Product Information
Full details
The Michelin Wild AM Performance Line Tyre is designed for aggressive trail riders and competitive mountain bikers who demand reliable traction and durability on mixed terrain. Its primary strength lies in the GUM-X3D rubber compound, which provides exceptional grip, supported by the protective Trail Shield 3x60tpi casing. While it offers excellent performance in diverse conditions, riders should note that the focus on durability and trail protection may result in a slightly heavier feel compared to pure racing-specific tires.

FAQs
Is this tyre compatible with tubes?
Yes, while it is designed to be tubeless ready, it can be used with a standard inner tube if preferred.
What is the best pressure to run?
Optimal pressure depends on rider weight and rim width, but most riders find success starting between 25-30 psi for tubeless setups.
Can I use this tyre on muddy terrain?
It performs well on mixed terrain, but if you frequently ride in deep, sticky mud, a dedicated mud-specific tyre may offer better clearing capabilities.
What does the 3x60tpi casing mean?
It refers to three layers of 60 threads-per-inch material, which provides a balance between suppleness and reinforced protection against cuts and punctures.
Does this tyre come in different sizes?
Yes, the Wild AM Performance Line is available in various dimensions such as 27.5" x 2.35", 27.5" x 2.60", and 27.5" x 2.80".
Troubleshooting
Difficulty seating the tubeless bead
Ensure the bead is pushed into the deepest part of the rim channel, apply a soapy water solution to the sidewall, and use a high-volume pump or compressor to seat the tyre.
Sealant leaking from sidewalls
Check if the tyre is fully seated and verify that you have used enough sealant for your specific tyre volume; ensure the valve core is tightened securely.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High level of traction on mixed terrain
- Enhanced puncture resistance via Trail Shield casing
- Tubeless ready for versatile performance
- Reliable handling during aggressive cornering
Cons
- Heavier than specialized cross-country race tires
- May require more effort to set up on some rim profiles
- Performance optimized for trail rather than extreme mud shedding
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the benefits of this tyre, a tubeless setup is highly recommended. Ensure your rims are taped correctly with high-quality rim tape and use a compatible tubeless sealant to seal the bead interface effectively. When installing, ensure the bead is fully seated in the center channel of the rim before inflating to prevent air leakage. For maintenance, regularly inspect the tread for embedded debris and check the tyre pressure before each ride, as running the correct pressure is vital to the performance of the Trail Shield casing. If storing the bike for long periods, keep it in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent rubber degradation.
