Tyre reviews Michelin X-Ice North 4. Page 9 881

205 /55 R 16. Replaced with 2 Michelin (driven for 9 seasons, lost 60% of tread). 500km break-in, then standard driving. The tire is soft, it hums on asphalt, less than the Hakkapeliitta 9 from Nokian. Starting on ice - excellent, holds the road (250 studs felt). Light snow - good. Wet snow - burying. By their characteristics, they are among the most balanced winter

The tire performed well out of the groove and it didn't let the studs come off during the season. The car's grip on ice was very good. The braking distance is not long.

Excellent soft tyres. Comparing to Nordman 4, much less noise. Probably due to the 2mm shallower tread depth. No regrets about the purchase. Compared to the Turanza T005 R19 summer tyre, of course, you need to get used to it, as you can feel the sliding on the asphalt and the lean, but the winter tyre is not about drive. I didn't notice any aquaplaning. I drove into big puddles. Accelerated no more

Great tires! After one season (30,000 km) almost all studs are still in place! The rubber is in excellent condition! The tire is grippy and fairly loud (very many studs)!

Ran 2 winters with studs in place. Just the shackle is a tube. Previously, I drove on the XIN 3. Heaven and Earth. 4 would be worse on bare asphalt, but with snow and slush, it's just superb. In other words, if there are winters without snow and it's warm, I'd choose 3. But if there's cold, snow, and ice, I'd choose 4 without a doubt.

Fantastic tires for slippery surfaces! Habitual to old studded tires, you lose track of the fact that you expect to skid the car, but it does it extremely reluctantly. Good road noise on asphalt. Good handling. But braking as with any studded tires is a bit prolonged. In my opinion, the best studded tires and the only worthy ones. During the entire winter I lost no studs, while driving 630 horses.

Great tires, drove one winter season 1920. Now changed to summer, looked at the tires all studs are intact. The tire handles well on the winter road, low noise level, on clean asphalt the studs are audible. I'm satisfied with the purchase, the price is normal, the delivery is fast. I'm buying from this store for the second time and I will continue, even taking into account the delivery to my city (1300 rubles) and tire mounting, the tires turned

The tires are really great, holding the road well, very little noise. The studs are in place, no problems. I have been driving for one season so far.

Great option for 4WD. Winter is skated away by 5+. Silent tyres, behave like summer ones, but weight of the car must be taken into account.

Excellent winter tire.
Although the period from November 2019 to March 2020 cannot be called winter, the tire was tested in conditions for which it was designed.
Subjective opinion:
1) dry roads and negative temperature - good handling and low noise from studs
2) dry roads and warm weather - feeling that the tire begins to float, noise from studs remains quiet
3) roads with loose snow - good handling, noise from studs almost
