5 out of 5 stars review
Replaced original equipment tirres on our Subaru Outback. These tires were recommended by our service people and I think they gave us good information. They seem to ride smoother and quieter than original tires and if the expected treadwear is as we were informed we will be extremely happy with them. I feel that they are a great tire for the price.

- 5 out of 5 stars review6/20/2026Noticed quieter & smoother ride immediately but that may just be the difference between my Hankook’s with 5/32” tread vs. these with 10.5/32” tread.
Nice new tires
Joe1747Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review7/2/2026I could feel the difference! Car felt more stable on the turns and handled great on gravel and asphalt.
Dependable and great warranty
Ann67Originally posted onmichelinman.com - 5 out of 5 stars review6/23/2026Rides like a dream on EQUINOX V-6 . Tread wear even with rotation . Holds up to unforeseen pot holes. 2nd set wouldn’t run anything else .
2nd set on SUV both in town and hwy. I only run Michelin on all my vehicles . They have proven best ride and performance .
