Definitely the Right Tire for My Truck

I just replaced the Defender LTX M/S tires on my truck after 65,000 miles. There was easily adequate tread to take me to 70,000 miles but with winter coming on I decided to take advantage of the sale local Ford dealers were running this fall and put on a new set of Defender LTX MS2 tires. I figured 65,000 miles without a problem means something and the M/S2 tires are supposed to be a bit better across the board. After having the new tires mounted I had a 2-1/2 hour drive home and it felt like I was driving a new truck; the ride was so much smoother and quieter.

Safest, most comfortable ride you can get is with Michelin's on your vehicle.

Have Michelin Defender LTX 2 on our Lincoln Navigator, and Defender 2 on our Ford Explorer Platinum. They are the most comfortable, best handling, with perfect traction in all weather conditions. They handle the most aggressive roads, are extremely durable, and the tread outlasts the warranty by many miles.
