For the ones you love most.

I had my parents put these CrossClimate2's on my mother's Ford Escape and I'm convinced they're the absolute best choice for the one's you love. I know if she's encountering poor conditions on the road, that she's got the best ability to stop and get going compared to anyone else. I've driven it multiple times myself and ridden passenger multiple times also. These tires are extremely quiet and the ride is much improved. My father liked the CrossClimate2's so much he's switched from his previous Defenders on his Van to the CrossClimate2s. If you encounter poor weather fairly often, these *are the tires for you*. I'm rocking my own PilotSports and we're just one happy Michelin family now. I don't often go out of my way for brands like this but I feel we actively stake our lives on these tires every time we choose to drive and I only settle for the best, Michelin.

Love the tires on my 2020 Honda Pilot

Excellent grip (accelerating and braking) and ride in all conditions. First road trip MN->SD this past summer was a pleasure on both dry and wet roads. Recently had a 20” snowfall this winter and again was very pleased with all aspects of the tires.

Poor economy, Poor feel.

I really dislike these tires. After putting about 2000 miles on them, I've lost about 10% fuel economy (from MXM4). They also transmit a noticeable vibration through the steering wheel, most prevalent on smooth pavement. Finally, I don't feel confident in their lateral grip when pushed a little. The only positive I can come up with is I am surprised at the low noise level considering the lousy road feel. Hopefully they'll redeem themselves in snowy conditions. I definitely would have gone with the MXM4 again (4 stars, winter grip a little wanting) but they were not available when I needed tires (nor are they available now to take advantage of the satisfaction guarantee).

Outstanding!

Wasn't sure about the tread design but I listened to the tire dealers advise. He was right, they are quiet, great traction, outstanding warranty and really cool looking. I would buy these tires again and I'm very particular when it comes to my vehicles.

Great traction and better control.

I've had my tires now for a couple of weeks and you definitely can feel the difference with the control of your car. The tires definitely handle the streets better and in a turn the car seems to have better handling. I also love the look of the tire. Since their treads are designed a little differently it gives a tire a different look which looks nice on my 2018 Honda accord hybrid. I hope you find it helpful.

Not Impressed

I bought these tires Mar 30 2021 .My first set of directional tires and not impressed.I immediately noticed a vibration.Decided to give them a week ,since there were new.They rebalanced and drove them another week before going back to bell tire. These tires on average 3- 5oz of weights which is a lot. The longest measurement of weight was 5 inches.So this is my 3 rd trip back and this time they a ( road force test) ,something I haven't heard of.This machine manipulates the sidewall of the tire, then rebalance.They end up with about the same amount of weights.So I leave and they did this procedure one more . Was told they are, whats considered acceptable limits with minimum vibration.So they are ok for now, I quess. My old worn out pilots were nice to the end .At the first rebalance they told me its probably my rims are bent. They had gotton the tires all mixed up and tried to put the tires on the wrong side of car.I had marked the arrows with white paint so this wouldn't happen.Have to rethink staying with Michelin next time.

Great Tires with excellent traction and quiet ride.

An awesome set of tires! Surprisingly quiet and very good traction... had a super confident drive during heavy rains the day after I got them installed. Very happy with the purchase! Acceleration seems to be cut a tightly bit compared to the original tires.

Magical Tires

I got a set last year. I had Bridgestone Mud&Snows on my Outback Touring. Absolute garbage in snow. An AWD that continuously got stuck. Terrible hydroplaning in heavy rain. I researched and found raves about the Cross Climate. Then I had to search like crazy. Everyone was "sold out." Finally found a set, had them delivered and a local shop installed them. The result? Amazingly good handling. No hydroplaning even going through standing water. As far as getting stuck in moderate snow? These tires turned my Subaru into a snowmobile! Going forward all our AWD vehicles will be wearing these at replacement time. Thanks for such an exceptional tire. Jake

Great Tire

Bought these last summer in preparation for this winter. It gave me a few months to also see how these performed as everyday tires. Overall, I am very pleased with these tires. On dry and wet pavement I have received good handling and traction. This morning, where I am (Fort Collins, CO), the city was surprised with a bit of a dump. The forecast was for a trace of snow, but I woke up to 5 inches. The city was caught off guard and had not prepared the streets by pre-applying mag chloride. So the morning commute was through 5 inch snow on the residential streets and tracks and a layer of ice on the main arterials. I had no problem negotiating any of it with these tires with the exception of starting from a standing stop where I got a little bit of spin where it was ice. But then, the 4WD and AWD vehicles had the same thing. Shout out to these drivers, the ones I saw realize that 4WD helps you go, but doesn't help you stop. Everyone was driving for the conditions and I saw no accidents on my 6 mile commute. About the only 'con' I have seen is a reduction of gas mileage. In the city, I've had about a 10% reduction in mileage. On the highway, not so much. But I bought these as an everyday all season tire that will get me through those few storms that Colorado receives. I've been very happy with them and unless Michelin or someone else comes out with a better tire, I will purchase another set when these wear out.

Good grip. Poor mileage

Vehicle - 2022 Lexus RX 350L. I replaced the Bridgestone ecopia OEM tires at 35k miles due to wear (they are 55k tires) with Michelin Crossclimate 2 tires after considerable research. I have had Michelin tires on a number of vehicles over the years, and apart from a set of Primacy tires, I have always been pleased. While the Crossclimate 2 tires had great traction, especially when wet, there were two serious problems with them. Immediately noticeable was that they did not track well, and needed constant correction on the highway, and it almost seemed that the power steering was increased. But the major problem was with gas mileage. Probably a 15-20% drop in mileage which meant range dropping from about 440 to 385 per tank-full I'm changing to another brand this week. Disappointing after doing what I thought was some extensive research. Reading other reviews and postings on forums, this seems to be a common problem.
