Anyone running Michelin Cross Climate 2 tires?
I put these on my wife’s E450 Wagon and am surprised as to how smooth & quiet they are with the aggressive tread pattern. Anyone have them on an S Class?
I'm glad to hear you like those. I have always avoided them because they "look" loud. Don't know that I would put them on my S580 or your i7 but I would try them on my wife's Pacifica.
I have those and nokian wrg4 on all 6 suvs. They are the perfect 365 metro area northeast tire and u cld totally go skiing with them in Vermont if you needed to.
didn’t realize they made them in s580 sizes but i went with contis on my 20 in s580 wheels.

They not only make them, it’s the ONLY Michelin Costco recommends for the S580 with 19’s. AND, a 60K mileage warranty.

they come stock on the 25' GLE350 and 450 from MB. I have had them on several other SUV and love them. I wish the had them for my S580 20" staggered setup
I have a set in 275/50R20 on my X7 M50i, and am satisfied with their performance on a variety of wet and dry pavement surfaces. Haven't tried them in snow, but others report exceptional traction compared to non-3MPSF rated all season tires. Treadwear is decent -- down 1/32 after 5,000 miles.

I’m pretty sure that’s not true. I have seen Primacy Tour on those vehicles at the dealer but never The CC2

The green valve caps are the giveaway: COSTCO! They fill the tires with nitrogen, which is what the green caps signify. Most likely, with even only 600 miles on it, the vehicle has a history. Possibly bought, the owner swapped tires, still not happy and immediately traded. It happens.

What would worry me is that tires with this sort of tread can be quiet when new, but get noisier fast. The sound described is another clue; you get that with some ATs and M&Ss, and that also usually points to noise increasing over time.
I've not had these, so I can't say I know, but I would not buy them for a sedan. I'm sure of that.
