They have crushed walnut shells embedded in the rubber compound for extra grip and I'm very pleased with them.
I have X-ice 3 on my Tucson and they are great. My brother also has them on his Tucson, he does daily highway drives and he loves them.
I purchase michelin tires because they are used on airplanes, the space shuttle, and formula one cars (formerly).
And of course better tires - upgraded to Michelin Premiers for best suite of AS characteristics.
I bought Michelin PSS due to everyone online telling me to and HOLY SHIT. Best tires ever
If you don't need deep snow traction, go with Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4. I run them on my sports cars. Excellent cold weather and rain traction. Quiet. Good in light snow and slush.
Xice3 for me. Giant difference.
+1 to the Nokian's if you just need one tire. Personally, keep the stock tire and get some snows for winter use. Been using the Michelin X-Ice3's and they are fantastic and a hell a lot cheaper than the comparible Hakka R series.
I chose these tires because I put them on my 2016 Tucson last year and they are phenomenal.
My first set of marketed LRR tires were Michelin Energy MXV4+ on my MKIV Golf. Admittedly they were great tires in dry and wet until they had some miles on them and went to hell in a handbasket.
