I've had MXV4's on my crossover that the X1 is replacing for about 5 years. I had 3 sets of various tires that were garbage IMO prior to the MXV4 (Conti Extremes is the only one I remember for sure). I find the snow traction to be extremely good on them until 70% of the tread is used then you have to be more careful on ice/snow in mountains. On my X1 I plan to get a second set of tires/wheels and run summer performance and dedicated winter tires but if you're looking for a single set all year I'm a fan of the MXV4's as they've been good to me. No opinions on the others, they could be good as well. I also plan to go non runflat as well -- I don't feel I will be driving at speeds (post ED) that blowouts would cause a wreck and I feel that's the only big advantage to them.
