Research and development
Michelin has been the driving force in the development, innovation and technology of new tires and support services in the agricultural industry. Our leadership translates into cost-savings for you. Here's how:
 - The exceptional quality of our radial tires can't be achieved without considerable time spent in our research labs and on our testing grounds. Our engineers, chemists and design specialists work with sophisticated methods and equipment to make sure our products perform when they should - anytime you need them - and where they should - in fields across North America.
 - Today Michelin works closely with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to design the right radial tire to optimize the performance.
     
Tests
Your tires undergo rigorous evaluation before they ever operate on your machines. The tests are done in Laurens - SC and in Western Europe.
Punishing testing proves the Michelin Ag radials' capability to perform at low pressures and high deflection, day after day, season after season.
We thoroughly evaluate our tires and carefully study the subtle differences in a continuous effort to offer top performance, reliability and the highest quality. Through extreme testing and advanced technology, we gather data that helps us design tires known for their endurance and value.
In other words, we push our ag tires to the limit so you can depend on them when the job gets tough, or the day gets long.
That's why farmers who rely on powerful machinery are taking advantage of the engineering and high-performance of Michelin Ag radial tires.

     

Manufacturing facilities
Michelin manufactures agricultural tires in seven countries, mainly in Western Europe.
