Michelin Agilis 3 vs Michelin Agilis CrossClimate — Compared

“Yup. I currently have CrossClimate Load E on the front, and CrossClimate C-type on the rear. The van has never had a better ride. (Note to readers who are less familiar with different Interstate model years - mine is not a dually. I only have two tires to carry the butt-heavy rear, so the load rating consideration takes on an outsized importance). Price is the same, to within about ten bucks. C-type is not more expensive. The published disadvantage is a stiffer ride. But the ride is harsh anyway - we have discussed that ad nauseam on this forum. I don’t find that to be a deal-breaker for a tire with a larger load-carrying capacity. Especially given the still-unexplained blow-out I had with the lower-capacity tire. Back in the Catastrophic blowout thread, I mentioned that the C-type CrossClimate is not advertised. I had to have a Discount Tire CSR point me to their page for it. There’s a screengrab of it on that thread.”

“We have the Agilis cross climates on our C-class 3.5t MH and have been utterly delighted with them. They’re quiet, really grippy and give a great ride. What’s not to like?”

“Looking to replace my summer tires for my work van. I carry about 2,000 lbs of cargo and have another set of wheels&tires for snow. These would just be for pavement/highway use. Im looking for quiet ride and longevity. Factory size is LT225/75R16 which id like to stick to. Ive worn out some Michelin Agilis Cross Climate in about 60,000 miles. It looks like Michelin now calls the Agilis Cross Climate which i currently have the Cross Climate2. Looking for something similar. The Michelins are spendy, wondering if ill be happy with something different. Was looking at Firestone Transforce as a possibility. Open to any ideas and the collective experience of those here.”
