The traction, durability, and performance are on par with any good tire - I typically only purchase Michelin or Bridgestone tires. However, I found them to be very load. I spoke to the owner of a local tire shop, my car was in for an inspection, he confirmed this tire is very popular and that other also had the same issue. Even though I did not need tires, I ordered a new set due to the road noise.

I had Michelin Defenders for my Honda Ridgeline '17 (bought in Oct 22) they too were smooth and as I spend most of my time on the highway, they lasted a while. Now got the new Cross Climate 2 and I was impressed !! The tires are amazing, quiet, smooth and the truck handles a lot better. I would highly recommend them.

I was really intrigued by the tread pattern, and at first thought that they could be a bit noisy. My mechanic said I would be surprised at how quite they are. I was replacing 4-year-old Michelins that I loved. And to my surprise these tires are almost silent compared to my previous ones! Well done, and the tire pattern has folks asking me about them frequently.

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.

The tires ride and handle well. Driving conditions are primarily in warm weather so traction is not an issue. One critique is the tires tend to flake, leading mechanics to recommend replacement earlier than expected. Wear on the tires was pretty even and they lasted close to the 60,000 miles expected. Except for the flaking, I'd give the tires a 5 star rating.

Great tire, wet and dry handling and traction are the best I have ever had. Corners without any problems or noise. I was surprised that the noise level was very acceptable, they were quiter than my previous Bridgstones summer tires. Very comfortable ride. Too early to comment on durability.Have not tried them in snow but will this winter. Over all a great buy.I have highly recommended to my friends and family.

I just purchased these tires for use on my Accord. Online information described them as all season Touring tires with good comfort and good handling. I voiced my concern that they might have a rough ride, but two sales people agreed with the online description and assured me that the ride was smooth. I can't speak to the handling, but the ride is definitely stiff and harsher than I would expect from a Touring tire. In my area, roads have lots of cracks. The tires I replaced were 10 years old and original to the Accord. I feel the cracks and other road imperfections much more than I did with my old tires. The quality of the ride is better suited to an SUV or Crossover than a nice sedan.

Amazing grip on the road yet a very comfortable smooth ride and quiet which some people had a different opinion on. Just look at the design of the thread. The design allows water and snow to easily dispense from the tire assuring full contact under those conditions. My wife and I just retired and want to have a as much of a long life live as possible after all that hard work in the trenches.

These Tires are being pushed as Wonderful, and were hyped by the Dealer, and were in Short Supply. Got a set, had them Mounted. Car previously had Michelin Premier LTXs, and had about 75,000km on them, and were down to 4.5/16 in, and Winter was upon us. The Old Tires, while they would spin when in 2wd, did surprisingly well in awd. In fact, I didn't notice any difference between them and the CC2s in AWD, 2WD was better with the CC2s. What I didn't like was that the Fuel Economy went in the Toilet. The Old Tires were giving me, on average 9.6liters/100km, the CC2s average at best 11.8liters/100km, that is about a 20% less fuel Economy. In city driving, that number shoots up to 14liters/100km. After 6 months of these Gas Guzzlers, and a Nail in the Sidewall, I am replacing them with Michelin Defender2s

I’ve only driven about 100 miles so far, but I’m very happy with these tires. The grip feels solid, and the ride is noticeably more comfortable compared to my previous set (Bridgestone WeatherPeak). I also seem to be getting slightly better mileage already. Overall, great first impression — smooth, quiet, and confidence-inspiring on the road.
