FALCONCLAW C/SUV UHP
ENERGY SAVER A/S
235 mm wide (9.3 in), with a sidewall 55 percent of the width (129 mm, 5.1 in), on a 17-inch wheel. Overall diameter is about 27.2 in (690 mm), so the tire turns about 742 times per mile. Every tire compared on this page is this exact size, so the physical fit is the same; the differences are in the ratings and the price.
Speed ratings. H (up to 130 mph), W (up to 168 mph). The speed rating is the highest speed the tire is built to sustain at its rated load; it is not a recommendation to drive that fast. Replacement tires should match or exceed the rating on your vehicle's placard.
Load index. from 99 (775 kg / 1709 lb per tire) to 103 (875 kg / 1929 lb); 1 of these are XL (extra load) versions, built for higher inflation and load. Never fit a tire with a lower load index than the placard shows.
UTQG grades. Treadwear 480; traction A; temperature A, B. Treadwear is a comparison on a government test course: a 600 is expected to last about 1.5 times as long as a 400 under the same conditions, but real mileage depends on driving, alignment and inflation. Traction (AA best to C) is wet straight-line braking; temperature (A best to C) is resistance to heat.

Armohero matches or beats Michelin on UTQG treadwear rating (480 vs 480) in this exact size, at a $211.35 lower price (Price as of Oct 20, 9:28 PM ET - call to confirm).
Armohero offers a documented UTQG treadwear rating of 480 in this size, compared to Michelin at 480. Treadwear rating is a federally mandated, manufacturer-published measure of expected tire life, making this a fair, apples-to-apples comparison for this exact size.
Treadwear rating measures expected tread life, not ride comfort or noise level. Premium brands like Michelin often invest more in noise-dampening technology and ride refinement, which may be a real difference even at matching treadwear ratings. If quiet ride is your top priority, ask our team at 561-971-9869 which option suits that specific need.
