How long do tires really last in South Florida?

There is no single tire lifespan for South Florida drivers. Mileage, age, maintenance, exposure and damage all affect when a tire needs attention. A treadwear warranty does not promise a certain number of years of safe service.

Check the exact manufacturer guidance

Use the recommendations for your vehicle and tires. For example, Michelin recommends annual professional inspection after five years of use and replacement by ten years from manufacture, while vehicle guidance may call for an earlier replacement. These are not reasons to keep a damaged tire in service.

See Michelin’s tire replacement guidance and the instructions for the brand fitted to your vehicle.

Age is only one part of the assessment

• Inspect tread and visible condition.
• Have recurring pressure loss, bulges, cuts or exposed cords assessed.
• Follow the vehicle’s cold-inflation and maintenance instructions.
• Ask about a tire with an unknown history, even if its tread looks deep.

Compare tires for the way you drive

Tell the shop about your commute, loads, road use and priorities such as wet-road performance, comfort and budget. Compare the actual tire models and installed price. No price tier or mileage claim by itself establishes the best choice for a particular vehicle.
