Review on MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 SUV 255/50 R19 107T winter by Mateusz Bana ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

In this age of globalization, in my personal opinion, I find that the consumer quality of products across the board is consistently high at around the same price point. Distinction in Marketing. For this reason, headlines like "The worst tires" and "The best winter tires I have ever ridden" are immediately disregarded. 235/60/R18. As of the months of November and December in 2022, in Hong Kong, the rubber is transparent and well worth the investment. The true winter is coming, and I will elaborate on that later. Sadly, winter has arrived as of 01/10/2022. It started snowing seriously on New Year's Eve. After a blizzard, I traveled to the countryside on a road that neither side claimed. Powerful control and stopping ability! This tire's elements are, unsurprisingly, snow and ice. Excellent directional stability and stopping power.

Pros
  • Now, on the eve of the New Year 2022, it is pointless for me to wait for a comprehensive assessment from 2022 buyers residing in the Central 2022 Upland, therefore I will make a reservation now. The cities are devoid of snow, and the temperature is just over freezing. The benefits of using studded tires on smooth city streets are as follows. Somewhat loud. Do not believe the feedback that says they are quiet. Either individuals are easily swayed, the volume of the music is high, or the marketing is effective. However, they are noticeably quieter than the Toyo OpenCountry and marginally quieter than the Nokian SUV 5. Despite this, there is a rumble closer than 100 km, with a rhythmic howl, and it can be heard even with good Shumkov. BUT this symptom is required for spikes to occur. - After two months of driving on asphalt, the Honda C-RV K24's spikes are properly installed. In my opinion, this is a promising sign. - high resistance to rolling. Although it has a studded tread and a soft rubber tire, this model nonetheless takes off without any "thoughtfulness" when the light turns green. There will be no further updates at this time. When the true winter of 2022 arrives, I'll be able to write it off.
Cons
  • I'll admit that I fell for the advertising and was hoping for quieter surroundings. I finally gave up and bought some all-season tires, even though I've always used studded ones in the winter. Compared to the previously driven Nokian SUV 5 and Toyo OpenCountry, this vehicle is noticeably quieter. No further flaws were found. We shall see when the true winter arrives.
