💡 Is the Michelin X-Ice Snow SUV 275/60R20 a Good Tire?
The Michelin X-Ice Snow SUV 275/60R20 is a winter studless ice and snow tire designed for full-size SUVs and light trucks. It delivers strong snow and ice traction with reliable wet performance thanks to Michelin's V-shaped directional tread pattern and specialized winter compound. Ride comfort is above average for a winter tire with relatively low road noise, though tread life is shorter than all-season alternatives due to the soft winter compound. Rated Excellent by TireRack based on 266 consumer surveys, it excels in cold weather conditions but requires seasonal changeover and storage when temperatures consistently exceed 45°F. Currently priced from $334.76, it is available through major online tire retailers.
