"Shoes for Cars"

Michelin tires are like Nike sneakers...a good reputation built on solid years of experience. My LTX M/S tires are on my suburban, yes I drive a suburban. Even with gas prices going up, my suburban stays on the road, mainly due to the Michelin tires. The tires offer a smooth ride on the highway and maintaining proper air pressure keeps it fuel efficient. The tread is perfect for all conditions on the highway and ready to take off road for my camping and hunting needs. I just shift into 4-wheel drive and my Michelin's take my up the muddy and rocky road to camp. Come winter, we're off to the slopes and my LTX M/S tires keep me in my lane up and down the steep grade to the resorts. I feel confident in my travels knowing that my suburban has the proper shoes for the event. THANK YOU!!!

Safety is #1

Safety is #1 I like the way I feel safer driving in all road conditions with my Michelin Defender tires on my vehicle. Also, the ride is much smoother on any of those road condition I drive on. I think they will last a long time. My last Michelin tires lasted 13 years!!

I would purchase this tire again.

I have purchased Michelin tires for over 50 years and with exception of a recall have never had a problem. Just put a "better deal" brand on my diesel car that ad stated was a "high performance tire" but I miss the handling performance of my Michelins! My 1960 TR-3 that I bought in college is sitting in the garage and has never had any tire but Michelin. I am a loyal customer to this brand. Thanks.

Fantastic wear, very ...

Fantastic wear, very quiet and affirmative ride. It is a very capable tire. Most tires have peaks in performance in certain areas at the sacrifice of others. Not this tire, it is a good all-rounder and a solid performer no matter the conditions. This is a reflection of Michellin: strong, consistent, and quality products.

First Time Michelin Owner

I just had 4 new Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires installed on my 2004 Suburban. Just driving home from the service shop felt like I was driving a new vehicle. The ride was smoother, quieter, and more responsive. I had researched for weeks in advance to making the decision to go with Michelin and I am very glad I did. I feel Michelin did their homework with this tire design and definitely got it right.

Great Ride, high mileage

This is my second set of Michelins. The first set got me close to 60,000 miles, and I am hoping to get the same out of the 2nd set. These tires are smooth, quiet and offer a very comfortable ride. They are a little more expensive than other brands but they last longer so it actually saves you time and money in the long run.

I am on my second set of ...

I am on my second set of these tires on my 2004 Chevrolet crew cab pickup. I had 56,000 miles on the first set with still a lot of tread. Replaced them so I would have new tires for the 2010 hunting season when I get off road. This is the best tire I have ever used for a pickup, and I am 78 years old. They are quite on the pavement and adequate for off road use.

Best tire on the planet

I bought my Pilot new it now has 81,200 miles on it with the same original tires. I'm looking for new ones now before winter and I'm having a hard time finding them in my area. Why aren't people stocking what really works. I thought about trading it in and the 2 dealers that looked at them said those aren't the orig. when I said yes they are their comment was that's one for the record book! I live on a farm in SNOW country and they are by far the best, all around, worth the money tire ever made!!!

No More Jeep Death Warble!!!

I have owned a 2005 Jeep Wrangler for the past five years, and I spent the first three years of that ownership living with what has been described in many online articles as the "Death Warble." The Death Warble would occur at almost anytime when the vehicle was making a slight turn and then encountered a sharp bump in the road, when traveling between 55 to 65 MPH. The front end of the vehicle would begin to shake violently, and begin loosing control. The only way to stop the shaking was to instantly slow the vehicle to 40 MPH, or flatten the accelerator to the floor. Neither option was popular with fellow drivers or the law enforcement community. So I repeatedly took the vehicle which had only 21,000 miles at the first occurrence back to the dealer, who suggested an extended warrantee, since I had purchased the vehicle used. I had the tires rotated, balanced, and the car aligned, all to no avail. I simply lived with the problem for another two years, until I just couldn't stand it any longer. Finally, at around 60,000 miles I decided it was time for new tires. I purchased four new Michelin LTX-MS tires after hours of online research for tires with a stiff sidewall, which I suspected might be the cause of my problem. I have now logged 30,000 miles on my new Michelins, and I have never once experienced the Death Warble again! Not only that, but I can now actually drive my Jeep comfortably on long trips due to the improvement in ride quality, and I'm getting better gas milage! What more can I say, except, "Well Done Michelin." You may have saved my live, and you most certainly improved the quality of it.

Best road tires I've ever owned

I've had the Defender series on several different vehicles. Best performing road tire I've ever had. Wet, slick, icy and light snow, the traction, stopping power and cornering is the best. I'd love to have some narley looking AT tires on my 4runner for looks but I'll never change from the Defenders, I feel safe with them on my vehicle.
