I am a long-term Michelin fan. When I buy tires for my cars, I always buy Michelin. I had to replace the Michelin X-Ice 3 winter tires on my 2016 Mercedes E400 wagon. (I love the X-Ice 3 and their predecessors -- ran them on all of our cars in winter.) Chose the X-Ice Snow as the replacements because they are the natural successor to X-Ice 3. Big mistake! The X-Ice Snow were unstable at speeds over 70 km/h -- even the smallest movement in the steering wheel resulted in a fear-inducing wobble. It was like the car was rolling its ankle. No confidence. We use this car to drive to Lake Louise to ski every weekend -- about 400 km return. After one trip, I had it. I had the X-Ice Snow removed and replaced with Michelin Pilot Alpin. After that, no issues. AVOID THE X-ICE SNOW.

I have put these snows on all my vehicles and recommended them to friends for over 15 years. I previously used Nokia, but these are better. As the name suggests, they are optimized for ice, slush, and moderate snow. So for the average urban dweller, they are outstanding. I notice little difference between these and my summer tires. Winter doesn't bother them. The only caveat is if you live in the snow belt: there are better choices for deep snow.

I bought 4 Michelin X-ice snow SUV tires. For the price I paid, I think Michelin could make the tire with a deeper tread than just the 8mm they provide. I find this tire does not have enough bite in deep snow for winter driving. Other winter tires provide a tread depth of 14mm. This allows for a superior bite when driving in deep snow.

Handles snow and slush with incredible ease. I traveled on some nasty roads here in Michigan recently and never worried for my safety or had issues with traction. It was actually kind of fun… Tires are pretty quiet too even on dry roads, which is a nice bonus. However, ice is still ice and there is only so much a tire can do. They certainly have more traction on ice than all-seasons, but the difference isn’t as noticeable.

The Michelin X-Ice Snow tire performs great on my 2021 Ford Explorer. These tires handle both the slushy and icy roads well and I feel confident driving in most any winter condition here in Nova Scotia. These tires grip well, aren't noisy, and are wearing well.

I have Michelin X-Ice snow tires for my RAV4, they are supposed to be the best or at least one of the best and yet I still find that I have mediocre traction on snow and ice (slide around a bit on snowy roads, have to nearly crawl around circular on-ramps)

Bought these tires in 2020 and have used them through now a second winter ( albeit just starting) but I must say what really stands out is the performance on ice. When the season starts, I like to come to a complete stop and start to see "how bad it is out there" and compared to my previous brand of tires, the stopping power and take off has been the best so far. They produce very little noise when on pavement and handle very well in dry conditions including wet.

We are on our 2nd set of winter tires on both vehicles and will always buy Michelin tires winter and summer. The last set of winters we bought lasted 10 seasons and we’re amazing with lots of grip up to the last kilometre and we drive a lot. Bought new ones last year for the truck and we were the only ones to get out of our street when there was 50 cm of snow.

I purchased the Michelin Ice snow tires last fall and used them through the winter driving Period. I mounted them on my SUV and found the ice tezction simply fantastic for control and breaking. The snow driving was excellent as well. I highly recommend this tire.

I run Michelin X-Ice Snow tires all year round. They are quiet and work good on our rain soaked roads as well as in snow. They last in excess of 70,000 km and I never have a flat tire. I run only Michelin tires on all our vehicles. Great tires that take very little balance weight.
