Best Tires for the Money

These are the best tires I have ever purchased for any vehicle. I got 90,000 miles out of this set of 60,000 mile tires. Only rotated once and tread wear was even throughout the time I had them on my truck. That is why I replaced those tires with the exact same tire regardless of the price. It is a good investment. I highly recommend these tires if you are looking for a smooth quiet ride, even wear, and long use.

2nd time I have selected LTX M/S

The first set LTX M/S tires lasted 8 years and 3 months...incredible. Granted I should have gotten new tires after 6 years, but these tires still had tons of tread on them when I had them replaced. These new ones seem even tougher somehow. You can by other good tires, but if you want the best I always trust Michelin.

Balance Problems

Bought a set of these Oct 2018 for my 2015 Ram 2500 to replace the Firestone OE tires at 25784 miles. DOT codes B71500AX0218,0318,5017,&5017. OK on backroads which is most of use, but very bad vibration at highway speeds 70-80mph. Checked alignment and checked for bent wheel - all ok. Rebalanced a month later at 27552 miles. Same problem. Rebalanced and switched Front to Rear at 28571 miles - problem almost completely cured. Rotated by dealer at 35015 miles - problem back. Rebalanced and switched front to rear at 36693 miles and again problem improved to acceptable level. Dealer rotated again at 40488 miles and problem on Interstates back as bad as ever. Rebalanced and swapped front to rear again and again acceptable at 42991 miles. Put 100k miles on F250 with previous design and never had a problem. Put 260k miles on 4 sets of Michelins on 2006 Toyota Avalon - no problem. Put 100k so far on Michelins on 2015 Avalon and 45k on 2019 Sequoia - again no problem - so it has to be something in at least one of the Defender LTX tires most likely one of the ones currently on rear. Definitely not what I expect from Michelin - Currently 45k miles on truck. Trying to figure out where to go next. Not happy with Defenders.

I have had this model tire on every vehicle I have owned. I am on my 5th vehicle and the 4th van / truck. The first and second vehicle was a small passenger car and a small van. These tires last and I not only fully trust them but I get my money's worth.

I have driven 79,811 on a set of michelin LTX M/S tires with very even thread wear. I have noticed some sidewall cracks in all 4 tires and the traction is not so good on wet roads now due to thread wear. I guess it is time for a new set. I will buy the same tire again. JR

Smooth Ride

Replaced all 4 tires on my 2020 Odyssey about 7 weeks ago. Did a lot of “research” / read a lot of websites before settling on them. Was concerned about a possible drop in MPG. Haven’t experienced that, and they ride so smooth I forgot what the original tires felt like. I would definitely buy these again.

Best "Sport Truck" Tire Ever !!

After several brand tires on my SSR Chevy pickup, I bought Michelin Tires. They were Awsome on my Z06 Corvette, so now I installed them on my SSR Pickup. I went with Laditude HP rear and Pilot Sport A/S3 front. OEM sizes. They are absolutely in a league all to themselves.. Best Ever!

Molding Process Not Up To Par

In the past Michelin tires have had clean side molding process. The Defender tires that I recently purchased does not have clean molding lines. One tire tire is perfect while the other three have extra rubber “flaps* around the tire side wall. Time will tell how they hold up. Maybe I’m picky but the extra molding rubber makes them look cheap.

On my 2nd set on Escape!

My 2015 Escape came equipped with the worst (not Michelin) high performance tires on earth and literally were breaking apart in a short time. I was advised the Defenders were the best and I'm on my 2nd set. I've had Blizzaks on this car, but now that they're worn out, I find the Defenders do the job all seasons in Michigan!

Almost 72,000 miles on a dodge Durango SUV

We have made numerous trips from Arkansas to Florida with the SUV loaded with Wife, Me, 2teenagers, and more luggage than I care to discuss. The tires have performed perfectly for us. The wear has been so good that I am calling around to have them ordered before I even go to the tire shop. I have the P265 /60 R18 109T. I am replacing them with the exact tires no exception! Thanks Michelin Man! Bland Burris Jonesboro, Ar
