Don’t disregard the reviews on poor MPG

I’ve been a Michelin tire fan, but have buyers remorse on this set. I was pointed to these tires as being excellent, they do great in the rain but otherwise I haven’t felt that they provide superior performance and they must have a great deal of rolling resistance because I’m experiencing a reduction of 3 mpg with my Q5. Very disappointing.

Ed in VA, thanks for taking the time to submit a review. We're sorry to read that you are unhappy with the mpg you are getting with the Cross Climate2. New tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires.  As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases.  Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve. As a last resort, remember as part of the Michelin Promise Plan, our tires have a 60 day satisfaction guarantee. Simply return to the selling retailer for the tires to be swapped out.

Did not last

I bought these tires for my Tesla in 2023. I put Snow tires on the vehicle last winter and changed them back to these tires last spring. I have driven on them for two summers for 21K miles. I am having them put my snow tires back on now, and these tires are at 2/32", so they will not put them back on again next spring. I asked about the mileage warranty and was told that Michelin told them it is half the stated value because the tire is on an EV vehicle. That the tire is not made for EV vehicles. This information is not on any documentation that I can find. Their website says, "Michelin is the best in inclement all-weather performance on EVs." I got a third of the mileage that Michelin claims these tires should last. I feel cheated.

Worth the money?

I bought these tires in September, 2020. The tread pattern had me intrigued but unsure. Winter control conventionally comes from a deep tread, soft rubber compound, and lots of sipes. The croosclimate2 does not look like that but it has proven itself so far. The tire resisted hydroplaning during the fall rains and does not show the usual resistance when going through puddles at highway speeds. So far, December, we have had very little snow, 3", but it handled it very well. The freezing rain and ice have been an issue this year and these tires have out-performed my Michelin defenders. I realize that the two are not in the same performance class but I have always had great service from the Defenders, T&H. Crossclimates are an excellent option if you are not going to purchase a dedicated winter tire. We sould be seeing -25°C at Christmas. I don't believe I will be disappointed. ☆ It should also be mentioned that the mountain snowflake symbol, according to my research, signifies a minimum improvement in traction of 10% over all-season tires. This may not sound like alot but it is a minimum of 10%, and the Crossclimate2 are noticeably better than all-seasons. Stay safe.

Perfect All Season Tires, Especially in Rain and Snow!

I've been driving on these tires for 12,000 miles. These tires work extremely well in heavy rain with no hydroplaning at all. Barley can get these tires to break free under heavy acceleration. Tried them out in 6 inches of snow, they worked extremely well for an AS tire. Great acceleration and braking traction. Tracked very straight when at speed. In the dry, they feel like a Performance Summer tire. They are a little noisy in the first 3000 miles, now they sound great. I recommend these tires to all my friends and family. I have been using Bridgestone 980 AS, for 3 sets, and these are far better. Used on a 2019 Hyundai Elantra Sport FWD.

Awesome on the Airstream Atlas

Just had these tires put on my 2022 Airstream Atlas as i was going do some driving in the snow. Just drove from South Carolina to Northern Michigan with the last 4 hours in a blizzard. Cant say enough about how the tires performed....Airstream should make them standard

Great set of tires!

I have purchased these tires for a variety of different sedan and mini van vehicles, and they are perfect all-season tires for those living in the Midwest. We get a fair amount of snow in winter and rain in spring / fall, and these tires perform well in those conditions. The added bonus if they are not loud when driving 60+ mph on the freeway, and they help me maintain a decent MPG rating when driving in the city + freeway. Overall, I am happy that I purchased these in the past and I am planning to continue purchasing them in the future.

Puncture magnet

Bought Cross Climate for Honda CrV 2019 and 5000 miles later had 2 punctures episodes. Both looked and felt the same - knock-knock sound - and screw inside the tire thread. I googled “puncture resistance of Cross Climate tires” and found the same cases. I generally like Michelin products but this one is very disappointing.

Alex, it's unfortunate that you had 2 tires that were damaged by screws. Were the tires repairable? Did you purchase road hazard coverage form the retailer? If you still have the damaged tires, give us a call at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST Mon-Fri to further discuss this issue.

VERY HAPPY with Performance

One year Review- Put a set on both my Lexus LS430 and RX330 in September 21'. Now added approximately 10K miles to each vehicle. Handling tightened up on both vehicles, getting a little better milage and traction is incredible. But the most noticeable change was the noise. I have used most models of Michelin tires over the years and they all start out very smooth and quiet but get noisier within a few thousand miles. These CF2's have stayed really quiet and smooth. and highly recommend. About to add a set to a 4x2 F-150. Would like to see a review from someone who has done so.

Overall, good tires

Overall these are good tires and I am glad I bought them. First, even though they are “all weather” and usuable year round, I swap them out for dedicated winter tires, so I cannot comment on how they preform in severe winter conditions. However, soon after putting them on this spring (March 2024), we had a few cm’s of snow in the Toronto area. They handled this spring snowfall and resulting messy roads effortlessly. In normal commuter driving around the city and during one long distance highway trip I have taken, they have preformed very well in all aspects, steering, braking, accelerating and ride, whether it is sunny or wet, the road is perfect or bumpy. The one draw back is there is some tread growl. I drive a 2017 Mazda 3, which isn’t a whisper quite car, and the tread noise tends to blend in with the normal Mazda sound in a way that does not make it annoying. However if quiet running is a key priority for you, there are probably other tires that will better meet your needs.

BEST TIRE EVER

Purchased the Cross Climate 2 tires for our Volvo XC90 three months ago. I have been purchasing Michelin tires for over 40 years and always replace original tires with Michelins. Immediately noticed an improvement in ride quality in all aspects over the original tires. The reide was quieter, smoother and the vehicle tracked better. We took a 3,000 mile trip shortly after we put on the new tires and exxperienced about a half mile per gallon increase in mileage.. NOw that we have driven the car on both snow and ice I must say that in our opinion the best tires we have ever owned. The traction and stopping during winter driving conditions in the midwest is superb. I have recommended these tires to many friends and relatives.
