Here are the models and functions of Michelin tires: 1. Energy Series: Economical, durable, quiet and comfortable, suitable for small and medium-sized cars with 14-18 inch rims. The Energy Series is Michelin's main economical and durable tire. The XM1+ is positioned as economical and durable, while the XM2 Toughness is positioned as durable and safe. Compared with the previous two, the MXV8 has better comfort and quietness, making it more suitable for medium and large-sized cars. 2. Primacy Series: Quiet and comfortable, fuel-efficient, safe, and with good handling, suitable for medium and large-sized cars with 15-19 inch rims. The Primacy Series is Michelin's main quiet and comfortable tire, mainly including the Primacy LC Bo Yue, Primacy 3ST Hao Yue, and Primacy HP. The LC Bo Yue is positioned as quiet and comfortable with fuel efficiency, while the HP is positioned as quiet and comfortable with strong handling performance. The latest Primacy 3ST from Michelin focuses on safety, quietness, and comfort. 3. Pilot Series: High performance, handling, and safety, suitable for high-performance models with 14-21 inch rims. The Pilot Series is the representative of Michelin's high-performance tires, mainly including five patterns: PP2, PS2, PS3, PSS, and CUP2. These four tires are positioned as high-performance and high-handling, but they also have some drawbacks, such as excessive tire noise, poor comfort, and a wear index of around 300, resulting in lower durability. 4. Latitude SUV Series Latitude Tour HP: Off-road, comfortable, and wear-resistant, suitable for SUV models with 15-22 inch rims (excluding 21 inches).

With years of experience in car repairs, I've handled many Michelin tires. Common models like the Primacy 4 are designed for daily driving, focusing on comfort and quietness with excellent road vibration absorption. The Pilot Sport 4S is perfect for sports car enthusiasts, offering exceptional grip and quick cornering response. The CrossClimate 2 is an all-season option with great wet safety performance and stable braking in rain or snow. The Latitude Sport is ideal for SUVs, known for its durability and strong grip on off-road terrains. Choosing tires depends on your vehicle type and usage scenario. For city commuting, the Primacy is recommended, while the CrossClimate provides more peace of mind for weekend trips. Remember to regularly check tire pressure and wear to extend lifespan and save costs. Overall maintenance advice includes a professional check-up once a year.

My favorite for car modifications is the Michelin high-performance series. The Pilot Sport 4S performs exceptionally on the track, with responsive acceleration and high grip limits; the Primacy family, such as the Primacy 4, focuses on comfort and smoothness but lacks the excitement of the Sport series; the CrossClimate models don't slip in the rain and are reliable in snow. These tires suit different driving styles—choose the Sport series for aggressive racing, and prioritize safety models for daily commutes. When modifying, consider appropriate tire width and size to enhance overall vehicle performance. Maintenance is straightforward—avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight to prevent aging.

For daily commuting with a family car, safety and cost-efficiency are key. The Michelin CrossClimate tires are suitable for all seasons, offering excellent wet grip to reduce skidding risks; the Energy Saver model significantly improves fuel efficiency, cutting annual fuel costs. Remember the simple classification when choosing models: Primacy is ideal for comfortable driving, while CrossClimate handles variable weather conditions. Regularly rotating tire positions extends their lifespan, and selecting the correct size prevents abnormal wear that could affect handling.

What causes shaking when braking at 60-80 km/h?

The following are the reasons for shaking when braking at 60-80 km/h: 1. Tire deformation: It is necessary to check whether the front wheel alignment angles and toe-in meet the requirements, and adjust if they are out of specification; lift the front axle and rotate the wheels to check the static balance of the wheels and whether the tires are excessively deformed. If deformed, they should be replaced. 2. Encountering bumpy roads: This is because when the car is driving, the ball joints of the tie rods may be worn and loose, or the rubber sleeves at the joints may have fallen off. Additionally, the tires may have become irregular due to wear. The car should be sent to a professional repair shop for inspection, and the damaged parts should be replaced. 3. Braking too hard: In general, excessive or frequent braking may cause the brake discs and brake pads to overheat and deform when cooled, leading to steering wheel shaking. Usually, the symptoms can be resolved by replacing the brake discs and brake pads.
