MICHELIN CrossClimate 2 REIFENBEWERTUNG

Insufficient traction

I had these tyres fitted on a BMW with 300 BHP and xDrive. They are terrible. Tyre squeal when cornering and they had a massively negative impact of the handling and stability of the car.

Excellent tyre

Having been in the tyre business for some years I have tried numerous tyres on my vehicles, my thoughts turned to these after a driving experience at a test track called Mira, what an experience, I put these to the test by putting them on a friend's taxi, he got 53000 miles out of them, and was one of a few that had no problems at all during the winter season, I now have these on my own vehicle and must say don't think I will put anything else on now, they stick to the road like the excrement to your shoe, Michelin hat of to you

Best all season tyre

Tried Goodyear vector 4seasons and they didn’t last. Tried these a couple years ago and haven’t looked back! They are fantastic. Anyone criticising these are expecting these to perform like summer tyres which is an unfair comparison. They do 90% of a summer tyre and 90% of a winter tyre which makes them perfect for UK roads & weather.

CrossClimate

Bought these previously as I have young children, I’d buy again and would recommend this amazing tyre buy buy buy…

Transformed my Car

I’ve a Ford Focus Vignale 2ltr Auto. It had Continentals on when I bought it which were noisy and didn’t like rutted roads at all. Replaced the Continentals with Cross Climate tyres and the car was transformed - Much smoother and quieter ride with exceptional Road holding. Do not skimp on tyres, your life is not worth it !!

Gravel trap

I’ve had the Cross climate 2 fitted for two weeks, all four tyres , and I’m disappointed that the tread pattern collects small stones and gravel that do not easily come away owing to the chevron pattern of the tread. Wish I had purchased the Michelin primacy now

Michelin crossclimate tyres are great for year use. Sure footed when cornering or braking. Highly recommended

I have purchased Michelin tyres since 1971, I have until recently done high mileage and found Michelin tyres last longer than most others especially the cheap tyres which only last 1 year I did between a minimum of 24,000 miles a year.

Fuel consumption significantly worse

I have maintained a comprehensive analysis of fuel consumption in my Fabia Estate since purchased second hand in March 2021. It then had 18800 miles on the clock. Having had a great experience of Cross Climate tyres on my VW Polo, I replaced the tyres with Cross Climate 2 in Nov '21 when the milage was 23700. My average consumption was 44.1mpg over those 5000 miles. With CC2 tyres my consumption over 2591 miles has been 41.3mpg - a drop of 6.3%. This is most disappointing, and I cannot recommend this tyre. Sad, after such a favourable experience with the previous version.

Bought a set of these 6 weeks ago and have been impressed. Grip greatly improved….altho the summer tyres these replaced were at life end….but also pleased with economy and noise. After much research I bought these because I concluded that they were the best/ near best on the market….and so, far, I am happy with my choice. Interested to see how longevity and driving in the warmer months are similarly positive.
