NOTE:your vehicle manufacturer may provide additional tire warranty
coverage over and above what is provided by Michelin. Consult your
vehicle owner ’s manual for further information.
NOTE:Some MICHELIN® Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires can
only be mounted on special SH-M (Symmetric Hump - Modified) wheels.
These tires bear the special SH-M designation, molded into the sidewall
of the tire, next to the ZP designation. DO NOT MOUNT A TIRE WITH
THE SH-M DESIGNATION ON THE SIDEWALL ON A STANDARD
WHEEL. DOING SO VOIDS THIS LIMITED WARRANTY AND COULD
CAUSE THE TIRE TO BECOME UNSERVICEABLE AT LOW OR ZERO
PRESSURE, RESULTING IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
Treadwear – Mileage Warranty Coverage for MICHELIN® Passenger
and Light Truck Tires
MICHELIN® passenger and light truck tires are covered by a manufac-
turer ’s limited warranty for treadwear. For the mileage warranty associ-
ated with a specific tire line, please see your Michelin tire retailer or visit
us at
www.michelinman.com/promise. Some vehicles come from the
vehicle manufacturer with “split fitments” – meaning different size tires
on the front and rear axles. Because these tires cannot be rotated as
recommended by Michelin, the mileage warranty on each rear tire will
cover half the number of miles as the standard mileage warranty for that
particular tire design. Michelin Self-Supporting Zero Pressure (ZP) tires
have the same mileage warranty as the standard tire line of which they
are a part, up to but not exceeding 30,000 miles. DOT-approved compe-
tition tires (e.g., MICHELIN® Pilot® Sport Cup tires) are excluded from
any mileage warranty. MICHELIN® Winter tires must be used during
winter months only, defined as a period beginning on or after September
1st of a given year and ending no later than April 30th of the following
year. MICHELIN winter tires require documentation of the timing of the
installation and removal of the tires each winter to maintain coverage
under the limited warranty for treadwear.
An important reminder:
No tire manufacturer can guarantee you a certain number of miles from
a given tire. Driving habits, driving conditions, road conditions, and
vehicle maintenance all play a part in the tread life of a tire. If a tire does
not reach the warranted mileage, and the owner of the tires has complied
with the terms and conditions of the warranty, Michelin will replace the
tires as described under “How Replacement Charges are calculated”.

HOW REPLACEMENT CHARGES ARE CALCULATED
Passenger and Light Truck Tires
A tire which becomes unserviceable due to a condition covered by this
workmanship and materials limited warranty will be replaced with a
comparable new MICHELIN® tire, free of charge, when 2/32 nds of an
inch (1.6 mm) or less of the original tread is worn, (or 25% or less,
whichever is more beneficial to the user) and within 12 months of the
date of purchase. Mounting and balancing of the tire is included.You pay
the cost of any other service charges and applicable taxes.When more
than 2/32 nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of original tread has been worn (or
more than 25%, whichever is more beneficial to the user) or after
12 months from the date of purchase, you must pay the cost of a
comparable new MICHELIN® passenger or light truck replacement tire
on a pro rata basis. The retailer will determine the charge by multiplying
the percentage of the original usable tread worn, by the current selling
price at the adjustment location or the price in the current MICHELIN®
Base Price List, whichever is lower. This list is based on a predetermined
price intended to fairly represent the actual selling price of the tire.Yo u
pay the cost of mounting, balancing and any other service charges and
applicable taxes.
Treadwear
A tire meeting the conditions for pro rata replacement, which wears evenly
across the tread, down to the tread wear indicators (2/32nds of an inch
tread remaining) within 6 years of the date of purchase, and before
delivering the warranted miles of service, will be replaced with a compa-
rable new MICHELIN® tire based on mileage received. The participating
MICHELIN® tire retailer will determine the charge by multiplying the
percent of mileage received by the current actual selling price at the
adjustment location or the price of the tire in the current Michelin Base Price
List, whichever is lower. This list is based on a predetermined price
intended to fairly represent the actual selling price of the tire.You pay the
cost of mounting, balancing and any other dealer services and applicable
taxes.Tires which wear out evenly before delivering the warranted mileage
will be replaced on a pro rata basis only if:
1. You are the original purchaser of the tires, you own the vehicle on
which they were originally installed, and the tires have been used only
on that vehicle;
MICHELIN

Furthermore, a tire’s speed rating does not imply that vehicles can be
safely driven at the maximum speed for which the tire is rated,
particularly under adverse road and weather conditions or if the vehicle
has unusual characteristics.
Michelin® highway passenger tires that do not have a speed symbol on
the sidewall have a maximum speed rating of 105 mph (170 kph). Light
truck highway tires that do not have a speed symbol on the sidewall of
the tire have a maximum speed rating of 87 mph (140 kph).
MICHELIN® Winter tires that do not have a speed symbol on the
sidewall or tires with Q symbols have a speed rating of 100 mph
(160 km/h). Winter tires with a speed symbol have a maximum speed
rating in accordance with the symbol.
The speed and other ratings of retreaded tires are assigned by the
retreader and replace the original manufacturer ’s ratings.
IMPORTANT: In order to maintain the speed capability of the vehicle,
replacement tires must have speed ratings equal to or higher than those
fitted as original equipment (as indicated on the vehicle tire placard or
owner ’s manual). If tires with lower speed ratings are fitted, the vehicle’s
handling may be affected and the speed capability of the vehicle will be
lowered to the maximum speed capability of the replacement tires as
indicated in the following table.
REMEMBER...High speed driving can be dangerous and may damage
your tires.
AND...When driving at highway speeds, correct inflation pressure is
especially important.
MICHELIN

