Michelin tyres
Michelin is the brand most Dubai drivers name first when they think of a tyre that lasts. It costs more up front, but its tyres routinely outlive cheaper sets by 20–30% on UAE roads, which narrows the gap on cost per kilometre.

About Michelin
Founded by brothers André and Édouard Michelin in 1889, the company introduced the radial tyre to the market in 1946 — the design every passenger tyre uses today. It is now one of the two largest tyre makers in the world, with factories across Europe, Asia and the Americas, and is an original-equipment supplier to Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Toyota.
Strengths
- Long tread life — among the best in independent wear tests
- Low rolling resistance, which helps fuel economy on long commutes
- Consistent wet braking even as the tread wears down
- Quiet, refined ride on touring ranges
Worth knowing
- Highest prices in the market, especially in 19"+ SUV sizes
- Sport ranges trade some tread life for grip
On UAE roads
Michelin's silica compounds stay stable in high temperatures, and its Primacy and Pilot Sport ranges are the most common premium fitments we see on Dubai sedans. For Land Cruiser and Patrol owners, the LTX and Primacy SUV+ handle heavy loads on hot highways well.
