Tires MICHELIN or LANDSAIL

Just put the Ice X's back on yesterday for their 2nd winter after going with them from this thread. Very pleased w/ their performance and wear so far.

My Countryman has Michelin X-Ice tires in winter.

I had a set of four Michelin Defender all season tires on my SUV and had them for 6 years before having to get new tires and I will sadly admit that I neglected to rotate them for the last 4 years and they lasted through snow rain summer I drive about 1200 maybe 1300 miles a month I highly recommend Michelin tires to anybody for anything truck car motorcycle you get what you pay for

I had a set on my civic before I sold it and honestly they were great. I felt confident cornering with them and they very rarely chirped because they had such good grip!

Get the michelins. Best tire. Smooth, quiet, long lasting, great warrenty, great in rain & snow.

I went down a size to 17 inch and got the Michelin x ice snow. I believe these and the blizzak ws90 are the top rated so get whatever is the cheaper option or has stock.

I had x ice on my accord and they were solid with great tread life.

I had the road control 2 all seasons on my cx5 and was averaging 27-28 mpg. I put the defender 2 on, averaging 30-32 mpg now. Check it at the pump to compare with the computer and the vehicle was off 0.5 mpg.

Previously I had Michelin Defender xlt. While I would prefer a more pavement oriented tire the Coopers where the only load range E tires I could get on a 3 day turnaround when I needed them.

I liked the Michelins but the xl load rating was just too squirmy while towing a 7000lb trailer.

The Michelins that came with the 18s and the pro contacts with the 19s were some of the worst handling tires I’ve owned especially in the rain. I’ve never hydroplaned as much as on those tires on any of my previous cars. I wouldn’t want anybody I care about or myself driving on those in the rain. But if it doesn’t rain where you live, they’re pretty nice thanks to the foam.