When rotating tires with a directional tread pattern, observe the arrows
molded on the sidewall which show the direction the tire should turn.
Care must be taken to maintain the proper turning direction.
Some Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) may not recognize
that a tire has been moved to a different position on your vehicle. Make
certain that your TPMS system is reset, if necessary, so as to correctly
identify the location of each tire on your vehicle. Refer to your vehicle
owner ’s manual or your vehicle dealer.
Determine whether rotated tires require tire inflation adjustment as front
and rear position tire pressure may vary according to the vehicle
manufacturer ’s specification due to the actual load on that wheel
position. Some vehicles may have different sized tires mounted on the
front and rear axles, and these different sized tires have rotation
restrictions. Always check the vehicle owner ’s manual for the proper
rotation recommendations.
Full-size Spare
Full-size spare tires (not temporary spares) of the same size and construc-
tion should be used in a five (5) tire rotation. Always check the inflation
pressure of the full-size spare immediately before incorporating it into
rotation. Follow the vehicle manufacturer ’s recommended pattern for
rotation, or if not available, see a qualified tire technician.
Replacement of Two (2) Tires
It is recommended that all four (4) tires are replaced at the same time.
However, when only two tires are replaced, the new tires should be put
on the rear. The new tires, with deeper tread, may provide better grip and
water evacuation in wet driving conditions.
CUSTOMIZATION OF TIRES, WHEELS, OR SUSPENSION ON
SUVS AND LIGHT TRUCKS
Due to their size, weight and higher center of gravity, vehicles such as
SUVs and light trucks do not have the same handling characteristics as
automobiles. Because of these differing characteristics, failure to operate
your SUV/truck in a proper and safe manner can increase the likelihood
of vehicle rollover. Modifications to your SUV/truck tire size, tire type,
wheels or suspension can change its handling characteristics and further
increase the likelihood of vehicle rollover. Whether your SUV/truck has
the original equipment configuration for tires, wheels and suspension or
whether any of these items have been modified, always drive safely,
MICHELIN

avoid sudden, sharp turns or lane changes and obey all traffic laws.
Failure to do so may result in loss of vehicle control leading to an accident
and serious injury or death.
TIRE ALTERATIONS
Do not make or allow to be made any alterations on your tires.
Alterations may prevent proper performance, leading to tire damage
which can result in an accident. Tires which become unserviceable due to
alterations such as truing, whitewall inlays, addition of balancing or
sealant liquids, or the use of tire dressing containing petroleum distillates
are excluded from warranty coverage.
REPAIRS WHEREVER POSSIBLE, SEE YOUR MICHELIN® TIRE
RETAILER AT ONCE
If any MICHELIN® tire sustains a puncture, have the tire demounted
and thoroughly inspected by any Michelin tire retailer for possible
damage that may have occurred. A tread area puncture in any MI-
CHELIN® passenger or light truck tire can be repaired provided that the
puncture hole is not more than 1/4” in diameter, not more than one radial
cable per casing ply is damaged, and the tire has not been damaged
further by the puncturing object or by running underinflated. Tire
punctures consistent with these guidelines can be repaired by following
the Rubber Manufacturers Association (RMA) recommended repair
procedures.
TIRE REPAIRS
Repairs of all tires must be of the combined plug and inside patch type.
Your MICHELIN® PAX® System tires must be removed from the wheel
for inspection prior to repair. Plug only repairs are improper. A tire
should be removed from the rim and inspected prior to repair. Any tire
repair done without removing the tire from the rim is improper. An
improperly repaired tire will cause further damage to the tire by either
leaking air or allowing air, moisture and contaminants to enter the
structure of the tire. An improperly repaired tire can fail suddenly at a
later date.
Never repair a tire with less than 2/32 nds of an inch tread remaining. At
this tread depth, the tire is worn out and must be replaced.

SERVICE LIFE FOR PASSENGER CAR AND LIGHT TRUCK
TIRES INCLUDING SPARE TIRES
The following recommendation applies to passenger car and light truck
tires. Tires are composed of various types of material and rubber
compounds, having performance properties essential to the proper
functioning of the tire itself. These component properties evolve over
time. For each tire, this evolution depends upon many factors such as
weather, storage conditions, and conditions of use (load, speed, inflation
pressure, maintenance etc.) to which the tire is subjected throughout its
life. This service-related evolution varies widely so that accurately
predicting the serviceable life of any specific tire in advance is not
possible.
That is why, in addition to regular inspections and inflation pressure
maintenance by consumers, it is recommended to have passenger car and
light truck tires, including spare tires, inspected regularly by a qualified
tire specialist, such as a tire dealer, who will assess the tire’s suitability for
continued service. Tires which have been in use for 5 years or more
should continue to be inspected by a specialist at least annually. Con-
sumers are strongly encouraged to be aware not only of their tires’ visual
condition and inflation pressure but also of any change in dynamic
performance such as increased air loss, noise or vibration, which could be
an indication that the tires need to be removed from service to prevent
tire failure. It is impossible to predict when tires should be replaced based
on their calendar age alone. However the older a tire the greater the
chance that it will need to be replaced due to the service-related evolution
or other conditions found upon inspection or detected during use.
While most tires will need replacement before they achieve 10 years, it is
recommended that any tires in service 10 years or more from the date of
manufacture, including spare tires, be replaced with new tires as a simple
precaution even if such tires appear serviceable and even if they have not
reached the legal wear limit. For tires that were on an original equipment
vehicle (i.e., acquired by the consumer on a new vehicle), follow the
vehicle manufacturer ’s tire replacement recommendations, when speci-
fied (but not to exceed 10 years).
The date when a tire was manufactured is located on the sidewall of each
tire. Consumers should locate the Department of Transportation or DOT
code on the tire which begins with DOT and ends with the week and year
of manufacture. For example, a DOT code ending with “2204” indicates
a tire made in the 22nd week (May) of 2004.
