Michelin Latitude Cross..

[Popthetop]

Has anybody fitted Michelin Latitude Cross tyres? About to replace the factory fit Dunlop Sportmaxx, (which undoubtedly are great on a track but not a muddy campsite) with something a bit more appropriate for a camper van. Seem to have good reviews, wondered if anybody on here has any recent feedback? Cheers, Lee.

I have them in 235/55/17 103xl, very impressed so far.

We have had them in 225/70/16 for two summers, now. We crossed the Icelandic Highlands 3 times with them without an issue. They will go on for their third season this month. Then, after approx. 30,000 km of hard work, they will most likely need to be replaced. We had hoped they would last somewhat longer.

Thanks for the reply. Are you using these all year round?

Yes

I’m using them all year round and think they’re really good. I find them more of a summer / harder compound tyre so not as good as an all season tyre in the very cold but much better when warm and dry. Considering the more aggressive tread pattern they are remarkably quiet too.

Yes, they are real summer tyres. That is also how we use them.

Thanks all for your replies. The summer rating is the only thing I’m unsure about, there’s a chance we’ll go skiing next year, so it may be more appropriate to look at 3PMSF tyres..

Does the 235/55 r17 spare fit underneath (deflated)?
