Review on MICHELIN Latitude Cross 235/60 R16 104H summer by Andrey Miltchov Petk ᠌
The goods are normal, money is not wasted!
Over 10 thousand km, the wear is very small, even the antennae on the tread have not yet been completely erased. I think 70-80 thousand pass if it goes like this. I am 100% satisfied with the choice for my requirements (driving along the highway for long distances + dirt roads and other non-extreme off-road areas in search of fishing spots). In short, it is excellent on the highway and does not give up on the country road. As a feature, I can note, in my opinion, too early a screech in tight corners and under heavy braking. This does not affect the braking distance and cornering stability, so I don’t consider it a disadvantage, and I don’t often have such situations. I practically don’t use it in winter, only at the beginning of the snow season to wait out the boom in tire shops, and then I slowly change my shoes.
- Quiet, on the track just fine, no worse than other clean highways from Michelin at sane speeds. It feels great on primers (up to 110 km/h, I didn’t drive faster), the moment of stalling into a skid is predictable and very smooth, easily corrected by the steering wheel (Subaru Outback). Good for light and medium off-road (again, compared to the highway). Excellent behavior on wet roads, puddles - I don’t remember about hydroplaning on it in any downpour (even my winter tires lose to it in this). For a long time you can not switch to "winter". On the first snow it feels great, it slows down slightly worse than on asphalt.
- Weight, heavy, and in connection with this, the suspension works differently, increased unsprung masses are felt, and in connection with this, comfort on poor-quality asphalt suffers. In fact, it is more pleasant to ride on a rolled primer than on unimportant asphalt with patches and joints.
