Review on MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 205/55 R16 94T winter by Adela Gheorghe ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Disgusting quality, impossible to use.

Michelin X-Ice North 4 tires are good for 5000 km until the spikes start to waver and lose their effectiveness. The reason why Michael X-Ice North 3 and North 4 happened was because the spikes broke. The sole drawback of this Michelin X-Ice North 2 is its flimsy sidewall, but otherwise everything suited me. They were on my logan, and I was just to my right. I recall that the snow came nicely, and as usual, no one cleared it. As a result, all the cars trudged, and I confidently drove 60 kilometers, before I noticed what was wrong when the Nordman 5 purchased it and nearly died on it. I therefore find it challenging to comprehend Michelin's policy. Why is it necessary to litter regular tires? Simply increasing the cord's thickness will make the spikes stronger, but that is all there is to it. Therefore, they succeeded in ruining everything. It appears like they have nits at their business and they do it on purpose. P.S. The company's vehicle used the same tires and drove 7000 km without any spikes being lost, however you can securely swing them all with your finger in various directions. In general, I don't see why you would ruin your reputation. But because there was a divorce with Michelin X-Ice North 3, all the spikes broke, for $2,000, and here it is, but it's not cheap, I personally won't ever purchase Michelin again and I'll tell my friends not to buy. Release any "super model" at this time, or I won't accept it and you won't believe me!

Pros
  • the first 5000 kilometers were on very rubber.
Cons
  • The spikes are simply not what they should be; they are many but little, and even with little snow, they stop operating. However, the most significant fact is that their regular employment is over after 5000–7000 kilometers. The cord could also be stiffened.
