Not Impressed

I bought these tires Mar 30 2021 .My first set of directional tires and not impressed.I immediately noticed a vibration.Decided to give them a week ,since there were new.They rebalanced and drove them another week before going back to bell tire. These tires on average 3- 5oz of weights which is a lot. The longest measurement of weight was 5 inches.So this is my 3 rd trip back and this time they a ( road force test) ,something I haven't heard of.This machine manipulates the sidewall of the tire, then rebalance.They end up with about the same amount of weights.So I leave and they did this procedure one more . Was told they are, whats considered acceptable limits with minimum vibration.So they are ok for now, I quess. My old worn out pilots were nice to the end .At the first rebalance they told me its probably my rims are bent. They had gotton the tires all mixed up and tried to put the tires on the wrong side of car.I had marked the arrows with white paint so this wouldn't happen.Have to rethink staying with Michelin next time.

Good All Round Performer

I 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.

Has been fantastic during the Winter

I bought these a month ago and they have been great in the snow and on dry pavement. The grip it has during turns is fantastic. I personally like the look it gives my vehicle. Took long road trips over the Holidays and our family felt safe the entire time. Haven't had them for summer yet so we will see. As of now we love the CrossClimate 2 Michelin Tires.

Tesla new tirrd

I just have to say these are the best tires I have ever purchased. It truly improved the ride in my Tesla, soooo smooth and I luv the tread pattern.. I have highly recommended this tire to my fellow Tesla drivers and hope I have made a sale or two your way.

One Great Tire!

Bought 3 months ago. Since then we have had snowfalls of up to 30 cm (12”) of snow and icy, compact snow roads as well as dry pavement. So fat these are about the best tires I have had on a regular vehicle. No spinning when starting out, quiet on dry pavement with good handling. One excellent thing I have noticed on ice and compact snow is little to no sideways sliding. Have not experienced heavy rainfall yet, but with traction in snow and on ice I do not expect any problems. These would be the perfect tire for the Lower Mainland of BC which gets heavy rain and occasional wet snow.

Smoothest ride Ive ever had in an SUV

Bought these about six weeks ago. At the time I asked the salesman for the smoothest riding tire on the road and he suggested the Michelin CrossClimate 2. I couldn’t believe the difference they have made on my SUV. It rides more like a car than a truck. I am thrilled with these new tires

One of the best tires I've had on multiple vehicles!

An excellent all-season or winter changeup tire for almost any application where rain, ice, and moderate snow are factors (a legitimate 'snowflake', 3PMSF) while maintaining confidence at high speeds, and enhancing certain performance characteristics such as cornering and braking. I just ordered the CrossClimate2 to replace a pair of CrossClimate+ on my [FWD] Mazda, not needing to consider another tire, as I recently chose a set of CrossClimate2 on my [AWD] Lexus IS for the new winter set and I could not be happier with them. You do need to be attentive and work them in properly during the break-in period, as they can be a little loose during that break-in. If you do break them in properly you will have a better chance of being a satisfied Customer, this is true with just about ANY tire. I suspect some of the complaints around these either do not understand that break-in approach and/or received poor advice - or no advice at all, from their Installers. As far as gas mileage and road noise comments go I would disregard those as the performance and safety of these tires far exceed any inconvenience in those areas, I've had dozens of different tires on similar vehicles and these are neither loud nor inefficient gas-wise, long-term. I gained back my MPG and then some with these compared to multiple other brands. My only complaint of sorts would be the tire/tread life, where I have just over 20k on a pair of CrossClimate+ after approximately 2 years. That is very low mileage-wise, however,, they have been great through everything nature has thrown at them and even though they have 3-4/32nd left out of the 9/32nds when new, I'm replacing them early for safety concerns instead of trying to squeeze another season or three out of them, which I probably could, but better safe than sorry. My family drives these cars daily and I'm more comfortable with them having more tread. I am expecting more life out of the CrossClimate2 with 10/32nds new... I will likely post a separate performance-centric review for the CrossClimate2 experience on the Lexus, as I only have a few hundred miles on that vehicle, but so far the results exceed expectations, providing a very stable and consistent ride, better than any of the other tires I've ever had on that Lexus. If anything the tires amplify the driving experience on my vehicles and sometimes that means revealing suspension issues and other inconsistencies in their feedback, the type of precise feedback that less dynamic and responsive tires do not provide. This is another likely limitation of understanding on the part of some CrossClimate Owners.

Love these tires!

I bought 4 new CrossClimate 2 tires about 6 weeks ago and they are amazing, in rain, especially. My old tires would spin just taking off normally from a stoplight when the roads were wet. Now, they grip and take right off. Stopping is easier too. Definitely glad I made the investment in these tires!!

Best tire ever so far

I bought these a few months ago based on good reviews. I have a 2011 Nissan Murano. Getting old and noisy. Wow these tires made me feel like I was in a much newer car. So quiet ! Even on previously noisy roads. Worth every penny. Hoping I don’t have to put my winters on this year !

Smooth riding tires and great performance in the rain!

My husband bought the Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires because the salesman told him how many good reviews they had gotten from his customers. Boy was he right! I drove home in the pouring rain one night last week, and the car just drove right through the puddles on the road with no resistance! Wow! I give these tires an AAA+
