About This Tire

The Michelin X-Ice Snow SUV 235/55R20 is a winter tire, designed for SUV, van, and light-duty pickup drivers who prioritize reliable winter traction and year-round stability in cold weather conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on ice grip, snow evacuation, and maintaining flexibility in severe climates through advanced rubber technology.

The tire features Michelin's FleX-Ice 2.0 compound with inclusion technology that creates micro-roughness on the tread surface for enhanced grip on both snow and ice. The continuous V-shaped directional tread pattern incorporates wider grooves compared to previous generations, engineered specifically for improved hydroplaning resistance and slush performance while maximizing snow-to-snow traction. Driver feedback points to strong performance across wet and dry conditions, with notable comfort and predictable handling characteristics throughout daily winter driving.

Compared to all-season tires, it prioritizes maximum cold-weather traction and ice performance over year-round versatility. Overall, it's a solid choice for SUVs and light trucks used primarily for winter driving in regions with regular snow, ice, and cold temperatures.
