I go through a set a tires once every 12-16 months and these are by far the best for winter driving. I have had every high end tire from basically the top three or four manufacturers and these win hands down. I live in West Michigan and we get dumped on with wet, heavy lake effect snow, rain and ice. We just had about ten inches over night and I spent the morning on plowed and unplowed roads, heavily salted slushy roads, steep hills and icy bridges. Ice is a moot point for any tire but these handled exceptionally well through any of the adverse conditions the weather and road conditions had to offer from start to stop period. I cannot understand how someone would give these a bad review for winter driving saying they are spinning in slush they obviously do not have much experience driving. I drive a front wheel drive four door sedan. Again, if you have doubts about these tires do not you will be very happy with your purchase.

Did not know about the hit my 2021 Camry XLE' gas mileage was about to take when I bought. Buying a hybrid car was an attempt to get great mileage, and now the average is about 3 MPG lower. No other complaints about these tires, but I would not have bought them (Nov 2023) if I had known the mileage would degrade.

After much research, I replaced a set of Yokohama Geolander tires with a set of CrossClimate2 on my wife's 2015 Lexus NX. WOW, what a difference in ride and road noise. It was like getting a new vehicle. The Yokohama tires were original equipment on our NX, and I always complained about the road noise and harsh ride. I thought it was the car and now I know it was the tires! I'm curious how they will perform this winter on snowy roads on our 2wd SUV. So far, great tires!

Although I've only had these for a short time and have traveled a relatively short distance by many standards they seem to be at least as good as any other tires I've owned and are far superior to most. They've proven to be especially good at handling conditions that have caused hydroplaning for me with other tires -- torrential blinding rainstorms on stretches of interstate with bad drainage for example.

I bought these last fall to get me through the winter. I drive 90 miles round trip to and from work and you can never be sure what the weather is going to do. As far as winter traction they are amazing. The ride is smooth and quiet. I would highly recommend this tire unless you are looking for good fuel economy. I have lost almost 8 mpg since installing these. The roll resistance must be pretty high to drop my fuel mileage by that much. Very disappointing considering the cost and the fact they are Michelins. But if you want great traction, ride comfort, and a quiet ride, look no further...

Finally, one tire that does it all. North Central Connecticut, two winters now haven't had to worry about them. Haven't had to buy two sets of tires. Slightly more noise, but nothing bothersome. These are on a 2015 Accord LX. These are basically set it and forget it tires. Wet, dry, snow, predictable everywhere.

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 JUST EXCHANGED MY DEFENDER 2 TIRES AFTER 5 WEEKS FOR CROSSCLIMATE 2 TIRES BECAUSE THE DEFENDER 2 TIRES WERE TOO LIGHT FOR MY 2005 LINCOLN TOWN CAR AND WERE TRANSMITTING ROAD VIBRATIONS THROUGH MY STEERING WHEEL. THE CROSSCLIMATE 2 TIRES ARE HEAVIER AND PROVIDE A LIKE FACTORY-NEW, VERY SMOOTH RIDE!

The CrossClimate 2s are fantastic snow tires. I have never had the kind of traction that I have with these tires. I had Nokian WRG4 before these and the Michelins run circles around the Nokians. They are excellent dry and wet weather tires too. I don't think they can be beat. I don't have a lot of miles yet so I can't testify to their durability.

I read all the reviews but hardly any had the same vehicle as mine so it was a tough decision but I went with the crossclimate2 because of tire racks testing numbers. I have roughly 5,000 miles on them and they so far are the best tires I've owned. I replaced Mich MXV4 which were the OE but these crossclimate out perform them by far. They improved road handling,have very little road noise , are excellent in the rain and I'm still getting 35 mpg out of the V6 … the only question left to answer is how long with they last .The MXV4 lasted me 65k if these last that long I will be extremely happy.
