WHAT WILL MICHELIN DO?
Workmanship/Materials
If a tire is covered, and 2/32nds of an inch (1.6mm) or less of the original
tread is worn (or 25% or less, whichever is more beneficial to you), and it
is within 12 months of the date of purchase, Michelin will, free of charge,
replace your tire with a comparable new MICHELIN
®
replacement tire,
mount the tire, and balance the tire. You must pay the cost of any other
service charges and applicable taxes, including PAX Gel/Gel 3 packs.
If a tire is covered, and more than 2/32nds of an inch of original tread has
been worn (or more than 25%, whichever is more beneficial to you), or it
has been more than 12 months from the date of purchase, Michelin will
replace the tire with a comparable new MICHELIN replacement tire on a
pro rata basis. This means that you will be responsible for paying a portion
of the cost. The Michelin tire retailer will determine the portion for which
you will be responsible by multiplying the percentage of the original usable
tread worn, by the current selling price at the adjustment location or the
price in the current Michelin Base Price List, whichever is lower. You also
will be responsible for paying in-full the cost of mounting and balancing
