Review on MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 205/55 R16 94T winter by Ewa Migda-Grabska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

snow that has been rolled, snow that is loose and deep, and ice. These tires simply don't give a damn. The year before, I skated on friction clutches, and while I could get as far as dry asphalt, there were no brakes at all on the ice, so I had to limit my travel. Now there is a surplus of everything that was before available. Rowing tread with 250 studs per wheel and a high-quality, flexible rubber composition. I go around slick bends by taxiing the steering wheel with gas, and even if I went into a skid, it doesn't matter because everything is under control and everything can be predicted. Quickly gets back on the right path. On the track, everything goes smoothly and confidently, but the throws are not quite accurate. Any slick slides can be passed when both the gas pedal and the floor pedal are fully depressed. The snow will dig all the way to the ground, it will drive everywhere (until it sits on its belly), and all of the spikes for the next 2 seasons are already in place. The tread has only minimal wear. I was traveling at a speed of 60 kilometers per hour when I collided with a curb, which resulted in a minor hernia that is now resolved. If there is snow, ice, or any other type of slick surface on this rubber, you will be able to drive quicker than other people without having to worry about maneuvering, accelerating, or breaking. Dry asphalt may be driven on without too much difficulty; all the same, I believe there are a lot of spikes for asphalt, which is not a plus; the friction clutch handled it much better. But I'm not going to grumble about it. I can promise you without a shadow of a doubt that the rubber is well worth every penny; in fact, this is the best of the best. Premium tires in the higher sector, such as Hakka, Conti, Michelin, or Pirelli, perform similarly to one another. I just took and will continue to take based on the evaluations of prominent periodicals and reviews solely from this industry. In my opinion, Xin 4 is the greatest rubber available right now for riding in snowy and cold climates. 1000 spikes on 4 wheels! 100% satisfied
