Review on Tires Michelin X-Ice North 4 215/65 R17 103T stud.-304862 by Stanisaw Socha ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Terrible quality, disappointed with the purchase.

After 5000 kilometers, the spikes on michelin x-ice north 4 tires begin to waver and lose all sense of direction, rendering the tires useless. Due to the fact that the spikes broke, the Michelin X-Ice North 3 was replaced with a Michelin X-Ice North 4 instead. The only thing that bothered me about the tire was that it had a thin sidewall, but other than that, it was perfect for me. It was a Michelin X-Ice North 2 model. They were standing in my logan, and I simply passed them on the right. I recall that a good amount of snow fell, and as usual, no one cleared it; as a result, all of the vehicles slog along, and I drive confidently for sixty kilometers. At first, I didn't understand what the problem was; later, I discovered it was when the Nordman 5 was purchased, and he nearly died while using it. As a result, I have a hard time comprehending the policy that Michelin adheres to. Why is it necessary for you to litter regular tires? You can easily make the string thicker, and even if it doesn't work, you can always plant the spikes in a stronger position; that's all there is to it. They have obviously succeeded in making a complete mess of everything, and it would appear that this is something that they do on purpose at their business. The corporate car also has the same tires, and even though it drove 7000 kilometers without losing any spikes, you can securely swing them all in different directions with your finger. In general, I do not see why you would want to tarnish your reputation. Because there was a divorce with Michelin X-Ice North 3 and all of the spikes broke for 2,000 dollars, and here it is, but it's not cheap, I personally will never purchase Michelin again, and I will urge my friends not to buy. Now let any "super model" go, since I won't believe you and I won't accept it!

Pros
  • the first 5000 kilometers were on ultra-sticky rubber.
Cons
  • The spikes are not nearly as effective as they should be since there are so many of them, yet each one is so small that they become ineffective even when there is very little snow on the ground. The fact that their typical work is done between 5000 and 7000 kilometers away is, nevertheless, the most essential issue. Additionally, the cord could be made more rigid.
