Review on MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 SUV 265/55 R20 113T winter by Gabriela Wieczorek ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Im amazed! It was definitely worth the money!

It is something. Michelin guys, you've outdone yourself. I am a tire manufacturer, I have been watching Michelin's X-Ice line for a long time, 1 was more or less successful, 2, 2+, 3 were not successful in the market. But it feels like a lot of work has been done on the bugs and Michelin has managed to create the really best winter tire on the market. Yes Yes! they definitely wiped their nose with green N. Let's start with the fact that x-ice north 4 is a Nordic type tire, and this is what you need in central 2022. For the entire time of use (3.5 months), only 1 spike flew out, and this despite the fact that there was no snow, everyone snorted on dry asphalt. I think that the tire is extremely underestimated, due to previous defeats in the market. I change tires every winter, I went to NH9, but the bears really have better grip. I recommend.

Pros
  • Excellent handling, high lateral resistance, higher than competitors. Very quiet, due to smaller spikes, but in total their area is larger than that of any other winter tire. The quality of the spikes is just excellent, damn! How did you do that? Perfectly balanced, soft tread structure and just a huge number of sipes. Remarkably removes water and dirt.
Cons
  • There are almost none of them, the only thing that confuses is the very soft sidewall.
