  • 75% Longer Wearlife & Outstanding Traction Winter After Winter3

    The MICHELIN® X-Ice Xi2 tire lasts 75% longer than the leading competitor without affecting other performances. The depth of the Cross Z Sipes II and the Step Groove design help provide enhanced mobility, particularly in deep snow, winter after winter.3

  • Winter Control With Confidence

    A wide tread contact patch generates acceleration and braking power, as well as cornering traction, for outstanding winter maneuvering. Supporting knobs help provide stability on wet and dry roads in the winter, helping the X-Ice Xi2 tire deliver the best overall winter traction, along with superior ice performance.2
