Given 94% while driving a Skoda Superb II combi 2.0 tdi cr (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 35,000 average miles
I'm seriously impressed with these tires.
I had a set of 4 Crossclimates fitted to my superb 20 months ago and have since covered around 35,000 miles. The fronts still have 4mm of tread left on them and there's no sign of the levels of grip diminishing (as a comparison my car (second-hand) came with a virtually brand new set of Goodyear Eagles on it and they lasted for around 15,000 miles.)

They grip well in all conditions and are especially impressive in mud (I do a lot of outdoor sports so am frequently driving on farm tracks and parking in fields).

I'd buy these again without hesitation.

Great tires overall. I have used these tires for almost 6 months and 15k kms and I habe inly good words ro describe Crossclimate tires. I live in a very rainy area in the North of Spain and i really took advantage of this model's great performance on wet roads.

To be honest, although i have driven on very cold surfaces with them, i have no experience on snowy roads.

Given 90% while driving a Volkswagen Golf Mk6 (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 500 easy going miles
Replaced a set of Falcon's on the front and what an amazing difference the cross climates have made. Most notably these tires are so much quieter, more comfortable, especially across pot holes and I'm seeing around a 10% increase in economy. They seem more secure on fast sweeping bends at motorway speeds and hold a line far more accurately that the Falcon's. Unable to comment on winter handling and wear but I hope those atttributes will prove as good as the other positive characteristics. I'm so impressed and am contemplating replacing the rear tires a little earlier than necessary as the increased economy should help pay for the tires.

Given 91% while driving a Audi A6 (205/60 R16 V) on a combination of roads for 6,000 easy going miles
The tire handled very good in all conditions. I have tried on snow, rain, dry and they are good. I feel safe during driving in all conditions. I have tires from october 2016. I have passed 10000km and depth tread rudesed from 7mm (new) to 6mm. Front tires have some small cuttings (like from excessive slipping, but I am very easy on accelerator) but nothing sirious. I will see how they will handle summer temperatures (which are going to 40C in my place).

Given 96% while driving a Audi A6 Allroad 3.0 TDI (225/55 R17 H) on a combination of roads for 20,000 spirited miles
Been driving Crossclimates 225/55/17 for around 1.5 years on Audi A6 Allroad C6 (weights 2 tonnes). Extremely quiet, excellent grip on both wet and dry, hot or cold. It's completely irrelevant if temperatures are below zero or above 35 oC. Crossclimates also perform well on snow, but don't expect wonders. Since roads and highways are 99% clean and salted during winter season, all I cared about is grip on wet and cold and these tires never failed me. The only problem I found so far is aquaplaning at higher speeds.

Also, another thing worth mentioning - they don't wear fast, I swapped front and rear tires after 1.5 years of driving and my plan is to drive them for at least another 1.5-2 years.

Given 97% while driving a (225/45 R17) on mostly country roads for 20,000 average miles
itted 4 to a 3 series BMW , 2006, drive a mixture of cross country in rural Ireland and city driving.
Fantastic in the wet and rain soaked motorway.
limited snow driving this winter, only 1 day, but i drove as normal almost.
lots of ice last winter and the car gripped as best as it could in the bends on ice, and i never lost control .
Bearing in mind RWD and ice are not a good combination.
Excellent in muck and grassy verges, and overall, very impressed.
Have covered over 30k Km and still look like new.

Ford (195/55 R15 H) on mostly town for 30 average miles
Bought two tires for the front after my Continental premium contact 2 tires needed replacing!
The Michelin crossclimates are the best tires I have driven in. Way better than the Continentals, better grip, good Road holding and very quiet! Haven't driven in the wet yet but I'm certain they will excel there as well.

Given 89% while driving a Vauxhall Astra 1.7 CDTI (205/55 R16) on a combination of roads for 30,000 average miles
Driven 30,000 miles on new set - 6mm tread on rear and tad over 4mm on front - Astra 1.7cdti. Reason for score of 8 on grip, road feedback and handling is I've never really pushed them cornering etc. However, i feel more confident using these, the wear is just as good as Michelin Energy I've had before. I live in East Anglia, so not lots of hills, bad roads, mainly flat. which must help on wear. For the price they are good value, will continue to buy.

Given 97% while driving a Saab Automobile 9 3 Vector Sport Sportwagon (150) (225/45 R17) on a combination of roads for 16,000 spirited miles
changing from Michelin pilot sports to these, I didn't expect much difference - but there was. It's almost like these tires were made especially for my car! sure footed, quiet and very long lasting too - the pilot sports were changed twice on the front of what is well known to be a heavy car in 20,000 miles whilst the front tires have done a shade under 16,000 miles and still have life in them yet. I will definitely be putting another set of these onto my car when the time comes.
for larger cars, these are a must - buy with confidence!

Given 100% while driving a Volvo V50 estate (205/50 R17 W) on a combination of roads for 24,784 average miles
Perfect, Nothing better, Outstanding. I work in remote areas and normally have always had a 4x4 jeep or car. I have had two of these on the front of a Volvo V50 and they amazingly good. So much so they have been replaced with the exact same again after trying Sunny 3830 Snowmaster which are horrific.

Given 89% while driving a Audi A6 Allroad 3.0 TDI (225/55 R17 W) on mostly motorways for 40,000 average miles
bought in spring 2015 and still working very well after more than 60.000 km. what is really outstanding is the wear resistance. to be sure I asked a specialist if they are still good and I had a confirmation from this tires seller. I think I'll change them in spring 2017, after 70000 km. I tried them in all conditions and I confirm the great behavior in dey and wed. Good on Snow also, but I did not test them in intense snow or Ice. Performance have decreased today but still acceptable. I think they are perfect for the region where I live, north east of Italy, where it's quite cold in winter but the snow is occasional in planes, but mountains are near!
