5 out of 5 stars review

Too cynical to believe all the 5-star reviews until....

...the price was better than my OEM's, which were balding with less than 30k miles and winter was coming! Granted these tires are much more appropriate for my Stinger vs our grandkid hauler; but the Hankook's had been too 'slippery' last winter....4-5 times turned around before even leaving neighborhood, switching to Grandma's Sportage. And last winter (in north central Ohio) was NOTHING like the one we've had so far!! Since replacing tires (w/CC2's) I've driven on roads bone-dry/sopping wet/mild flooding/ light sleet/mushy snow/1-2" fluffy snow/5-6" packed pre-plowed snow and we're getting ready to have rain melting away piles of curbside snow....these tires grip!!, do NOT slip!!! (All) traction situations have definitely been much better than Hankook OEM's when new and pleasantly more quiet, which did (truthfully) surprise me. Of course, 95% of my driving is on asphalt (same as Hankook's) and full disclosure, they are noticeably nosier on cement (crossing bridges/overpasses/etc). Bottom Line: Do I recommend these? You decide...I'll be putting them on my Stinger; told my daughter to get them for her Sorento; eldest grandson for his Focus RS Turbo.

So far so good

I bought these about a month ago after experiencing hydroplaning on the highway on the original tires. As luck would have I experienced a similar rainstorm after having the new tires mounted. They seemed to preform much better. Of course the old tires were worn. The CrossClimate 2s were much quieter than expected given the aggressive tread pattern. The true test will come once snow is on the ground. I'm a skier and looking for better winter traction without the need to swap tires out twice a year.

Major upgrade!

After 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!

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.

Best rain and all season tire out there

I had these on my 2017 Cadillac XT5 and couldn't have been happier . Especially the wet weather traction and handling. I just upgraded to the CrossClimate 2 again, this time on my 2023 BMW X6. Absolutely amazing handling for the Northern NJ weather. Couldn't be happier. Highly recommended.

Wishing that it would snow more often

Was 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

Smooth ride -- esxcellent stopping on wet pavement

I have used Michelin tires on most vehicles for years. I saw reports on these particular tires, and with the tires on my Chevrolet Equinox nearing the end of their lives, I sought and found a set of these. I have driven on them quite a few times not, including on wet pavement and found their stopping to be excellent and their ride smooth.

Love the Mud & Snow rating

I bought these tires 10 months ago for my Toyota Sienna van. They give the ride of conventional all-season radials, yet have an M&S rating so that I am legal in the winter if I go out of town to higher altitudes in the winter. A great balance/compromise if you have similar needs.

Best of All - always

Cross Climate 2 are perfect for me. We get lots of rain where I live and CC2 does an excellent job of divesting the water and holding me steady and tight to the road surface. Since the first day of driving a car too many years ago, I have always had Michelins. So, 10 Gold Stars.**********

Luxury ride

Wanted to replace OEM Bridgestone on 2020 Lexus RX350 after the first week but decided to wait 8 months for CrossClimate2 to become available. It was worth the wait, my Lexus now rides like luxury vehicle it is. Ride is much smoother, noticeably quieter and overall more solid feel when making left/right turns. Handles very well and provides confident feeling on very wet roads, hoping for same in the winter. Great tire!
