Important Tire Tips for Your Customers
Help your customers get the most out of their new MICHELIN
®
tires by sharing these important tips and facts with them:
• Deeper tread tires on the rear axle provide better
handling, wet grip and water evacuation, thereby
helping avoid oversteer and loss of vehicle stability on
wet surfaces. Deeper tread tires on the front axle can
improve wet straight-line braking and stopping distance.
If only two tires are being replaced, Michelin generally
recommends installing them on the rear axle, in the
absence of a tire service professional's recommendation
or consumers' preference to the contrary.

• Proper tire inflation is important.
• Check air pressure and treadwear at least monthly and
always before long trips.
• Never exceed the load limits of the vehicle – doing so
can lead to excessive heat and wear that could result in
tire failure.
• Always be aware of road hazards, and always have tires
inspected if you roll over an object. Even if the tires
appear undamaged, internal damage is still possible.
• Be sure wheels are balanced. Recommend proper
alignment and stress the importance of correct tire
rotation at the proper intervals.
