{"product_id":"michelin-x-line-energy-t2","title":"Michelin X Line Energy T2","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a free-rolling trailer tire for line-haul work — long, steady miles under a truckload trailer. Michelin publishes exactly one usage for it, long-distance transport, and exactly one axle position, trailer. It is the dual-fitment tire; the wide-base single is a different product. It replaces the X Line Energy T. Michelin’s own positioning is that this is their most fuel-efficient dual trailer tire for truckload, long-haul transportation, and Michelin displays SmartWay verification for it. We quote it in three sizes: 11R22.5 in load range G at 144\/142 L, 11R24.5 in load range H at 149\/146 L, and 295\/75R22.5 in load range G at 144\/141 L.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe fuel story comes from a two-layer tread. The top layer is a mileage compound Michelin says controls tread stiffness and stress to reduce irregular wear. Underneath sits an ultra-fuel-efficiency base layer that Michelin says minimizes internal casing temperatures for low rolling resistance. Four wide circumferential grooves and micro sipes along the rib edges put biting edges across a broad contact patch; Michelin’s internal testing puts its wet stopping, new and worn, ahead of two leading competitor tires. Tread is 11\/32\" in all three sizes. The casing is built to be run again: curb guards and upper sidewall ribs that Michelin says help fight sidewall damage at docks and in yards, and a rectangular bead bundle protecting the casing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrailer axles only. Michelin publishes no steer and no drive fitment for this tire, so do not spec it up front, whatever a retailer listing may say. It is not a winter tire — no 3PMSF severe-snow symbol and not even an M+S marking — so keep it out of snow-traction duty. Speed symbol L caps it at 75 mph. Michelin’s application chart is line haul and nothing else; regional, urban and on\/off-road stop-and-go are what the deeper X Multi range is for. Michelin’s additional coverage is a limited casing warranty — the casing, not the tire — and it applies only to tires used in long-haul service and requires retreading by an authorized Michelin Retread Technologies dealer, so mixed duty can forfeit it. On sizes: Michelin no longer catalogues the T2 in 285\/75R24.5, so this model covers three of the four sizes we quote. It is also not RFID-equipped and not MEMS-ready, so it will not feed a tire-monitoring system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the axle job matters more than the badge, the Invovic FM591 is our factory-direct trailer tire in the same position, molded in Cambodia and offered in 11R22.5, 11R24.5 and 295\/75R22.5, all in 16-ply Load Range H. This Michelin is Load Range G in 11R22.5 and 295\/75R22.5 and H only in 11R24.5, so the two share a load range in one size. It is the opposite bet on tread: 19\/32 in the 11R sizes and 20\/32 in 295\/75R22.5, against this Michelin’s 11\/32. That is removal miles and scrub tolerance instead of rolling resistance, and it is the right trade only if the trailer is not being bought on fuel. The rest of what Michelin documents, the FM591 cannot answer: the Michelin Retread Technologies pre-mold program with named matching retread patterns, EPA SmartWay verification, and published test substantiation you can go read. Fleets retreading on an MRT contract, or that require a SmartWay-verified tire, should stay on the Michelin. Neither tire is made in 285\/75R24.5, so that axle goes to the Bridgestone R123 Ecopia, Firestone FT492, Goodyear Endurance RST, Yokohama BluEarth 109L or Double Coin FT115 we also quote. Put both on one quote and compare the two all-in delivered numbers when they come back.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Michelin","offers":[{"title":"11R22.5 \/ 14 Ply (G)","offer_id":53673436152084,"sku":"MICHELIN-X-LINE-ENERGY-T2-11R22-5-14","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11R24.5 \/ 16 Ply (H)","offer_id":53673436184852,"sku":"MICHELIN-X-LINE-ENERGY-T2-11R24-5-16","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"295\/75R22.5 \/ 14 Ply (G)","offer_id":53673436250388,"sku":"MICHELIN-X-LINE-ENERGY-T2-295-75R22-5-14","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1025\/9107\/0484\/files\/michelin-x-line-energy-t2_fa8f80c6-f9c5-4829-ac0e-70d2553a87fa.png?v=1787425286","url":"https:\/\/aurextire.com\/products\/michelin-x-line-energy-t2","provider":"Aurex Tire Co.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
