These are excellent tires for our 2020 Subaru Outback Touring XT. Comfortable and quiet ride with low noise and good traction. We have not yet had the opportunity to drive in rain or snow yet to judge wet traction, but dry road performance is excellent. We reviewed test results from Consumer Reports and Tire Rack to help selection.

I’m using Michelin CrossClimate 2 in size 235/65 R17 on an Audi Q5 quattro (SUV). Overall, the tire performs very well in dry conditions and also handles regular rain without any issues. For everyday driving on wet or dry asphalt, the stability and comfort are good. However, the tire shows serious limitations as soon as there is wet snow or slush on the road, especially around +2°C. Braking performance becomes very weak, and the car tends to slide forward even at low speeds, around 15–30 km/h. In these conditions, the tire simply cannot provide sufficient grip, and stopping distances become dangerously long. Because of this, I was forced to purchase a new set of proper winter tires, as continuing to drive with the CrossClimate 2 in these conditions poses a real risk of an accident and serious danger. A similar issue appears when the road is only slightly damp after light rain during colder autumn/winter days — braking and stopping distances noticeably increase, even when driving slowly. Conclusion: Excellent tire for dry, wet, and mild winter conditions, but not reliable in slush, wet snow, or low temperatures. If you live in an area where wet snow is common, this tire may not be a safe choice during winter.

I drive 65k miles a year. The current set of CrossClimate 2 have 80k miles on them. I rotate these tires with each oil change every 5k miles. This set still has 6/32’s tread left on all 4 tires. The all weather traction is amazing. Great traction in the rain reducing hydroplaning and great stopping. I drive a front wheel drive Camry and I was able to safely travel with 6+ inches of snow this year on several occasions. I would not buy another tire knowing the abilities of these tires. I still drive with care during inclement weather but I feel safer knowing I have these tires gripping the highway. All tires are not created equal. These tires were designed for travelers and I’m grateful for them. This is my second Camry with CrossClimates and both sets lasted over 80k before turning in the car. I hate turning in an old car each time for a new car not knowing the abilities of the tires on the new car. These need to be standard equipment on Toyota Camry’s.

I did not choose these CC2 tires for my new to me 2011 Volvo S60 T6 AWD. I found them noisy on smooth roads. On paved country roads that are not the best of surfaces you can feel and hear most small bumps. They transfer the noise and feel of road irregularities into the Vehicle cabin. We have purchased many sets of Michelins tires throughout my 60 years of driving. I’m 75 now. We buy Volvos and Mercedes and often have 4 to 5 cars licensed and insured ready to go. These CC2 are very new less than 5000km. I might switch them to another of our cars or hope they wear out soon. In the plus side they have good traction when cornering a bit aggressively. I guess I’ll have to wait until it rains to check out their wet characteristics.

this is my second pair of these tires. The first ones i loved sooo much. This pair, quite difficult. At first i thought they had a balancing issue, so i brought them back to be re-balanced. They still make my seats shake whike im driving. And the noise, they're quite noisy. I dont know what happened. Maybe they were in a rush on production day, but this pair made me hate these tires. As far as durability, i think thats the best part i cant complain about and the traction is good all over. But at the cost of wobbly seats and a very loud ride.

The best tires for my Subaru Ascent. I am on my second set of the cross tires. I got 94000 on my first set and they still had some life left. I’m on my second set now with 25000 miles and they still look new and perform fantastic. The sure foot tracking both on rain and snow is amazing! Worth the price!

Just had them installed, wow what a difference from previous tires. Very smooth, quiet and definitely a handle ing improvement as well. Can’t wait to drive them in snow or rain but expect the same. Only issue is trying to get them registered for the Michelin Promise Plan (like my other Michelin purchase a couple years ago) as dealer did not do it?

A great all year around tire, which totally worth its price! Great performance and durability in any condition such as slushy snow, rain and dry roads. If you are an average driver and don't push your car to limits, this is the best tire that you can buy that saves you time and money by eliminating seasonal tyre switchovers

I have these tires now for little over a year on my 2022 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport. Some reviews were saying the tires are a bit noisy, but honestly I did not notice that. All I notice is great grip on rainy drives and I also tested them on the snow here in WNC. The grip and braking also in the snow was excellent. Couldn't be happier and order a new set for my 2010 Subaru Impreza STi just today.

Good braking and grip very smooth and good in all weather!
