What tires are better than Yokohama?
For many drivers, Michelin tires justify their premium price through extended tread life, superior performance retention, and excellent wet-weather handling. While the initial cost is higher, the longer lifespan (up to 80,000 miles compared to Yokohama’s 50,000-70,000 miles) can result in better long-term value. Typically, tires have a lifespan of 6 years in service or 10 years from date of manufacture, whichever comes first. Various factors can impact this general guideline. Tire longevity is influenced by, for example, the quality of the tire, proper tire maintenance and storage, driving habits, and road conditions.
