- 5 out of 5 stars review11/7/2022Bought this a year ago. I have always been using all-weather tires in all my vehicles. I tried other brands and this is the best choice. The ride is very smooth, stable and quiet. I don't feel any slips even on block icy roads. Acceleration and braking is superb. I feel very confident on the road with these tires. Dry, wet and icy traction is performing very well so far. I feel i made the right choice.
best all weather tire I have used so far
Mar LonOriginally 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 review8/28/2024Finally, one tire that does it all. North Central Connecticut, two winters now haven’t had to worry about them. Haven’t had to buy two sets of tires. Slightly more noise, but nothing bothersome. These are on a 2015 Accord LX. These are basically set it and forget it tires. Wet, dry, snow, predictable everywhere.
Only tire you need
JPCTOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review8/11/2024Love these tires. Living ion the west coast of Canada the snowflake means they can stay on all year. Running now on both vehicles because I was tired of swapping out tires. But… on the Tesla I would like an option for the noise foam inclusion or a tech to tell me why it is not just default on all tires??
Winter performance that rivals dedicated winter tires yet has summer performance.
rchwallaceOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review2/6/2025I was skeptical about these All-weather tires until I put them on my daily. I have used sets of UHP tires on my other cars and I am impressed by the performance in both dry and wet for tires that you could also use in winter conditions. Speaking of winter performance, you cannot expect it to be as good as a set of dedicated winter tires from Michelin or other decent brands, but as long as you know how to drive properly in winter, these tires will serve you well and you don't have to buy another set of wheels and tires anymore. I did not test it on the same car but personally I think it even outperform some cheap or old winter tires that I have tried. If you are on the fence, just give it a try and you are not going to regret it.
I am impressed
TimOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 3 out of 5 stars review10/6/2022Excellent tires but with two caveats: expect 10% hit on the gas mileage and significant variation in road noise increase depending on the road surface types. I have a hybrid and mileage dropped from 40 average to 36 (verified in 5 full tank cycles). The road noise at or above 60m/h varied on road surfaces in highways, ranging from 60 to 76 dB (while my old Mxv4s had max around 64, with little or no dependency on highway surface types).
Great tires but with two caveats
MNIOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/12/2024I bought four CrossClimate2 replacement tires this year for my daughter’s 2015 Beetle. She’s a daily driver on the busy 401 Toronto highway to and from work. Their all weather capabilities and reliability were already proven over the past couple of years on my 2013 Volvo XC90. This vehicle is now on its third set of Michelin tires.
All weather capabilities and reliability!
Nora72Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review11/26/2022Had tires 1 year and am very pleased with all weather capabilities. I travel between Vancouver BC and Calgary on a regular basis so from sea level to the Rockies and the weather is highly unpredictable, the cross climate 2 are always ready to tackle an weather in a predictable and reliable fashion . I have recommended these tires to family and friends!
Mountain roads
PahnOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/19/2023First 2,000 miles my fuel mileage dipped from 41mpg to 38mpg (hybrid) but once they wore in they have been the most sure footed and quiet tires I’ve ever driven. I commute 120miles per day and currently have 43,000 miles on them. Still silent and trouble free. Wet/rain and snow braking and handling and overall performance makes this tire by far the best car tire on the market.
Incredible design
Long distance commuterOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review3/28/2023Bought these last summer in preparation for this winter. It gave me a few months to also see how these performed as everyday tires. Overall, I am very pleased with these tires. On dry and wet pavement I have received good handling and traction. This morning, where I am (Fort Collins, CO), the city was surprised with a bit of a dump. The forecast was for a trace of snow, but I woke up to 5 inches. The city was caught off guard and had not prepared the streets by pre-applying mag chloride. So the morning commute was through 5 inch snow on the residential streets and tracks and a layer of ice on the main arterials. I had no problem negotiating any of it with these tires with the exception of starting from a standing stop where I got a little b...
Great Tire
liedtkeOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 3 out of 5 stars review5/4/2022I've about 3000 miles on these tires on our Lexus ES 350 and have been disappointed with the ride and quietness. The tires feel hard on bumpy roads and make a moderate amount of noise on all roads. The traction seems good in all conditions. My son-in-law got the same tires on their Honda Odyssey and states his ride is soft and they are quiet compared to the snow tires he had on it.
