Your family's safety tomorrow depends on the tires you choose today, and the Michelin CrossClimate2 225/45R17 91V is the peerless year-round performance tire and Michelin's most advanced, most versatile passenger tire in more than two decades. Innovations in tread compound and design let it deliver unmatched year-round performance in unexpected weather conditions, an improved combination never seen before in a passenger or crossover tire for North America. It improves on the industry-leading record of its predecessor, the Michelin CrossClimate+, which earned top scores against all other performance all-season tires from one independent testing agency (Consumer Reports, Nov. 2019, test results for Performance all season tires). CrossClimate2 grips to the last stop for drivers who want to get out there safely and confidently year-round in all conditions, delivering unmatched gripping performance in the rain even when worn, and let's face it, everyone is driving on worn tires. RAIN: even in wet conditions, the worn CrossClimate2 beats Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady, a leading competitor, by more than 50 feet in wet-stopping tests from 50 mph, and among four leading competitors it stopped even as the others were still going 24 mph or more. DRY: stopping first matters in fair weather too, and CrossClimate2 stops up to 16 feet shorter (more than one full car length) on dry pavement than four leading competitors, so you can keep your cool even when traffic heats up. SNOW: with a 3-peak mountain snowflake rating, even when worn CrossClimate2 delivers up to 31% better traction in the snow than four leading all-season competitors, extending your safe-driving confidence across the seasons. Real-road testing shows it rolls safely and wears longer than leading competitors, and it's not even close. The first of its kind, CrossClimate2 delivers unsurpassed performance across all seasons without compromising treadwear, consistently providing up to one year of additional wear compared with four leading competitors, which adds more than 15,000 additional miles of year-round safe driving and safe stopping (based on U.S. DoT, 13,500 average annual miles per driver). It lasts 11-23% longer than the other leading all-season tires from the largest competitors (Continental CrossContact LX25 and PureContact LS, Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady, and Bridgestone Turanza QuietTrack). Michelin's innovative combination of rubber compound and directional tread design solves dealers' concerns about treadwear (mileage or longevity), noise and servicing. The directional V-formation tread design optimizes rain and snow traction while improving dry handling and long wear without compromise; other all-season tires can deliver one of these performances, but not all. Wear: the V-formation and 3D-SipeLock distribute forces evenly for long wear while delivering maximum grip and sporty handling in dry conditions. Noise: you can't hear a difference, because Michelin used PIANO Noise Reduction Tuning to design a tread with blocks and angles that cancel out harmonic road noise and create ideal amplitude for the contact patch, as quiet or better than Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady and Bridgestone Quiet Track based on internal test results.
