Description of MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 SUV 265/55 R20 113T winter
Michelin X-Ice North 4 SUV is designed for SUVs and crossovers. Announced in spring 2019. The tire is designed to overcome severe winter weather conditions.
The MICHELIN X-Ice North 4 studded tire provides a high level of braking and handling on ice, while maintaining low noise levels.
The Michelin X-Ice North 4 SUV winter tire is designed for crossovers and SUVs that rarely go off paved roads. Structurally, it is a version of the eponymous "passenger" model. It differs from it in the size range and design, adapted to the increased weight and high center of gravity of all-wheel drive vehicles. The performance properties of both tires are almost identical.
Increased number of spikesOne of the key features of this model is the number of spikes. The tread, depending on the width, contains at least 250 metal elements distributed along at least 22 longitudinal and transverse lines. The installation locations are the result of the application of computer simulation technologies, which have made it possible to find the perfect balance between traction and acoustic comfort. Around each spike on the tread there are special "holes" - zones with numerous protrusions that grind ice chips into smaller fractions. The body of the stud is fixed in the lower "hard" layer of the tread, which reduces the risk of losing it.
Grip stability on asphalt and snow This solution increases the size of the contact patch, ensuring uniform distribution of pressure over it. As a result, traction on asphalt and snow becomes more stable.
Reliability in the most difficult conditionsIn the most difficult conditions, the tire demonstrates excellent reliability. In many ways, it is due to the design of the frame, in which an additional cord appeared. On top of it is an additional layer of a special material that is resistant to negative temperatures. It additionally enhances the level of sealing of the inner space of the tire in severe frosts.
The main features of the Michelin X-Ice North 4 SUV - an increased number of studs and a computer-aided layout of their arrangement provides high grip stability and acoustic comfort; - special "holes" around the studs crush ice chips; - low risk of losing studs due to their fixation in the lower hard layer of the running part of the tread; - optimized arrangement of blocks increases grip stability on asphalt and snow, prevents uneven wear; - reinforced carcass with an additional sealing layer ensures reliability at extremely low temperatures.
