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.

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 have always either bought, or insisted on having Michelin tires on my new vehicles. I am always satisfied with the performance of these tires and feel safe with them. This is the second set of four tires I have purchased this year : X-Ice tires for winter plus all-season ones for spring, summer and fall. I expect they will last me for several years.

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.

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.

I have always been a Michelin fan since past 7 years and always relied on the brand. However, the X ICE Winter tires didnt set my expectation right. I installed brand new set of winter tires on my brand new Honda CRV but it keeps slipping in little bit of ice and doesnt have as much traction as expected. So I am not satisfied.

I have bought several sets of Michelin X-Ice snow tires over the years, they are definitely my winter tire of choice. I feel 100% safe driving in all winds and weather during our winter season with these amazing tires. It is a tire you can trust to get you where you are going. Love my Michelin X-Ice!

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.

Bought these brand new for both my car and SUV (Chevrolet Cruze Diesel Manual Hatch 2018 and Lincoln MKX 2.7 2016) in 16" and 20". Super comfortable, low noise and rides like a train on track. No regret. Only Michelin on my cars for both winter and summer. After all, they invented the tire and they still are the best.

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!
