Why choose the MICHELIN X MINE tyre?
Boost the productivity of the world's largest wheel loader.
Explore Michelin technology and innovation designed to support your business, reducing your costs while respecting the environment.
Productivity
Improved mobility and productivity (1)
Delivers improved mobility and productivity thanks to 1.5 times the tramming speed of the 70/70-57 Firestone® SRG DT LD L4 bias ply tyre.
Robustness
Excellent protection and wear resistance.
The steel cables found in the MICHELIN X MINE radial tyre provide a robust architecture, resulting in outstanding endurance under the harshest mining conditions.
Tyre life
Lasts at least 41% longer on the front axle, measured in hours.(2)
Experiences 10° C cooler temperature in the internal chamber for increased tyre endurance.(3)
Radial construction provides tyre strength and protection.

Product Legal Information
(1) Based on the Firestone Technical Bulletin reference number BATO-OTR-TB-006-240409 (GLT Tramming Recommendations, Row 4 of Tramming Guidelines Chart), using ambient temperature of 38° C, comparing the speed over 16km tramming distance, the 70/70-57 Firestone® SRG DT LD L4 bias ply tyre has a limit of 8km/hr and the 70/70R57 Michelin X MINE L4 ** tyre has a limit of 12km/hr. Actual results may vary.
(2) Based on customer data extracted from tire management systems (2022 and 2023), when fitted first on the front axle and then moved to the rear axle, the 70/70R57 Michelin X MINE® L4 ** tire lasts longer (6,053 hours) versus the 70/70-57 Firestone® SRG DT LD L4 bias ply tyre (4,483 hours). (3) Based on customer data extracted from tire pressure monitoring systems measuring the internal air chamber temperature of the 70/70R57 Michelin X MINE® L4 ** tyre and the 70/70-57 Firestone® SRG DT LD L4 bias ply tire where vehicles had equivalent tramming distance and operated under same conditions. Actual results may vary.
