Too many negatives

Research, reviews and tests were mixed on the cross climate 2 but I bought them anyway. They are not the worst tires I have ever had but not anything like the Yokahama Parada Spec X I took off either. They are good in rain, haven’t driven in snow yet but they are rated high for snow but my issues with this tire is on dry tar. No changes to vehicle except new tires. The car wants to wonder now. It is difficult to keep it going straight at any speed. The car feels squishy on dry tar now. Doesn’t feel stable anymore. I don’t track my mileage but the car seems to drag now so I suspect the mileage decrease complaints are probably correct. The tires do make noise at times. Mainly on dry tar with the windows open and you are stepping on the gas. You must over inflate these tires to increase the stability. I run 40 psi in front for better steering but it helps only slightly and that may wear them out prematurely. The bottom line is that there are a lot of choices in tires no need to put up with the negatives of these tires.

Great onroad - horrible offroad.

Drove 17,000 miles cross country on these tires. They are good for paved roads, but the moment you hit any sort of gravel drivway, dirt road to campground or sandy path they REALLY suck. My car is not an offroad vehicle but on occasion we would have to take a gravel road or drive to an established campsite on dirt or sand these tires have horrible traction. The whole car shifts side to side when breaking. I have not used these in the snow but I don't plan to as they cannot even handle a little sand in the street.

Amazing performance upgrade

I'm so happy I bought these tires! I didn't need new tires, but I wanted better snow tires as I had several winter trips planned. The improvement on both dry and wet pavement was remarkable. On dry pavement the car seems to perform twice as well, especially around corners. In rain and snow, braking is better and the car feels more in control. Fuel mileage is about the same, if not better.

You can't go wrong with these.

I have used these tires for years. Tire wear is slow, if you maintain proper air pressure. Traction is great in the snow, rain, cornering at speed and when riding on lined pavement (the tire design eliminates vehicle wobbling because of the cross design). I have the tires on our BMW, Mercedes and VW.

Love the CrossClimate - Not sure I like the CrossClimate

Purchased 4 CrossClimate tires two weeks ago to replace Perellis on my 2025 Volvo sedan. Had an opportunity to drive these in all conditions and I must say, what an awesome tire in the snow and wet pavement. However, on dry pavement, expressway driving 70-80 MPH, getting a vibration. Not an obnoxious vibration, but definitely noticeable. Also, the tires make the car feel loose, wanting to move side to side on a dry expressway. Lastly, my fuel economy isn't nearly as good as before. Back to the dealer in a few days to check the balance on these tires.

Michelin Has done it again

Long time Michelin Tire Buyer, I've had the AT & Defenders on many model vehicles. Wife has 2016 Toyota Sienna AWD Limited. OEM came with Run flats which were noisy and hard. I changed to Defenders which is a great tire. With 63,000 miles we just installed Cross Cimate 2 size 235-55/18. Michelin knocked it out of the park with these tires. Feels like I'm driving a luxury 80k SUV now. Smooth, Quiet and tons of control. I can not believe how quiet and smooth they ride. We live in Florida but also spend a lot of time in the Mountains of NC. NO snow yet but Ill report once we do. Im pretty confident they will perform. Thank You Michelin.

Very quite, smooth ride!

I researched for a tire that was good for all four seasons and just not an all season radio radial tire but something that performs great in like even deep snow or hot Arizona sons son. I was looking for a tire that had great traction ratings on dry and wet conditions, all season, snow rated and good for the Arizona heat. This tire was really the only one that had all those parameters along with the high mileage, 60k long lasting. I had them installed today and my first impression is OMG! These tires are so quiet, the ride is so smooth, when you go over a manhole cover kind of thing you can’t even feel it, it just feels like you’re right you’re sitting on a cloud and again it is just so freaking quiet. Tomorrow we’re expecting snow and rain in the mountains of Arizona I am eager to try them on the roads for their lack of hydroplaning and their ratings for wet and snow I wanna see how it works on the back roads of a big snowpacked off road and then also driving on the highway puddles for hydroplaning I am hoping my impression and my excitement still holds up. I don’t see any reason why they will not. I strongly recommend these tires especially for SUVs I own a Subaru 2019 Forrester sport

Smooth ride and improved fuel economy.

I bought a set of these tires just over a week ago for my 2018 Hoda Pilot. I could feel the difference as soon as I started driving. These are the best riding tires ever. The best mileage I have ever had on this vehicle is 26.1 mpg. I have driven over 1500 miles and now showing 27.0 mpg. About 1200 of these miles were on the interstate. I would highly recommend this tire.

Vehicle ride is upgraded.

The handling on my 2016 Civic improved, the ride is quiet, and driving in a downpour was without any drama. Stopping is seamless, road grip is outstanding. The car turns flatter, poor street conditions are smoothed out (quite a feat for Chicago!) and I'm happy with the purchase.
