Michelin CrossClimate 2 vs Vredestein Quatrac — im Vergleich

“Review of Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires. I recently purchased Michelin CrossClimate 2 tires for my wife’s 2018 CRV EX-L FWD and I have to say they are pretty stellar. Thus far we have put at least 2000 miles on them to include a 14 hour road trip. Excellent traction on wet roads and far superior to the Goodyear Assurance we had before. We have driven through a couple significant downpours and these tires have confidence on wet roads. As for the alleged noise complaints, I think they’re very quiet compared to the old tires. Rolling resistance/ MPG; no changes and I would have happily sacrificed a couple MPG for good traction in FWD vehicle. As for snow, I can’t say and we live in Texas anyway. Price; I spent about $1000 total for four tires and installs at Costco. That was with tax. Overall, I highly recommend these tires thus far.”

“PSA: Michelin CrossClimate 2 - They make noise. Recently purchased Michelin Cross Climate 2s for my MachE from Costco. I received a fairly decent price (1,000 for 4) vs local competitors (1,400 for 4). I've seen a lot of people say how great they are, and I thought I'd give them a shot. They look nice. They definitely give it a more 'off-road' look. They also come with a 65,000 mile warranty which they said applied to EVs as well, which is nice as well. They feel great driving. I appreciate their excellent traction and feel secure on turns. I haven't been able to test them on snow yet, but they perform well on wet roads. That being said. They definitely make noise. They make a little at lower, city speeds (~35 mph). They also make a really weird noise at highway speeds (~70 mph+). Neither is so loud or annoying that a little radio can't cover up the sound. Overall, I am very pleased with the tire and the price I received. However, be warned, they do make noise. EDIT: I originally posted this is the Ford Mustang MachE forum and forgot to say that I put them on my MachE. The MachE, being an EV, may be why the noise is more noticeable for me versus others.

“Michelin CrossClimate 2 after 31.000 kilometers I have those Michelin CrossClimate 2 (EU version, made in Spain) for 26 months now and 31.000 kilometers on a heavy Mercedes EQE, the rears are still good but the front tyres are starting to give up on the shoulders. Usual tyre pressure is 2.8 bars, there is still some good tread left on the middle of the tyre. Steering feeling on the snow is also not as good as it used to be. Overall very happy with those tyres, I’ll have to decide between the Continental AllSeasonContact 2 or the CrossClimate 3 Sport (sadly the 3 isn’t available in 255/45 R19) to replace them this year. We have the Pirelli Scorpion SF3 on our second car. Given the car and my usage, I give priority to snow braking, rolling resistance, silence and longevity. I lost a bit of range, comfort and steering engagement when I swapped the factory Bridgestone Turanza T005 for the CrossClimate 2, but in general nothing to call-out.”

“Vredestein Quatrac Pro+s are excellent These tires are phenomenal. I have them on my 2019 Mazda3 and replaced my last set of Continental DWSs. Those were great tires, but I wanted something a bit better for the winter on this replacement, and I was hoping for something a bit quieter for road trips as well. I went with Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ and these are *noticeably* quieter than the DWSs, and they ride better as well. I'm a huge fan so far. Read more”

“Vredestein Quatrac Pro Tire Review Bought these tires for my Mazda 3 after one of my OEM Bridgestone EL440’s got pregnant(sidewall bulge), and I plugged a puncture in the other one. Decided to just replace the tires completely. So far I’m happy with them. Pros: Severe snow rating so they are legally snow tires in my state(for mountain passes and stuff), and I’m guessing the snow traction is way better. They are still all season tires though. Seems to be a softer ride overall even on the stock 18” side. XL sidewall strength, vs the stock tires being standard. Should help with those sidewall issues. They seem fairly quiet as far as noise. $150 rebate in addition to being fairly cheap Cons: These are definitely not for those people who want sporty handling, they don’t really feel like a sport tire, and are more of a touring road tire. I’ve heard the treadwear isn’t the best(makes sense with the snow rating)”

“Vredestein Quatrac Pro+ shoulders ‘chunking up’ already Earlier this year (around February) I got a brand new full set of Quatrac Pro+ tyres for my BMW 325i. Since then the car has done around 3,500 miles. I’ve just had all the wheels off whilst doing some work on the car and the front tyres are chunking up on both shoulders, the rears are fine. (Pictures of front right attached, but they both look like this). It’s a RWD car, the pressures are as per factory, the car isn’t driven hard at all, the tracking is fine, I’m in the UK (so no extreme temperatures). Surely this can’t be right? Read more”
