Latest Group Test Results
2013 Auto Bild SUV / 4X4 Tyre Test - 5th of 9 tyres
- Positive - Extremely low rolling resistance, good aquaplaning results
- Negative - Poor traction on wet grass, long wet braking
2013 Auto Review Sports SUV Summer Test - 3rd of 11 tyres
- Overall - The Michelin Latitude Sport was the only N rated tyre on test, meaning it is approved by Porsche for OE fitment on the Cayenne in the test. In the dry the handling is excellent, with quick steering and good traction. Handling in the wet is a little behind the top two, but good aquaplaning results keep the wet score high. Moderate comfort, these tyres are for those who want to get the most out of dynamic driving.
2010 Auto Zeitung 4x4 Tyre Test - 2nd of 8 tyres
- Overall - Fantastic dry grip, surprisingly good offroad performance

Questions and Answers for the Michelin Latitude Sport
2016-05-25 - What is the average mileage you can expect out of a new set of new Michelin Sport tyres ?
I drive a Peugeot 3008 which has done 24000 mls and I have been told that the tyres should
now be replaced.
Should I be getting more miles from this brand of tyre or is what you would expect ?
Tyre wear is very driving style and load dependant, but 24,000 miles sounds about right for the Latitude Sport on your vehicle, if not a little on the low side.

Fitted to BMW X3 3.0 Diesel and great for long and fast Autobahn drives.
Cornerering is not as good Dunlop SP1 fitted before.
Increasing tyre pressure on Rear Axles wheels improves handling alot.
Wear after 15000 Miles is incredibly low-

I rack up 35-40,000 miles a year, tyres are a high yearly cost and the reason I write this review is because I have been so impressed with this set of Michelin’s
I normally get premium tyres, continental or the like, if I’m above 120k miles the car will be changed at 150k so I have purchased budget tyres towards the end of its life.
£150-175 a corner for premium is average over the years, continental have always been good but I could buy 2 in a year or 25k on the fronts (on Audi TTS and BMW M3 it’s as low as 15k)
These Mitchlins we’re just shy of breaking the 70k mark and they were not down to the indicator, it’s just autumn has arrived and for the millage I do new tyres are safer in the wet.
Which comes onto the next point, Mitchlin did adverts on tv a few years ago about wet braking, I never thought much of it but I can honestly say not once did they aqua plane, braking on the motorway at speed in the wet is like stopping in the dry... I have just replaced all 4 with Michelin’s again at £840, more then any other Tyre on the market but it’s the old saying, buy cheap, buy twice.
I do document all my spend on cars, petrol, tyres... and to back that up, over the last 6 years and 3 cars the cost per mile just on tyres is 0.006 for most, 0.007 on BMW M3, 0.004 for this set of Michelin does not sound a lot but it adds up to 27% saving.

Rear pair on a crv have done 50000 miles from new, 3.5mm left on nearside, 4.5mm left on offside, very happy with the Wear.

Probably one of the most expensive tyres you can buy for a Honda HRV, the performance is good but I didn't expect to change them at 15,000 miles and they have gone extremely noisy, I was a michelin fan but not anymore I don't mind the price but would of expected another 7/8,000 miles more out of them.

I bought a new Honda CRV in June 2015. Wow, I have done in excess of 35,000 miles on this original set of Michelins. Combination of Motorway and A roads driving, work, leisure and towing. Very impressed with Michelins. 3/4 mm left. Highly recommended.
