Not happy

Not happy with these tires way too much weight they use 5 1/2 half ounces or more. Took it back they just moved them from the inside. The inside rim truck has a vibration now it didn’t help by moving the weights to a different place from the inside rim to the outside would not recommend this tire vibration of seats are shaking was not like this before about the tires had original tires bought the truck new Has never been wrecked. Wheels are not bent just poor quality tire they’re telling me this is normal.

Good quality tires

This is the second set I have purchased, the first set was bought for a 2016 Ram which lasted around 90k kms and the second set was for my Current 2022 Ram. These tires are quiet while maintaining good grip on the road.

Good tires but I have an issue

The tires look great, seem to handle fine and tread depth looks deeper than some. (Maybe it just looks that way) Now, a couple of issues: I had them mounted on my original rims which were running the previous tires just fine. When I first start driving there is considerable vibration at 100kph for about the first 10 kilometers. Then it goes away and they are fine. I had the tire shop rebalance them and I have the same issue. They don't know why this happens so I guess I'll live with it. The second thing I should mention is that they are quite noisy on the road. (Noisier than my winter tires) I'm guessing that probably my set is just unusual as I didn't read anything about the vibration issue when I was researching the tires.

I recommend this tire

My trucks original tires were Goodyear Wrangler. They were all right but these are the best I've had them before in the past. Quiet handling is far better. More durable just overall a much better tire and Canadian made maybe! I am very happy with my Michelin tires!

Round black things.

Very happy with my tires on my f150. Much quieter and smoother than my previous set with a more aggressive look.
