ABOUT THIS LIMITED WARRANTY
As the original purchaser of a Michelin® passenger or light truck tire,
you are covered by all the benefits and conditions (subject to the
maintenance recommendations and safety warnings) contained in this
booklet. To ensure your understanding of and compliance with the terms
and conditions of this warranty, please read it carefully. It is essential
that you also read and understand the safety and maintenance

Definitions
The “legal life of the tire” is six years from the date of purchase or the
life of the usable tread, which is defined as the original tread worn down
to the level of the treadwear indicators - 2/32nds of an inch (1.6 mm) of
tread remaining, whichever occurs first. The date of purchase is
documented by a new vehicle registration or tire sales invoice. If no
proof of purchase is available, the date of manufacture, as molded on the
sidewall, will be used.
Uneven wear is defined as a tread groove difference of 2/32nds of an
inch or more on the same tire.
WHAT’S COVERED AND FOR HOW LONG?
Workmanship and Materials

life of the original usable tread, or six years from date of purchase,
whichever comes first. At that time, all warranties, express or implied,
expire. Replacement will be made in accordance with the terms and
