Best Tire Ever

Great tires! They are worth the couple of extra $ to move up to this grade of tire. Quiet and smooth ride. Outstanding handling in all road conditions including rain, snow and ice. Haven't found a thing that I don't like. I've recommended these tires to friends.

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.

Motoring on Michelin Since 1960

We have been in business since 1933 and have used Michelin tires on our business vehicle since 1960 as well as a our personal vehicles. They have always exceeded our expectations regarding longevity, superior quality and excellent ride. Riding down the highway, little or no "tire noise". We carry a large amount of weight hauling our product. Michelin tires handle well with the load while still providing a smooth ride and safe braking.

A few months back I slapped on my second set of Michelin tires AFTER I finished getting 100k miles from my last set of LTX M/S! I truly believe regular rotations/balancing and proper inflation make all the difference in the world. Yes, these tires have a premium up-front, but you definitely get what you pay for in this case. That's why I have a new set of Michelins on my 4Runner now and we just put a new set on my wife's new MDX this past summer. I really have no desire to buy another brand - my experience with those tires was that good!

I just returned from an off road trip in the PA mountains with a couple of Jeep buddies. It had rained and snowed the day prior and I was expecting to have trouble driving the logging trails with these tires. I was pleasntly supprised with the performance under these conditions. Granted these are not full off road tires but, I went thru alot of muddy, steep elevation changes with no traction problems. The tow ropes stayed in the Jeep. I use these tires for 99% on road use and they provide great mileage with a confortable ride. I was just suprised as to how well they performed under a very challenging condition. Thank you Michelin for bringing out the hidden goat in my suburban Jeep.

MICHELIN TIRES ARE THE BEST

MICHELIN TIRES ARE LIKE A PART OF "THE FAMILY". THEY HAVE ALWAYS BEEN USED IN MY FAMILY FOR MANY YEARS . I REMEMBER AS A TEENAGER, MICHELIN WAS THE ONLY TIRE MY PARENTS WOULD PURCHASE FOR THEIR VEHICLES. THEN WHEN I GOT MARRIED, "MICHELIN TIRES" STAYED IN THE FAMILY. MY HUSBAND AND I OWN FIVE VEHICLES, MERCEDES, CORVETTE, TWO DODGE RAMS AND JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO. ALL VECHILES HAVE MICHELIN TIRES. THE MICHELIN PRODUCTS PROVIDES THE BEST MILEAGE, PERFORMANCE, WARRANTY AND PRICE. WE PURCHASED THE LTX M/S IN JUNE 2013 FOR OUR JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE LAREDO BECAUSE MICHELIN TIRES ARE THE BEST AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO KEEP THIS NAME IN OUR FAMILY.

Third set of truck tires

I have had three sets of Michelin tires on my trucks and would never think of using any other. The reason is safety and wear. I pull a fifth wheel travel trailer, not a dually, and don't ever want a tire failure and never have with Michelin. Also recently bought Michelin for our travel trailer. I have never felt safer!! As a side note, we have installed Michelin on our personal car. The wear is excellent when you ride on these tires and the feeling of safety can not be better. Highly recommend the Michelin tire family if you are looking to replace your old rubber.

3 years & 50k miles later and I still love these tires

I purchased a set of Michelin Latitude Tour HPs for my Porsche Macan S based on a recommendation from a tire dealer, and after doing my own research. The tires provided very good grip and positive traction in all New England weather conditions. The tires were installed 3 years ago, and I put 50,000 miles on them. As the tires approached the wear indicator, they started to get noisy, so I replaced them with another set of Latitude Tor HP tires.

These tires have performed well!

I knew the Michelin name and respected the value and legacy. These tires have performed above my expectations and then some! They show little wear after 20k and will last well into the 50k mile mark. I would recommend Michelin as the last tire you will ever buy. These are my first set, and I am very pleased!
