Default Re: Tire Recommendation

After 30 plus years in the automotive business, I've sold and used just about every tire brand you can name.
Michelin's are a good tire but ,in my and many others opinion , the passenger and light truck tires are highly overrated. ....There is a huge difference between the Pass/LT tires and the commercial heavy duty truck tires.
my own experiance with Michelins on my vehicles has been one of premature sidewall deterioation and cracking and rapid degradion of wet traction . I'm talking 3 to 4 years and under 30k miles on motorhome and trailer tires.
Everybody has their favorite tire ,just like we all run Mickeys, Hoosiers ,Goodyears or Phoenix's on our race cars. ...Same goes for our tow rigs.
