Michelin Tires - More Information
Michelin Total Performance™ is the result of our 125-year obsession with improving mobility. We take our findings from our global research center and from the toughest lab ever – motorsports – and apply it to your day-to-day tire. Find out how we can create a tire that covers all your needs in one.
Dedicated to Technology and Innovation
Our first scientist was hired in 1893. Even then we knew that Research and Development would be key to the evolution of the modern tire. Today, 6,000 R&D people strive to anticipate and meet your changing mobility needs through research in chemistry, physics, mechanics and other realms to develop new technologies and constantly test prototypes.
Established in 2014 in Findlay, Michelin's Global Technical Center is a worldwide center of excellence for tire science and technology deployed around the globe. Along with the continuous improvement of our tires, Michelin performs rigorous testing at our facility near San Antonio, Texas.
Motorsports is driving's toughest innovation lab, and we've been experimenting in it for over a century. The pressure is high. For each race, we need to deliver performance characteristics adapted to each racing partner and for different racing conditions. Afterwards, we examine how our findings could benefit more people. So you can be sure that if it can handle the racetrack, it will handle your drive.
