Red face Got new Tires...Michelin Cross Terrain

Just as an FYI I purchased some new tires, Michelin Cross Terrain. Like them so far, no real difference in road noise, seems to be a little better handling wise. Does anyone else have the Michelin Cross Terrain? Feedback would be welcomed if anyone has them.

They are excellent tires and worth every penny.

If you are looking for practical tires, and aren't afraid to drop some cash, you can never go wrong with Michelins.

Are they white letter or white outline lettered or are they just blackwall? I'm old school and gotta have at least white outline lettered on these sized tires.

I got them about 5000 miles ago. They're awesome! My truck just seems to roll longer and turns so much smoother...there's just so much less rolling resistance. Handling is much improved especially in the wet. Also, I've read some people getting as much as 80k miles out of these tires. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the black sidewalls but they look really slick on the LE rims (I have an 07 LE CC LWB 4wd). You made a great choice...can't go wrong with michelins...well worth the money.

Cheers for the feedback, will try and grab a photo and post. Very much a street tire with the advertised capacity for minimal off road. Considering I have had the truck since Sept 2005 and no dirt yet. Still might try a little of the So. Cal fireroad scene. I scored at Discount tire, $140.00 per tire. I think they may have messed up on the pricing. Anyway, thanks to one and all that chimed in.

You have the choice when they mount them, I went for the black lettering on the outside. You can have the white mounted outside if you choose to do so.
