Michelin CrossClimate2 All-Season 235/65R18 106H Tire

The Michelin CrossClimate 2 is a performance, all weather tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs. Michelin offers a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty with this tire model. The tire promotes great all weather traction. The stronger, adaptive thermal compound and the directional tread design upgrade the dry, wet, and winter weather traction. The durable compound maintains the flexibility of its rubber elements at all times. The tread design’s siping placement and surface contact increase the traction throughout the year with extra biting edges. This combination also ensures the tire’s exceptional winter traction, earning the tire its severe winter weather designation. The angled lateral grooves help prevent hydroplaning in wet weather conditions. The directional pattern with the optimal surface contact area increases the controllability. The tread enables the tire to improve the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. The 3D SipeLock technology and the V Ramp chamfers work together to generate friction at the moment of braking, significantly shortening the braking distance. The thermal adaptive tread also helps with the braking power. On the other hand, the shoulder block pattern enhances the cornering ability. They provide additional biting edges to increase the cornering and maneuvering ability and power. This combination ensures a safer handling, improving the driver’s control over the vehicle throughout the performance. High speed performance is also improved with this model. The stronger structure and the durable compound boost the high speed drive. The two-ply polyester casing and the supporting two steel belts maintain the ideal tire shape as well. The tread design allows the tire to improve the high speed durability, as the tire does not deform under the high speed pressure. The stronger adaptive thermal compound prevents heat build-up across the tread area, further improving the performing ability. As a result, the tire greatly improves the high speed durability at all times. The CrossClimate 2 improves the comfort levels. The special PIANO Noise Reduction Tuning technology allows the tire to reduce the road noise heard. This tread negates the sound waves generated while the tires are in motion, minimizing the road and tread pattern noise reaching the vehicle’s cabin. As road disturbances do not ruin the passengers’ driving enjoyment, offering a quiet driving experience. All weather tires receive the three mountain peak and snowflake (3PMS) symbol for their exceptional winter weather performance. They are all season tires with extra winter weather grip, in order to guarantee safer year-round durability. This ensures their true and secure driving ability throughout the year.
