I’m extremely disappointed with the durability of my Michelin tires. I purchased them just about a month ago, expecting the quality and reliability the brand is known for. Unfortunately, after a very normal driving experience, one of my tires already has noticeable sidewall damage. This was not due to reckless driving, but from a common road condition that any tire should reasonably withstand. For a premium-priced tire, I expected much better durability and resilience. It’s frustrating to invest in a trusted brand only to experience damage so quickly after purchase. Tires are supposed to provide safety and peace of mind, and right now, I’m feeling the opposite. I am hoping Michelin will stand behind their product and consider a replacement or some form of support, as this experience does not reflect the quality I believed I was paying for.

not a durable tire. 2765 miles on developed a sidewall bubble that meant the entire tire needed to be replaced after michellin attempted to bland road hazard instead of manufact defect and during mechanics showed steal not intact and bubble was close to catastrophic bursting that may have lead to loss of control or accident. not readily available to be replaced been waiting 2 weeks. mechanics verified no road savage curb damage or accident or rim or tire cabbage to support anything but manufacturers defect with less than 0.1 mm tread used. look for better tires.

I am 66 years old and have been buying Michelin tires since i was in my 30 s excellent tires even better now that they last longer .You can find cheaper tires,but i do a lot of high performance driving in dry and wet very good sence of security excellent road feel,I believe them to be the best and honestly believe you get what you pay for.

These are excellent "all-around" tires that provide reasonable traction in rain/snow/ice, allowing me to go through up to 6 inches of snow this winter without difficulty. This is surprising, given that my Cadillac CTS4 Performance Coupe is quite low, and has staggered tire sizes. The rear "steamrollers" should NOT do well in the snow, but yours do. On dry pavement, the ride is as smooth as can be expected in a low-profile tire, and handling is quite good. It is not as good as a dedicated, high-performance summer tire but, again, it is a great compromise.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend these tires. This review comes after driving 50,000kms, city and long distance highway driving in an AWD vehicle. Tire size is 265/40R/21. Maybe this tire is not ultimately suitable for a low profile vehicle, I'm not sure. As I often read reviews before making a purchase, and I did before purchasing this tire, I feel compelled to write a review with my experience. In my opinion, this tire lacks stability and handling ability. They've always felt slippery in rain and though the first year was somewhat bearable in snow, since then they've been poor. On dry surface they roll into (vs. over) any groove in the road (think crack in the road that has been filled with tar); the tires feel like they are sinking into the tar. They've never felt like they have enough air, though I've repeatedly checked the level. Today, I felt like I was 'skating' while driving in 2cm of snow. No traction whatsoever. I have always put Michelin tires on my cars and have always been happy with them. Sadly, that hasn't been the case with this one. I will consider another Michelin tire, I just can't recommend this one.

Excellent tire. The compound is sticky and aggressive while still offering good traction in cold weather. The tires appear to be well made with a very still XL-rated sidewall. Handling is extremely precise and predictable with perfectly controlled behavior when approaching the limits of cornering grip. The tires are very comfortable and pretty quiet for a performance A/S tire. While I cannot comment on tread life or highway stability just yet, no doubt those will meet expectations as well.

Bought these tires for my "New to Me" 2012 Lexus LS460. Ride improved greatly. These tires are also very quiet. While my car isn't a sports car, it does have a top speed of 150+, so I needed a "Z" speed rating. While it doesn't like to be pushed, the grip does feel more stable. Over all highly impressed with these tires.

Amazing! Street and performance. Michelin Tires always deliver. They are a bit pricey but well worth it! Safe and Savy.

HAD A BUBBLE DEVELOP WHERE THE TIRE METS THE WHEEL RIM AND HAD TO REPLACE IT. THE TIRE HAD A LITTLE OVER 23,000 MILES ON IT AND CAME ON MY C8 CORVETTE STINGRAY FROM THE FACTORY. GIVEN THE PEFORMANCE OF THE C8 THIS COULD HAVE ENDED TRAGICALLY.

For an all season tire, it is good on a dry, cool, onramp for lateral g-force, but traction loss is inevitable during medium parking lot to road acceleration in warm weather (30°C).
