Qty 4 Michelin X-Ice Xi3 185/55R16. One winter on them (about 2,000 miles.)
No better time than June to start thinking about how you're going to show off in front of Jeep drivers this winter.
These are sufficiently hardcore to drive a Miata with an open diff and no ABS through snow higher than the front bumper at stock ride height, but also do quite well in rain & slush, as well as the dry periods between snowfall, which was my primary criteria in selecting them based on reviews. Never got stuck once with them on the car.
These are they: Michelin X-Ice Xi3

Make me an offer. These were $465 new, so, $300ish?
