Great tire in snow!

Bought these tire about 4 months ago. Yesterday, I traveled to Mankato, MN and encountered a spring snow storm with fairly heavy snow fall. We saw 10 cars in the ditch! In one case, we were directly behind a sedan that spun out in a curve ahead of us. We were the same speed as that car and did not feel any loss of traction! Our speed was approximately 45. I did take my foot off the gas as we watched him slide sideways, coming to a stop in a driveway. At no time did I feel any twitchy or loss of adhesion to the road surface! I highly recommend these tires in snow country! These tires are slightly rougher riding and noisier than my previous all season tires but do not change my rating at all, these tires may save your life!

Quiet tire, good in rain

Bought these as a summer tire 2 years ago because of the ability to deal with heavy water on the road. But they are also quiet and handle well enough for what they are on , 2018 Tiguan. The wear is reasonable so far. .The all-season designation allows travel in fringe periods until I install the snows. However... If these are installed backwards they would become dangerous in rain or snow, forcing everything to the centre of the tire. I can understand those who say they are unstable , maybe noisy, ...perhaps running backwards.

Excellent on snow

I live in Wisconsin and got tired of switching to winter tires In file and back in spring. I was looking for a tire that could be run year round, but had good performance on snow. The CrossClimate II definitely has been the answer. It delivers excellent performance on all road conditions, including ice and snow. Excellent traction and stopping performance on bad winter roads. I would highly recommend it!

The perfect tire for the majority of northern drivers.

It's hard to imagine a better 'daily driver' tire for anyone living in an area that gets snow. Why keep two sets of tires when you can have one set that performs beautifully in all conditions? I bought these in winter and was astounded by how well they gripped in 6 inch snow, slush, and over broken ice. I went out of my way to find backroads that had not been plowed and the car gripped like a snow leopard. Grip and confidence in the rain is just as good. Having these All Weather tires installed and not having to worry about being caught out in a snow storm before you've swapped to your winter tires is a very nice feeling. The only drawback I see to these CrossClimates is that they are not a substitute for high performance summer tires. You lose some 'feel' and outright performance in the dry. Only an issue for sports cars and probably not applicable for anyone considering these tires anyway, just worth mentioning. Oh, and they look really cool on the car. That's always important. Enjoy!

Road Noise

I bought 4 of these tires on April 19, 2023. The road noise from these tires were not the Michelin quality that I have known for 44 years. I went back to the retailer that I bought them from and had 4 Michelin Defenders replace these CrossClimate2 tires. I am very happy with the Defenders.

Cross Climate II Awesome!

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.

AMAZING!!!

I've had these tires on my 2011 Honda Pilot for the last 3 winters, these tires are exceptional in everyway. I'm 55 and have driven over 1.5 million kilometers so far. I live in Ontario and have family in New Brunswick, we drive to NB a minimum of 3 times a year. Christmas, March Break and summer. We have experienced every weather condition imaginable on these journeys. The Michelin Cross climate 2's handle anything that it has thrown at it. They have exceptional traction in all weather conditions. I have put approximately 70,000 Km on them and they handle just as incredibly as the first day they were put on the vehicle. The wear is even and consistent on all 4 corners of the Honda. I recommend these tires to anyone I meet. There is also the added bonus of never having to change or store winter tires again. These are the best tires I have ever driven on, I always feel safe and confident when travelling anywhere with these on my vehicle.

TANK of a tire

These tires were on my Ford Fusion Energi which is a heavy plug in hybrid. These tires lasted about 77,000 miles of mixed highway and city use. I have an alignment issue so would recommend getting your car aligned at the same time and rotate frequently every 5k-8k miles. Today they sold themselves again. Took a nail and the tire still kept pressure. See the pictures! What a tank of a tire.

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).

Gas Mileage Suffers

Did not know about the hit my 2021 Camry XLE' gas mileage was about to take when I bought. Buying a hybrid car was an attempt to get great mileage, and now the average is about 3 MPG lower. No other complaints about these tires, but I would not have bought them (Nov 2023) if I had known the mileage would degrade.
