Review on MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 195/65 R15 95T winter by Dimitar Vasilev ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Upset and disappointed, the product is very bad!

The decision to choose 205/55r17 tires for a new car was made with great consideration. Lada Vesta SV Cross, enticed by positive reviews, decided against saving and adopted the "market leader" Prior to that, I had driven several other vehicles, including some quite affordable wood vehicles that I had purchased on the used automobile market. Nordman 4 (new), Nordman 7 (new), Hakka 4 (killed, inherited from the automobile), No tire performs like the MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 does; it grips firmly even on an asphalt track on a dry road at +2 to +5 degrees. To be really honest, I'm worried about what will occur when the road becomes icy. When moving along an asphalt rut, the automobile begins to throw violently, barely exits the rut, and rolls over to another lane. This is all happening on dry asphalt at speeds of 50–60 mph. The behavior gets worse if you accelerate during the overtaking action. Driving was eerie. I only saw a rut once during my entire driving adventure on Nordman 7. Then, I believe it was my responsibility because there was only a 20 cm ice crust on the road, causing the Lacetti to touch the ground. I had to walk along the edge of the rut, and I may have gone a little above the limit by accelerating to 50 in such dangerous circumstances, for which he was fined. The performance of Michelin tires in this situation is often subpar. This is what I would only anticipate from the cheapest Chinese. The X-Ice North 4 is probably best suited for an icy rally track, something the company is very proud of. However, these tires are not at all appropriate for regular people who live in the middle lane and experience winters that are either comprised of an ice crust, porridge, or dry asphalt. However, selling to hamsters is more crucial than Michelin (( On

Pros
  • attractive appearance Colorful manufacturer promises and drooling autobloggers
Cons
  • The cost of such power in a rut, a persistent fear that you'll begin to slide uncontrollably when maneuvering
