After around 15 months of ownership one of the front tyres developed a balance issue. I had it rebalanced however the tyre soon became unbalanced again so I put the spare on. The balance problem then went away for around a week. I then noticed that the other tyre on the front was developing a balance issue. After putting up with that for a month or so I decided to replace both front tyres with a different brand. The tyre shop identified that the foam that was inside the Michelin tyres (there to supposedly dampen the road noise) had come loose in both tyres and was bunching up inside the tyres causing the balance issue. This was very disappointing as I thought I was getting a premium tyre and wouldn’t have an issue like this. With this experience, and given that the tyres are still quite fresh, I would not purchase these tyres again.
