Edge Posted November 6, 2015 Report Posted November 6, 2015 I don't need new wheels and snow tires myself right now, but I want to put a vote of confidence in for the Michelin X-Ice tires. 2 years ago, approaching the winter of 2013, my "awesome in bad weather" MINI was in the body shop for a long, slow repair endured during a serious accident I suffered earlier that year. Since the accident happened, I was able to drive my old 1995 Mustang GT around all spring, summer & fall... expecting my MINI would be repaired by winter. Such was not the case. Faced with: having to drive my Mustang all winter long (had it for 10 years prior to buying my MINI)... stuck with summer tires on the car... remembering just how bad it is in the snow, even with snow tires from 10-20 years ago... I knew I had to buy a new set of snow tires for my Mustang, just to get through the winter while I continued to wait for my MINI to be repaired. So I did a bunch of research, reading lots of reviews, including some winter tire round-ups... ...and I ended up buying a set of Michelin X-Ice Xi3 tires, which were some of the highest rated across all categories, and my Mustang needed every bit of help it could get. You see, V8 RWD cars without traction control, and with most of the weight of the car in the front make for terrible snow cars! Well... these Michelin X-Ice tires were nothing short of AMAZING. They completely transformed the car in the snow... I have never felt so sure-footed & confident in my Mustang in the white stuff before... and I used to have dedicated snow tires on it in the late 90s & early 2000s, too! They are fantastic snow tires. They will get you through almost anything, and will turn your MINI into a tank in the snow. :top: "Mr. OEM" - 05 JCW (TK, GPIC, SS, GPTA, R56 RSB, StBr, R56 BBK, GPWhls, SV, RS, R56 GSI, IES, StrWhl, GK, HG, LBIT) MCS, HB/HB, Packs: 1, 2, 3 & 4.
