Great all around performance from these Defender LTX M/S2 tires. As always, Michelin tires are always the best choice in all categories that matter. They consistently deliver excellent traction, handling and comfort all while providing the longest durability I’ve ever experienced. I’ve been driving for well over fifty years and almost all of those have been on Michelin tires. When purchasing new vehicles which are not factory equipped with Michelin tires, I’ve seen the performance from other manufacturers drop off significantly. In those cases I’ve opted to replace those tires over to Michelin’s at the earliest possible time. I only choose Michelin tires for all of my family vehicles because they have always been the best performing brand I’ve ever experienced.

We recently replaced the OEM tires that came on our 2020 F150 with Michelin’s defender ltx m/s 2’s. I was looking for a tire that did everything well with emphasis on performance in snow and on slick roads while being comfortable and QUIET. Literally everyone I spoke to and everything I read about these tires talked about how quiet and comfortable they were. Our truck currently has between 50 and 60 thousand miles on it and we have less than 2,000 miles on the Defender’s, I can say without hesitation these tires are not as quiet as what we took off. If I had it to do over I would put the OEM tires back on.

Back in May of 2019 I purchased a full set of 4 - 235/55R19 Michelin Defender LTX tires for our Ford Flex. I'd always been comfortable with Michelin tires for the quality of their construction and safe handling while driving. I also bought them for their mileage warranty! These came with a 65,000 miles guarentee! As of today Saturday 10/25/2025 my vehicle mileage is 89,497, and when I purchased these tires my mileage was approximately 05/09/2019 was 63,067 leaving a total mileage on the tires is only 26,430. My tires are in need of replacement "NOW", as they're only an 1/8th of an inch or less from reaching the wear indicaters in the tires, and the requiring new tires.

The ride is now much quieter, especially on the hwy. There is quite a bit of tread on these tires. I really like them.

I always buy Michelin tires for their smooth, quiet ride; exceptional wear and confidence in rain, snow and all kinds of weather.

Love these tires second set I’ve had on this vehicle. I’ve always bought Michelin tires for all my vehicles. They are reliable and they stand behind their product.

Wet traction and water displacement is very good. Quiet and very stable at all speeds. Snow traction was a very big surprise. Had some very snowy weather this year and had no issues.

These tires ride much better than the ones I replaced. The jury is out on their ability to reduce hydroplaning, which is the reason I purchased them.

This is my second set of Defenders. One set on Rav 4, reduced cabin noise by 50%. The other set on my F 150, now on the 5th year. Will be getting new Defenders this spring.

These are highway tires and do NOT have very much traction. Less than 100 miles and the tires have a slight wobble like a tire blister or tread separation.
