Why choose the Michelin CrossClimate2 in 225/45R18?
Built for sedans, hatchbacks, wagons, and everyday crossovers: The 95V XL rating gives this size extra load capacity for heavier trims, passengers, cargo, and EV or hybrid applications.
Severe-snow rated all-season traction: The CrossClimate2 carries the three-peak mountain snowflake symbol, giving shoppers a strong year-round option for rain, dry highways, cold mornings, and light to moderate winter driving.
Confident wet and dry stopping: Michelin engineered the CrossClimate2 for reliable braking in changing weather, including wet pavement performance as the tire wears.
Directional V-shaped tread design: The tread pattern helps move water and slush through the contact patch while supporting stable handling and everyday comfort.
Touring comfort for daily miles: This tire is a strong match for commuters, family vehicles, road-trip SUVs, and EV or hybrid drivers who want a planted, quiet ride without switching to a dedicated winter tire.

Customer Reviews
I like them and have purchased them twice now. They do what they set out to do. They are pricy and I’m not sure they are worth the premium over similar wuality tires. I know the CC2’s have been great for a while, but they are getting on in years and other manufacturers are catching up. I may look for similar options elsewhere. I was actually trying to purchase a different tire, but they couldn't get them in stock and offered to match the price of that other quality tire. I just dont want to reward Michelin for holding out on the CC3 for the US market. I mean Europe has it why not us?
The new tires make me feel more confident about my driving.
