- 3 out of 5 stars review8/1/2026These tires come highly recomended by the dealer but i find in water my Suv wants to hydroplane. i have had two sets of this type of tires. They wear, seem to drive decent in snow but just not great in the rain.

Hydroplan... - 5 out of 5 stars review7/30/2026This is my second set on my 21 Toyota Highlander v6 AWD. I got 71550 miles and still had tread just above the wear bar, but put a new set on with winter coming. I also replaced my wife's tires on her new CX90 Turbo PP. great tires!
Happy Cross Climate 2 customers
MarkOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review7/29/2026Tire have gone thru 20000 miles and i could not be happier. They have held the road perfectly on dry roads, snowy roads and during heavy rain. Have held tire pressure without loss even on NYC roads. The tires look like they did when first installed
Larrys review
LarryOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 2 out of 5 stars review9/27/2021Just got those tires a week ago from Subaru dealership. I drive a Subaru ascent touring. The positive: quiet ride and good grip. The negative: there is an absolutely annoying vibration that occurs at greater than 72 miles. Took it back to the Subaru dealership for rebalancing ( one week tires) . I was told those tires are expected to do that and this is why they don't have it in stock ( they had to get them them from their regional warehouse). I have at least 3 trips of 2 hours plus a month on the Kansas turnpike (75 mph speed limit) and i am REALLY not looking forward for the next 3 years….
Vibrates at high speed

They are extremely quiet and provide a soft and comfortable ride. We were in the mountains when a deer ran out in front of us and because of the way the tires responded we were able to avoid hitting the deer. It felt like we were in a sports car instead of an SUV. On wet roads, it feels like we are driving on dry pavement. I would definitely recommend this tire.
Excellent tires. Smooth, quiet, very responsive.
Louie54Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review12/2/2022I 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...
Smooth, quiet, ferocious stopping ability.
KeithcOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 2 out of 5 stars review3/30/2026After nearly a year of use, I've started to notice that this tire is getting quite loud. In fact, I can feel the vibrations when I'm driving at speeds of 40-90 km/h. On a more positive note, the tire performed exceptionally well during its first winter. The traction was excellent on both snowy and icy roads. I'm curious to see how it will perform in its second winter.
Traction is great on both snowy and icy roads.
JaytongsOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/2/2026This is the second set of Cross Climate 2's that I have purchased. The first set gave us 63,000 plus miles of hassle free driving. That's why I bought them again when it came time to replace the first set. Excellent in the snow and rain which happens a lot in Maine.
Excellent tires for New England weather!
KP 60Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 3 out of 5 stars review1/9/2023Just bought these tires and did a 4,000 mile road trip form midwest to Oregon coast. Tires rode and handled well in through the mountains and cold damp roads. This big problem is that my fuel mileage dropped around 20%. I used to get 23-26mpg on the highway depending on the winds. With these tires, the highest I got was 21mpg with a tailwind. Average on the trip was 18-20mpg. I want to like these tires, but can't with a 20% fuel mileage hit.
Nice tire, horrible fuel mileage

