2 sets of LTX M/S

The LTX M/S tires are standard equipment on my 2005 GMC Envoy Denali 2WD. I am preparing to get my third set of tires for this vehicle, yet I only have 76k miles on the vehicle, which means I only get 34k miles out of these tires per set. My complaint is the tires seem soft, and I do not get the expected mileage out of these tires. I am trying to get a set of Michelin LTX AT2's but they are on a long back order. I have the LTX AT2s on both a 2009 Chevy Silverado 3/4 ton 4x4, and also on a 2002 Chevy TrailBlazer 2WD. I get fabulous tire wear on these vehicles.

my latitude

My 08 ford edge came with latitude tires and today I replaced them with a new set. I had put a little over 69 thousand miles on them and never had a problem with them, other then getting stuck in the mud. Not made for mud. Made 8 trips from FL, to WI and back.

not very happy with the defender

I have purchase nothing but Michelin's for my 2001 mdx and 2005 tacoma. Always used the "lattitude tour" version and loved them. Probably went through a total of 5 or 6 sets. Now discontinued I went with the defender LTX on my tacoma. They are very noisy. I have to turn up my radeo at 35 MPH. yes, they handle great, but I can't stand the noise. Now my mom needs a set of tires for her 2013 avalanche and I am not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

exception good tire but a little noisey

always the best tire when it is dry, but this tire preforms well in the rain. Got caught in the snow in West Virginia and the tire was not great but good enough to keep from slidding although I experience a little. the tire is a little noisey but once you get use to the noise its not irritating!

Well made tire

I have been employed by Ford dealer for many years and have experience with many different tire brands. Michelin tires have always been the best built tires in my experience.The initial quality is very consistent.Today I installed 4 MICHELIN® Defender® LTX® M/S 245/65R17 tires on my 2008 Ford Explorer. I used Hunter GSP9700 balancer. All tires had Road Force Measurement less than 11 lbs. By moving tires on the rim, I managed to drop Road Force Measurements to 2 lbs,9 lbs, 4 lbs and 8 lbs and matched front tires to 0 lbs Net Pull. And this is pretty heavy truck tire. The Road Force limit for P-metric and Euro-metric tires is 26 lbs.

If It's The Right Fit

I have a 2008 Chrysler 300 I've alway liked Michelin tires until the set I have now was installed on my car. I drive my car everyday - to work, church, errands, social time and traveling. This is the first replacement set since I bought my car in 2008. The tires have proved to be dependable though I don't like the loof of the "fit." The fit is off which throws the appearance off. What I mean by this is, the tire doesn't seem to fit around my wheel properly. The wheels stands out from the tire and I hate that. Before I buy anymore tires I will be sure of how they fit my wheel/rim.

Pleasantly Impressed

Bought these Latitude Tour HP tires since the original tires are no longer available for my Lincoln Aviator. Noticed that the ride is smoother and quieter than the old tires which were also Michelin. The handling on highways also feels better. I didn't really have any complaints about the old tires, but these are even better. I'm not sure if they would be as good off-road since the tread design seems slightly different than the old LTX tires, but that's not an issue for me. Haven't driven in snow yet, but so far I'm very happy with the results.

Cross Country and a summer in Colorado!

I purchased the Michelin’s for my Silverado used to travel to-and-from New England and Colorado. The trip is 2,100 miles each way and then we alternate between paved and gravel roads in CO. The tires give a smooth and comfortable ride traveling cross country. When in CO, they are rugged enough to provide good traction on gravel and in the mud. Yet they are versatile enough to corner beautifully on the paved mountain roads. Not my first set of Michelins; certainly not my last. In fact we have similar Michelins on our other cars.

These tires continue to ...

These tires continue to stand up to worste road conditions with quiete smoothness and ride comfort on my suburbans and now on my pickups. They perform extremely well in both rain and snow here in western Wa. where moutain highways and roads get deluged with both. I have used these tires while also living in the heat of Florida as well as the radical whether variations of Michigan. The heavily worn/noisy roads of western Washington have reduced the safe life of these tires to about 60-65,000 miles which is still more than double of most other tires here in wa. Michlin LTX M/S are the only tires I trust.

LTX M/S Ford Expedition

My 2003 Ford Expedition now has 160,000 miles and I am now on my second set of LTX M/S. I got about 85,000 miles on the last pair which was a little less then I expected. The winter handling in Minnesota, along with the traction during the off road driving I do make them well worth it. Great handling and fairly quiet too. They do instill confidence in less then ideal conditions.
