LATITUDE CROSS

<p>Excellent tyres best I have had on my freelander 2</p>

Been using this tyre 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 tyres - bit more difficult when worn down.
Good stability at motorway speeds - but they dont have the ultimate grip of the new all season tyres - 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 tyre type.

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 tyre that can go off road well than an off road tyre. I do like the tyre, a good compromise

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

I wear this tyre 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 tyre 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 tyres 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 tyres to take the risk of trying any other tyre.
