CrossClimate2 outstanding so far

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.

Best Tires I’ve Ever Owned

I recently purchased four Cross Climate 2 tires and they have exceeded every expectation. From steering on tight turns to stopping distance they are superior to any tires I’ve owned. I have AKWAYS purchased Michelin tires but these are a cut above the rest

Best Tires Ever

Wanting to get away from the noisy Continentals that came with my VW Passat GT, I found the CrossClimate 2 would provide the quiet, safe, and wet ratings that I needed. I only changed two before my road trip (NC to Texas end of Aug 2021) and immediately noticed reduce noise and had better handling. In New Orleans, I was there just as the hurricane was coming bringing in heavy rain. The CrossClimate 2 handled great even in heavy downpours. Last week, I picked up two more tires.. Wow! the mechanical resonance from replacing the two continentals dropped the road noise another 10 decibels and the handling only got better. I can't stop saying great things about these tires. Have been telling all my friends this is the next tire they should get.

Great ride with these tires

I purchased these ties on reviews. Some reviews stated that their Auto lost gas mileage. We own a 2020 Cadillac XT-5, V-6 310 HP, AWD. Before on the original tires we where getting 19.7 to 20.3 MPH. Highway mileage was the most 24.5. With these new CrossClimate2, the gas mileage increased to almost 23 MPG in the city and not quite 27 Highway. Only 1 time we received 34 MPG when we used the cruse control. The tire are quite, smooth riding and you do not hear any noise and good stopping in rain. Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Love the tires on my 2020 Honda Pilot

Excellent grip (accelerating and braking) and ride in all conditions. First road trip MN->SD this past summer was a pleasure on both dry and wet roads. Recently had a 20” snowfall this winter and again was very pleased with all aspects of the tires.

Great tires

I bought the Cross Climate tires when bought my 2021 and took the OEM tires off. I love these tires they do such a great job in rain and snow. I got 81,381 miles on the first set! I think I could have gotten more mileage on the tires, but ran one a nail and went into the sidewall and could not be repaired. I’m very pleased and impressed with these Michelin Cross Climate2 tires! I would recommend them to anyone!

Best all season tire -bar none

I read reviews and expected these tires to perform well and I have not been let down. By far the wet weather performance is better than I could have thought. On roads I used to hydroplane on I drive on through with control, albeit still trying to drive to the conditions! I hit some unexpected pooling on the highway and safely navigated through.

best all weather tire I have used so far

Bought this a year ago. I have always been using all-weather tires in all my vehicles. I tried other brands and this is the best choice. The ride is very smooth, stable and quiet. I don't feel any slips even on block icy roads. Acceleration and braking is superb. I feel very confident on the road with these tires. Dry, wet and icy traction is performing very well so far. I feel i made the right choice.

Best Tire Ever

I bought 4 CrossClimate2 tires for my wife's PT Cruiser, and liked them so much, I put a set of 4 on my Town & Country. The first thing I noticed was, they are quiet! The handling is very responsive with a good road feel, and stopping distance is very good. I'm anxious to see how they perform in Pennsylvania snows.

Excellent wet road handling and dry road comfort

Bought these last fall for my 2017 XT5. The tires perform well in all conditions, very quiet under all highway conditions, concrete and asphalt. Looking for a second set for another of my cars. I rotate every 10k miles, the first rotation highlighted no noticeable wear pattern. Way to go Michelin…….
