Too many negatives

Research, reviews and tests were mixed on the cross climate 2 but I bought them anyway. They are not the worst tires I have ever had but not anything like the Yokahama Parada Spec X I took off either. They are good in rain, haven't driven in snow yet but they are rated high for snow but my issues with this tire is on dry tar. No changes to vehicle except new tires. The car wants to wonder now. It is difficult to keep it going straight at any speed. The car feels squishy on dry tar now. Doesn't feel stable anymore. I don't track my mileage but the car seems to drag now so I suspect the mileage decrease complaints are probably correct. The tires do make noise at times. Mainly on dry tar with the windows open and you are stepping on the gas. You must over inflate these tires to increase the stability. I run 40 psi in front for better steering but it helps only slightly and that may wear them out prematurely. The bottom line is that there are a lot of choices in tires no need to put up with the negatives of these tires.

A great set of tires except for the noise.

I am a faithful Michelin user for 30 plus years (driving 64 yrs) on light pickups, full size cars and mid size cars, utility van, have a Yukon XL 4 WD with 264,000 miles that has never had anything other than Michelin. I have never been disappointed with Michelin tires until now. Put a set of Cross Climate 2 on a 2017 Ford Escape at 51,638 miles and the car handles great, like an expensive sports car. However the tires are excessively noisy to the point I thought something was wrong with the car, the wheels or what ever. I paid three different tire shops to evaluate, one of which is my primary tire dealer and they all concluded nothing wrong with the car, it's the tires. It sounds like a pickup with a cheap set of worn out tires which I have owned before. The Cross Climate 2 will easily last 60,000 miles or more on this vehicle which means we must tolerate the noise another minimum 36,940 miles until time for a new set of tires. The tires perform very well as advertised with the exception of the noise. The noise is disappointing and embarrassing, especially when we have guest onboard. Photos upon request.

AMAZING Performance in Snow/Rain!

Purchased a set of CrossClimate 2 tires in September of 2022 for my 2012 Volvo XC90 to replace a set of worn Michelin Defenders which were great tires lasting 65,000 miles. My XC90 has 208,000 miles. 1 year and 40,000 miles later, the tires are at 7/32 with even wear. I perform rotations and balancing (if needed) every 5,000 miles. These tires have been AMAZING. They are quiet, provide amazing performance, and are wearing very well. I live in Minnesota and travel to Salt Lake City/Park City frequently. These tires are almost as good in the snow/ice as the Blizzaks I have on my 2017 Volvo XC90 in the cold months. Last winter was brutal, so drove many miles through a lot of snow/ice/slush/rain and had absolutely zero problems. They are PHENOMENAL in snow and rain, and great highway tires. They have tolerated chains in the mountains without any unusual wear. I have not had any decrease in fuel economy. I like them so much, I just replaced the Defenders on my other XC90 with a set of CrossClimate 2 tires. When it's time, I'll also put a set on my 2018 Volvo V60. Reading other reviews, I was reluctant to try these, but obviously my experience has been great. Perhaps my priorities are different because of the frequent severe weather I experience, but I love these tires.

Expectations exceeded on Cross Climate 2

I purchased my Cross Climate 2 tires less than a month ago and already have better than 5000 miles on the tires. I can best sum them up by saying “Wow” these are great tires! Cosmetically they look like an all season SUV tire but I've put them on a VW Golf and have to say they have transformed my car. Smooth, quiet, and simply phenomenal grip with no reduction in mileage from my old tires. To say my expectation was exceeded is almost an understatement.

The best tires ever

The best tires ever. I've discovered them in 2022 when I purchased my first set of 4 for my 2013 Camry. I rolled them up for over 110,000km whiting 3 years. Still in good shape. I had to change them with a new set of 4 due to the winter conditions in Canada. My car is a totally different car in terms of comfort, handling, performance and traction no matter the weather since the upgrade.

Hurts gas mileage

I bought a set of four of these tires for my 2017 VW Golf. The previous tires were OEM provided Continental ProTrack TX with about 40,000 miles on them. The old tread was getting low but still acceptable for Mass inspections. They also seemed to have developed a flat spot which was noticeable at low and high speeds. The Cross Climate 2 got very good review but in hindsight I don't recall seeing anything about highway mileage. On a trip I regularly make of about 70 miles with 60 highway, I would average 40-42 mpg. Now with these new Cross Climate 2 tires I only get 35-38 mpg. So after paying a top of the line tire I am going to continue to pay more every fill up through loss in gas mileage.

Meilleures pneus que j'ai eu.

Les meilleurs pneus que j'ai eu. Je les ai eu 2 hivers sur une voiture de tourisme et j'ai acheté les même de pneu pour ma deuxième voiture. Plus besoin de se casser la tête à changer de pneus 2 fois par année. En plus lors des grosse pluie ont ne sent pas la voiture tirer d'un côté ou de l'autre dans les grosse flaque d'eau.

Impressed!

What are difference tires make! I bought these for my Scion XD, and I notice a difference is most aspects of my driving. I also bought wheels that were slightly wider. The grip is so different. My car is more steady, and doesn't shift at the slightest twist of the steering wheel. I have better traction in cornering, even at low speeds. The ride is smooth and quiet! In the rain, I've had no issues and dont feel.like i have to try to avoid standing water in ruts. I have better traction taking off. These tires make a difference across all aspects of driving and so far in different conditions too! I have more confidence in my car and handling ability! I didn't know new tires would be this impactful!

Nice tire, horrible fuel mileage

Just bought these tires and did a 4,000 mile road trip form midwest to Oregon coast. Tires rode and handled well in through the mountains and cold damp roads. This big problem is that my fuel mileage dropped around 20%. I used to get 23-26mpg on the highway depending on the winds. With these tires, the highest I got was 21mpg with a tailwind. Average on the trip was 18-20mpg. I want to like these tires, but can't with a 20% fuel mileage hit.

RC, the Cross Climate2 is designed to perform in every climate with excellent wet and dry braking capabilities. There are other Michelin products that may provide better fuel efficiency. Remember, as part of the Michelin Promise Plan, your tires have a 60 day satisfaction guarantee. Simply return to the selling retailer to have the tires swapped out.

Half-life update...

Half-life update (30,000 miles). After a fresh rotation and balance, the tires feel new. The 5300lb Lexus handles great with even wear on all four. I recommend these tires to all who would listen. The confidence in bad weather is worth the price. The tires were purchased 12/19/22.