Disappointed
ptbobOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/22/2022Decided on these for my 2015 Ford Edge Titanium Awd, 245 55 19, and I'm very happy that I did. I was concerned about the tread pattern being noisy but they're quiet. I also read reviews where gas milage dropped, but I'm getting 2mpg more with them. I noticed stopping distance has increased as well as acceleration. I usually buy a mid grade tire but glad I spent a little extra for these. Hope I'm just as impressed with their traction in snow this winter.
CrossClimate 2 - Excellent tires
HighlandBullOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 2 out of 5 stars review1/6/2022I have been a loyal Michelin customer for forty years and this is the first time I have ever been disappointed. I bought these for my wife's Subaru Crosstrek when the original set needed replacement and I have never heard the end of it. They're okay around town but when you get up to highway speeds you can't hear yourself think. Since Michelins last a long time, I'll probably have to suffer with these for 5-6 years!
Noisiest Tires I've Ever Owned
My FaultOriginally posted onmichelinman.comConsumer CareMy Fault, we're sorry you are experiencing noise with the CrossClimate2 tires. A member of our Consumer Care Team will be in ... - 5 out of 5 stars review12/23/2022Just replaced long lasting Michelin X-ice with CrossClimate2 and these are fantastic tires. Handled 6" of snow with ease and no sideways sliding see with other tire designs. Braking performance is exceptional in snow and wet. See other reviewers whining about MPG decrease but it's minimalin my experience for what tire has to offer. Tire is extremely quiet considering aggressive tread pattern which is impressive. Another great tire from Michelin and highly recommend if live in snowy climate.
Great traction!
DnixOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review8/1/2021After much research, I replaced a set of Yokohama Geolander tires with a set of CrossClimate2 on my wife’s 2015 Lexus NX. WOW, what a difference in ride and road noise. It was like getting a new vehicle. The Yokohama tires were original equipment on our NX, and I always complained about the road noise and harsh ride. I thought it was the car and now I know it was the tires! I’m curious how they will perform this winter on snowy roads on our 2wd SUV. So far, great tires!
Major upgrade!
NX DrIverOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review5/11/2021I am happy that I bought these tires...after a lot of research... and discussions with tire dealers who always confirmed they were rated best for snow and ice, and rain and clear roads too. I’m not driving much these days but when I do my 2012 Ford Flex handles better and more quietly than it ever did. I forget I was concerned about my tires. I’ve been a Michelin customer for 60 + years and they never let me down. As a bonus, they qualify on insurance as Winter tires.
Feeling safe
HappyOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review4/9/2024I replaced the OEM all seasons on my new 2024 Taos with a set of CrossClimate 2s. I CC2s on my previous Tiguan and they performed well summer and winter. I ran them for a year and a half until I traded the vehicle. Living in an apartment, the all weather tires make sense -- no storage issues and no seasonal swaps.
Good All Round Performer
johannOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review9/11/2024I bought these tires about five months ago. They have great traction in the dry and the wet no testing for snow yet it hasn’t fallen. As expected small size pieces of gravel will get stuck in the grooves between the rows of tread… easy enough to pop out with a small screwdriver. My Toyota Sienna rides smooth with perhaps a little more noise than a regular summer tire… don’t forget, this is basically an all season tire, so you give up a little to get a lot.
Smooth Ride, Great Traction
Billy BufferOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 4 out of 5 stars review1/2/2022I travelled yesterday in one of my most adventurous drives along the snowstorm direction from Chicago to Detroit. I94 was a combination of slosh pit and fresh accumulated snow at various stretches. Michigan roads were bad to start with. But this tire (and some driving skills, well tire mainly) kept me going at 65 to 70 MPH in that snow and gave me a lot of confidence to drive over. As some users have noted can't speak of its performance well into its life but these were installed 2 months ago and had very less mileage on them as of writing this review. If you hit a heap of snow as in when changing lanes though - because of the way the tire is grooved to let a lot of rain and snow flow outwards you will see a significant slowdown than ot...
That bite on snow is brilliant !!
Detroit_IronOriginally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review1/22/2022I bought these tires back in November 2021 since I decided to work for DoorDash. Since people don’t like to go out in the rain and snow, I knew those days would be pretty busy. And let me tell you… BEST TIRES I HAVE EVER PURCHASED! If it wasn’t for my car being so low to the ground, I could go anywhere I want! No slipping in the rain and great traction in the snow. That’s not something you hear too often about a front wheel drive economy car! I’ll definitely buy these again!
Best purchase ever!
