smooth ride but wears too fast. V

These came stock on my 23 F150 XLT. Only lasted 36000 miles and they were down to 3/32nds! I have always used Michelin tiers, but usually Defenders. These came stock and I was hopping that they would last like the Defenders do. They rode very smooth and handled well, but just wore way too fast. Just replaced with Defenders LTX M/S2 and I know these will last as I have defenders on my wife's car and after 55k miles they are still going strong.

Poor Tread Wear

I have a similar problem: terrible tread wear. I have a 2021 f150 power boost with less than 22,000 miles. These tires have been rotated twice by the Ford Dealer to get" better trad wear"-HUH! Not much tread left to deal with upstate NY winters. The truck was purchased in May 2021. The good things are that they are quiet and give a comfortable ride, nevertheless, they are too pricey for the service they give.

Great on dry and wet pavement

These tires are great for dry and wet pavement quite and good fuel mileage. Snow not so much. Had to dig out my 4x4 F-150 which was stuck in about 6 inches of snow. Had truck in low gear 4x4 with rear locker engaged and truck would not move with these tires.

worn out too quickly

I recently purchased a 2020 F150. When I saw that it had Michelin tires i was pleased. Now with only 33500 miles on the truck one of the tires is worn down to the wear bars and the others are not far behind. Disappointed that these tires need to be replaced so soon. 275/65R18 116t I think these are supposed to have a 55,000-mile tread wear warranty.

Terrible tread life

These tires came on my 2021 f150. One of the reasons I purchased the specific trim truck that I did is because it came outfitted with Michelin tires….I figured that they would have a long life. This has NOT been the case. At 30,000 miles, these tires are just about at the end of their life. They are at about 3/32 to 4/32 tread left and are already feeling unsafe on wet roads…I cannot even imagine letting these continue to wear down to the wear indicators, although I don’t think it will take much longer. On top of that, the Michelin warranty states tires that come Oem on vehicles are not covered by treadwear warranty! These tires are indeed quiet on the road and smooth. But the tread life is absolutely terrible. With them wearing so fast, cost per mile make these a terrible value tire in my opinion. Now I’m shopping for new tires for a 2year old truck with 30k miles…..never had to replace tires so soon on a vehicle before. Disappointing (and expensive!).

disappointed

Came on my 2019 F150. They ride smooth and quiet but they follow the cut grooves in concrete roadways. Not a good feature for towing a trailer. Haven't tried them in snow. I've always liked Michelins, this is the first set I've ever had any complaint with

SMH BOOO

Extremely disappointed. 27k on these tires and the tread is literally falling off in chunks. You wouldn’t believe it. I worked in the tire industry for over a decade and I’ve never seen anything like it. Worst of all, NOBODY seems willing or even able to tell me why a 40,000 tire isn’t automatically covered under its warranty. Furthermore, if a dealership is a Michelin retailer, why are dealerships not partnering to fix their grave mistake. I’m lucky to be alive. My truck is now stranded, which means I’m stranded. We are 45 mins from the closest dealership and I’m telling you, by law, no dealership would be able to release a vehicle from a service department as they are far from road worthy. And nobody seems to care. It’s funny how recalls on tires are typically subject to brand. But, look a lil deeper and Michelin does them by tire sizes.

Shot before 30,000

2021 F-150 purchased new w/ Primacy XC from factory. Followed recommended inflation and rear tires are shot well before 30,000. Fronts will also not pass inspection in NC. I do tow regularly (5K lbs) well within the limitations of the truck but apparently these are not the right fit for towing. I have michelins on most every other truck/cars I have but Primacy is not the ticket for towing apparently. They are, however, very quiet but I'm sadden I have to replace these at such low mileage compared to manufacturer spec'd warranty.

Don't last, Squeal, Chunks coming off.

This tires are OEM in my 2021 F150 PowerBoost. They ride silent, comfortable, good traction but they DO NOT LAST, the compound does not feel like rubber, it is more like a flexible plastic. Now at 30,000 miles they SQUEAL during any 30+ tuns. Always running recommended pressure and alignment is perfect. The latest? CHUNKS are coming off the shoulder of the thread, like someone cutting clean with a knife. And no, I don't go off-road!! Owned Michelin my whole life, this is a dissapointment.

They do not last

Good ride, but terrible thread wear. Don't expect them to last much over 30,000 miles. I'm at 65k miles on my 2018 f-150 and already went through 2 sets of Primacy XCs. Did not go with Primacy for my 3rd set. I should not have to change my tires 3 times before I hit 100,000 miles.
