Michelin x-ice are for more roads and packed snow. I have a set of x ice 2 that are great, lots of grip in the winter. Much better stopping on plowed roads, and deeper snow they handle great
Owner reviews for tires
All 3 are good but get the Hakkas. They're very good at cornering on winding mountain roads, excellent control and they handle the spring warm/snow cycle well.
Punctures that didn't go deep in the tread usually would be fine. Looks llike they sprayed water on it and there are no air bubbles indicating air leaking.
Goodyear Eagle Sport All-Seasons.
I enjoy more spirited driving which sometimes does involve sliding the car a little. However for daily use, they're pretty quiet and are pretty good on tread wear.
I highly recommend Bridgestone Blizzaks. I put those on my stock steelies and bought a nicer set of aftermarket wheels with all season tires for Spring through Fall.
I just put Michelin X-Ice Snow tires on my Fit. Haven't had a chance to try them in winter conditions.
I'm with you. I've clocked about 7000 miles on the Nomad Grapplers now, and they are a noticeable improvement to the truck in all areas but fuel economy.
So now that I’ve had 1k miles on the Nitto Nomads I figured I’d drop a review. These tires are noticeably better. I feel confident on turns that they are gripping and never sliding. They do great in rain, gravel and mud.
I'm running on Kumhos, so I can't say much about others. Kumho (KM17) is OK, but it generates a flat spot in few weeks if car just sits and then first 10 miles are bumpy. Quite cheap so perhaps I can stand that, but not really much cheaper than others, so I won't buy another set.
if you drive a lot, you can get fresh Sailun for cheaper prices, but after two years they will be hard as rock and wont do their thing anymore.
