Excellent tires! Need more sizes though
I bought these for my 2011 Kia Sorento with 18" tires and they are amazing! Going through puddles and heavy water areas has less hydroplaning if any at all and the car doesn't slow down as much. The handling through turns in both wet and dry situations is awesome and I feel very secure in the handling of my vehicle as I always have if not more now. My only complaint is that they don't offer these in a 255/50-20 which is the size I need for my Ford Explorer XLT. I'm forced to buy a different tire. Hopefully they'll have a better range of sizes when i'm ready to replace those.
Great onroad - horrible offroad.
Drove 17,000 miles cross country on these tires. They are good for paved roads, but the moment you hit any sort of gravel drivway, dirt road to campground or sandy path they REALLY suck. My car is not an offroad vehicle but on occasion we would have to take a gravel road or drive to an established campsite on dirt or sand these tires have horrible traction. The whole car shifts side to side when breaking. I have not used these in the snow but I don't plan to as they cannot even handle a little sand in the street.

After only 30 miles I love these tires
Very quiet, precise handling, soft ride: Much better than the Yokohamas that came with the RAV4
Quick service
Bought 2 tires, big O service was quick. Made appointment one day, ordered tires and they were put on the next day. Tires tread looksean and look like they'll do well in inclimate weather.
Loud and vibration at highway speeds
Purchased a month ago. Was hoping they would be awesome after all the reviews. Disappointed

Transformational
I purchases a certified pre-owned 2018 Subaru Impreza in March 2021. I very much liked the car, except the handling--there was a little play in the steering wheel. The salesman said it is normal, due to something or other. It was not normal, it was due to bad tires. I knew I had to replace the tires and recently moved to Pennsylvania, where it snows quite a bit. I also now live on a hill. Needless to say, I wanted to get the best possible snow-rated tires I could find. Cost was very secondary, considering a good tire could help prevent an accident. I found the Michelin CrossClimate2 after doing research. I was very impressed with the reviews, but mostly the great rating for driving in snow. I got the tires about 3 days ago, and my Subaru feels like a completely different car. Firstly, the play in the steering wheel is completely gone. Secondly, it's as though I have a new suspension and shock absorbers. The ride is radically better. By far the most comfortable ride for a compact car I have ever been in. Michelin is known throughout Europe as being synonymous with quality. In fact, they publish the Michelin Red and Green guides, and you may know of the famous Michelin "3-star" restaurants. Well this is a 3-star tire. One note, when the dealership replaced my tires, all 4 tire valve stems somehow broke. They never gave an explanation. When I picked up the car the first time, the "low tire pressure warning light" went off after about a mile. The dealership claimed this has never happened before. The light was not going off prior to getting the new tires. Just a heads up.
Sleek design
Been on wife’s car for almost a month now. Has a nice sleek design. Drives and corners well in wet weather. Smooth ride and hoping it does just as good in the snow as it does in the rain.
I am blown away..
The title says it all. I run these tires daily and for my rallycross tire setup. They are not tearing up on dirt/gravel at all. I am able to run these for multiple sessions. Being a service advisor and seeing all of the different types of tires quite often.. Michelin has earned me being Michelin Biased when recommending tires.
Had one day
Quiet,good ride steering outstanding. The tire shop only used 2 1oz to balance all 4 tires. Thats excellent manufacturing. MORE TO COME WHEN WE GET SNOW.
