Bought CC2 to replace OEM tires on Subaru Outback after dealer tried to sell different brand with MAJOR markup. Traction (particularly in snow and ice on slopes) and road noise are dramatically better with these tires! Definitely worth slight cost increase, and would buy another set without reservation.

I put a lot of Colorado miles on various versions/sets of the LTX's wear was always better than advertised but comfort and noise suffered. I almost jumped ship looking for that perfect tire. I have the 19 inch wheels and went the the Cross Climate 2 with the 105H rating. I am so glad I stuck with Michelin. These tires are the quietest and best riding tires I have had on this car. I have 500 mountain miles on these driving faster than I should have testing the handling in tight corners etc and have no complaints. Played in some ice and hard pack in the parking lot and they seem fine. A true test will come once the real snow starts falling on the highways.

Like some of you I read in Consumer Reports that the CrossClimate2 is a top-rated all-season tire, and I also watched videos like the one from Engineering Explained on youtube. I also read reviews here. Even after all that, I wondered what these tires would really be like. My previous tire was a Goodyear Eagle LS-2 that was the OEM tire for my 2018 Acura TLX. The Goodyears had 46k miles on them, but they still had plenty of tread left and were only three years old, but I wanted to replaced them because I wasn't happy with their performance in any season—dry, wet, or in snow. And so I was looking for a major performance and safety upgrade to justify the expense of early tire replacement. I'll give details below, but long story short the Michelin CrossClimate2 tires are outstanding so far. I've been driving since 1980, and I've driven most of the major tires brands over the years, and so far these are the best tires I've ever owned. Quietness: This is the one area where the Goodyear Eagle has a small edge, but the CrossClimate2 is still a quiet tire that's good for a luxury car. And actually the CrossClimate2 is much quieter around corners. The Goodyears in moderate cornering would squeal in protest, and make it seem like I was 1970s cop show or something trying to make a dramatic get away. The CC tires are no drama tires in comparison. Comfort: About equal. Both very comfortable. Interestingly the CrossClimate2 seems a bit better at handling speed bumps. MPG: About the same as the Goodyear Eagle. This was a surprise, because I was prepared to give up 2-3 mpg for a better tire, but the mpg seems to be about the same for me. Obviously ymmv. Lateral grip: Wow. Big difference. Where as mentioned the Goodyear Eagle tires were squealing for mercy at moderate speeds around corners, and seeming like they might even lose grip, the Michelin tires are great in comparison. No drama. Excellent road grip in corners. More fun to drive. Major upgrade. Safer. Took some twisting 2-lane country roads I'm quite familiar with, as well as a steeply banked cloverleaf onramp that's a favorite, and it's clear the Michelin tires are on a whole different level. It feels like you're riding on rails with the CrossClimate2. Stopping distance: Didn't try a panic stop, but going downhill on a familiar country road with no one behind me I did a rapid stop from a good speed up to a stop sign, and the CC tires seemed to stop significantly faster and with greater confidence. On center feel: This was a surprise, but perhaps because of the directional V pattern of the tread it seems like the on-center feel for the new tires is much better. I like the road feel. I feel more connected to the car and to the road with the Michelin tires. I've only owned these tires for a few days and about 300 miles so far, and the conditions have been dry, and so I'm not sure at some point I'll get to try out the two probably strongest areas for the CC tires—wet traction and snow traction. Right now I'm feeling confident the tires will live up to expectations. Overall, the CrossClimate2 tires seem like a great upgrade, and well worth the money if you are looking for a premium all-season tire with the Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating.

We have had one full cold winter and one full hot summer on these tires. Winter performance better than most winter tires. Summer performance better than most summer tires. Great grip on ice and snow, even in Canadian winter; low rolling resistance in summer, excellent on wet roads, quiet and responsive. Minimal wear after 15,000 km. We are no longer switching tires rwice a year. This is a dream of an all-season tire!

I was skeptical about these All-weather tires until I put them on my daily. I have used sets of UHP tires on my other cars and I am impressed by the performance in both dry and wet for tires that you could also use in winter conditions. Speaking of winter performance, you cannot expect it to be as good as a set of dedicated winter tires from Michelin or other decent brands, but as long as you know how to drive properly in winter, these tires will serve you well and you don't have to buy another set of wheels and tires anymore. I did not test it on the same car but personally I think it even outperform some cheap or old winter tires that I have tried. If you are on the fence, just give it a try and you are not going to regret it.

The tires have been on the car for 1 year and just had them rotated and they look to be in fantastic shape. Due to our weather differance from one city to the next I feel this is the perfect tire as it works very well in wet rainy conditions as well as snow. So leaving the rain slick roads of Chilliwack heading east over the snow cover highway to Penticton I could not ask for a better tire. Now because I live in the rainy section mostly the stopping power and distance is unreal. Thanks for such a great tire and keep moving forward.

Bought these 23 months ago. Used on a 2010 Rav4 V-6. also upgraded to an 18-8 inch rim to run a larger stock size and they run awesome! Mostly dry weather, but rain in AZ can be heavy and they do well. Also great traction for all season if in some snow. Seem to be wearing very well, but I keep up on checking pressures and rotations.

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 were suffering from loud tire noise in our 2017 Kia Sportage with 40k miles on OEM tires. We tried balancing, rotating, etc numerous times in the last 2 years since we had plenty of tread life remaining we wanted to avoid buying new tires. However Costco techs and my research indicated these CrossClimate 2 were very quiet. We bought these and I was shocked the car sounds and handles like a different car. After one month of driving I am happy to report these are exceptionally quiet. I would definitely buy again.

I just had my second set of 4 tires installed today! The first set were very nice and cut the snow very aggressively! I looked at competitors options but one didn't make tires for a Toyota Sienna the other compared to the crossclimate2 just didn't match the tread pattern. Living in Buffalo NY, having a tire that handles all weather conditions is very beneficial. For years we switched tires over which was very inconvenient and expensive. You won't be disappointed... At least we weren't!
