* Mileage Warranty Exceptions

Split fitments - If your vehicle has tires of different sizes on the front versus the rear axles, your tires cannot be rotated as recommended. Therefore, the mileage warranty on each rear tire will cover half the number of miles as the standard mileage warranty for that particular tire line.
ZP (Zero Pressure) tires - The maximum mileage warranty for ZP tires is 30,000 miles.

Standard Limited Warranty <br/>(All Michelin® Tires)
All Michelin® tires have a Standard Manufacturer's Limited Warranty, which covers defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the original usable tread, or for 6 years from date of purchase, whichever occurs first. See warranty for details

Less Than 30,000 miles

Comments about Energy MXV4 S8:

These came "standard" on my 2010 Ford Fusion. Loved the car right away - the ride was great and low road noise. I thought it was a great marriage between Ford and Michelin. So then we had less than 10,000 miles on them and were stranded in east Texas due to a blow out where the tire split the tread. Dealer replaced at no charge. Then 6 months later another tire did the same. Now - at less than 30,000 for the remaining 2 tires, I'm told that the wear is so bad I have to replace them. Tires are religiously rotated and pressure checked. In both "blow outs" the technicians/mechanics could find no evidence of a road hazard causing the failure. Additional evidence making this highly suspicious is two tires failed in exactly the same way on different roads and in different driving conditions.

Comments about Energy MXV4 S8:

I have aLexus ES350, and the MXV4 tires were put on in place of another brand when I bought the car. I have had 3 sets put on in the las 2 months. I have on 700 miles on the car. Each and every set has failed because of flatspotting. Going for the 4th set. What the heck is going on.

I drive every other day, and 10 to 15 miles each time. Lexus is telling me I don't drive the car enouigh. Never heard of such a thing. They flatspot even after on night.

Nobody seems to have the answer.

Original Tires 2005 Toyota Avalon

Comments about Energy MXV4 S8:

I have a 2005 Toyota Avalon Limited that I purchased new, I have rotated all 5 tires every 5000 miles. The car has a little over 40,000 miles on it, No rot after eight years, Tires have worn evenly, They are ready for replacement now, I'm puting another set of Michelins on it, My only complant is I think I should have gotten better millege out of them. I purchased a Ford Thunderbird new in 1992, rotated 5 Michelins on it every 5000 mile, I got 111,000 miles out of those tires, I guess this was a once in a lifetime thing.

OE [Vehicle Manufacturer] Sidewall Marking: MO = Mercedes-Benz
OE Code [Original Equipment Key]: F = Ford, H = Honda, K = Kia, L = Lexus, MA = Mazda, MB = Mercedes-Benz, N = Nissan, T = Toyota, V = Volvo, VW = Volkswagen

Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is for a tire only (i.e., excluding services such as mounting, balancing and tire disposal) and is applicable for the contiguous United States. Actual pricing may vary based on retailer, region, tire size and other factors. Retailers are free to set individual prices. Please check with your local Michelin tire dealer for pricing near you.

>> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
>> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
>> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.

WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.

DANGER: Never mount a 16" diameter tire on a 16.5" rim.
DANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim.

Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Exceeding the lawful speed limit is neither recommended nor endorsed.

For high-speed driving, additional inflation pressure and possibly reduced tire loading and/or upsizing is required. In the absence of specific recommendations by the vehicle manufacturer, use the following guidelines based on those in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organization Standards Manual.

For speeds over 160km/h (100 mph), load and inflation must be adjusted according to the table below.

H-Speed Rated Sizes:
Maximum Speed (mph) 100 106 112 118 124 130
Inflation Increase (psi) 0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0
Load Capacity (% of max.) 100 100 100 100 100 100

V-Speed Rated Sizes:
Maximum Speed (mph) 100 106 112 118 124 130 136 143 149
Inflation Increase (psi) 0 1 2 3 4 5 5 5 5
Load Capacity (% of max) 100 100 100 100 100 100 97 94 91
