In the tire business, Michelin has been around for over 100 years, and it is one of the largest tire companies in the world.
It also owns the BF Goodrich brand, which focuses on SUV and performance tires, and the Uniroyal brand, which caters to budget-conscious consumers.
As a company with a long history of innovation, Michelin receives consistently high marks for quality, and it has a strong environmental ethic.
There are three categories in which Michelin Tires, Inc. has been awarded the Golden Wrench Award, Car Talk’s top accolade.
A Michelin is an all-season grand touring tire with outstanding performance throughout the year, regardless of the season.
It comes with a tread compound designed to handle all kinds of weather, including dry, wet, and winter weather, and a rubber compound that remains flexible in cold temperatures.
There is even a three-peak mountain snowflake rating (3PMSF) available, which is something you do not find on every all-season ski.
Along with the specially formulated rubber, the tread pattern also has steep angles to funnel water away from the contact patch so that hydroplaning is reduced, and traction is enhanced.
A two-ply polyester casing reinforced with two steel belts and polyamide reinforcement improves the high speed performance and overall stability in dry weather.
Aside from providing a quiet ride, the tires also have Michelin’s PIANO noise reduction tuning, which has a tread pattern that decreases airborne noise.
There has been a Michelin brand for quite a long time, which makes it a brand you can rely on. It is possible to be assured that the company will stand by its products and you can be sure you will know what you are getting.
Michelin tires continue to be developed with the latest technologies to improve their fuel efficiency and environmental impact while improving their overall performance.
There is also a wide selection of tires to choose from, so you can be sure that you’ll find the one that’s perfect for your car and your driving style.
