Em, you say why not michelins on trucks and SUVs. Well my personal experience is that on my Toyota pickups and Chevy suv's they have consistantly been done at 25k miles. Any yes all rotated correctly. I just traded in a Tundra with a costco set of michelins on it. The dealer dinged me $400 because the tires needed replacing with just a tad over 25k miles on them. I knew it and split the cost of new tires with them. I would say over the years I have had about six sets of michelins on these rigs with similar results. So I am done. There are so many better choices for truck and heavy suv rigs. I am not talking about the crossover rigs. I do not consider them an suv.
This is my experience of which I have had first hand.
Thanks for the reply. I will say my experience is the exact opposite. Great handling, ride, miles, awesome overall service (LT, LTX, AT, etc).

| I have also had great service with Michelin truck tires. I rotate mine every 6K to 8K miles and check the tread depth for any problems that may show up. I got 118K miles on the first set. I am on my second set and none of them needed weights. I have never experienced that in all my 60 years of driving. The tread seems to be wider and picks up gravel a lot easier.

| I love General tires and have a great experience with both the Grabber (truck) and Gmax (car) tires. My new truck has Falken Wildpeaks and they performed well in a hell of a blizzard while driving across the top of the country. |
