Sorry to say I am a michelin fanboy. They still last with the little checks. You sound like a ford or dura max driver getting all offended. When I put the 19.5s on my fuzion they will be BFG who is owned by Michelin but $140 cheaper per tire. The next set on the truck will be Michelins.hammer21661 wrote:
Aaah, it's a Michelin they all do it but if there is a recall get new ones.
What an utterly ridiculous, inaccurate statement. Where do you get this junk? :h
Yes, there is a major recall of the Michelin M/S's, check your production dates and then see your local dealer for a nice new set of Michelin M/S 2's which replace the 20 year old design of the original Michelin M/S. I got six brand new M/S 2's mounted and balanced for free a couple of months ago. Not many companies would have the integrity to stand up and replace 1.2 million tires free of charge.
I put a set of M/S 2's on my truck a couple of years ago and just like my new set on the C they are the best tires I've ever owned. BTW: they come with a 70,000 mile tread warranty from a company that clearly stands behind their products.

Obviously we agree on the "If there's a recall get the new ones". What I objected to are blanket statements that typically feature the word "All". Pretty difficult to be anything close to accurate when one uses phrases like "they all do it".
Yep, been a Ford guy for the last 16 years but even when they are (foolishly), bashed I don't get "all" offended. :B
As always.... Opinions and YMMV.
