MICHELIN CrossClimate 3 Sport REIFENBEWERTUNG

Much less compromises than expected

-precise handling -well balanced -pretty good also in wet conditions -absolutely recommended

Erstaunlich überzeugend für einen Ganzjahresreifen!

Eines vorweg, bis jetzt konnte ich den Reifen noch nicht im Schnee testen, bei trockener und nasser Fahrbahn ist er aber erstaunlich weit weg von einem "Kompromiss"! Er ist nicht ganz so direkt wie mein bisheriger mittelpreisiger Marken-Sommerreifen, aber keineswegs störend, auch bei leicht sportlicher Fahrweise. Er ist überdies etwas komfortabler als der Sommerreifen und was mich erstaunt, der Benzinverbrauch scheint sogar ein klein wenig niedriger als mit dem Sommerreifen - vielleicht aber auch nur besser ausgewuchtet.. Kurz: dieser Reifen hat nichts mehr mit den wirklich Kompromiss-behafteten Ganzjahresreifen von vor 10-15 Jahren zu tun.

Leider nicht in 17“ erhältlich

Für mini Cooper S JCW 205/17“ leider nicht verfügbar 🙁

Car feels more planted than on previous tyres

Definitely provide superior grip and cornering in all road and weather conditions

They are the best overall tyre for Scottish weather conditions, especially in winter

More comfort less wear more grip

As my first time purchasing Michelins and hearing good things about previous versions, I decided to "treat myself" when these CrossClimate 3 Sports came out. Nitrogen filling was an additional treat, when swapping with an All Season equivalent, from a competing brand (Goodyear). I can't be sure it's not psychosomatic, but I swear even the actual feel of the tyre, is different to the touch: the rubber just feels tackier and that certainly translates to the road, with significantly improved handling (in wet or dry), markedly less tyre slip on an enthusiastic standing-start, and far more confidence when going through standing water at speed. Yes, I can hear a little rolling noise, but nothing exceptional, and my fuel consumption hasn't materially changed. All-in-all, I'm fully satisfied with the purchase, and consider them an investment: I'd go as far as to state that they're the most tangible improvement I've made to the performance of the car.

I drove 75 miles in torrential rain across country and on the M1 and felt totally in control both on the winding bends and braking .I hate the M1 concrete surface around Leeds and have previously always had the sensation that I'm skating on ice even in dry conditions. Also there was always a very high pitched noise on this surface. The new tyres were a massive improvement, reducing the tyre noise to the background.

Improved road noise, steering feels much better.
