Michelin has a new one out this year too but I believe the Michelin's cost more so they are not on my list. I tried their 2019 version (xi2?) in-between DMV2's and that only lasted 1 day.
I'm in Michigan and I'm looking at new winter tires for my 1/2 ton truck. What would you guys do... $705 for Blizzak DMV2 tires or $900 for the new IcePeak model?
My last set was DMV2 and they lasted me 7 years. No complaints about their performance.
