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.

I drove about 40k on these in North Carolina on an Acura MDX. Acura found all 4 tires had separated at the bead, requiring all all-new set of tires. What did I replace them with? The same tire--because despite the defect, they're the best tires I've ever run on this car. Wet/snow/ice/dry traction is unbeatable. They have a premium look to them, too. Michelin stood by their product and made it clear that they accepted responsibility for the defect--which I think was just a fluke. I'm beyond pleased with these tires

Michelin has always been my go to tires, but I am getting a bit frustrated with its thread life. Put on Premier LTX before the Cross Climate 2. While the Premier LTX lasted only lasted 36,718 miles instead of the promised 60,000 miles in nearly three years of use, the Cross Climate 2 only saw 30,000 miles before the dealer refused to service them. After switching to the more expensive Cross Climate 2 with deeper threads, I thought I would get longer life but alas, here we are after only 30,000 miles of use and threads are already below 2/32" according to the dealer. While the tires are good otherwise, thread life of 30000 for tires with a promise of 60000 miles is simply not acceptable. Basically crapping out at half the warranty distance in less than 20 months (1 year - 8 months) of us. Micheline essentially replaced their discontinued Premier line with a less durable product and reduced the warranty distance so they do not have to cover warranty

I’m using Michelin CrossClimate 2 in size 235/65 R17 on an Audi Q5 quattro (SUV). Overall, the tire performs very well in dry conditions and also handles regular rain without any issues. For everyday driving on wet or dry asphalt, the stability and comfort are good. However, the tire shows serious limitations as soon as there is wet snow or slush on the road, especially around +2°C. Braking performance becomes very weak, and the car tends to slide forward even at low speeds, around 15–30 km/h. In these conditions, the tire simply cannot provide sufficient grip, and stopping distances become dangerously long. Because of this, I was forced to purchase a new set of proper winter tires, as continuing to drive with the CrossClimate 2 in these conditions poses a real risk of an accident and serious danger. A similar issue appears when the road is only slightly damp after light rain during colder autumn/winter days — braking and stopping distances noticeably increase, even when driving slowly. Conclusion: Excellent tire for dry, wet, and mild winter conditions, but not reliable in slush, wet snow, or low temperatures. If you live in an area where wet snow is common, this tire may not be a safe choice during winter.

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.

Newly installed set of four CrossClimate2 on my Honda Accord. Replaced a set of Michelin Primacy tires. So far, I am happy with the purchase. When reading reviews, these tires were acclaimed for wet/dry/winter traction but there were some comments about higher tire noise. For my own experience, I cannot discern much worse tire noise than my former quiet/smooth Primacy tires. I'm still in the break-in period, but I can tell with the tread pattern and deeper channels I'll get much improved traction in wet and snowy/winter conditions. I was happy with the Primacy tires for most of the season, but their weak point was cold/winter driving. Looking forward to more confidence on the road as approach the colder weather in the midwest with a new set of these CrossClimate tires on the car.

I recently switched to the Michelin CrossClimate 2, and I’m very impressed with the performance. These tires handle exceptionally well in both dry and wet conditions, and they’re surprisingly quiet and smooth on the highway. I’ve also driven through light snow, and the grip and stability were excellent — perfect for Canadian weather that changes quickly. The tread design gives great confidence on corners and braking, and I noticed better fuel efficiency compared to my previous set. It’s a perfect all-season tire for anyone who wants year-round safety without constantly swapping between winter and summer tires. Definitely worth the investment!

Waiting on Winter. They look good feel good and the promise of mileage to come is appealing. Living in Canada the true test will come with Winter. Previously lived a couple of hours north of Toronto and changed to full winter every year, now in Oakville and banking on CC2s to deliver a solid safe rain, slush and snow performance.

I drive 65k miles a year. The current set of CrossClimate 2 have 80k miles on them. I rotate these tires with each oil change every 5k miles. This set still has 6/32’s tread left on all 4 tires. The all weather traction is amazing. Great traction in the rain reducing hydroplaning and great stopping. I drive a front wheel drive Camry and I was able to safely travel with 6+ inches of snow this year on several occasions. I would not buy another tire knowing the abilities of these tires. I still drive with care during inclement weather but I feel safer knowing I have these tires gripping the highway. All tires are not created equal. These tires were designed for travelers and I’m grateful for them. This is my second Camry with CrossClimates and both sets lasted over 80k before turning in the car. I hate turning in an old car each time for a new car not knowing the abilities of the tires on the new car. These need to be standard equipment on Toyota Camry’s.

What are difference tires make! I bought these for my Scion XD, and I notice a difference is most aspects of my driving. I also bought wheels that were slightly wider. The grip is so different. My car is more steady, and doesn't shift at the slightest twist of the steering wheel. I have better traction in cornering, even at low speeds. The ride is smooth and quiet! In the rain, I've had no issues and dont feel.like i have to try to avoid standing water in ruts. I have better traction taking off. These tires make a difference across all aspects of driving and so far in different conditions too! I have more confidence in my car and handling ability! I didn't know new tires would be this impactful!
