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

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Performs its functions, nothing unusual.

Tires XIN3 were purchased along with a new car (Polo). After the first winter, spikes began to be lost. Driving style - penny, running in the "vegetable" mode 500 km. I found out that this model had a marriage of spikes - they simply broke off, the base remained in the tire. I turned to Michelin, they gave me the contacts of a dealer who can be contacted for a complaint, which was done. The claim was approved, however, the dealer reported that the XIN3 was out of stock. When asked if there would be a replacement for the XIN4 model, they answered that the XIN4 does not have the required dimension (185/60/15), and they refused to change to the existing 195/xx/15 for an extra charge. As a result, the dealer issued XIN2, a ten-year-old model, which, in terms of its characteristics, does not suit in any way. I contacted Michelin - they confirmed to me that the dealer is acting within the rules. When choosing tires, I suggest keeping in mind that the Michelin guarantee is like this - the tires will be replaced, but for what . As a confirmation of the words, I am enclosing the documents. . 212022202222 As a result, they took XIN2 from me, they gave me XIN4 195/60/15. Satisfied with the result, dissatisfied with the process - the buyer should not resolve the issue with a complaint through posts in . Market for six months. I'll change my shoes, run in, add a review. So far I've given 3 stars everywhere. . 282022202222 Passed 1000 km. Comparison with: ContiIceContact1, XIN3, Hankook W429. From the tangible - very quiet at any speed, no hum, no howl, rather the rustle adds a decibel to the overall noise. At slow speeds on clean pavement, the clatter of the spikes is audible, of course. There was not much cold, ice and snow yet, but, in general, so far they are above expectations, they hold the road and steer well.
