Amazing grip on the road yet a very comfortable smooth ride and quiet which some people had a different opinion on. Just look at the design of the thread. The design allows water and snow to easily dispense from the tire assuring full contact under those conditions. My wife and I just retired and want to have a as much of a long life live as possible after all that hard work in the trenches.

The fact that the CrossClimate2 tire can handle snow but still be used all-year long and manage a 60,000 mile warranty was an attractive feature to a pensioner who had never had to make a decision about new tires. It was overwhelming, but the because of the Michelin name and reputation and because the dealer gave the Michelin tire such high praise convinced me they were the way to go. The reality that these tires make me feel safe because that are capable, comfortable and quiet has made me a believer and a fan. And I don't have to worry about changing tires every year is the utmost bonus!

Have a Toyota Sienna AWD, and tires perform ok in most terrain except for snow/slush. In snow/slush I don't feel my vehicle has a good grip/traction on the road with no more than 1/2" of snow/slush. Breaking in this terrain just doesn't cut it for me and mind you I have a AWD minivan, heavy vehicle. Don't feel confident on these tires claiming ALL-SEASON...

I recently purchased a set of 4 CrossClimate Tires. These are the second-more refined version of the CrossClimate model that came out before. The CrossClimate2 is built for higher speeds and extra safety. I can feel the difference in my turns at every time I break. I bought these for my Honda CR-V, with the intent of providing a safer ride for my child. So far, I'm very impressed.

The tires ride and handle well. Driving conditions are primarily in warm weather so traction is not an issue. One critique is the tires tend to flake, leading mechanics to recommend replacement earlier than expected. Wear on the tires was pretty even and they lasted close to the 60,000 miles expected. Except for the flaking, I'd give the tires a 5 star rating.

I bought a set for my 2013 Ford Focus in late March. I have about 5K miles on them and really like the handling and grip on both dry and wet roads. I can't wait so see what they are like this winter. I also put a set on my 2008 Ford Taurus X in September. Only a few thousand miles but just like the others they are great in wet and dry road conditions.

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.

Put a set on my wife's Kia Sorento in July - its now February and these tires have been through +40 to - 40 temperatures, heavy rain, heavy snow, freezing rain, mud, gravel roads, highway and city use. They are quiet, on highway and provide great handling in all conditions. I've been particularly impressed how they performed on ice and snow when it was - 42c here. I am now a firm believer in the capabilities of an all weather tire now (well, the cross climates anyway!)

So I drive for a living as a courier and purchase tires every couple of years. This is my third set of CrossClimate's and the grip and handling is such a huge upgrade from the stock tires that come on the vehicles. It's always a little stark because as tires get to the end of their life, you feel them lose their grip in wet and dry situations, but they roll very easy which leads to the best mileage you'll ever get in a vehicle. When swapping to these you instantly notice the grip on turns, how straight the car stays even when tires slightly spin in the rain, and the significantly shorter stopping distance. I typically drop about 4-5 mph in small sedans upon initial switching, but the safety advantages make driving so much easier on my mind! We've had these on a 2020 Honda Civic Hatchback, a 2015 Toyota Sienna Minivan, and now on my 2023 VW Jetta. The improved performance and safety was felt immediately when switching from all the vehicles previous tires, including another Michelin in the van. So while I wish they rolled a little better for gas mileage, I still have to give them 5 stars for overall performance and safety! *They are also very quiet!

Installed on a Sonata 2012 - couldn't be happier - no longer have to find room for storage for 4 additional tires on rims (now living in a condo), highly recommend the quiet ride, handling on corners, good stopping distance in rain and excellent in the snow. What more could I ask for?
