Tires MICHELIN or Nokia

X-ice will last longer because of the tread construction and comes with a bit of a warranty. They handle phenomenally.

Michelin Defender 2 . They came with my car when I got it and opened my eyes to what a good new set of tires is like. They also last a really long time. Im shocked to still see alot of thread instead of shocked by seeing how fast the tread is wasting

X ice have been pretty good for Edmonton/Alberta winters. We used them for about 6 years.

I have also run X-Ice Snow when they updated that tire. One thing to note about most winter tires, is that when they get wear down, the lower part of the tread is no longer considered a snow tire, but rather all seasons. X-Ice snow doesn't do this, the sipes go all the way down to the bottom. That kinda sold me on them when I had purchased them.

Nokian Hak 10 are great as well, but I think they are a bit noiser and less life. But they do grip really well. I used Nokians without them being studded....my truck took off at icy intersections like nothing.

I've used X-ice for years. One of the best tires on the market for snow.

I drive a 2004 volvo XC70, that sees a lot of dirt, mud, back roads and sometimes even snow. Michelin cross climate 2s on that thing no matter what... Those tires are just plain amazing on anything all wheel drive that encounters a lot of sloppy shit.

Michelin Defenders best tire on the market don\u2019t care what anyone says

Truly a shame that Michelins dry rot so quick because they ride great and are pretty good mileage wise. The general rule is replace tires every 5 years, but I see Michelins start dry rotting just 3 years after production. Really sucks for older people who don’t drive as much.

Do not get PS4s for the track. They can’t handle extended periods under heat and fall apart quickly.
