Michelin Latitude Cross

Put these on my freelander 2 always had goodyear wrangler all weather but these michelin have transformed the car, cornering much better feed back on steering much better and look great, used them on rocky roads forest tracks ect but not in mud yet would definitely buy again seem a great tyrr

Used commercially for towing and off road work, they grip very well on road, relatively well off road (but they're not bfg at equivalent).. they do seem a little soft, they wear quickly and seem to puncture easily. More of a road tire that can go off road well than an off road tire. I do like the tire, a good compromise

I wear this tire for the last 20 years on my gen3 3.5V6 and gen4 3.8V6 Mitsubishi Pajeros with only two 6-12 month intervals during which I tried the Maxxis M/T, thinking they were more appropriate for my off road adventures. Said that I never had any issues before going off road and without having anything more to expect from a tire going on road. Long story short I had the worst experience ever when driving on the wet without any significant off road gain plus a silly accident which costed me a huge by all means car damage and some serious rib fractures. I wouldn’t take in consideration the comparison between the Latitude Cross and the MT Maxxis as they come from a completely different perspective. But I haven’t tried any other tires so far. Anyway driving about 40-60.000 km/year between long distances on the highway, long distances off road and towing my RIB through any possible path for 20 years is because I still can’t find any concrete downside for my tires to take the risk of trying any other tire.

Been using this tire on two volvo XC70's over the last 10 years and have done probably 80k miles with them (3 sets). They are very sure footed in nearly all situations - the only thing they are not as good as cross climate2's (my XC60) is bump rebound mid bend (on pot holes)- the rear can skip slightly. Really good on gravel wet or dry - mud also good - snow: better than cross climate2 for braking and traction (UK has wet snow and slush) - tho not as good as a proper winter in these conditions.
Ive towed cars out of muddy fields with these tires - bit more difficult when worn down.
Good stability at motorway speeds - but they dont have the ultimate grip of the new all season tires - the design came out in 2009!! and hasn't been changed so pretty impressive .
As I use them on small roads with very rough edges and have to avoid tractors and lorries they are confidence inspiring that they won't damage easily.
Highway they are a bit noisy compared to the cross climate 2 and certainly not as fuel efficient. but for poor road surfaces and some light off roading they are really good with strong sidewalls. cannot get my size now so will have to either change wheels or goto another tire type.

I have had these Latitude Cross fitted on the rear for the past 10,000miles and on the front for the past 5,000miles. Replacing Bridgestone Dueller 'High Terrain' and also 'All Terrain' tires.

My 2019 2.4D Toyota Hilux is usually relatively loaded with tools and equipment giving the vehicle a gross weight of between 2,500kg and 3,000kg.

I predominantly use the vehicle for work travelling between different sites and working off road most days on the electricity network in rural areas. All my colleagues drive either Isuzu D-Max, Ford Rangers or Toyota Hilux's. As you can imagine, with the work that we do, we are often recovering vehicles out the mud. The majority of my colleagues favour the General Grabber which is adequate for off-road driving but really a very poor tire for driving on road, especially in the wet.

What I can in my experience of driving off-road frequently with the Michelin Latitude Cross is that I have only got stuck once which was due to driver error, a 8ton digger was require to rescue me, so it was quite stuck. However, I drive at obstacles such as steep vergers without care. I bounce up curbs at speed. I hit deep potholes without slowing down and I have pulled a stuck Uni-Mog out of a field (whilst appearing to set a smoke grenade off under the Hilux). I like this tire very much, it is strong and predictable, and provided it isn't a complete disaster in the snow I would choose to put it on again. A bonus is the extended wear and hopefully a lower environmental impact.

What would be good to see is Tire Reviews to carry out a UK based review of 'premium and popular' All-Terrain tires. Goodyear Wrangler, Continental Cross Contact, Michelin Latitude Cross, General Grabber, Cooper Discovery, Bridgestone Dueller are all very popular choices in the UK but no real impartial testing.

I had the opportunity to use the tires I have been using for 2 years on snowy, wet and off-road conditions. It is an ideal tire in terms of driving comfort, braking on different road types, and road holding.

Installed at the rear, really good tires on the road and off road! I was really impressed with the off road grip! Even at 2WD, on mud it handles really well! Buying a 2nd pair for the front in 2 weeks after a meh time with the Ovation Ecovision VI-286 A/T

Used on Hyundai Santa Fe for 6 months. Good throughout summer and autumn. Wear well and not noisey given tread. Works extremely well on wet and very wet grass which is why I got them. No real experience on snow but I think they will be much better than summer tires.

Fitted these to my Panda Cross 4x4 to improve off road use without ruining on road driving. It’s a good compromise. A bit less grippy than the full road tires fitted from factory (despite being 185, rather than the 175 they replaced). In the dry it still grips well and the handling is predictable and balanced although there’s a bit less feedback on the tarmac. In the wet it’s excellent, no discernible difference to the full on road tires. Off road it’s excellent, a big improvement on the miles of forest track, soft road and occasional full off road I need to drive. The car feels much more planted and secure in these conditions. I’ve yet to encounter snow and it’s not 3MPSF rated but the presence of a number if sipes give me confidence it will work in the occasional snow we encounter. Ride quality is an improvement, possibly helped by the slightly taller sidewall (65% of 185 plays 65% of 175) and comfort is great. No appreciable noise difference to the original road tires. Wear - we will have to see.

A really good switch that suits the car for my driving mix.

I have found these tires to be very predictable in both wet and dry. When pushed hard the weight of the PHEV and the high profile of the tire contribute to the car understeering in both wet and dry conditions. I find these tire quite comfortable. In winter I drive up windy mountain roads to the snow. On snow these have been the best cornering and breaking SUV tires I've ever had. I can't comment regarding ice as I have minimal time in those conditions. They are predictably noisier than a road tire but the only time it is really noticeable is when speaking hands free on the phone. I'm on my second set and will buy again if I don't go to a winter specific tire next time. I travelled about 45,000km on my last set and I'm experiencing a similar wear rate this time. Apart from enhanced grip in mud and snow I bought these tires due to the robust side walls to use on dirt roads and tracks, they have not let me down and have reduced my anxiety of tire damage when travelling in out of the way places without a spare.

The tires have excellent wet weather grip on hot mix up and down hills. on road / gravel road performance is good for SUV / 4x4 vehicle. With the grip available the wear isn't that good. If you are only doing 10 -15k km's per year or two, worth the money.

Put them on about 10 years ago as the Bridgestone Dueller wore out of excessive dryness (yes indeed) in only a few years of use and disappointed badly overall. Up until now I have thrown the book at these Michelins; off roading, trailer pulling, snow drifting, beach donuts and still going out is never limited with these. Most surprisingly is the lack of thread wear, the side wall dryness and cracking is making these tires in need of replacement sooner, especially on the front, and that is the only real negative thing I can say about these. Front lasted 6 years Rears lasting 10 years and still looking ok

I use them on fire trails and rocky roads so far so good. No punctures, good grip. On hightway speeds they are quiet and feel almost as good as the continental ecocontact5 that came from factory. I see some sipes for snow but I did not have the oppurtunity to test them on snow yet.

Replaced the 15 Yr old budget AT tires on my 90 with these 3 years ago. Really disappointed with these Michelins. They are only an improvement in terms of tire noise (quieter). In all other respects the same as the 15yr old Power guards, apart from body roll, which is sadly increased. Expected much much more from a premium new tire.

After 400 Km (250 miles) and 2 weeks of use, I had the first puncture. It was caused by a 9mm diameter wood stick on the inside tread limit. These tires are weak and It will be hard to trust them.
