After purchasing these tires for the Alaskan winter, I am very pleased. First off, the tires are very quiet, and there is no noticeable power loss from my all seasons. The tread pattern also handles slush with ease. I have made several drives along the Alcan and the numbered roads in Alaska and I can say I prefer a snow and ice covered highway with these tires than dry tarmac because the former is more smooth, and these tires have great grip on ice. I also have driven in 4 and 5 inch snow on the road and I had no trouble with grip, once again the tread pattern works wonders. Too be fair this is the only set of dedicated snow tires I've ever owned, but I will not hesitate to buy these again.

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.

HAD THESE TIRES FOR 6 YEARS ON OUR NISSAN ROGUE SPORT, EXCELLENT GRIP AND WEAR.TREAD LIFE. TYPICALLY USED IN THE WINTER FOR 10-15KM IN ALBERTA, CANADA WEATHER. ON AN 18" RIM THE 255/65/R18 ARE VERY QUIET AND COMFORTABLE. RECENTLY BOUGHT THEM AGAIN, HOWEVER, I AM CURIOUS HOW MUCH BETTER STUDDED VERSIONS WOULD BE.

I've always loved the X-Ice tires from Michelin. All my cars and trucks have had them. The traction is phenomenal and they are so quiet. I never look forward to putting my summer tires on as they are noisier compared to these. They usually last me 4 years and I usually give them to my family as they are still great for lighter use. I do approximatetely 60k a year. About 30k on winter and 30k on summer.

After having owned several generations of the Pilot Sport Alpin, my tire dealer only had the X-Ice Snows available this time. They’re great in the snow and wet, but REALLY annoying in dry handling, in that they make a lot of noise above maybe 0.3g. The Alpins NEVER exhibited this characteristic….

We purchased these tires and they work great in snow storms, better than most on black ice and keep us clinging to the roads throughout the months of bad weather we experience. We will continue to purchase these tires as long as we face winter driving!

We didn't have enough snow this winter to know how well these perform as winter tires, but they met one of my biggest requirements - they are quiet! I bought the EV rated version and on my very quiet Mustang Mach E they are as quiet as the original all seasons.

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.

I had two sets of x ice snow suv for my Range Rover and Tesla model x plaid. Range Rover is heavy and the tires do good in winter. Tesla has over 1000 lb ft of torque had one time slippered on the road bump in the snow road. Overall I only use this brand and this series. I think other brand is either too thick or too thin.

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!
