MICHELIN CrossClimate2, All-Season Car Tire, SUV, CUV - 205/55R16 91H

Perfect tire

Update 12/17/2023: Our Crossclimate II's have just under 46,000 miles on them without a speck of trouble. We have them rotated every 7,000 miles with our oil changes. The brand new spare, also a Crossclimate II has never seen pavement. The warranty on these is 60,000 miles, but I honestly feel they could go a little longer if rotated regularly. We have another 25,000 miles of road trips on the books for 2024, so we will replace them at some point, possibly during our month-long stay in New Mexico in June. I really hate to replace them before we leave for a 2.5 month western US trip in late April as there will still be 7,600 miles left on the original 60,000 mile warranty. Still the best tires we have ever owned...We are 19,000 miles into a 24,000 mile road trip. We left Okeechobee, FL in mid September 2022 and drove to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks for 6 weeks, then to New Mexico for 5 weeks, Badlands National Park for a week and currently are finishing a month in Canora, Saskatchewan.In planning for a trip, we had to decide on 1) replacing our excellent all season Hankook Kinergy radials with winter snow tires in New Mexico before heading north into Canada in December, which would have to be replaced at the end of our trip or 2) finding a tire that would be suitable for all season driving and also capable in winter conditions. After a lot of research, we came upon the Michelin CrossClimate II, an all season tire with a 60,000 mile treadware and 3 PMSF (Peak Mountain Snow Flake) rating.We purchased 5 of the Crossclimate II's and had them installed on our 2012 VW Jetta Sportwagen including the spare before departing, storing the old tires in our garage, ans they stiull have 50,000 miles of tread left. As for performance, these tires are great on dry pavement, excellent in rain and surprisingly good in snow up to 6 inches deep. We had our first test in Big Sky, MT and driving in Yellowstone in October 2022. Yellowstone was hit with a couple of early snowstorms which turned the roads to freezing slush and ice. We never felt unsure on these tires. The control is excellent. We never got stuck once.In Saskatchewan, we have put about 2,000 miles on them on 50% paved and 50% unpaved roads. We can cruise at 60 MPH on plowed but snow-covered highways with sure footing. 545-50 MPH on unpaved roads. We tested them out in 6 inches of new snowfall early one morning before the plows had wored in Canora, and our car went through the snow like a hot knife through butter.We had originally planned to switch back to the Hankooks when we get home and save the Michelins for another winter trip, but we like them so much we may just keep them on and replace when needed.

Top quality ride, makes your car looks better

Great tires that can be used year round including deep snow.

I’ve had these tires on my Jetta for a little over 10k miles now. There is no doubt about how great they are in snow and slush, but they do rob from fuel economy in the process. I went from a MPG average of 42 hwy to 38. Overall great tires so far.
