Dry rot

Comments about Cross Terrain SUV:

We bought our ford Escape three years ago and it came with a set of Michelin Cross Terrains. After three years of haveing the tires rotated on a regular basis and the vehicle passing NYS inspection in February it was pointed out this week during a scheduled maintenance that all four tires had excessive cracking in the outer tread. With 42000 mi on a 65000 mi tire I find this unacceptable. Living in the northeast I haven't been to impressed with their handling in winter weather.
I noticed we also have Michelins on a vechile we purchased used last October and these tires as well have signs of cracking\dry rot. From internet posts this appears to be a common problem.
I've had Michelin's on other vehicles and have never been impressed with their wet weather handling.
At this point I will not likely purchase Michelin tires again and I will advise freinds and family away from them.

Comments about Cross Terrain SUV:

At 80,000 miles now and about to replace tires. Tires were trouble free for 5 years on my 4WD Nissan Titan. A bit tricky this past winter in snow but down to 3-32nds of tread. I would buy again, but moving up to the LTX's. Doubt I will ever buy another brand again. I did keep my tires slightly over vehicle recommendation for inflation and got nice even wear. Rotated religiously. Tires saw heat, snow, off road, sand, heavy loads, and lot of trailer hauling. Tires spent a lot of time in upstate NY winters.

1 See Michelin Owner's Manual for complete description.

The sizes and/or speed ratings listed may vary slightly from the specified OE size shown on the vehicle placard. Your local Tire Dealer, as a trained professional, will provide the required assistance to install the tire listed by: 1. Notifying the owner if the replacement tires are different in speed rating than the OE tires and the maximum speed capability of the vehicle is limited to the lower speed rated tires. 2. Determine if any inflation pressure adjustments are necessary with the alternate listed size.

OE Code [Original Equipment Key]: AC = Acura, F = Ford, GM = General Motors, L = Lexus, T = Toyota
DT = Different Tread Design

* Passenger sizes used in Light Truck/SUV applications have reduced load capacity. This will differ from the maximum load branded on the tire sidewall.

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.

Government UTQG Ratings do not apply to light truck sized tires.

>> 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.

S-Speed Rated Sizes:
Maximum Speed (mph) 100 106 112
Inflation Increase (psi) 0.0 1.0 2.0
Load Capacity (% of max.) 100 100 100

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

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
