Yes but will not fit a Cali unless its lifted , I think it has to be 225/60r17 before you can make a normal turn

I presume you have 17" wheels?Good Morning all
Need to replace my all weather tyres and thinking Michelin Cross Climate pasted this from internet. I am driving in uk and Europe and snow occasionally. I have decided on the Michelins
Question is which tyre ? I am running a 2020 Ocean 6.1.
Yes, Michelin CrossClimate tires are suitable for a VW California Ocean
, with specific models like the CrossClimate 2, CrossClimate 3, or Agilis CrossClimate being popular choices, often in a 235/55 R17 XL size. These all-season tires offer a good balance of wet and dry grip, snow traction, and longevity for year-round use, but ensure you select the correct load rating for your vehicle.
Michelin CrossClimate options for VW California
- Michelin CrossClimate 2: A highly-regarded all-season tire that provides improved safety in various weather conditions and good performance in rain, snow, and dry conditions.
- Michelin CrossClimate 3: The latest version, it offers improvements in both wet and snow performance over the CrossClimate 2, with better traction and braking in snow, according to some testing.
- Michelin Agilis CrossClimate: Specifically designed for commercial and heavier vehicles, this tire offers high load ratings and durability, making it a suitable choice for the VW California, which is a heavier vehicle.
Important considerations
Thank you
- Load Rating: The VW California is a heavy vehicle, so it's critical to choose tires with the correct load rating (often marked "XL" for extra load) to ensure safety and proper vehicle performance.
HiI presume you have 17" wheels?
Personal preference would be Crossclimate 3, 235/55 with a minimum Load Rating of 103 and minimum speed rating of H.
