im leaving in canada we have extremely bad weather and snow here. im running this tires for like 3 winters now, they were good tires to be honest..

Im 50 and never owned a set of tires that did NOT get a puncture (too close to sidewall) BEFORE the tread wore how. How the heck you make it 70K miles without one tire ruined?

I was wondering were you lived. It's pretty green outside for February. These are great tires but you really don't need the "All Weather" rating that your paying for.

Thank you, now I know what my next tire will be, maybe Cross Climate 3 as my summer Michelins have few more years ahead!

75k is 15k over the tire warranty so that's pretty good for a tire and probably the most treadlife out of any tires in the last 3 to 4 decades. I bought a set of these when you could only get them wholesale. I don't drive my car too often so I've only got around 15k on mine, maybe, but they were pretty amazing in this Blizzard here in NE Kansas this past weekend. Everyone else was getting stuck, even 4WD's with proper tires (tread and winter tires), but here we are just driving around in 14 inches of snow and about an inch of ice under it all. I wished they made them in older pickup truck sizes because I'd have a set on that vehicle too. Michelin was on to something with these and have probably had the best designed tire in years. The last tire that made waves like this was the original Goodyear Aquatred's which had similar effects in the winter even tho they were really rated as a summer tire back then. Great vid.

Are these good for california hot summer and wer winter weather? I have been using Michlin defender.

I use them for winter tires on my Bolt EUV. Great tire, but they definitely take more energy than the low rolling resistance OEM tires. Worth it just as winter tires though.

Any issue with the 19" wheel size on the Rav4 Limited's rubbing the wheel wells? Because on mine they did badly on the front when I applied full lock. These tires are even visually far larger than the stock tires.

I also have a rav4 Hybrid how has your fuel economy preformed with these CC2 ❓ 🤔

I had a set of cross climate they done 85k before I changed them ! 👍👍👍

What’s the tire size??

Tyre wear depends on a number of factors including the road surfaces that you drive and your tyre pressures. I keep our CC2's at 2psi over recommendation and have not seen any consumption or performance issues over the previous summer tyres that were fitted to my car from new in the UK. These perform brilliantly in the wet and icy conditions of central England as well as in the warmer summer. Best tyres that I have ever bought.

4s and 5s... lots of tread life remaining. The Wear Ribs are still a ways down in the Tread, and in snow, they will wear very slowly

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

Update: These tires are LOUD on our 2018 Subaru Outback! Passengers constantly joke about a motorboat or an airplane following us. But quiet as can be on the 2014 Forester. Weird. (And more than a little annoying.) Guess you can never predict road noise.

What state or city are you in?

I don’t wait until my tires are down to 2/32 to replace unless I’m coming up on a dry season. If I’m approaching winter and I’m low I’m getting new tires.

Loss of 3 to 5 mpg when new? That sounds a bit much. I'm curious to hear what actually happens.

Nice review Vince , I’m planning to put them on my 2023 RAV4 prime, The tread on the Dunlop as of 20k miles is running light plus slippery

Excellent, thanks

what do you think about the new Goodyear Weatherready 2 tires? How do those compare to these crossclimate 2 tires? Thanks!

👍🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Wow what do you do to get that mileage

70H or 70V?

I have these on my Miata, 25000 miles and they are at 7/32. I rotate the tires every oil change about 3800 miles, and I drive the Miata like I stole it.

Thank you for the update. I also love these tyres. Had some nokian all qethera and road noise and wear. No comparison. Cross climate ll are by far the Best

BTW I love the Comment about x or y brands. I've used most most of the best brands, Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Goodyear etc, can, and do, make excellent tires, they also make some less excellent ones. What makes Michelin stand over the rest is balance great performance all around. I've used ultra high performance and snow tires from all these brands for decades and what always brings me back to Michelin is that overall excellence in all tire characteristics. The cross climate is the apex of that philosophy, its not a high performance tire but it's still superb in summer, it's not as good as a WS bkizzak in winter, but its not too far from it. In that it stands where very few other tires on the market exist, its a great tire in any weather condition. Until someone comes up with a tire that can be as good in the summer as a Michelin PS4 in the summer and a Bridgstone WS series in the winter, it will reign supreme. No better flattery than Goodyear's newest all climate tire.....the tread (dont know about the rest of the tire) is a 100% copy of the cross climate.😂

They are superb in snow. As good as most dedicated snow tires. They are much, much better than any so called all season tire in any winter condition. That's their main forte. In general so called all season tires are OK to good in summer and terrible in winter. The Cross Climate is a very good tire regardless of the season. Other manufacturers have copied them (all weather category is growing) with variable success but the Cross Climate is still the snow king among them. The best description is a dedicated snow tire that you can use all year. Its all in the compound!

