I run 205/50/R17 Michelin X-Ice XI3s on OEM Silex rims. It has been worth every damn penny in snowy and icy conditions. The extra impact absorption on late winter frost heaves and potholes is icing on the cake.
I’m running my winters on 18” wheels with Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4. It’s Michelin’s performance-oriented snow tire. 235/40-18. Loving it.
Only downside I can see is that now I can't give it the business merging in 2nd gear, as it will just blow through the tires (and I've already upgraded them to a Michelin Pilot Sport since I felt the factory Hankook rode very rough).
For what it\u2019s worth, I went down two wheel sizes with my 2018 Golf R. 19 to 17 for Michelin snow tires, from 235/35-19 to 225/45-17. Not much weather yet to really test but some handling loss of course.
I prefer the x-ice over the blizacks. I found they last longer and maintain their grip as they wear better. But I must admit I am partial to Michelin in general.
First thing going on my project s2k is a fresh set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4s. Things that make constant contact with the ground should not be substituted for a cheaper, inferior replacement.
Michelin just always crack.
I personally don't like Michelin tires. The rubber just feels cheap.
I cant think of a Michelin tire that i havent seen cracking prematurely
Stay away from American made tires, it might sound crazy to hear but it's true. Michelin, Goodyear, MasterCraft, Cooper, they aren't worth the hassle the compound is much too soft.
