exellent tires for a long time

This is the 3rd set of this set of tires that I have purchased for this truck. All of them have given me more miles that the warranty will cover and the handling and comfort have always been top notch. I originally purchased them because i was told the noise was very low. This has been true, I hear very little road noise. That’s saying a lot because this truck has been driven across the country 3 times.

The best Tire ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are thick, robust and resistant tires...! Even though I just installed them and can't give you mileage or longevity yet, I am impressed with these tires. I have used them for 1 month and we have seen heavy rain, no hydroplaning, snow and ice storms, no slippage and mainly ground grip on hilly descents. They have behaved quite well in the elements. They also run very smooth and quiet, and I feel like my vehicle handles quite well with these tires. I drive frequently so it's only been 1 month but I've already put about 1000 miles on them and have no complaints. I'll add it to my review when I've gotten a little more use out of them and update their performance at that time. So far, so good. If you are looking for a good set, I tell you not to be indecisive, play it safe with Michelin tires, buy these. I am convinced that these tires will prove their worth for a long time... and I will buy again if/when necessary...! There are many tires, many cheaper, but the quality and price of a good tire, you can't go wrong.

2020 Tundra OEM tires that only lasted 37,000 miles

I’ve been generally pleased with the performance of these tires—they handle well in both wet and dry conditions, provide a quiet and comfortable ride, and inspire confidence on the road. However, I was disappointed with the tread life. Despite careful and consistent driving, my set needed replacement at around 37,000 miles, well short of the advertised 60,000-mile expectation. Since these came as OEM equipment on my vehicle, there was unfortunately no warranty support available. Overall, great performance, but potential buyers should be aware of the faster-than-expected tread wear.

Smooth, sometimes slippery, loves sticking to rocks

I just bought my second set of these. Pros: Smooth, quiet ride, tread wear was even but not premature Cons: From a stop to start acceleration on wet roads sometimes the rear tires spin, gravel trapping by the tires is annoying upon driving at higher speeds on highways and hearing rocks pelt the wheel wells.

Best Tire Money can Buy

I am 7 years into the 2018 Defender LTX M/S, and am getting the Defender LTX M/S 2 this month. This tire far exceeds all others in every genre that can be reviewed. I drive a 1999 4Runner SR5, and have attempted to "get stuck", but have never been in such a predicament with these. Even with very worn tires, we were in the backcountry in the Black Hills, SD and it climbed right out. Excellent performance in midwest winters, and the smoothest handling and noise control you'll get. Worth the splurge on any vehicle.

NICE TO BE CONFIDENT

ALWAYS PREFER MICHELIN TIRES, TRADED OEM'S OUT AND NOW I HAVE REAL ROUND TIRES. VERY SMOOTH AND ENJOY THE IMPROVED HANDLING. A BIT HARD ON ROUGH ROADS BUT SMOOTH AS CAN BE ON THE GOOD ONES. LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HOW THEY HANDLE AN UPCOMING ROAD TRIP THROUGH VARIES CONDITIONS.

Not recommended for a luxury suv.

I regret purchasing these tires. Their ride is too hard and noisy. There is excess molding process flaps of rubber on two tires which should have been trimmed off at the factory. The Latitude Touring HP is a much better choice for a 2018 Lexus GX 460. I fell ill and didn't have the opportunity to ask for other tires within the Michelin allotted time period.

Poor milage wear

Tires wore faster than should have. After alittle over 30000 miles on them will need replacing. Had rotations done on timely recommended times. These were my first tire type as I always ran the Michelins A/T before on my RAM and they all lasted. I now am researching other brands also, My driving habits at my age and keeping my Truck serviced don't warrant they should be worn so quickly, so frustrated at this point. No off road driving, most just highway or in town, only 1 tire had to be replaced after about 9 months after hitting large bolt. I did like the handling and quietness.
