On what tire date code did you go into production with the new front tire tread design? People are trying to avoid buying the older tires that have the vibration and noise issues, and it's not always easy to determine looking at the tread pattern.

Need specific date of tread redesign going into production

Hi Jason Thank you for your review. We are very sorry you are experiencing issues with your MICHELIN Commander III tires. Vibration can have several causes, such as incorrect mounting, incorrect balancing, worn motorcycle components, etc. Please bring your bike in to a local dealer for inspection or contact Michelin Consumer Care at 800-346-4098 to verify your fitment.

Horrible tire! Lots of vibration! Horrible quality control if any. How a tire can be this bad and leave the factory is a scathing review of the company. Terrible and makes me sad that I can't ever trust a Michelin tire again.

Vibrating rubber!

i picked the commander 3s based on the reviews and what i thought was the warranty. Ive only had the tires on just over 2 years, purchased around may of 2021 and less than 10k miles. front tire needs replaced and the back looks fine. ive been on hold now for an hour waiting to talk to someone about the warranty and still am as i type this review. I would not recommend anyone buy these tires. I guess the Michelin customer service is the same no matter what division they are.
