Review on MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 SUV 285/60 R18 116T winter by Michal Cedronski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I can't stop being happy with the purchase, a very good deal!

It's a start. You people at Michelin have really raised the bar. As a tire producer, I have kept a close eye on Michelin's X-Ice range, and while model 1 fared reasonably well, models 2, 2+, and 3 flopped. It appears that many issues have been fixed and Michelin has produced the finest winter tire available. Absolutely, without a doubt, they used a green N to clean their nose. To begin, the x-ice north 4 is a Nordic type tire, which is ideal for driving in the center regions of 2022. There was no snow for the entire three and a half months of use, and yet only one spike came loose when someone snorted on the dry asphalt. Because of its history of failure on the market, I believe the tire is severely undervalued. I switch to NH9 winter tires every year, yet the bears prove to have superior traction. An endorsement from me.

Pros
  • Superior control, more lateral strength, and height than the competition. Quieter than any other winter tire because of their smaller spikes, but they nevertheless cover more ground than the competition. The spikes are so well made, it's ridiculous. What was your secret? Sufficiently numerous sipes without being overly aggressive, supple tread structure. Excellent for draining out moisture and grime.
Cons
  • Very few exist, and the only thing that can cause confusion is the thin walls.
