Re: Michelin tires on Accord 2002
I had OEM Michelin MXV4+Energy tires on my 99 Accord EX. They were terrible
in the rain and light snow. I had them rotated at the recommended times and
they lasted about 25,000 miles. I had the alignment checked as they wore
uneven. I replaced them with Toyo Spectrums. I'm closing in on 60,000
miles. I'll get 65,000/70,000 out of them before I have to have them
replaced. They've been great on the highway, snow, rain, and they've been
quiet. They ran about $55.00 a piece. I was looking at Michelin X-Ones but
they were to expensive at the time. I'll probably investigate other tires
but will compare them to my all to my Toyo's. Most Toyo tires have a 500
mile or 45 day trail period in which you can return them for a full refund
if you're not happy with them. No I don' work for Toyo I'm just really
impressed with the tires.
