”SAFETY, ENVIRONMENT, PURCHASING POWER, WE ALL HAVE SOMETHING TO GAIN FROM MORE TRANSPARENCY”


Already presented in Vienna in 2018, Michelin’s approach known as LLP, ”LONG LASTING PERFORMANCE” ,is at the heart of the Group’s action in the service of consumers.

Many manufacturers design safe tyres up to the wear indicator (1.6 mm).

But there is nothing to prevent the marketing of tyres whose braking distances will deteriorate very sharply over the kilometres. This lack of a rule on minimum wear performance can lead professionals and users to remove tyres before their legal wear limit.

Michelin supports the implementation of regulations that will meet major challenges for safety, the purchasing power of motorists and environmental protection.

MICHELIN CONSIDERS THAT EVERYONE IS ENTITLED TO REQUIRE SAFE TYRES FROM THE FIRST TO THE LAST KILOMETRE

MOTORISTS REGULARLY ASK THEMSELVES TWO QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR TYRES:

Am I in a safe condition with my tyres?

When should I change my tyres, to be sure they are safe?

Today, without a test on worn tyres, there is no answer...

Studies show that neither the different rankings established for new tyres nor the tread depth of the tyres can give an idea of their performance over time.

To know the real performance of used tyres, you have to test them!

However, the majority of tyre manufacturers, car manufacturers or consumer associations mainly focus their attention on tests carried out on new tyres.

In fact, as soon as a tyre is mounted on a car and drives, it starts to wear out, and the more worn it is, the more its performance changes.

Some performance improves with wear, such as dry braking and fuel consumption. However, wet braking is the main safety performance that degrades, sometimes very severely, as the tyre wears, so it is a safety performance that should be systematically tested.
