I had Michelin Defenders for my Honda Ridgeline '17 (bought in Oct 22) they too were smooth and as I spend most of my time on the highway, they lasted a while. Now got the new Cross Climate 2 and I was impressed !! The tires are amazing, quiet, smooth and the truck handles a lot better. I would highly recommend them.

Amazing grip on the road yet a very comfortable smooth ride and quiet which some people had a different opinion on. Just look at the design of the thread. The design allows water and snow to easily dispense from the tire assuring full contact under those conditions. My wife and I just retired and want to have a as much of a long life live as possible after all that hard work in the trenches.

I purchased the tires Nov 2023. They handle excellent in snow and heavy rain with no hydroplaning. The only negative I have is they are noisy on the road especially on the rural roads where I live. But overall they handle every type of climate and would definitely purchase them again in the future.

Only about 300 miles so far but very satisfied. I don't understand the noise criticism being good and bad...can't be both but my limited experience is they are not overly noisy. Traction is not criticized by anyone so I'm expecting that to continue this winter in Illinois. So far so good!

I did not choose these CC2 tires for my new to me 2011 Volvo S60 T6 AWD. I found them noisy on smooth roads. On paved country roads that are not the best of surfaces you can feel and hear most small bumps. They transfer the noise and feel of road irregularities into the Vehicle cabin. We have purchased many sets of Michelins tires throughout my 60 years of driving. I’m 75 now. We buy Volvos and Mercedes and often have 4 to 5 cars licensed and insured ready to go. These CC2 are very new less than 5000km. I might switch them to another of our cars or hope they wear out soon. In the plus side they have good traction when cornering a bit aggressively. I guess I’ll have to wait until it rains to check out their wet characteristics.

I have finally found the perfect tire (cross climate 2). Living in the Martime's (Canada) which has the most changing weather patterns these tires deliver kilometer after kilometer on my Subaru Ascent, from heat and rain just confident in these tires getting me home safe and sound.

Just had them installed yesterday. I had forgotten how much of a difference new tires make. These CrossClimate2 tires are very quiet and have greatly improved the ride of our 2022 Grand Cherokee. Anxious to see how they perform this winter in the snow.

The Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires are a great tire. I'm really impressed with their traction in all weather conditions. I put winter tires on my wife's car and wanted an all season tire for my Volvo V60. The CrossClimate tire has exceeded my expectations in all weather conditions. The tires are quiet and give the care a comfortable ride. While at the same time have shown no wear after 10,000 miles. I would definitely recommend these tires to anyone looking for a superior all season tire.

My father always used Michelin's, but this is my first set. He was so right. The tires drive beautifully like floating on air. I thought my new car was rough until I had these tires installed. They hold the road extremely well. I am very pleased with this purchase.

this is my second pair of these tires. The first ones i loved sooo much. This pair, quite difficult. At first i thought they had a balancing issue, so i brought them back to be re-balanced. They still make my seats shake whike im driving. And the noise, they're quite noisy. I dont know what happened. Maybe they were in a rush on production day, but this pair made me hate these tires. As far as durability, i think thats the best part i cant complain about and the traction is good all over. But at the cost of wobbly seats and a very loud ride.
