Excellent tread wear, last set went 80,500 miles.

Excellent replacement tire of the same prior Defender LTX M/S model which lasted 80,500 with no service issues. Tires ride great, are quiet, and have excellent traction. Unfortunately, the manufacture date on the tires is 4423 which means the 44th week of 2023, so the new tires were actually 2 and one half years past their manufacture date when sold and installed.

SNOW ❄️ 🧊 ICE Traction!

Wet and Snow ❄️ traction was awesome this winter! We got a crazy 🤪 extra amount of Snow and Ice in Richmond, Virginia this year! I have got a lot better gas mileage with new tires also! Had gotten 89k out of old Michelin tires!

Michelin Defender LT27570R18

I put these tires on my diesel pickup. I pull a 40 ft fifth wheel trailer. They really are nice on the hwy. They rid a lot better that the original Michelin tires from the factory when new. When driving on roads that have been cracked filled across the width of the lanes with tar, they take most of the bumps out .and gives a nice smooth ride. I have not found anything with these tires that I do not like. They are good. So far so good but then I have always liked Michelin Tires.
