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 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.

We use this tyre for racing sno-drift rally during icy years. We use a tyre shredder to open up the tread a bit and they are unbeatable on ice (exept compared to studded tyres) Deep snow the choice was Yokohama’s A034 but they no longer make them so we would cut out some of the tread block to help clear snow. Such a useful and adaptable tyre. Best road legal snow tyre for Michigan, I run them on my 2wd 911 daily driver and they have never let me down.

6 months in the Alaskan winter snow. 20 inches of snow and 3 inches of ice and these tires perform amazing. great grip for the winter and comfortable ride. tires meant for the real winters here in Alaska. shoutout to MICHELIN for letting people post real reviews good and bad. buying all season tires for the summer here in Alaska.

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 my tires last fall, and drive all winter in ice and snow conditions everyday. I start work at 5am so had to leave very early in the mornings. I was on the road some mornings before the snow-grader and had to drive in some pretty bad conditions. The tires were fantastic! I had perfect traction and felt quite secure knowing that I wouldn’t have any trouble at all in those conditions!

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.

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.

Got some Michelin snow tires for the Mustang ast winter. They were great the following day after the storm, when the roads have been cleared and salted. You have to exercise care and caution if you're going to drive thru a snow storm. It's a Mustang. Light rear end, rear wheel drive only. Lots of donuts for the fun loving crazies out there!
