I was told by a Michelin rep that they will launch the Crossclimate 2 in the stock 19” size (255/45-19) on April 1, 2022. Induction folks are still out of luck though.

The 255/45R20s fit great, and actually look better, and have more sidewall for protection. I'm running those now an they're perfect on my MYP.I was told by a Michelin rep that they will launch the Crossclimate 2 in the stock 19” size (255/45-19) on April 1, 2022.

Another thing to consider is the compound material of the tire. They should perform better in cold temp over non winter rated all seasons.

That’s great! Would you be able to share which contact method you used to get an answer from Michelin about this? I’ve not had luck with various attempts to reach them.

I just went to their website and to “help and support” and then “contact us”. Send them an email.
I put a set of CrossClimate 2 on our Chevy Volt. The result was a 20% or more range reduction and much more rolling resistance.
Smooth, quiet and good handling tire, but a real efficiency killer for us.
I try to exploit 0 kW coasting for maximum range, and the crossclimates drag down momentum quickly.

Wow, that's sounds extreme, perhaps the rolling resistance of the CrossClimate 2 is worse than my CrossClimate+.
If you have moment, I'd be curious to know:
a) what time of year did you see this impact?
b) was it still this large after around 1,000 miles of use?
c) what PSI does your Volt recommend?
FYI, found this nice breakdown of contributors to EV efficiency:

Where the Energy Goes: Electric Cars
EVs are 60% to 73% efficient, depending upon drive cycle (77% to 100% efficient if the energy recaptured from regenerative braking is counted).

OK, tried that method again yesterday, I'll keep an eye out for a response. Thank you for the encouragement!
Hey,
Look what I found:
255/45R19 CC2 104V XL
Coming soon: April 2022

I presently have the OEM Continental 255/45R19 on my MYLR Gemini's and the ride is harsh. A taller sidewall should help a little so I'm looking to upgrade to the CC2 255/55R19 at my upcoming new tire purchase. I know that the 29.2" is a tad taller than the recommended 29". But does anyone have a CC2 255/55R19 on their vehicle who can comment? Or is 55R19 just too tall on the MYLR?
From the size poll (here in Model Y Driving Dynamics) about half the respondents agree that 45R19 is harsh. That's why I'm looking for something with a taller sidewall.
Thanks,
Scott

I've used dws 06 on a different car (RX-8) and have been pretty happy with them. I've thought about them for the Y, though I'm on 19" wheels.