I'm also an Uber/Lyft Driver in Northern California and was looking for some All Terrain or All Season tires that did good in the snow and still had great comfort and low road noise on the highway. I've been using Bridgestone Turanza Quiettrack with 80k mile warranty but they only lasted about 60k miles each time. I'll definitely have to try the chalk test as I just recently learned about that! I was going to go with the Falken Wildpeak AS Trail but after seeing the outstanding reviews on America's Tire website and Tire Rack, I'm once again having a change of heart about which tires to get. Downside about these tires is that it's $1250 for a set of 4 with the Big O' Tire damage warranty.

in the winter what is the tire pressure set at 36 PSI cross climate 2

Eliminate the “ahs” and “ums”.

Everyone sounds like cc2 is the only one to buy, Michelin should get rid of the rest and bang on this?

Awesome update! Thank you for taking the time to do this. Insane that you are at 4-5/32 at 75k miles. They are long lasting.

75k in one year?!!!

I live 1 mile on a gravel road. Should the rock holding ability keep me from buying a set of these? They are sure a different tread pattern than I have ever seen. Thanks for the review. Tom

I believe the center is meant to be slightly higher, if I remember correctly from the engineering explained video.

Interesting your door said 34 PSI cause mine says 36 PSI. Wonder if it's a hybrid versus gas thing

Can you get Kleber tyres? I have used Michelin CC2’s in the past, but now have set of Kleber Quadraxer 3’s. Kleber is owned by Michelin. You never see the Kleber tyres in the same group test as the Michelins - because they are better. Better ride quality, quieter, but just as effective in the snow plus high aquaplaning resistance and excellent wet grip. They last too.. However they are 30% cheaper than Michelin CC’s.

Thanks for this video. How many miles did you get out of them? I just bought a set.

Hello! Do you use these tires in the summer? How do they show themselves in the heat?

Watched your entire "series" on these tyres. Informative and to the point. Thank you! Question from me: have you considered using the SUV variant? The specs indicate a better load index and rolling resistance (especially XL marked).

The Best Tyres are Michelin and Continental

Hello. this is all season tyres All season Michelin CrossClimate 2 245/45R19 102Y XL ? thank you

classic example of the dangers of allowing every nitwit to post youtube videos.

Did they become loud?

Tire pressure is largely dependent on vehicle weight. Check your door jamb for the recommended pressure for your vehicle.

I just bought 4 new Michelin Cross climate 2 tires to replace my Bridgestone Ecopia tyres that came with my brand new 2024 Subaru Forester and those were also great tires for driving also but are not winter rated and living in Northern Alberta Canada I need winter tires. I opted for the Cross climate 2 tires with some research before buying because they are winter rated with the 3 snow flakes symbol on the tire sidewalls + you do not need a second set of tires and rims to drive the other seasons. I did do sound testing with my audio feedback sensor I bought to see if there where a difference in DB audio, I'm pleased to mention that the audio feedback on the Michelin Cross climate tires are 1-2 DB quieter than my factory new Bridgestone tires (I will sell my Bridgestone tires now) . Michelin Cross climate 2 tires handle well and look aggressive also for the winter conditions that we have in Northern Canada with slush, snow and ice that makes driving a little scary sometimes. Very happy camper!!

I have 30000 on my CC2's. Love the performance in all conditions. They are on a 2019 Toyota highlander fwd v6. Current projection is 70000 miles down to 4/32nds. Highly recommend.

I just put Michelin defender 275-65-18 and I live them, cost little more but Michelin is the way to go

how was the noise at 75K miles?
