MICHELIN CrossClimate 3 Sport

Since theses tyres were fitted the car (Porsche Macan) seems smoother and easier to drive. Very happy!

Très bon comportement, sur route sèche ou route humide , agréablement surpris . Bravo MICHELIN .

Bon adhérence à la pluie

The initial reduction in efficiency was annoying considering only a one grade difference between these and the OEM tyres. After a few thousand miles efficiency of these tyres has improved but is still worse than OEM, so they will need to last considerably longer to make the trade off worth while.

I wanted to wait until we actually had some rain before reviewing. My car (A3 8v Convertible) came with worn summer tyres and the tracking was out so had to get them done. I’d previously had cross climate 2’s on my old car and they were really good for my commute so thought I’d give the 3’s a go. In the dry they don’t feel so connected but more than adequate. However in the rain they’re a little too good and you have to double check how fast you’re going as they are PLANTED. I commute 70 miles a day on mixed country lanes/b roads & the A38. Where previous tyres have put my heart in my mouth in the wet approaching areas like Ivybridge where water pools/flows down gradients these tyres barely flinched. They do fill you with a lot of confidence and as we approach winter I wanted long lasting, confidence inspiring tyres which is exactly what they are. Stopping in heavy rain is also not an issue. My one gripe is MPG as I’ve dropped from an average of 55 to 45/50mpg but yes 100% recommend.
