Michelin Black Friday 2025 Sale – The Offer is Live!

Updated on Wednesday, November 19, 2025: When Black Friday rolls around, most people think about TVs, laptops, and gadgets. But if you’re planning to replace your tires before winter fully sets in, it’s also one of the best times of the year to look at deals from Michelin. Their annual holiday rebate offer is now live, giving shoppers a straightforward way to save on new Michelin tires.

Here’s everything you need to know about Michelin’s 2025 Black Friday/Winter promotion, including start and end dates, rebate details, where to shop, and eligibility requirements.


Black Friday 2025 Sale Start & End Dates

Michelin’s official 2025 promotion runs from September 24, 2025, through December 9, 2025. This extended window gives plenty of time to plan your purchase, schedule tire installation, and submit your rebate without rushing.


Where to Buy

To qualify, tires must be purchased from authorized and participating Michelin dealers located in the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories (Puerto Rico, Guam, and U.S. Virgin Islands). That incudes Tire Rack.

Important exclusions:

These stores may run their own promotions, but purchases there will not qualify for Michelin’s official rebate. Always verify dealer participation before buying.


How the Rebate Works

Michelin is offering an $80 rebate via Visa Reward Card (physical) or Visa Virtual Prepaid Card (email) on purchases of four (4) new Michelin passenger or light truck tires.

Key details:

  • One rebate per qualifying purchase of four tires
  • Maximum of three redemptions per household
  • Rebate requests must be submitted online by January 9, 2026
  • Physical cards arrive in 4–6 weeks, virtual cards in 3–5 weeks

The rebate applies only to the cost of the tires themselves. Mounting, balancing, valve stems, taxes, and retailer discounts are not included in the purchase amount calculation.


Restrictions and Eligibility

  • Must be 18 or older
  • Purchases for businesses, fleets, OEMs, wholesalers, or resale are not eligible
  • Purchases cannot include promotions that violate Michelin guidelines, such as:
    • Buy 3, get 1 free
    • Buy 2, get 2 free
    • Buy 3, get the 4th for $1
    • 25% off a set of four tires
  • Cannot be combined with any other Michelin manufacturer offer
  • All rebate requests must be accurate and truthful; tampering constitutes fraud

Michelin reserves the right to modify or discontinue this offer at any time.
