I bought the H speed rated instead of the V hoping to get a softer ride. The 19 rims on the 2015 Lexus RX 350 don’t ride very well. Impressive stopping ability. I mean impressive. Good grip on wet roads. Handles well. Fuel mileage dropped 2mpg. After 18 months I’m pleased with the wear. Very smooth ride on smooth surfaces. Harsh on really bad roads. One tire made an awful noise constantly. Warranty replacement fixed that problem. Almost silent on smooth roads. These tires must be difficult to manufacture. Enormous differences from tire to tire in the amount of wheel weights needed to get them balanced. I’ve never had a set of tires that needed this many wheel weights. Correctly balanced the car is smooth at 85 MPH. Outside of the fuel mileage drop they are outstanding tires.

I should say up front that I have personally driven well over a half a million miles on multiple sets of Michelin pick-up truck and auto tires over the past thirty years, and have been very impressed with the ride, performance, and durability of every set. Much of those miles were on interstate highways, with lots of surface street travel. So when I bought a set of four Cross Climate II's three months ago I was very interested in the Cross Climate II tread design and a bit excited to see how it would perform. Well lets just say I was not disappointed. The first week was dry highway and surface roads, the tires felt great! as have all my previous sets of Michelin tires have. I did get a chance early on to checkout the side wall stability at high speed when I had to dodge some significant road debris (a semi truck leaf spring) at highway speed (75mph). The Cross Climate II's responded with true stability and easily passed the high speed road debris dodge test with flying colors. On the third week I was able to check them out in a major down pour, I drove into a rain storm doing 75 mph. I initially cut my speed back to 60 mph to get a feel of tires meeting the very wet road surface, and they felt great. So with no traffic around I tilted the wheel back and fourth slightly to feel the tread stability while driving on water, and they felt glued to the road, so I being a bit of risk taker I took the speed back up to 75mph and the performance was the same; excellent! So that brings me to today my first drive of the year through three or four inches of icy wet heavy snow, tracking was very good through lane changing. The Cross Climate II's handled the snow and slush with no problem. The Cross Climate II Michelin tires deserve five stars and two thumbs up in my book! In closing this review I tell a little story about some advise I overheard when I was younger working American. I overheard a older work colleague say there was two purchases where quality was imperative and he would never go cheap on; shoes and mattresses, because if not in one your in the other. So when I started driving and purchasing tires I added tires to his adage, so there are three things where quality was imperative and I would never go cheap on; shoes, mattresses and tires, because if not in / on one your in / on the other.

Finally, one tire that does it all. North Central Connecticut, two winters now haven’t had to worry about them. Haven’t had to buy two sets of tires. Slightly more noise, but nothing bothersome. These are on a 2015 Accord LX. These are basically set it and forget it tires. Wet, dry, snow, predictable everywhere.

I got these tires for my 2011 Honda CR-V. I loved the quiet ride and it felt like I had a new car. I waited until mid-winter so I could see how they handled our North Dakota cold and snow. I’ve been quite impressed with how they’ve handled all kinds of weather. So, I just bought another set of four for my wife’s 2017 Toyota RAV4.

Excellent traction and stopping power better than any others tires and I only buy Michelin tires. At first I wasn’t happy with the design because they are directional tires which means they can only be rotated front to back and back to front. The original tires only lasted less than 32,000 miles. I admit I could go further but I don’t take chances on the last 3/32” of tread left. I highly suggest these tires.

Best tire I ever bought. I know I just put them on, but my immediate reaction was wow! These tires are so soft and quiet, it's hard to believe you're traveling at freeway speed. There is no road noise. The ride is like driving on a road of cotton. I read reviews ad nauseam. I kept going back and forth between the CrossClimate SUV, CrossClimate2, and the Primacy MXM4. I believe I made the right choice. Time will tell how well these wear and how smooth and quiet they remain, but initially, these are great tires.

I’m on my second set of the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires on my 2016 Ford edge. Living in Maine, these are by far the absolute best tires I’ve had on my vehicle in over 40 years. Unbelievable traction on snow and ice, rain, and water on the roadway. The ride is quiet and highly responsive. I recommend these to anyone.

I am a person that has been told I am OCD over my tires, and I telll my mechanic I am picky when it comes to tires. Having said that, I have put on about 20,000 miles on my CrossClimate 2’s that I made my mechanic go and find and I would buy these again in a heartbeat. Even as they age, the traction and confidence in wet are remarkable almost as if there is no rain or snow below you. Stopping distance is terrific with these tires and they ride like a dream! The only cons that I’ve found are a 3-5% reduction in mpg (I have an HEV) and one tire continuously looses about 5psi 2-6 weeks.

I bought these a month ago and they have been great in the snow and on dry pavement. The grip it has during turns is fantastic. I personally like the look it gives my vehicle. Took long road trips over the Holidays and our family felt safe the entire time. Haven't had them for summer yet so we will see. As of now we love the CrossClimate 2 Michelin Tires.

Purchased in Sept 2021. Very nice ride for 2019 Forester. Tires have howling noise at 25-35 mph then noise goes away with deeper tread noise. Dealer insists it is tires and not car. Overall very happy except for the around town howling noise. Have same tires on another 2015 Forester and noise is barely audible.
