Michelin X-Ice Tire
|
Season: Winter Tires Car Type: passenger Description:
Michelin X-Ice is a passenger tire for use in wintertime. Succeeding the Winter Ice tire model, it delivers an exceptionally high level of safety and control over your vehicle’s performance either it is wet, dry or snow-covered road.
Michlen has equipped this tire with its new Adaptive Progressive Stiffness Technology that makes it possible to combine tread resilience with stiff tread block foundations and hence to achieve optimal balance between ice traction and steering precision.
The APS technology prevents tread blocks from deformation while ensuring tread softness as well as even load distribution over a contact patch area, which is a key feature for safe driving in wintertime.
The X-Ice tire features dense siping on its tread blocks. There’re a lot of zigzag-shaped sipes that thanks to their peculiar shape provide for numerous biting edges to ensure a firm grip on ice- and snow-covered roads. That’s why the tire delivers excellent wintertime performance even though it’s not equipped with studs.
The tire is compounded from silica-based rubber that operates well under a wide range of temperatures including sub-freezing ones. The tire also shows low rolling resistance which results in lower fuel consumption and hence a lower level of CO2 emissions.
