Latitude Tour Hp

I installed these tires on a DAIHATSU TERIOS II 1.5 4X4 in 2015, (third tire on the same car). When switching from the previous Dunlop grandtrek touring (quite happy, I did not prefer them again due to a lower marking on the EU label) I noticed a big difference in the behavior of the car. It became noticeably harder on bumps on paved roads (potholes, manhole covers, etc.). I was quite dissatisfied but I got used to it. The car is used as a family car mainly on the road. Off-road it is occasionally taken on vacations and excursions. On a winter excursion to the mountainous and snowy Karpenisi (Greece) with careful driving the tires performed satisfactorily (they have an m+s marking). The same in the summer on the Cyclades islands (Greece), on steep, rough dirt roads to approach isolated beaches. In general, there was no problem either on wet or dry roads (city, country roads, highways, etc.). They were changed after 6 years and 70,000 km not due to wear since they had more km to go, but due to aging. (I put Riken 701 in 2021, all the positives of Michelin + more economical and comfortable to drive.). In conclusion, with prudent driving, I was satisfied with the grip in all terrains and weather conditions. Also, the tread does not wear out, but the tire is not as comfortable as I expected. (The weight of the vehicle also plays an important role in the above). I would not prefer it again due to high cost and lack of comfort.

My tyres are original with the vehicle, just 5 years old and completed just under 25K miles. The remaining tread is excellent, but the tyre walls have cracked and deteriated. This has been bought to my attention as an 'advisory' on the MOT, with a recommendation to change these tyres as soon as possible. Have contacted the Michelin warranty department who have advised that this is 'normal wear' expected on a Michelin tyre. It is most certainly not on tyres manufactured by other manufacturers. I will not be purchasing Michelin tyres again.

These tires were on a new 2019 Ford Escape and driven easily by a senior. 40% was high speed freeway driving at 115km/hr-120.
They lasted to 54k km and I could have stretched another 60k km if I was not going into winter.
Very early tread wearout and I won't buy again. Also one tire belt failed so I bought a new set of 4 at 54k km.

These Michelin Latitude Tour tires ride well and are quiet. However tread wear on these OEM tires is terrible, 15,000 kms on them after they were supplied new on a Ford Escape and they are worn down from 11/32 when new to 5/32 remaining, 55% of the tread is worn off. My friend also had these Michelins supplied OEM on a Chev Equinox and experienced the same results, in one year of average driving from new his tires wore off to the point they had to be replaced, he wrote a very sharply worded letter to Michelin for all the good it did. In the fine print with your new vehicles paperwork Michelin has now stopped providing a tread wear warranty on these when they come OEM on a new vehicle. I don’t know what the difference is between when these are supplied new on a vehicle as compared to when you buy them as replacements but some people are reporting great tread life when they’ve bought these off the shelf.

Last for 11 years(2011-2022) as OEM on KIA Sportage 1.7 2011.
I drive them only from April-november. No garage, harsh sun every day. But on snow catastrophic. Had to buy winter ones. Now they are all cracked but I still drive them maybe few weeks untill I find new ones. When accelerate hard they slip a lot but overall very good tire. Expensive not affordable for change.
