Best set of tires that ...

Best set of tires that I've ever owned. Currently have over 85,000 miles on them. Excellent wet pavement characteristics. Low noise even after many miles. Only issue was rubber dry cracking around rim bead within first 15,000 miles which has not seemed to affect tire life.

Got snow, off-road and freeways too?

The Jeep needed new shoes. What to do? Read reviews. Look at tires. Kick some of them. And then buy a set of Michelin LTX M/S. This Jeep doesn't do soccer games, but it does do snow -- wet, deep and powder plus all conditions inbetween. No wonder Eskimos have so many names for snow! The LTX tread pattern combined with siping provided a great balance in all those conditions, plus forays into some fairly serious rocky off-road trails with nary a slip. They are predictible in the twisties and quiet on freeway concrete, even with rain-groves. The wear-bars are starting to peek through and soon fall will be coming -- and the Jeep is getting some new shoes. Another set of LTXs, size 245/65-17

still rolling

back on 5-10-13, I said I had 193000 miles, and hoped to make it to 200000, well I did, now at 201000 miles on tires, looking for replacements in a while, but definitely they have to be Michelin's, oh btw, tires are on a 2002 Chevy trail blazer w/ 276000, and still strong

ROAD NOISE

I am a big Michelin tire fan I think they are great tires until I bought these tires they were great for the first 3,000 miles but then it started the ROAD NOISE ! it drives me crazy. I bought them for my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland it was the worst thing that I could have done. They hold the road great in all types of weather but the noise drives me crazy.

C'mon Michelin.....You can do better!!!

Always enjoyed Michelin tires. An avid fan...Live in So Cal. Have a bought new 2015 Ram 2wd std cab, 6'4" bed truck. Installed a new set (4) of the 275/60-20 Defender LTXs @ 39,241 miles in June 2017...... Excellent handling, very low tire noise at all speeds and outstanding performance in wet weather. Tires have been rotated every 6K to 8K miles in a figure 8 pattern. 90 + % of the total miles are highway miles. Proper air pressure always maintained along with no alignment issues. Tires wearing evenly across the entire tread width.......Now have 71,050 miles on the truck. and a total of 31,809 miles of these Michelins. One of the tires has a center tread depth of 5/32 remaining while the other three have 6/32nds of remaining tread. Surely not going to come close to the 70K mile expected tread life for this tire. Might get 50K to 55K miles.......From other review blogs I have read, pre-mature tread life seems to be a common complaint for this particular Michelin tire, while a very few do get their nearly 70K and over 70K miles.....This means that the rubber compounds mixed during manufacture are not consistently durable enough. More durable compound mixture is needed.....C'mon Michelin. You can do better......I do not want to go with another tire brand.

I had a 98 Dodge Ram extended cab and the rear never slid when starting or stopping. Also did great in 4X4m mode with extremely wet pavement and snow. No hydroplanning. Always felt like the tires were truly on the road. Now have 05 Silverado and plan to get the same tires for it.

One Heck of a Tire!

This is the second vehicle that I have used Michelin Tires on and I trust them and feel secure with them on my vehicle. My home is in the woods, with horrible road conditions in the winter and spring, and I have to have a tire that I know won't let me down. I love how they ride even on the highway when I go see my grandchildren. I know, and feel very confident that I have a tire that is dependable and will hold up to my roads! I live on a fixed income and when I buy these tires I know that I am getting the best for my money! I highly recommend these tires to everyone.

I have purhased several sets of the LTX/MS tires in 10 ply over the past several years. I have had trouble free use for 70000+ miles on each set. I was even able to give the used tires to someone who needed tires, but was unable to afford to purchase any, They also were able to use them for additional trouble free miles. The tires are more expensive than many other brands but I have considered it well worth the cost to feel secure with the quality of the tires.

Best tire ever owned!

An exceptional light truck tire! Good handling, great ride, outstanding durability. I got over 86,000 miles and almost eight years of trouble free service out of the original equipment LTX M/S tires that came on my '06 Honda Ridgeline. Could not ask for more from a tire - replaced them with an identical set.
