Excellent ride, but.......................

I have 30k on these tires and they wore abnormally down the middle, despite keeping proper air pressure and rotating them. The original LTX M/S2 tires were the best tire I ever owned and what made me a Michelin customer. These new Defenders may look like the old design, but are clearly inferior.

Extremely Dissappointed in Michelin Defender

I bought these tires in 2021 and after 31,000 miles on an 70,000 mile warranty tire, they needed to be replaced. The worse part is that all 4 tires should have been replaced under warranty, but only 2 were replaced. I was very disappointed in my Michelin purchase.

Best Wearing Tire On The Market

For past several years I have used Michelin Tires on my vehicles with the latest being installed on a 2008 2500 Dodge Diesel Pickup. Previous Michelin Tires on this vehicle had 59K miles on them and only replaced due to weather cracks appearing on side walls. Tires were five years old with vehicle stored in sun and would estimate tread had another 15,000 miles on them. Only replaced due to cracks and I pull a fifth wheel on a regular basis. Have recommended these tires to several friends and most have purchased them. Highly recommend them to anyone for any vehicle.

Have always had excellent results with these tires.good traction and wear characteristics and never any issues with tread life and no issues with any set I've ever purchased! I've always preferred Michelin over other brands and will be a customer for life!

Fantastic Tire

My new GMC 1500 Denali came from the factory with Bridgestone tires. I asked the dealership to change out to Michelin that I had been running various models on my trucks for over 30 years. They declined and said the Bridgestone tires were "just as good". At 186 miles, on the freeway at 80 mph the left rear Bridgestone completely came apart. It delaminated like retreads do on tractor trailers. I was able to pull the truck over, put on the spare and drove back to the dealership I've never had a tire come apart like that. After a bit of a discussion with the Sales Manager the dealer persuaded GMC to replace the tires with the Michelin Defender LTX M/S. Couldn't be happier. The tire is quiet, handles like a dream and I don't worry about the quality. "Just as good" means inferior in my mind.

Terrible Tramlining

I have always liked the performance of my Michelin tires but the tramlining on this set is a definite negative. I truly would not have purchase them had I known that it would be this noticeable. I needed new tires for my Jeep Grand Cherokee and I put on about 35K miles a year so I didn't hesitate getting these as I have never had this problem with other Michelin's on my cars. Very irritating considering half of my daily commute is on grooved pavement.

Great traction in all sorts of weather

I bought the Michelin Defender tires to replace the Michelin tires that came on my 2019 Ford F150 truck. The new tires have excellent traction and stability dealing with all kinds of road conditions. Like the original set, the new Michelin tires are the most quiet truck tires I've ever had, with absolutely no road whine. When the time comes, I'll definitely look at Michelin first.

Best tire for the money

This is the best tire for the price. You can buy a cheaper tire, but you would have to buy two sets of the cheaper tires to get the same mileage as one set of these michelins. Smooth, quiet ride just adds to the value of these tires. I won't own anything else.

Smooth and Quiet!

I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler that seemed to wander all over the road and was noisy. We considered moving up to a newer model. With new Michelin's its like a newer Jeep - much tighter and quiet. You wouldn't think tires could make such a difference!
