I have bought these tires twice. They are the best tires I’ve ever owned however, beware they scream on concrete pavement.
Not bad at all. I have them on my Q5. This thing eats through tires and the CC2 have lasted the longest for sure.
I put these on my 2019 Highlander hybrid. 6k miles on them and love the wet and dry handling. I have dedicated blizzak winters but am going to run my cc2 this season as my blizzaks have 36k miles on them. Road trip soon that will include winter snow conditions. I will post how they handle. Also I did notice a 1.5~2 mpg drop in fuel economy.
Michelin CrossClimate2 are amazingly smooth and quiet. And they hardly wear at all. Over 20k on my set and they’ve only worn 1/32nd.
I don’t even live in a snowy environment but they are amazing in heavy rain. 70mph in heavy rain is easily doable
I can tell you the Cross Climate 2s are a fantastic tire - however I mostly stayed on pavement with the occasional gravel / dirt road - nothing with lots of rocks or potholes
I have a pair of Defender 1 and 2s on my 2017. Both great. Defenders will impact your MPG. Around 2-3 in my experience.
We put the Michelin Cross climates on 2 years ago, still no problems and much better gas mileage.
So, I got some Michelin X-Ice Snow tires put on for Winter!
The Pilot Sport Cup 2's had great grip but are VERY expensive and had a strong tendency to tramline - do not reccommend for the street unless you track the car. The Pilot Sport 4s have better manners on the street in the OEM sizes (305/30R19 & 315/30R19) and are less expensive than the Cup 2's.
I made a mistake of trusting the "independent" and "ubiased" tire rack reviews and purchased a set quatrac pro+. Absolute trash, especially if you value handling, gas mileage, turn in response, comfort and vibration free ride. 2 out of 4 tires had to be replace withing days due to unfixable vibrations and they still arent completely shake free.
