MICHELIN® Premier™ A/S tire
Michelin introduced the MICHELIN® Premier™ A/S tire with revolutionary new EverGrip™ technology, which provides drivers with exceptional levels of safety even as their tires wear down. Even when worn, the MICHELIN Premier A/S with EverGrip™ technology stops shorter on wet roads than the leading competitors' brand new tires1.
Available this spring, the MICHELIN® Premier™ A/S tire combines hidden grooves that emerge as the tire wears down, expanding rain grooves that widen over time to continue to evacuate water and a unique rubber compound for increased wet grip.
"The MICHELIN Premier A/S tire represents a significant breakthrough in automotive safety," said Scott Clark, chief operating officer of Michelin North America's passenger and light truck tire division. "With our truly revolutionary advancements in tire technology, we are able to directly address the effects of tire wear on traction and have been able to break the traditional paradigm."
