The nice lady at Michelin said that the tires have a maximum shelf life of three years. She went on to say that tires manufactured prior to 2017 have a 5 year warranty. Tires manufactured in 2017 and after have a 7 year warranty.

It is just a prorated tire warranty, which hardly seems relevant in a steer tire situation. I haven't read a single thread about tires giving any warning of failure that would allow you to take advantage of the warranty. If one does fail, the $800.00 or considerably less you might get from the warranty would be small solace after living through a blow-out.

My search continues for "fresh" steer tires!
