Michelin LTX M/S2 245/70R17 110T AS A/S All Season Tire

Michelin LTX M/S2. FEATURES AND BENEFITS: Increased heavy load durability; All weather traction; Reduced fuel consumption; Longer lasting tread; Enhanced steering precision; . OVERVIEW: The Michelin LTX M/S2 is a highway terrain, all season tire manufactured for SUVs, and light trucks. Michelin offers a 70,000 mile treadwear warranty with this tire model.This tire offers excellent all weather traction, including in light winter weather. This superb traction is the result of the silica-enhanced tread compound and the specially designed tread pattern, both of which offer additional road gripping force. The model is also hydroplaning resistant, as the lateral tread grooves evacuate water from beneath the tire, offering a safer drive.Thanks to the manufacturer’s Green X Technology the tire has a reduced rolling resistance. The lowered resistance, in turn, lessens the fuel consumption and the CO2 emissions of the vehicle. This energy efficient improvement makes the tire both economic and environmentally friendly. The decreased rolling resistance also slows down the tire’s tread wear rate. Also contributing to the increased tread life is the equal distribution of the driving force, which prevents irregular wear on the tires. The even wear across the tread enables tire to be used longer.The tread pattern’s 3D Active Sipes Technology increase the tire’s steering precision and response time. With this improvement, the tire becomes easier to handle and control in all weather conditions.The LTX M/S2’s steel belt reinforced sidewalls enable the tire to carry and withstand heavy loads, making it perfect for the transportation of heavy loads. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
