What Customers Are Saying:
I purchased a set of 4 new, high-performance Michelin tires for my 2004 Acura TX in December, 2009. Given the record-setting snowfalls in the DC area, I was cautious about driving in the snow without a 4WD vehicle. I have to say, I LOVE my tires. They outperformed my expectations. I was able to drive through snow-covered streets and feel safe on my tires. I would recommend them to anyone. They were expensive but well worth it. Thanks, Michelin, for a terrific product!*

July 6, 2009 We just wanted you to know that the HydroEdge tires we bought now have 200,000 miles on them. We need new ones and that's what we're replacing them with. WOW!!! Keep making good tires.*

- Pam Double

March 24, 2009 Just wanted to say how satisfied I am with my purchase of Michelin tires. I bought a set of 4 HydroEdge P225/55R17 tires back in August of 2008. Since then, I have been through rain sleet, and snow and all of the time the tires were great for traction. I also feel safer with the new tires knowing that these tires (with proper care) should last me several years. I look at this as an “investment” rather than just a “cost.” I was also very pleased on the speed of the rebate that was offered when I purchased these tires. You have gained my confidence in a company.

May 10, 2008After buying a new car in 2003, I put on a set of the MICHELIN HydroEdge^® tires. After driving over 93,000 miles on them, we replaced them with a new set. I think MICHELINS are the BEST of tires great handling and great ride. Recommend to all.*

- Thomas Lowe

April 23, 2008I purchased the MICHELIN HydroEdge^® tires for my 2003 car. If I would have known how well the car would handle with MICHELIN tires...I would have thrown out the tires that originally came with the car! The difference is so amazing that I went to my car dealer and told them to recommend them.*

- Derek Brown

February 2, 2008I bought MICHELIN HydroEdge^® tires because of the 90,000-mile warranty. These tires will probably outlast my car. The handling is excellent, even in Florida's frequent thunderstorms. The braking distance is superb, especially in an emergency stop. Just yesterday, I just barely missed hitting a truck that pulled out. The best part is the smooth, quiet ride. Thanks for keeping me safe.*

- Robert Graves

February 1, 2008I have approximately 100,283 mile on my MICHELIN HydroEdge^® tires. I still have 1/8" in the front and 1/4" in the rear. I would like to know what Michelin thinks of that. Thank you.*

- C. Anthony Wells

January 7, 2008I just replaced the original tires on my car with MICHELIN HydroEdge^® tires. I love 'em. The handling and the ride is fantastic! I don't want to trade my car in for a new one now! Great job! I am going to buy a set for my wife's car.*
