Anyone have experience with this tire - looks to be very new to the market. Apparently it is to replace the Graspic.
I'm looking at snows, and I have it down to the Michelin Xice Xi3, and the Dunlop WinterMaxx. I considered the General Altimax Arctic, but I can get the Michelins for the same price and they are supposed to be quieter than the Generals.
The tread on the Dunlop looks good for snow, but it's the lack of test data available for it that is pushing me away from it. On the other hand, the Michelin has good ratings, but not so good ratings in deep snow and slush. I live on an uphill street and often have to drive up it in deep snow for the Accord, so this is giving me reservations about the Michelin.
Any thoughts?
