- 1 out of 5 stars review11/24/2020I 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).
Poor economy, Poor feel.
JJAOriginally posted onmichelinman.comConsumer CareWe appreciate the tire review you have provided regarding CrossClimate2 tires on your vehicle. A member of our Consumer Care... - 4 out of 5 stars review11/10/2021Although I've only had these for a short time and have traveled a relatively short distance by many standards they seem to be at least as good as any other tires I've owned and are far superior to most. They've proven to be especially good at handling conditions that have caused hydroplaning for me with other tires -- torrential blinding rainstorms on stretches of interstate with bad drainage for example.
Have Served Well So Far
BodgerOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/17/2025A great all year around tire, which totally worth its price! Great performance and durability in any condition such as slushy snow, rain and dry roads. If you are an average driver and don't push your car to limits, this is the best tire that you can buy that saves you time and money by eliminating seasonal tyre switchovers
Best value for the money with all year performance!
JonOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review8/10/2023Bought these 23 months ago. Used on a 2010 Rav4 V-6. also upgraded to an 18-8 inch rim to run a larger stock size and they run awesome! Mostly dry weather, but rain in AZ can be heavy and they do well. Also great traction for all season if in some snow. Seem to be wearing very well, but I keep up on checking pressures and rotations.
CrossClimate 2 tires
MnMBanditOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/11/2021Very good thus far. Always preferred straight-grooved tires due to past experience with cupping and excessive noise on V shaped thread patterns. Only thing audible is a very gentle hum at very slow speeds. Most people will never notice and it is only perceptible because electric car. Really outstanding wet and wet snow traction.
Very Good
Farmer_BCOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/30/2023Just got these this week for my 2019 Lexus ES and WOW, what a difference. These tire track like I'm on rails. Steering feedback is greatly improved and the drive is much improved. With the full depth tread, I'm expecting no change in ride quality as they wear. Very glad I chose these.
CrossClimate 2 was a fantastic choice
ZZR1200Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 2 out of 5 stars review1/7/2022Bought a few weeks ago based on recommendations for winter weather handling. Last 4 inch snow, temperatures around 0F where roads tend to not be as slick - sliding on a low speed curve. Kicked sideways by 6-8 inch drifts elsewhere. I’d rate winter traction as poor.
Poor snow handling
Disappointed in wisconsinOriginally posted onmichelinman.comConsumer CareDisappointed in wisconsin, we really hate to hear that you are not satisfied with the purchase of our CrossClimate 2 tires. R... - 5 out of 5 stars review12/28/2021Purchased tires in November, I've driven during heavy rain fall and the tire traction is excellent compared to previous Michelin tires I've owned. Excellent handling/traction on dry roads as well. Love the tire design and the look of the tires. Most of all, I feel safe with the handling and traction of the CrossClimate2 tires.
Excellent Traction on Wet Roads
LPIOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 1 out of 5 stars review6/10/2025These 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 ...
Horrible Tire, unless you like a big loss of Fuel Economy
I HATE these TiresOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/1/2025I 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.
Great set of tires!
wheredoIneedtodriveOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/15/2022We have had one full cold winter and one full hot summer on these tires. Winter performance better than most winter tires. Summer performance better than most summer tires. Great grip on ice and snow, even in Canadian winter; low rolling resistance in summer, excellent on wet roads, quiet and responsive. Minimal wear after 15,000 km. We are no longer switching tires rwice a year. This is a dream of an all-season tire!
By far the best all-season tire EVER!
Seasoned Driver CanadaOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review12/11/2021Just 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
Awesome on the Airstream Atlas
UP BillOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/11/2021Installed on a Sonata 2012 - couldn't be happier - no longer have to find room for storage for 4 additional tires on rims (now living in a condo), highly recommend the quiet ride, handling on corners, good stopping distance in rain and excellent in the snow. What more could I ask for?

GopherOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review8/4/2023An awesome set of tires! Surprisingly quiet and very good traction... had a super confident drive during heavy rains the day after I got them installed. Very happy with the purchase! Acceleration seems to be cut a tightly bit compared to the original tires.
Great Tires with excellent traction and quiet ride.
Dr QOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/4/2021Wowzer, in just 3 months, I have 7,000+ miles on my new CrossClimate 2's! They were driven in some heavy rain and they are incredibly sticky, as I experimented with some sharp turns in the rain. They are also so very quiet at all speeds. Plus, they attract a lot of attention when people notice the very unique tread pattern.

JohnOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review8/4/2025I have these tires on my Audi A4, have about 35k miles on them. Living in Colorado in the mountains I have been very impressed. These tires stick like glue. Best part is you can use them year round, no changing to snow tires. Only complaint I have is I did lose a couple of mpg with them. Even so the security of them makes up for it. I just purchased a set for my 2023 Kia K5.
Excvellent Traction
Bob59Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review9/22/2022Was on the fence about purchasing primary winter tires, but the CrossClimate2s solved the concern about the seasonal changing from snow to "regular". Oddly, since I bought them, we winters have been far less severe. On the occasions when there was a snowfall, there was not too much accumulation, so have not had the chance to see how they would fare in deep snow. But they are far superior to all-seasons in terms of traction in slush and partially-frozen pavement. Definite recommendation
Wishing that it would snow more often
Can't Wait For Winter 22Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 3 out of 5 stars review3/30/2022Bought 4 of them in feb.2022. Find them a bit noisy and even though wasn't much snow but noticed going thru snow twice the suv steers to the right a bit ... concerned for the next winter, always have purchased my second tires @ Michelin HOPE THEY STAND UP FOR THEIR QUALITY.

RDOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/23/2021I bought these tires from Tire Discounters because they give you a free alignment when you buy a set from them. Crossclimate2 truly do grip the road in wet or dry road. The stopping power is incredible. I hope thee do not get discontinued for years to come. They look aggressive which is why I purchased them and they do deliver in performance.
Tires that truly deliver in performance
ValentinoOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review11/21/2022Overall, I have been happy with mire tire purchase. One of my priorities was improved traction with winter in Wisconsin about to start and the tires deliver. The only complaint is that my milage seems to have dropped which I suppose is not unexpected.
