Too many negatives

Research, reviews and tests were mixed on the cross climate 2 but I bought them anyway. They are not the worst tires I have ever had but not anything like the Yokahama Parada Spec X I took off either. They are good in rain, haven’t driven in snow yet but they are rated high for snow but my issues with this tire is on dry tar. No changes to vehicle except new tires. The car wants to wonder now. It is difficult to keep it going straight at any speed. The car feels squishy on dry tar now. Doesn’t feel stable anymore. I don’t track my mileage but the car seems to drag now so I suspect the mileage decrease complaints are probably correct. The tires do make noise at times. Mainly on dry tar with the windows open and you are stepping on the gas. You must over inflate these tires to increase the stability. I run 40 psi in front for better steering but it helps only slightly and that may wear them out prematurely. The bottom line is that there are a lot of choices in tires no need to put up with the negatives of these tires.

Excellent Tire for all seasons

Bought a set in November 2019 for my 2015 x-trail. Replaced the standard dimensions with 215/60//16XL. Use the vehicle for 90% city and 10% hgwy. Excellent on dry and wet pavement. No Hydroplaning. Handles 10ins of snow in 4-wheel drive. Great on icy road at temps as low as -15C . Very quiet and comfortable tires. Will buy for my Terrain.

TANK of a tire

These tires were on my Ford Fusion Energi which is a heavy plug in hybrid. These tires lasted about 77,000 miles of mixed highway and city use. I have an alignment issue so would recommend getting your car aligned at the same time and rotate frequently every 5k-8k miles. Today they sold themselves again. Took a nail and the tire still kept pressure. See the pictures! What a tank of a tire.

Defender over cross climate

We have a New Pathfinder and New Qx60. We put the cross climates on the qx60 and the defender on the Pathfinder. We put them on them one day apart so both tires are New. The ride comfort and mpg with the defender is much better. The cross climate is much harder noiser and eats fuel. Unless you are I'm major snow alot the defender is a better every day tire. The cross climate is mire of a sport tire with great winter performance. We are going to switch them out for the defender this week.

We want to live long and prosper!

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.

Cannot get rid of vibration at 70+ MPH.

I bought these set of tires after having the original CrossClimate tires on my e-Golf. I had them installed by a certified Michelin dealer, balanced, and did an alignment. Unfortunately, these tires have a slight vibration at 70+ MPH. I took the car back to the original place where I had them installed and they confirmed that the balancing was correct. I then took it to a second independent tire store to have them double check the balancing with Road Force equipment and they also said it was correct. I ended up using the Michelin 60-day Satisfaction Guarantee to get them replaced with a set of Michelin Sport Pilot A/S.

Great traction and better control.

I’ve had my tires now for a couple of weeks and you definitely can feel the difference with the control of your car. The tires definitely handle the streets better and in a turn the car seems to have better handling. I also love the look of the tire. Since their treads are designed a little differently it gives a tire a different look which looks nice on my 2018 Honda accord hybrid. I hope you find it helpful.

Wow, love these tires!!!

Have these on a 2019 Cadillac XT5 and love them! Only drove in light snow so far and they worked great. Amazing traction and breaking. In the rain, my SUV is like a tank. Goes through large puddles and standing water without any pull to one side or another. GReat ride on the highway. Quiet tires. Highly recommend.

Best purchase ever!

I 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!
