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’ve had X-ice’s now on two cars, my 370z and now my Elantra GT N-line and they are perfect! Never left me stuck, always providing great traction and grip in poor conditions. They are quiet and wear well. Worth every penny for the safety, security, performance and peace of mind.

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.

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.

These are very well made tires. I’ve always appreciated Michelin’s for their comfort and durability and even fabrication. They are well balanced as a result. No rumbles at high speeds, and great handling. I particularly appreciate the quiet ride they give, they are even quieter than my summer Michelin’s. Be prepared to pay a high price for them but they are worth the money.

Amazing tread wear on Michelin X-Ice! Lasted longer than the 60k guarantee

using them on BMW IX, very stable, great grips and very quiet.

Very comfortable ride. Handle very well. Fantastic in the rain.

Comfortable ride in winter condition

Excellent tires, very reliable.
