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 have purchased Michelin Winter Tires for over a decade now. I have run X-Ice and X-Ice2 in the past on our Ford Focus and currently run Michelin Latitude X-Ice on our large SUV. After reviewing what was available we chose the Michelin X-Ice Snow SUV for our new small SUV. The grip on ice and in deep snow is excellent. Probably the best version of the X-Ice tires we have bought to date.

I previously had X-Ice tires on my VW Rabbit. They were really good tires but the X-Ice Snow are even better! The X-Ice Snow gripped icy roads a little better than the X-Ice but the snow traction was vastly better. I recommend them whenever anyone talks about winter tires.

I purchased these tires in December to replace the supplied mud & Snow tires on my new Rave4. These tires ride much smother than the Mud&Snow tires and were great on ice and snow over the whole winter in Manitoba. I will be keeping these tires over the full year even though they may ware a little more during the summer months. My first ice and snow tires on my old Montana lasted 90,000 km year round before getting to the wear mark.

This was my first year getting Michelin tires. I was very satisfied with their performance. I have a 17 year old new driver, who drove in the snow for the first time and she was very comfortable and felt secure on the road. Now if we can only do something about the crazy drivers on the road. lol.

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 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.

Bought these tires in 2020 and have used them through now a second winter ( albeit just starting) but I must say what really stands out is the performance on ice. When the season starts, I like to come to a complete stop and start to see "how bad it is out there" and compared to my previous brand of tires, the stopping power and take off has been the best so far. They produce very little noise when on pavement and handle very well in dry conditions including wet.

I own a driving school and I bought a set of X-Ice tires for one of my training cars. They are excellent tires. They have a comfortable, quiet ride and they handle well on snow and ice as well as on dry roads. I'll be buying more of them for my other training cars next fall.

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.
