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.

Sidewalls on Michelin tires don't last as long as thread area, and worst on inside where the sun don't shine. I was told sorry no warranty! Stuck with the brand because of the wacky size on rear [4] and availability, they where probably 3/4 yrs. old and rig was stored in a warehouse out of the sun GO FIGURE.
