Michelin Advantage Program

Just purchased 8 Michelins XRV 305-70R22.5 through the Michelin program. Everything went well. All 8 installed with Equal in each tire was $5619.21
  • Wow after reading this post I am glad I have a C, four tires installed $651.00, I had no ideal that the A's tires cost that much.
  • It is a fact that most companies who move operations to China do it to improve their profit, not give a consumer a better buy.
  • I recently had 6 installed (275 70 22.5 XZA2 Energy) for $3850 out the door - no FMAC program, that was their regular pricing. I had quotes ranging from the $3850 up to $5200 for the same tires from both sides of the border. The tires are made in the US.

    That's $702/tire installed, where did you purchase them?


    It's not the dealer that prices em, it's Michelin Advantage fleet pricing. I think TCI or Snyder actually installed mine, but pricing is the same at any Advantage dealer. You pay Michelin thru FMCA for the tire and Fed prices. All other labor/parts, you pay the tire installer.
  • I've used the Michelin program twice, 2~front...8~rear. Staight forward and easy. Got about $5400 invested for 22.5s. Some of the quotes I got from dealers was double that amount. Happy, but it still hurts.
  • Getting ready to put Toyo's on mine. Those Mitch's are expensive and probably made in China. I've got the Toyo's for $380 each on the vehicle.
  • That is about what I paid $4100 install $260 balance front and new valve stems (6) tires
