I had heard about Michelin a lot from my friends, and based on their advice, I bought a new set last month. I feel they are fine for snow but not for icy conditions in Edmonton or Alberta, especially when your car is not an SUV or all-wheel drive. So, I will not recommend this set of tires for small cars.

We didn't have enough snow this winter to know how well these perform as winter tires, but they met one of my biggest requirements - they are quiet! I bought the EV rated version and on my very quiet Mustang Mach E they are as quiet as the original all seasons.

HAD THESE TIRES FOR 6 YEARS ON OUR NISSAN ROGUE SPORT, EXCELLENT GRIP AND WEAR.TREAD LIFE. TYPICALLY USED IN THE WINTER FOR 10-15KM IN ALBERTA, CANADA WEATHER. ON AN 18" RIM THE 255/65/R18 ARE VERY QUIET AND COMFORTABLE. RECENTLY BOUGHT THEM AGAIN, HOWEVER, I AM CURIOUS HOW MUCH BETTER STUDDED VERSIONS WOULD BE.

I bought this type of Michelin X-ice snow for my wife's nissan rogue and had nothing but success with them. My wife had the confidence to drive in the winter without worrying about pothole damage, slipping, or getting stuck. A solid well built tire. I then bought a set for my C300 and they drive very well. Solid and great grip on wet, cold, and snow-covered roads. The tires for my c300 were pricey, but worth it as they are a quality tire that holds up to wear.

I didn't drive on these much yet, and haven't been out in snow with them yet either, but from what I did drive on these tires, they are SUPER QUIET and ride excellently! Aggressive-tread snow tires are notoriously LOUD. These aren't. I definitely lean towards "quiet comfort" when it comes to snow tires, since 90%-95% of the time I'm driving on them, the roads are clear or only just wet. Yes, a snow tire's true function is getting much better grip in slippery conditions (vs. a standard all-season tire). This tire's tread pattern appears to optimize icey-road grip performance more than deep snow grip, which I'm fine with. Tire grip in snow usually isn't the issue. The most difficult grip conditions are icey roads, which was the condition I was attempting to optimize with this tire purchase. With the amount of tread and siping maximized with this tire design, looks like I'll have that. I purchased a prior model X-Ice snow tire 8 years ago and have had very good ice grip with those tires. I am expecting more of the same (and even slightly better) with these newer tires!

I have purchased this brand of snow tires for the past twelve years for all of my automobiles. I believe this is my fifth set. Snow tires are so important for winter driving. Yes expensive, but really how much does an accident cost? Everyone spends so much money on 4X4s or AWD, but getting stuck does not usually cause an accident, not being able to stop does cause the accident. People would be money ahead to invest in snow tires. Excellent tires/product.

I purchased a set of X ice snow about a month Complaint is that there is a lot of lateral movement/sway in quick response It seems as to the point of being dangerous and unstable at high speeds. As far as Strait lines stability in very bad weather, the tires do function as advertised. I have also tried increasing tire pressure by 3 pounds of pressure all around and no successful results.

We purchased these tires and they work great in snow storms, better than most on black ice and keep us clinging to the roads throughout the months of bad weather we experience. We will continue to purchase these tires as long as we face winter driving!

My first exposure to Michelin tires was over 50 years ago. My Dad had an older Chrysler that used to float over the road. Typical for the period. He purchased a set of Michelin tires for the car. These tires completely changed the car. The ride immediately became significantly smoother and quieter. Any road imperfections seemed to disappear. The steering response/handling became sharper and more precise. For these reasons, every car and truck I have owned since has worn a set of Michelin tires. I also appreciate the longevity and extended wear of the tires.

I bought it one week ago and replaced Dunlop Winter Maxx on my WRX manual. They are comfortable as all Michelin tires but not suitable for performance cars such as WRX. The steering and braking are so vague, I cannot feel the feedback from the road. The response when I steer has a significant lag that let me feel like driving a boat. If they are on SUVs they would be fine.
