Review Summary

Reviewers are sharply divided, with most reporting premature tread wear and dangerous failures—tires reaching unsafe levels at 8,000 to 25,000 miles despite warranty promises, with blowouts and sidewall ruptures at highway speeds raising serious safety concerns. Many customers express betrayal, stating Michelin's reputation has declined and vowing not to repurchase. However, some praise the quiet, smooth, comfortable ride quality, particularly on OEM installations. Overall, durability issues and safety anxieties dominate customer sentiment, overshadowing positive driving experience feedback.

Foam Insert Separated From My Primacy AS TO on my 2025 Tesla M3.

2025 Tesla M3 with ~ 16.5K miles. The cylindric foam insert supposedly glued to the inside of the tire to reduce sound, fully separated. The foam rolled into a ball causing significant shuttering at 70-75 MPH. I went to Big O tires for balancing thinking that would resolve the problem. Unfortunately, no. Back to Big O. This time they removed the tire discovering the foam no longer attached to the tire. Who knew tires had foam inserts? Tires handle well but don't think I'll repurchase these Michelin's. First time I've experienced any issues with Michelin's.

Great EV Tires

Great tires. These came with my new Ford Mustang Mach-E back in 2022. It's been almost four years now. I have put over 75,000 miles on this, and still have some thread left

Great tire - Very poor wear.

2021 Ford Explorer ST came with these OEM. Ride, noise , braking and traction are great. Fuel efficiency is hard to compare without changing tires because all cars have different numbers. Problem is that only after 26,500 miles my dealer said I needed new tires. I am pushing the bald tires past 32k miles now. Hoping to get to at least 35k miles. Road conditions have been pavement. Drive less than 30 miles each day. Driving habits are not aggressive and half freeway and half residential. Tire inflation maintained and monitored by car computer. Probably going to replace soon with Toyo AT III as they were great on my Ford Ranger pickup.

Solid tires

Came with these on my 2022 Equinox. I'm getting ready to trade the car but really loved these tires. I'm amazed at the bad reviews. Trading my car with 50.000 and still have original tires, with tread left and very little wear.

I recommend this tire

Self seal is amazing

These have been AMAZING tires. We got these when we ordered our 2022 ford explorer. It is 2026 & they have been so great. I got a bolt the size of my pinkie in my tire & it was a 1 inch bolt. I had to use pliers & twist the bolt out & there was no air loss. Ive also found a screw & a nail in them.

Absolute horrible tires. Do not buy!

Horrible durability. I drove only 150 days on gravel roads and all my truck tires have many large chunks taken out of the tread. I now have a leak. These are horrible tires. Tread is way too soft. I will not buy Michelin again.
