Product description & features

The Michelin CrossClimate is an all-season tyre that has a summer tyre base with some winter elements. The tyre features 3PMSF snow certification with a directional V-shaped tread with winter snow traction. The tread has V-shaped grooves that are paired with a V-shaped block pattern that helps push water/snow/slush away. The winter block pattern is also used with 3D sipes which are self-locking in winter use, providing support to the tread on summer/ dry roads.

The CrossClimate is advertised as the first summer/ 3PMSF snow certified tyre by Michelin on its launch in 2015. Certified summer/ winter traction/certification means that the tyre has been tested and certified to meet the requirements of summer/winter use. The XL models feature a summer block design but with a stronger casing to support the increased load. The original model was replaced with the CrossClimate+ in 2017. Tyres.co.uk has a selection of Michelin CrossClimate.

Highlights

  • All-season summer and winter design
  • Three-peak snowflake certification
  • V-shaped tread and grooves

These tyres handle flooding and wet weather exceptionally well. In terms of short icy weather spells, they've also done well. However, I have yet to test them in prolonged cold or icy weather.

Tyre review for Michelin CrossClimate 225/55R18 102V XL
Since they were fitted two weeks ago, I've not been able to test these tyres in wet or snowy conditions as it has been dry the whole time. I can't say I feel much difference when driving on the motorway, but that is probably my Ford Ka, which always feels like a go-kart in cross winds, regardless of the tyres. Still, they've been reasonably priced and should last a good while considering the amount I drive. I'm looking forward to the colder months to see how they perform in the rain and snow.

The steering feels heavier and less precise than with my last summer tyres, the Michelin's, when the road is dry. However, when it rains, steering feels more responsive and lighter. The tyres have great grip in dry and wet conditions. A little more road noise can be heard but it is not that distracting. Tyre wear is something that I can comment on as it is still early.

Prioritising safety, I bought these for my daughter's small Seat Mii. They were bound to manage rain and puddles better than the old Continental SportContacts they replaced.
