Meh

Installed on a BMW X3. Mediocre as a snow tire at best. Came from Continentals Viking 7s and figure I could get by a single winter since they're labelled as an All Weather Tire. They are not a replacement for proper winter tires. Noticeably less traction off the line, straight line traction, and more importantly, during turns. In fair weather conditions (dry), fuel mileage was comparably worse than the Michelin Pilot AS3+ that it replaced which was surprising since that tire was fantastic in the dry and in the rain. Overall, not impressed.

Downgraded performance of replacement tire is sad.

Sadly, this Cross Climat 2 tire recommended for Honda Accord is a downgrade from the OEM tire and recommendation as this only has a "B" traction rating, but the OEM tire was rated "A". OEM tire is Michelin Primacy MXM4. I don't appreciate having a recommendation that lowers my car's safety rating in not allowing my car to top as fast or hold the road as well as expected when purchased. Did not purchase recommended tire for reason that I care for my family's safety.

You raise an excellent point, and this highlights why regulation needs to be updated and/or eliminated as technology changes and improves. The current method that is based on locked wheel braking and all modern vehicles have anti-lock brakes. A braking test based on anti-lock brakes measuring peak adherence rather than slide adherence is better suited for today’s vehicle. Michelin has chosen to design tires based on anti-lock braking which sometimes actually produces a lower locked wheel result.

Michelin Cross Climate 2 review

TWO THUMBS WAY UP!!! The Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires have exceeded my high expectations! The most notable, unexpected feature is a much smoother, controlled driving experience on my 2020 Acura MDX/AWD. I’m really impressed and pleased with my purchase. On a side note, the tire’s really do enhance the look of the car (WOW!).

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.

Independently rated #2 tire for all seasons

I purchased these tires for my Subaru Forester after researching tire ratings and prices. It isn't possible to buy tires that are the best for all conditions, but these tires are highly rated for their performance in both wet and dry roads. This added to the excellent value offered at a reasonable price sealed the deal for me. I was afraid that the aggressive tread pattern would result in objectionable road noise, but they are reasonably quiet in dry conditions.

harsh, stiff ride

I just purchased these tires for use on my Accord. Online information described them as all season Touring tires with good comfort and good handling. I voiced my concern that they might have a rough ride, but two sales people agreed with the online description and assured me that the ride was smooth. I can't speak to the handling, but the ride is definitely stiff and harsher than I would expect from a Touring tire. In my area, roads have lots of cracks. The tires I replaced were 10 years old and original to the Accord. I feel the cracks and other road imperfections much more than I did with my old tires. The quality of the ride is better suited to an SUV or Crossover than a nice sedan.

Vehicle ride is upgraded.

The handling on my 2016 Civic improved, the ride is quiet, and driving in a downpour was without any drama. Stopping is seamless, road grip is outstanding. The car turns flatter, poor street conditions are smoothed out (quite a feat for Chicago!) and I'm happy with the purchase.

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.

Best all season tires made!

I bought these last month for my 2022 Hyundai Kona. So far these have been the best tires I have ever owned. The ride is amazing. We recently had 3 in of snow here and these tires were excellent never lost grip maintained perfect stability felt confident on the road. Honestly the best all season tires you can buy.

Excellent traction and stopping.

Excellent traction and stopping power better than any others tires and I only buy Michelin tires. At first I wasn’t happy with the design because they are directional tires which means they can only be rotated front to back and back to front. The original tires only lasted less than 32,000 miles. I admit I could go further but I don’t take chances on the last 3/32” of tread left. I highly suggest these tires.

Ydoc, thanks so much for the feedback. The CrossClimate2 does have a limited mileage warranty. We'd suggest returning to the selling retailer to initiate a claim. Have the retailer contact us with any questions.
