Dashing thru the Snow...... XC90 2004

posted by  someone claiming to be Samurai on  Wed Jan 28 07:31 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Michelin Synchrone 1 review from the Tire Rack website: "These tires came as OEM on our 2004 XC-90. They're reasonably good tires on wet and dry roads; quiet with good handling characteristics. Would never purchase them if you experience any and I mean any snow. These are perhaps the worse performing tires in snow that I have ever had on a vehicle. While they would probably be fine on the West Coast, Id avoid them like the plague anywhere else.<"/i>

I have Arctic Alpins on my V70 and Dunlop Winter Sport M2s on my Acura. No problem. I was passing all (and I mean ALL!) the AWDs and 4x4s on the way to work this morning. :)
