• Michelin HydroEdge: a premium all season tire for Passenger Cars.
  The Michelin HydroEdge Tire is a premium versatile tire designed to run in all seasons for family coupes, sedans and minivans. The Michelin HydroEdge’s silica enhanced tread compound on the outer side is made with full-depth sipes, which give exceptional grip on dry and wet roads hence making it an all weather tire. The unidirectional tread design is coupled with special dual circumferential center grooves called HydroChutes to provide water evacuation quickly from the tire’s contact points. This feature helps in increased grip and in avoiding hydroplaning under wet driving conditions. The HydroEdge derives its strength and durability from its embedded polyester cord body and twin steel belts. These unique design features give the tire an 85000-mile tread life warranty, the highest for any Michelin tire. Michelin's Durablack rubber technology on the sidewall of the HydroEdge tire keeps the tire sharp and black for a longer span.
