This was confirmed when I got new tires last Sept. by the tire dealer.

Ah.... thanks for the info.

Marketing cost and brand reputation from many years ago. Michelin used to be the best tire available, but that is no longer the case. However Michelin still prices based on that long ago reputation. Toyo, Yokohama, Hankook, Bridgestone, Firestone all produce quality tires.
