Great tire
Tires are great and behave like a summer tire, my only concern is they’re noisy on the highway. Was nice to see a Michelin tire actually made in France.
Pneus d’hiver remarquables
Très bonne tenue de route, assez silencieux, très bonne prise dans la neige et très pneus qui bonne tenue sur la glace, répond bien sur la route en hiver, dans les courbes et sur les arrêts. Je les recommande.
Super fonctionnalités
Bon pneus, silencieux belle adhérence et contrôle hivernal
Great ride
My Michilin snow tires (on their own wheels) give me a smoother ride then my high end summer rubber
Go to winter tire for a performance car
Great winter tires for a performance car (2026 VW GTI Autobahn). They are quiet, comfortable. The car handles lioke it was on rails on twisty mountain roads and Interstates. Excellent for snow and ice winter conditions and excellent when roads are dry or wet (unlike other winter tires).
Good performer low life
Great tires, got them with my car and put maybe 35,000kms on them as I do not drive often. Sadly these tires are already nearing the wearbar and are getting quite dangerous at around 5/32-6/32.

Ice traction seriously degrades at 6/32nds tread depth remaining.
I live in Calgary where winters have constant thawing and freezing cycles, making road conditions treacherous at times. These are very capable tires when new or slightly worn and have decent tread durability. At approximately 35,000 Kms with timely tire rotations and maintaining pressures regularly, they are now worn down evenly to 6/32nds of an inch remaining (approx. 50% worn). I was hoping to get another winter out of them, but I no longer feel safe driving on icy surfaces as they don`t grip nearly as well as they used to. Perhaps my expectations are unreasonable, but I am a bit disappointed in their deterioration in traction, stability and performance at this stage.

A1 reco
Brilliant tires. Not too discernible from my PS4S Michelin performance tires. A1 handling and relatively quiet. My fave winter setup.
Good traction and great control. Feel sporty in winter.
Very good on wet, cold or icy pavement. Not so good in deep snow.
