Into the second season. We live on Vancouver Island and have a wide variety of winter conditions. Although they don't perform in snow quite as good as Winter tires they have been excellent at switching between varying conditions of snow, ice and heavy rain on the same drive.

I think that this is a great tire! I replaced my Michelin Defenders with the Cross Climate 2. The traction seems much better and I haven't noticed a significant interior noise increase from them in comparison. At first, based on some reviews, I had some concerns. Also, no matter the tread left on older tires, I consider the age of a tire to be very important to me. Nearing six years, I will replace older tires. The comfort of these tires is perfectly fine. And, living in Minnesota, the versatility is important to me. A disabled veteran.

I am beyond happy with these tires. I purchased my SUV slightly used and the previous owner put Michelin CrossClimate 2 directional tires on right before he traded it in. I've had my vehicle for 2 years and am constantly impressed by them. Fantastic traction and performance in our Canadian winter even on ice. Plows through deep heavy snow like nobody's business. And in the summer and rain they are good as well, also great performance on gravel roads (although I'm not sure of the wear if you were to do them regularly). When I trade in this one, I will be purchasing a set for my new ride, VERY good tires-BUY THEM!!!

I put these tires on my 2011 Toyota Camry back last fall, and I do not regret the purchase. They make the car very sure footed when you hit a snowy, or slushy patch on the highway, they run quiet, and my highway gas mileage is still at or about 35mpg. They also handle very well in the rain, no skidding to a stop!

I bought the Michelin tires because I trust that I will be safe and have a comfortable ride. I have had Michelin tires on my last 3 Vehicles and been very satisfied in winter and summer and great traction in the snow. I would recommend them to anyone.

I bought this tire in December after the first Michigan snow and couldn't be happier with it. Great slush an snow traction. And surprisingly smooth and quiet. Handling is good. Fortunately haven't had to stress test stopping. Mileage not noticeably impacted, but the it is winter. Would definitely recommend.

I was really intrigued by the tread pattern, and at first thought that they could be a bit noisy. My mechanic said I would be surprised at how quite they are. I was replacing 4-year-old Michelins that I loved. And to my surprise these tires are almost silent compared to my previous ones! Well done, and the tire pattern has folks asking me about them frequently.

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.

I 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.

So far with few hundred miles the tires are great. Had some ice/snow and they did well. In the past I have had poor luck with Michelin tires in general. But bases on consumer reports ratings I decided to give the Cross Climate 2 a chance. I will report back after 5 thousand miles.
