What is the best tire type for highway driving?
Choosing the best type of tire for your vehicle comes down to your lifestyle and needs. If your driving consists mainly of commutes on paved roads like highways or freeways, then an H/T tire may be the most economical and comfortable choice. If you don’t plan on going off-road, and want a tire that’s great for dry and wet road conditions, then an H/T tire is probably a good option.
Do MICHELIN tires really last 80,000 miles?
They are designed to wear well and provide the same driving experience between mile one and mile 50,000. Michelin’s mileage warranties also tend to be robust with 40-80,000-miles being the average included in your tire’s purchase. Continental typically offers about 90% of Michelin’s performance at 80% of the price, making it a more budget-friendly option. However, Michelin’s longer tread life (70,000-80,000 miles vs. Continental’s 30,000-45,000 miles) can provide better long-term value for high-mileage drivers.
