  • Tire Question

    Posted by Roy on August 18, 2022 at 6:54 pm

    My coach has Super Single drive tires. Michelin 455/55 R 22.5 X one X Z U S. I am looking for a Michelin Rep’s contact info so I can ask him if I have a problem. The manufacture date is 03 20. I have had them on about 14 months. See the photo. Do I have a problem?

    It’s a thin piece of rubber below it is not cracked.

    I bet that scared the hell out of you when you saw it. It looks like a failed tire.

    That don’t look right. Get the rep.

    The only # I have is:

    Michelin Nationwide service program – ph# 800-TIRE-911.

    I just saw this message…. not certain if you still need help, but Michelin Consumer Care is 888-622-2306.

    How did you select the X One XZUS? It is a “meaty” tire, designed to go on refuse trucks that run wide base. We normally recommend the X One Multi Energy T. The cracking I see may be a result of highway speeds.

    I thought Jon and/or Tom had the direct number for a Michelin customer service manager.

    pmeisenh–

    How do the tires below (that you mentioned in another post)

    compare to the X One Multi Energy T that you mention in this post?

    XZA2 Energy (available at OE for Prevost, and at their service centers. A Michelin dealer will not have this offer)

    X Line Energy Z (most common in the replacement market for coach bus). Most fuel efficient replacement offer, starts at 17/32″
