Advantages: Very good grip in all weather, especially in the wet. Disadvantages: The cost and fact that they wear faster.
Two French brothers called Edouard and Andre Michelin, owned a rubber factory. One day, a cyclist with a punctured pneumatic tyre arrived at their factory. This tyre was glued to the rim, and It took over 3 hours to remove it and repair the tyre, which then had to be left overnight to dry. The next day, they took the repaired bicycle into the yard for testing. After several hundred Meters, the repair failed. Despite this setback, they were still enthusiastic about this pneumatic tyre, and proceeded to made their, own, which didn't need glueing onto the rim.
In 1891, they took out the first patent for a removable pneumatic tyre. The rest as they say, is history.
I was lucky enough to buy a car with these fitted, and I can say the amount of grip is brilliant. They do cost more than most tyres, and the noise is slightly louder, but ...

Advantages: Well known brand Disadvantages: Go out of shape.
trips to the dealer to find the cause, we were advised by a friend in the trade that Michelin are notorious for going out of shape. They wear unevenly and become unbalanced.
Aparently its the heat that does the damage. You would not expect that on our roads.
What they do give is excellent grip in the dry. I did not like them in the Wet and had an accident in my Fiesta that had Michelins on it. Much prefer Pirelli for the wet conditions.
The good points with michelin is that they are hard compund tyres. They will last and last you, if you can handle the ride quality.
They do have a wide range of tyres. Not limited to the common sizes but at the same time dont cater for the larger low profile customers. These are left to specialist manufacturers.
The ranges cater for different customers.
Pilot is the most common range. You ...

Michelin Energy
A tyre designed to reduce running costs and respects the environment with these tyres on your car is said to use less fuel and last longer than other brands.
On a wet road they help make a shorter stopping distance making them a super safe tyre to have on your car.
These tyres are designed for, city cars, MPV and family cars.
These come as standard on my model of car so have been using this the 2 and a half years I have had it, I have found them to be a brilliant tyre, very long lasting and keeping grip right un-till the end of their lifespan. They also wear evenly so if you buy a set as long as none become damaged they should all be ready for being replaced at around the same time. They are not at all road noisy and do not pull the car around at all. They are very good in the wet maybe no as good as they are ...
