MICHELIN TIRES | TIRE BUYING GUIDE
When you think about tires, chances are Michelin is one of the brands that comes to mind, even if you aren’t a gearhead. Michelin has been producing top-of-the-line tires since 1889 and is trusted by the biggest names in the car industry as an OEM option for anything from family SUVs to the hardest, track-focused supercars. Michelin’s dedication to cutting-edge tire technology means that you no longer have to choose between driving performance, safety, fuel efficiency, longevity, and comfort.
Michelin Tire Categories
Michelin offers tires in these categories: all-season, performance all season, touring all season, summer, performance summer, on/off-road, all terrain, all terrain/all season, highway terrain all season, and winter. Whether you are looking to put some new tread on your Overlander or need to replace the original tires on your luxury sedan, you can’t go wrong with Michelin tires.
Average treadwear of Michelin tires compared to the industry average across all brands. According to the US Department of Transportation’s uniform tire quality grade (UTQG), treadwear numbers refer to the expected life of a tire, with a larger number signifying a longer expected life; you’ll find them stamped into the side of tires. Treadwear is only one factor to consider when buying tires. Also look at warranties, customer reviews, handling and grip, and braking responsiveness.
