I swapped out my OEM Continental EcoContact 6s for these on my Volvo XC60 and boy, what a difference! The Michelins are so much quieter and more comfortable... it's like driving a different car. I used to hear every bump and crack on the road, but now, it's almost silent. The fuel economy didn't take much of a hit either, just a slight dip on longer trips, but nothing major. Haven't had the chance to fully test them in winter yet, but if they're anything like the non-SUV CrossClimates we have on our other car, they should handle the frosty Devon lanes with no problem. Definitely a great buy!

Put these on my VW Jetta 1.4 TSI, thinking they'd be a good all-around tire. Initially, they were great, but after about two years and 40k km, the wet grip just vanished. It was fine at first, but then it started feeling really dangerous in the rain. I used to have Michelin CrossClimate and CrossClimate Plus before these, and they were way better. This model just doesn't hold up in wet conditions after a while. I had to switch to Pirelli SF3 XL, and I’m hoping they’ll perform better over time. Really disappointed with how these turned out, especially given the price.

I fitted these on my VW Tiguan 2.0L SEL DSG 4motion, aiming for a good all-season performance. During summer, they handled predictably with decent grip, although not as sharp as my previous summer tires. However, they made up for it by being softer, which improved ride comfort.
Comments
They're reasonably quiet, maybe a slight low-pitched noise, but not intrusive. Recently, we had a 10cm snowfall, and these tires performed admirably, providing good traction while other cars struggled. They're not cheap, but the performance justifies the price. Great comfort in summer and excellent in snow. I'll definitely consider buying these again.
