My originals lasted for 90K miles

These tires were original equipment for my 2009 Honda. My current ones have 90k miles and are finally being replaced. Super traction in the snow, I never had a problem, and I live in NE. That is 5 hard winters of driving and I can count on one hand the number of times my vehicle traction control actually came on. Remarkable. Another storm coming, time for some new sneakers for the truck.

Michelen is the best tire on the road

I purchased a new Dodge Ram 2500 on September 8th, 2001. The truck had 75 miles on the odometer Michelin LTX A/S tires were the original tires that came with the truck. I never used a Michelin product before this point. But I noticed the truck had excellent ride characteristics with these tires. The winter was just around the corner but I found that I never had to worry because these tires always performed flawlesslsy in the worst weather. Another excellent quality about my Michelin tires was was how long the lasted. I was shocked to reach over 100,000 miles and still measure 5/32nds in tread depth. and in those 100,000 miles I never even had a flat or a puncture in any of the tires. Well, my choice for tires when it came time for replacement was obvious at this point, Michelin. I chose to go with the same exact tires that I had on the truck Michelin LTX A/S. and I experienced the same flawless year round performance for another 100,000 plus miles. By the time I was ready for my third set of tires for some reason Michelin discontinued the LTX A/S and I began to panic. Now what was I going to do? I could not switch brands now. Then I spoke to my tire dealer which is an official Michelin dealer and they assured me that the Michelin LTX M/S was a good replacement. I was a little skeptical at first because I liked the perfromance as well as the look of my Michelin LTX A/S tires. I took thier advice and purchased the Michelin LTX M/S tires and once again I got 100.000 plus miles of good solid year round performance. I have always been happy with Michelin tires, I am a mechanic and I am often asked which tires are a good purchase and I always recommend Michelin and refer to my history with them on my truck. That Ram has always been a special truck to me because it was the first new vechicle that I have ever bought, and the events that would unfold three days after I bought my new Ram on September 11. 2001 would suddenly give me a renewed appreciation for life and the freedoms we are blessed with in the United States of America. My Ram currently has about 450,000 miles on it and I am ready for my fourth set of Michelins. That truck has been good to me and has never given my any problems. My Michelin tires have been good to me too. I never even got a flat and my original Michelin LTX A/S spare tire is still mounted under the bed and still has full air pressure in it. My truck and my Michelins have taken me a lot of places. Somtimes a long way from home. But, I know that Ill always make it back because my truck has never let me down and neither has my Michelins

First 12,000 miles 4++ Stars have performed well!

Bought these Defender LTX M/S for my 14' Subaru Forester 2.5 i , upon recommendation from my local smaller dealer and research ,Is when we decided to up size from 225-60-R17 99H to 225-65-R17 102H so we could get to the Defender LTX M/S vs the Defender T+H, A great decision// for added Tire performance for traction, wet weather traction & braking, snow traction and mixed conditions in the Mid Atlantic region and into W Va travels. Only went with 4++ stars due to only 12k on a 70,000 rated tire is rerasonable and more in line of the performance thus far Yes i have lost about 1-1.5 mpg around town but the performance in handling, stopping and traction improvement locally but also on trips has been noticeable and appreciated. Also about maybe 1 mpg lost on trips has been worth it ,for all the other features we have gained by going with this size and model of Defender. The handling of our Forester has been improved from the OEM Yokahamas 2yrs 24,000 and the P7 All season Plus tires that only game me 32,600 miles for 60,000 mile tire. I rotate these tires every 6,000 miles and having put 12K on them thus far there is no wear noticed. Given the size & gross wt of our Forester SUV , lends to a lighter handling vehicle esp in mixed and snow ; we have gained better driving and performance for this type of SUV which has increased the value to us for our vehicle. I would recommend considering these tires, again I am very pleased with the greater aspect of the tires and getting into the Defender LTX M/S model I plan on updating this review when i get another 12k or on the tire Mark Va

My LTX M/S tires are ...

My LTX M/S tires are superior in every way to the previous 'other brand' tires that I had on my GMC Canyon pickup. The LTX M/S give an incredibly smooth ride for a light truck tire and they are quiet. They also seem to have a reasonable rolling resistance as my fuel economy remains up where it should be. I'm very happy with my decision to mount these on my truck.

GET MORE THAN YOUR MONEY'S WORTH !!

Great value! The ride is phenomenal! Safety and braking are very good. Peace of mind having my family members ride on these tires. Best of all.....the wear life is incredible with proper balancing and rotations! In today's world it is nice to find a value for your money. Thanks Michelin!

was expecting better wear - honestly

Have put on about 20,000 mile on these - medium use and mostly highway. wearing down pretty quickly in less than 1 year. not my previous experience with the Defender tires - they lasted 100k+ miles. Michelin - am questioning why I paid a premium for durability based upon previous performance now. Hopefully they will last. Don't appear to handle dirt/gravel roads as well as advertised/expected. I only buy this brand and this model for my p/u and SUVs. Am reconsidering now with my newest experience.

I put a set on my 95 Chevy Blazer about 5 years ago; I drove the vehicle a year or so then relinquished it to my daughter who drove it for the next few years and she and her husband are driving it. All on the same set of Michelins. We live in the country on a bumpy rocky road and they have never let us down. Probably about 30 to 40 thousand miles of mostly local city driving on these tires. Will always buy michelin if possible.

Quiet. Tough. Grippy. Smoooooooth

Amazing how well these hold up off-road on my job site. Even in the mud they keep going. Nice quiet ride on the way home. Super long tread life. Amazing grip, really unstopped in snow and ice. When they were installed they balanced super easy and ride so smooth. Wide range of sizes for all vehicles!

Second time...just as charming.

Following my fathers advice, who is a professional tour bus driver, I have purchased Michelin tires for my families cars for 30 years. My latest set replace M/S LTX that just passed 75,000 miles. If not for the toe being out a bit on my car, I might have managed another 5,000+ miles. Stoked!!
