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 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.

Recently had to purchase new winter tires to drive through the mountains (by-law). I’ve never heard of Michelin X-Ice Snow and I was expecting myself to purchase X-Ice3 set. I searched up the tires the parts and service at Honda told me they had chosen to put on my Odyssey and I found out it was their latest generation X-Ice tire. It felt so good driving through the mountains! I live in a very snowy and icy city and I felt like I was driving on dry roads, it’s actually absurd. I’m confident in these tires after driving on them for a month now.

Used Michelin tires for almost 13 years in 4 different vehicles . Drive long distance on highways in winter . Never failed on me. Last year due to mostly working from home, though I had winter tires whole season but could drive hardly 2K against 10K in a normal work year. Happy customer

My research showed that Michelin X-Ice were the best winter tires available. I drive a lot and it is important. I was surprised to see that the tread on the X-Ice tires was not so aggressive, as in the old days of "snow tires". The difference is in the rubber and design. Though they look nearly like all season tires they are fantastic in snow and ice and get me through anything that Toronto weather can give.

I trust Michelin to perform on and off the road during the worse winter conditions. I use my 2016 Range Rover HSE Sport in the worst winter conditions, and also do a lot of off roading for ice fishing and hunting camp in the woods. When there is no plowed roads, these get the job done and have never failed to perform even in the deepest snow and through streams which land rover can easily pass through. I chose the Michelin X-ICE 255-55-R20 for its aggressive and wide foot print to conquer the worst snow that winter can through at us in Canadian winters.

These tires are simply amazing. They are worth every penny that I spent on them. Also, I have 100% confidence in my driving with these tires in this weather. I live in Duluth Minnesota and these tires are much needed in the winter. I appreciate the quality of these particular tires, I will recommend these to friends and family and always buy these tires whenever I need them

Use them for a winter season on a Tesla Mode 3 RWD. I am used to the X-Ice on a different car. They improved the traction on snow vs X-Ice significantly and the grip on ice is still very good. I noticed a bit tire noise between 50-70kmh (specially with an EV car) but they are impressively quiet at highway speed.

Honestly everyone is complaining these tires suck on there AWD escapes or rav4s or CRVs w/e i have a set (only 2) on the back of my genesis coupe that sits like 1 inch off the ground and it trucks through snow, ice, slush, I think a lot of you need to just learn to drive in the snow.

I drive 50,000 to 80,000 km a year. I have worn out a few Ford Escapes on these tires and wouldn’t buy anything else. They are smoother and quieter than all season tires and out perform them in all conditions summer and winter. I get 80,000+ kms out of them and they work in snow until the end.
