Great Tires great service!

My 2016 Ford F250 came with Michelin tires. I've had them replaced by Sams twice now. Services always been terrific, and the longevity of the tires has been equal! I've used the road hazard warranty twice over the years and Sam has not let me down. I highly recommend Sams in their tires, no matter what brand you choose

Incredible tread wear

I really like these tires. Quiet, smooth and I don't spin on wet pavement. I have over 70,000 miles on them and they still look good. That's on a 2023 Chevy 2500 HD. I haul occasionally.

Great for Winters!

Incredible tire, Especially in NE Ohio/Western Pa winters I wish they made this tire in every size, tread life is freakin great, performed outstanding in deep snow and ice, if you got kids or commute in areas with deep snow and you’re really worried about safety, grip, and reliability. This is the tire. This is not ai lol 100% recommend. I drive a full size 22 Tundra.
