Michelin X-Ice Snow Winter 245/50R20 105T XL Passenger Tire

I recently switched to Michelin X-Ice tires for my electric vehicle, and I couldn't be happier with the decision. From the first snowfall, these tires have delivered exactly what I was hoping for — confidence, control, and comfort. They handle beautifully in all winter conditions — whether it's icy back roads, slushy intersections, or packed snow. The traction is solid and predictable, and braking feels secure even in challenging situations. My EV's instant torque can be tough on tires in the winter, but the X-Ice grips so well that acceleration remains smooth and stable. Another big advantage is how quiet they are. Since EVs don't have engine noise, tire sound becomes more noticeable, and I was pleasantly surprised by how refined these feel on the road. They also seem to have low rolling resistance, so I haven't noticed any major impact on range. After several weeks of mixed winter driving, I can confidently say the Michelin X-Ice tires live up to their reputation. They provide excellent safety and comfort without sacrificing efficiency — exactly what an EV driver needs in a winter tire.

I purchased my first all electric car, a Hyundai Ionic 6, and wanted to ensure that I had the best possible tire for the winter roads. The Michelin X-Ice Snow tires were an excellent choice as I had comfortable travels with confidence on winter roads here in Nova Scotia where we regularly have snow, slush and ice. After a full winter's travel on the tires I checked the tread pattern and see very minimal wear. I hit several of the multitude of terrible potholes in the pavement and did not suffer any damage to the tires while there were many others blowing tires on the same roads. I am very happy either the design, durability and strength of the tires. T HR weight of the car was not an issue with the tires and I am very happy with the car and its ride on the Michelin tires.
