Where the rubber meet the road

I drive my vehicle 100+ miles every day. I've ran over debris that should have damaged or destroyed my tires. To this day I can honestly say that I only have one(1) damaged area on my tires which has not impaired the driveability or road worthiness of the tires. The make and model of my vehicle was not truly designed to provide a comfortable ride, but ever since I installed the Michelin LTX M/S my vehicle handles better than expected. The tread wear on my tires has exceeded my expectations and I'm not done yet. Whatever you did to make the LTX M/S please don't change the formula because that's a darn good tire.

I am in the ...

I am in the transportation business and have had great success with the Michelin product line. When it comes to passenger tires I don't think you can beat the LTX M/S. The ride and life of these tires are unmatched by any of the competition. I one time tried the competition because of price not cost but price and have been sorry ever since. The next purchase for that truck will be the LTX M/S.

Wont balance and out of round

In the last two weeks I have had two sets (265/65/17) installed and now they are coming of my 4Runner and being replaced with another brand. I have always heard that Michelin was a top tire, but my experience has been terrible. Two out of four from the last set were out of round and it didn't matter what method of balancing was used (we tried road force and traditional) and it didn't matter. The first set was worse so i expect they had the same problem. Very unhappy with the amount of time and trips to tire shop dealing with bad manufacturing / quality control. Will never purchase again.

Defender LTX M/S (vs original Premier LTX)

I replaced to Defender LTX M/S from original Premier LTX which was recommended as 'same' by tire specialist for my Pacifica Limited AWD. Wrong! It is noisy and bouncy at all speed. Also lost 0.3 mpg. No big deal on mpg loss. This tire may be better fit for pickups and off roads.

Great in snow

Just purchased these tires after much time reading various reviews on the internet. Wanted a tire that would offer all season reliability and still provide good traction on snow and icy road conditions. Here in Colorado they do a great job clearing the roads, but I often leave early in the mornings and it can be dangerous. We had our first snow of the season about two weeks after having these installed, and they were fantastic. They tracked extremely well in about 4" of fresh, wet snow. I never felt out of control of my vehicle. This is exactly what I was hoping for when I purchased these tires.

The Best of the best

I have been buying Michelin tires for over 45 years. This is the set has lasted 3 years and perform as good as the first day. The set before this lasted over 9 years. They just don't wear out. If you keep them rotated and balanced and alinement you will get long tread life from them. I love the performance in both on and off the road because I drive up to the ranch on dirt and gravel roads. These tires are the best tire on the market today and are the best I have ever owned. They are smooth and quiet riding on the highway. Don't be fooled by moucho looking brands these tires will out perform any other brand hands down you can take my word on that. I have had very heavy loads in my truck and they handle them very well. These are the best tires made in the world.

Makes a difference!

Bought these tires to replace the original tires on my Honda Pilot. Original tires wore completely out by 27,000 miles. After researching tires, not something I care to do again, and asking around, everyone led me straight to the Michelin LTX M/S for my SUV. They were right. My original tires were bumpy, really noisy, and just plain awful. Driving with the Michelin's on is like night and day. The difference was amazing and immediately noticed. The LTX's are quiet, comfortable, and have great traction both in wet and dry conditions. I will suggest to everyone to stay away from the cheaper tires (not sure that anyone should pinch a penny on tires...save that for peanut butter), stop looking, and just get the Michelin's. Your vehicle will thank you!

I love this tire

This is the second set of LTX M/S tires we've owned. The first set lasted 105,000 miles and were replaced due to age not tire wear. After 105, 000 miles they still rode as smooth and performed flawlessly. The 2nd set is living up to the same expectations.

Best tire I've purchased ...

Best tire I've purchased for a full size pickup. As soon as the stock tires were worn enough to replace,I purchased Michelin. Ride ,control and stability are vastly improved. Current milage 65,000 and still plenty of tread. I estimate 80,000 miles + on this set before replacement. (based on wear to date)

Michelin LTX 10 ply

This will be my 3rd set. I consistently get 60k miles or more on my 2008 suburban with these. Traction is good, smooth riding, stable. I run the 10 ply tire on my su urban just in case I tow and I like them better than any 4 ply tire I have ever used.
