Very very happy with my x ice tires
I’ve bought both for my Jetta. The X-Ice worked great in our winter conditions. The X-Ice have a 60k tread wear warranty and the Blizzaks have none. The X-Ice are also made at the Michelin Pictou plant so they support Nova Scotian jobs.
I would stand by the Michelin Cross Climate 2 as a year round tire. I found it fantastic in the rain and snow. I think the trade off was that the ice performance was worse than a traditional snow and ice tire, but overall, it was just fantastic and if my current car hadn't come with new tires, I would have just bought those again.
X-Ice are great.
the X-Ice has lower rolling resistance (better fuel economy) and is the only winter tire I know of with a manufacturer treadlife warranty, so if longevity is your concern, go Michelin.
my michelin x ice's lasted FOREVER.
I have the Michelin X-Ice and I love them! Plus Michelin tires have a road side assistance included, which I love
Have Michelins on my car. The Michelins are starting their 3 or 4th season with still tons of tread life remaining. I have bombed through snow that was easy 1-1.5feet and never got stuck or had any concerns!
I track my G82 M4 with the stock PS4Ss for a few sessions when I first started. They are find for beginners and arguably better for learning. If you’re not pushing hard, I’ve seen them last a whole season or only two to three events if you’re actually driving to the limit. The biggest thing to watch out for is the lack of camber. The stock car provides about 2.5 degrees of front camber which will cord the outer shoulders should while leaving most of the tire relatively healthy.
I bought a set of Michelins for my F250 several years ago because they were the “best”. The truck had a vibration after the new tires were installed but since they were Michelins I didn’t even think it was a tire issue. All four tires were out of round. ALL FOUR.
