MPG so much that I had to return them and just to think this is the second generation with an improvement in rolling resistance I sure would hate to know what the previous generation was like. Michelin perhaps on the 3rd generation you can greatly lower the rolling resistance and than claim them to be the greatest thing since sliced bread.

After multiple sets of other brands wearing out in 25-30,000 miles on my Teslas, these currently have 56,000 on them and will easily make the 60,000 mile warranty. In addition, they have been at fantastic summer driving and winter snow tire, as I live a 9100' in the middle of Colorado ski country.
