Michelin CrossClimate2 wear concerns

This^^^^^^^. I was lucky to get 20,000 on Michelin Energy Savers in city driving. Replaced with Defender 2's Initial impression. The Defender 2's track well and are quieter and smoother up to about 45. Jolting if the pothole is deep. The Defender 2's lose about 5% mpg city and 10% highway vs. the Energy Savers. 17 Camry. .02
Michelin Energy Savers are horrible. I got 38,000 on a set. From my experiences, LRR tires aren't really good at anything.

Yep. 3 of us got similar results. Some posters driving highway miles have achieved OK numbers. I noticed the utog numbers are dramatically different ,about 400 vs. 800. The Savers are just softer and seem not to take well to the short trip turning and scrubbing of city driving.

I would say that I had more highway miles on mine. The traction was pretty bad. In fact, they were horrible in the rain. I think most LRR tires have poor wet weather traction.
