Do Premium Tyres Really Make a Difference? I Tested Michelin CrossClimate 2s
The all-season Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres enhance braking and handling on wet and wintry roads, offering a safer alternative to winter tyres without seasonal changes, the owner said.
- Recently, Gareth fitted Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres to his second-hand Mitsubishi Outlander and immediately noticed a marked improvement in handling and control.
- Gareth said he opted for CrossClimate 2s because cheap tyres felt unsafe, removing the unknown Chinese set and avoiding winter tyres due to faster wear and seasonal swaps.
- The CrossClimate 2s use a directional tread that channels water out, dispersing puddles and reducing steering 'tug' on standing water with little slip on wet or icy patches.
- The author says, `improved braking is vastly better than the old set, and he prioritised safety over a £600 versus £200 cost comparison for Michelin CrossClimate 2 tyres.`
- Long-Term durability is uncertain despite positive early reports, though consumer review sites suggest good mileage and Gareth's two-tonne Mitsubishi Outlander will be monitored over the next few years.