There are ot... - 5 out of 5 stars review10/20/2023Purchased a set of CrossClimate 2 tires in September of 2022 for my 2012 Volvo XC90 to replace a set of worn Michelin Defenders which were great tires lasting 65,000 miles. My XC90 has 208,000 miles. 1 year and 40,000 miles later, the tires are at 7/32 with even wear. I perform rotations and balancing (if needed) every 5,000 miles. These tires have been AMAZING. They are quiet, provide amazing performance, and are wearing very well. I live in Minnesota and travel to Salt Lake City/Park City frequently. These tires are almost as good in the snow/ice as the Blizzaks I have on my 2017 Volvo XC90 in the cold months. Last winter was brutal, so drove many miles through a lot of snow/ice/slush/rain and had absolutely zero problems. They are ...
AMAZING Performance in Snow/Rain!
Army65DOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/16/2026We love our new Michelin cross climate 2 tires. We have had these almost 4 months now and have been through many weather tests. Great grip on wet roads and excellent grip in the snow. Braking is very good on both. They run quieter and absorb road abnormalities around the city and on the highway better than the Pirelli tires we had before these. Very smooth. Well worth the slightly higher price than other premium tires in our opinion. Very happy with our purchase.
Superior performance
Ted66Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/8/2022I've been driving on these tires for 12,000 miles. These tires work extremely well in heavy rain with no hydroplaning at all. Barley can get these tires to break free under heavy acceleration. Tried them out in 6 inches of snow, they worked extremely well for an AS tire. Great acceleration and braking traction. Tracked very straight when at speed. In the dry, they feel like a Performance Summer tire. They are a little noisy in the first 3000 miles, now they sound great. I recommend these tires to all my friends and family. I have been using Bridgestone 980 AS, for 3 sets, and these are far better. Used on a 2019 Hyundai Elantra Sport FWD.
Perfect All Season Tires, Especially in Rain and Snow!
XB12XTOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/19/2023I bought these two months ago and have a couple thousand miles on them. They are far superior to the OEM Pirellis as you don't feel every bump in the road and are much quieter. In addition, the traction has been excellent on wet and dry pavement. Initially, I looked at these, and another brand, and the retailer told me to get these "hands down." He was 100% correct.
Great tires. Wouldn't hesitate to buy them again.
Big FishOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/8/2024Bought new for my Subaru Outback after extensive research. Met my expectations and more when driving in snow on Donner Summit in Tahoe in blizzard. Highway shut down while cars were stuck, spinning out, not equipped, I drove with confidence and safely made it to my destination. Great tire!
Snow Beasts
Tahoeboy22Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review4/28/2023I have a 2019 Chevy Blazer. Bought these tires at the start of the Winter and could not be happier. We had record snowfall totals for the Winter her in MN and the tires performed exceedingly well! Great control and amazing stopping power! I saw no perceptible change in gas mileage. Just got back from a 4,000 mile road trip and mileage on the highway was just as good if not better than when I had the factory installed tires.
Could not be Happier!
MN ManOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/10/2026We are very happy with the new tires. The tread pattern is great and gives up good traction in the vast amounts of snow we have been getting. They give a good feeling of security in driving this winter. They are just a bit noisy, but it could be because they are new.
Love The Tires
GM 1938Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review3/6/2026Just got the crossclimate 2 tires yesterday. Handling and the ride is amazing. The noise is the same as my old worn out tires on asphalt sounds like mudding tires. The balance out is the performance outweighs the sounds. They ar not quiet tires by any means. However ride and handling is far superior. Come on Michelin make the cross climates quiet down without sacrificing performance.
Performance vs noise
Cajunguy82Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/22/2023I got these tires last Dec 2022 for the winter and rain in Olympic Peninsula area… we live in a very steep hill 600ft straight up from the main road, and we had the worst winter in history with some Seattle frozen roads on my work days… it worked perfect! I am glad I never skid or slide on those days. Even had this on a winter storm when we had a family emergency drive to British Columbia and with my dual motor Tesla model 3, we never had a problem. I am glad this was recommended by an agent during my tire rotation in 2021, I looked it up and changed last 2022.

JamesOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review12/8/2023I purchased these tires 1 year ago and was on my SUV during last winter in NL and acted perfectly in snow and slush. I drove a 450 km in high rain and heavy wind last week and these tires worked fabulously in the rain and road ruts. I think they are the best tires I ever owned in my 55 years driving.
Best tire ever
William AOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review11/29/2022I replaced my Michelin Primacys to give these a try. I live in upstate New York where we get harsh winters. So far I am satisfied, I feel more confident on the road, however a little more road noise and slight steering wheel feel which is expected with such an aggressive thread. I believe these tires are second to none when it comes to an all season tire with the snow factor included.
Ride with confidence
