I’ve had the Weather ready on my Highlander for 6 years and over 33000 miles. Passed PA inspection again. Quiet comfortable ride in all weather situations ( Erie Pa.) Will buy again and strongly recommend.
Just purchased a set of Cross Climate 2. I only have about 600 miles on the tires. So far very happy with them. As for noise, I think they are great. Very quiet, much better than the OEM tires on the car. The ride is a bit stiffer over some surfaces, but also better damped. Not objectionable at all. Dry road handling is great, not much driving yet in rain or snow.
Hey Ed, thanks for sharing your review. Can you please let me know which sizes were you running? (and if you can also let me know the car, I can help you with your next tire purchase also)
@@comparethetire Tire size is 205-55-16. The ones I purchased were speed rated H. As I said, I just got these tires. Hopefully will be several years before I purchase another set.
Thank you! I’m Glad to hear this! I just ordered them for my Mazda CX5. Primarily because I live in Florida with heavy daily rains during rainy season…also moving to TN mountain area next year where I’ll have to deal with snow.
Good comparison! I owe instead of the cross climate said they are amazing tires in the wet and snow. But they definitely give me a hit of 3 to 4 miles per per gallon in fuel economy.
I had crossclimate on 13 Rav4 and Weatherready on 13 CRV. I really hated the noise on Michelin and I also felt every tire groove when driving, goodyear on CRV is like normal all season smooth and quiet, you say Michelin quieter What!!? Not in my experience. I would compare Michelin crossclimate similar experience to my all terrain tire Bridgestone something on Acura MDX, not really best chose by me, almost feels like a wheel bearing is worn out.
Well you must have gotten the size without the comfort tech (which has a cushioning layer above cap plies). It's missing in a few sizes for the sake of better traction and fuel economy (as it reduces the overall tire weight).
It's funny, I hear a lot about how quiet the Cross Climate is. But I almost returned them for how noisy they are, I was shocked. I'm not kidding I think they're the loudest tire I've ever had ( not counting some E rated truck tires) I have them on a Lexus RX 350 F sport that's very quiet, maybe that's why I hear the the drowning sound. Honestly if they want so highly rated I'd get rid of them. Very disappointed
Actually a lot of the sizes used to have a cushioning layer above their cap plies which keeps the noise down They removed it to lower the weight in order to improve fuel economy

Thanks for sharing. What do you think of Weatherready 2 BTW?

Alright. Well I'll be here. Please consider going through my other videos and give feedback if possible.
I have the Cross Climate 2 tires, completely satisfied with their performance.
Yes they offer pretty decent one particularly when it comes to braking.
Good review. We have CrossClimate 2 tires and love the performance in wet, dry, and snow.
Thanks for sharing man.
Same. In the rain they act as paddles and just sling water out. We took them on a 5000 mile road trip through the Rocky’s and dang they were great.

Yes fuel economy is not it’s one of the strongest suits.
Would you be able to revisit this review with the new Goodyear WeatherReady 2 tires?
We are planning to publish the review of it where we compare it with bunch of tires in its league.
@@comparethetireany updates on this?
You should have went up agianst the Goodyear WeatherReady 2 tires
Yes its on our list. Stay tuned for that!
I wonder how the Michelins tires 🛞 do with my 2015 Toyota Avalon touring sport edition
They are okay. Solid traction, but comfort wise they are just fine ( Ive tired them on Avalon)
The Goodyear Assurance WeatherReady on my Honda Pilot has the loudest road noise I have ever experienced, and I am partially deaf.
I know what you mean, but yes things are better with WeatherReady 2.

@@comparethetire Do you know which sizes are affected? I am looking at 255/65 r18 111h tires.
I think its mentioned on the sidewalls.
Lookin' to get 4 news for my 5000 pound SUV in 255/60-65/18 ,, would love to know if they carry the Comfort Tech in this size..🤘👍
October 2024 I understand in Germany for winter months M and S tyres are no longer legal, they must have the snowflake on them.
Yes they must have 3pmsfr
So you need an all weather tire, instead of all season
@@comparethetire thanks.
