Reviews of MICHELIN parts For Business

Been driving in Canadian winters with X-Ice\u2019s for the past 3 winters and have never had any issues. Always feel safe on the road with them, and I\u2019ve had to drive through blizzards several times.

On a separate note I don't notice much difference between Michelin and Pirelli in the dry, but in the wet gimme' my Michelin's any day.

Recommendation:\n- Michelin Cross Climate 2 with padding. I get them from Discount Tires, I buy their insurance. What you pay upfront is what you get in back end. I have had a few total replacements with no cost.

I found Michelin Road 5s to keep their excellent feel in the wet and the cold. I commuted in under 10 degrees F and through snowstorms on them several times. Obviously slowed way down in the snow, but the tires kept telling me they had more grip if I wanted it.

I picked up the Michelin something’s at Costco on a whim, and honestly they seem great.

I like the Michelin ones - Bosch are great too if you can get them at a discount but are massively overpriced at places like Pep Boys / Advanced etc.

Very decent snow tires despite not being all-out winters. AMAZING in the rain. Aquaplane resistance is second to none, great straight line grip, pretty good in the corners. My current set is down to about 5/16 and is losing grip like crazy, but that is expected. It took 70k miles to get down to 5/16, by the way.

You could go to an all weather tire like the Michelin Cross Climate 2

I have these on my Q5 and while I like them and they are grippy, I don’t notice any difference in road noise from the stock tires.

The OEM tires - Michelin EnergySaver AS - are great for efficiency and pretty bad for everything else. Went through two sets, and both were consistently bad in rain and snow. One of the tires on the second set got ripped on the *sidewall* as it hit a pothole, and I found out later that the sidewalls were indeed a bit of weakness for them.
