CrossClimate 2 is the best American-Made Tire Bar None
CrossClimate 2 is the best tire I've ever owned, bar none. Expensive, but worth every penny. First off, its made in the USA. Second, I put over 43,173 miles on my first set...on a heavy, sporty, fun Audi eTron battery EV. 3.1 years, averaging almost 14k miles/yr. Lots of HP, even more torque, 5500 pounds, spirited driving practically every day, heavy cornering, and even towing. And over 43k miles on these tires and still not down to the tread wear replacement mark!!! Unfortunately, we had a catastrophic puncture and decided it was time to replace all 4 after realizing they were over 3 years old already! The tires from the factory were TRASHED after 27k miles and 2 yrs, so we were stunned to realize we achieved 43k out of these CrossClimate 2's! Third, as the tires wore, they were practically just as grippy in rain and snow. And fourth - the entire reason we bought them in the first place was for the epic traction in rain and snow. Safety is paramount; the longevity, sportiness, and comfort were simply great bonuses along the way. Thank you, Michelin. There are some engineers out there somewhere that are the true unsung heroes of the day here.

Great traction, life expectancy questionable
Great traction during winter. Safest I've felt in WI winters for years. Treadwear is consistent on all 4 tires, but progressing faster than expected. Lost about 1/3 of the life in 9 months. I don't usually brake aggressively, but when I've needed to stop, I stopped.

Safety, durability, and economy all in one tire
When snow, ice, or pouring rain leaves other drivers unsure of their vehicles, the Cross Climate 2 tires on my Mazda CX-5 AWD leave me sure-footed, able to maneuver, accelerate, and stop with confidence. Probably the longest-lasting tires I've ever owned. I get about 30 MPG on average on the highway, so I didn't sacrifice fuel economy for safety and durability.

The Michelin CrossClimate3 tire launched in Europe in July 2025. Please note that the CrossClimate tires sold in Europe differ in design from those sold in North America. This is because consumers in each market have different priorities for tire performances based on driving style, vehicle types, geography, and climate. As a result, Michelin has tailored the tire construction to meet the unique needs of both regions. While the CrossClimate3 tire has been available in Europe since July 2025, North America will continue with the Michelin CrossClimate2 tire for the next several years. As a part of the Most Awarded tire brand in the U.S., the Michelin CrossClimate2 tire continues to offer industry leading performance and is designed to perform in all weather conditions, with excellent wet and dry braking. Based on our internal testing, the Michelin CrossClimate2 tire outlasted 10 different competitors and also lasts nearly 2 years longer than the new Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady®2 tire.(8)(10)

>> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
>> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
>> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.
WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.
DANGER: Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5" rim.
DANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim.
DANGER: Never mount a 19" diameter tire on a 19.5" rim.
DANGER: Never mount a 22" diameter tire on a 22.5" rim.
Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Exceeding the lawful speed limit is neither recommended nor endorsed.
For high-speed driving, additional inflation pressure and possibly reduced tire loading and/or upsizing is required. In the absence of specific recommendations by the vehicle manufacturer, use the following guidelines based on those in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organization Standards Manual.
For speeds over 160mph (100 mph), load and inflation must be adjusted according to the table below.
