After seeing the recommendations of many fellow Subaru Outback owners who use the CrossClimate 2 tires, I did my own research and decided to follow their lead. I could not be happier with these tires. After installation in the late autumn, we experienced two major snowfalls that put them to the test. The traction in slippery highway and side street conditions has been reassuring. The car, already good in such weather, is even better with the Michelins. Braking is assured. The ride is comfortable and quiet. It's still early days, but I am confident I made the right decision to buy the CrossClimate 2.

Drove through a winter storm and tires performed OK given the conditions. Could feel them slipping and sliding especially when going under overpasses. Maximum safe speed was approximately 40-45 mph on I-75 (posted speed limit was 75mph). Seem to handle snowy conditions well on side streets at lower speeds. Haven't slid through any stop signs.

I purchased these tires approximately one month ago. Did a some local driving around town and found the handling to be good and the overall comfort and noise level to be acceptable. This past week I did a long distance trip from NY to MI and back that was uneventful with clear driving going, and light snow and rain on the return trip. I would say the tires performed as expected for the entire trip. No surprises, that enabled driver confidence.

I purchased these tires based on all the high ratings they are receiving. The first issue for me was the load rating being 103 vs 99 and higher speed rating really changes how harsh the vehicle rides. The biggest issue was poor fuel mileage! I track my fuel economy and these tires cut it down between 3 to 5 miles per gallon! Driving them at the recommended tire pressure for the vehicle resulted in the poorest fuel mileage. Adjusting tire pressure higher helped fuel economy slightly and resulted in a harsh ride. After 4000 miles I purchased different tires from a competitor. Very dissatisfied!

Purchased first set on my other Lexus RX 350 a year ago and it was a very noticeable improvement - installed a second set on my other vehicle this month even before reaching the recommended minimum tread depth on the existing tires. We feel well protected and very pleased with the smooth ride and no road noise. Tire warranty of 60,000 miles also a plus. Best Michelin product I ever had and I'm nearly 80!

Half-life update (30,000 miles). After a fresh rotation and balance, the tires feel new. The 5300lb Lexus handles great with even wear on all four. I recommend these tires to all who would listen. The confidence in bad weather is worth the price. The tires were purchased 12/19/22.

I put these on my front wheel drive Toyota Sienna and my daughter’s AWD Nissan Murano and they traction in h snow and even sleet has been great! I just had the Toyota out in about 8 inches of snow and it walked right out of my driveway and up the hill. Highly recommend!

Tires work great in the snow of Pennsylvania. The Tires provide a nice smooth quiet ride. Excellent tire.

Great winter tire. Around 25000 mile they began getting progressively louder. It's now intolerable. Replacing.

The tires look great on my vehicle. The ride is very smooth. Handling is excellent especially on turns in the rain I would buy these again.
