The LTX is by far the ...

The LTX is by far the best tires I have ever owned. My first set of LTX was bought used from A friend I worked with and when I bought the tires they had 50,000 miles on them and still looked new. I put another 100,000 miles on them!!! Thats right I got 150,000 miles out of one set of tires and they still have 1/4 inch deep tread and I'm still using them on and old project truck. The only reason I changed the tires was due to age and some weather cracks on side walls other wise I would still have them on the truck and I'm willing to bet I could get 200,000 miles out of them. Needless to say I purchased a new set of the LTX for the old truck also I brought a set of LTX for my full size van. I have a set of Michelin on my car and as soon as I save up enough money you can bet I will be buying a set of LTX for my other 4x4 truck!! For me the Michelin LTX has made a believer out of me to be the best truck or van tire you can buy!!! I can send you a picture of the old tires and you can see for yourself how good they still look to have 150,000 miles on them. Thanks Clete

because so much is riding on my tires

this is my 3rd set of ltx m/s tires, before that it was the x radial lt tires. I usually get 55 to 60 thousand miles out of a set. the sure grip in the florida rain. most reliable tire on the road. just bought another set about a month ago. Michelin tires are all I will run on my vehicles. I don't go off road, but we do road trips a lot. I especially like the temperature rating, they stay pretty cool, even after long distance on the interstates.

Long Lasting High Mileage Tire

Second set of tires on my 2001 Chevy Tahoe. First set ran over 80,000 miles and had enough tread left for another 20.000. Over the years, I have bought Michelin tires several times. I would not buy any other manufacturer. I am looking forward to many more miles on my Michelin tires.

Best Tires Ever Purchased

I purchased the tires when I had 46,590 miles on the SUV. I now have over 98,800 miles on the unit. There is still quite a bit of tread on the tire, I have had no problems with the tires and would definitely would purchase the same tire again. I placed them on my Lincoln MKX

I now have over 75,000 miles on this set, I rotate them every 5000 miles. I feel they will go 100,000. You pay more up front but these tires will give you your investment back. My wifes Tahoe also now has Michelins & it rides like a dream. I am on my third set. OK I' m sold !! RA

I purchased a used Ford ...

I purchased a used Ford Explorer 4x4 from a Ford dealer with a mis-matched set of tires. Knowing the vehicle was based on a truck platform, I still felt the highway ride should have felt better than what I was experiencing - loud tire whine,vibrations and a rough ride. I quickly replaced the OEM shocks which improved the ride somewhat, but it wasn't until I went to my Michelin dealer and he recommended the LTX M/S tires than I finally had the improvement I was looking for. After I replaced that mis-matched set of tires with the new Michelin LTX M/S's and drove it home, I thought my Explorer had been replaced with a look alike. I mean everything about the performance was dramatically improved! The ride was smooth with no tire whine and no more annoying vibration. It felt like the vehicle was finally gripping the road. And in the rain, it felt like I was riding on rails. Who knew tires would've made such a huge difference? I do now! I finally felt safe and secure, like I now had a vehicle that could take me anywhere. I'm a Michelin fan for life now! No other tires for me.

I love my Michelins!

I bought my first set of Michelins in 1973 for an Opel Manta Ralley and never used anything other tire unless the car came with something else. Bought a Honda Accord one time and forced them to put a set of Michelins on before i woyuld agree to the deal. My duaghter was going to be driving the car and didn't want her to have any issues with her tires and have a great trust for the Michelin Brand!

I have a class-C RV, and have my 2nd set of Michelins on. The first set were 5 years old and the only sign of wear was due to a slight front end alignment. The rear showed no visible wear at all with 50M miles. However it was time to replace. The spare had never been off. I check pressure on all tires including the spare when we go for our monthly outing.

Tires don't last

The tires have a 70 thousand mile warranty. I bought the tires in May of 2023 but the review form makes me put the purchase date within a year of the review date becuase they don't want people giving a real review of the tires. I only have 30,000 miles on the truck and the tires are going bald already. I drive mostly highway with some city driving, buts its all on paved roads and never offroad.

Better than factory tires

On my 2017 RAM 1500 Limited, the factory tires lasted as expected, about 17k miles. I've been a Michelin LTX fan for about 15 years. The Defender LTX MS didn't disappoint. They have a MUCH smoother ride than the factory tires ever did and handle very well. I've had them a few months now and can't yet see treadwear, but I know from Michelin experience they will last many many years.
