The Michelins Xice are so good I rarely buy anything else. Hardly notice they are on in dry conditions. The big van gets BFG KO2 tires and those pretty much rule as well

Pros: so good, hardly notice in dry conditions

I purchased a set of X-Ice for my old Audi A6 years ago and had great tire life - over 8 winters - and still only half worn when I sold the car with 144,000 miles on it. Super traction on Ice - Packed Snow - and every day cold weather wet driving in Seattle. Took a trip in CA national parks in December and never got stuck. So when I got my Alltrack SEL - I saved the 17 inch wheels from my Buyback TDI - and bought another set of Michelin X-Ice to fit the 17's and though only driven one winter I think they are great. They are not noisy and a great ride - better then the Conti's on 18 inch Wheels actually.

Pros: great tire life, super traction, not noisy, great ride
Vehicle: Audi A6
Mileage: 231745 km

I own a rwd lowered coupe, drove it all winter last year and bought Michelin x ice tires, had no issues. As long as you're a decent winter driver and have good winter tires you'll be fine.

Pros: no issues

Definitely winters for a RWD, I had a RWD 335i with X-Ice 3 and I never had an issue with tires. The only problem I had with snow was my car basically plowing the streets because it was so low.

Pros: no issue with tires
Cons: car plowed streets
Vehicle: BMW

I would suggest Michelin Defenders, my JSW had them on for 35,000 miles and look great when I traded the car back to VW.

Pros: look great
Vehicle: Volkswagen
Mileage: 35000 km

Bought Michellin Pilot Sport 4s for my 06 2.3L (figured why not spend a bit more because you don't really buy tyres often)

I'm very happy with them so far.

Pros: very happy
Vehicle: Mazda

I had Pirelli tires on my car when I first bought it.. Some new all weather performance tires and let’s just say it was quite scary if there was even a little water on the road. I bought Michelin Pilot Super Sport A/S tires and they have been absolutely fantastic. Rain, shine, or snow the grip levels are very high, blow Pirelli out of the water. There have been instances in the snow when I feel the Michelin tires have saved my life. With the Pirellis, I would not even consider taking the car out in the snow. I drive a Mustang GT.

Pros: high grip levels, great performance
Cons: scary in wet conditions

Over the last 20 years I\u2019ve liked Michelin the most for normal daily driving, they tend to be pricier than comparable brands but when you factor in balance, noise, traction, and wear I\u2019d say I prefer them.

Pros: balance, noise, traction, wear
Cons: pricier than comparable brands

30K miles on my A/S3's on the Mini. They still grip reasonably well in the dry; the wet is iffy. While there is still treadlife left, the tire howl has becoming bad. They were nearly silent when new.

Pros: grip reasonably well in dry
Cons: wet is iffy, tire howl
