Most dependable tires on the market.

I won't buy any other tires. The Michelins that I replaced on my GMC Sierra truck had 101,000 miles and had plenty of tread remaining. The new Michelins are amazing and the ride is even better than before with the 3 year old set. I'm a Michelin tire fan for life. Getting ready to put a new set on my GMC Yukon XL.

One of our vehicles is a ...

One of our vehicles is a Buick Rainer CXL-V8, all wheel drive. The first 71,000 miles were on the "factory Michelins" with no problems. My wife travels with the Rainer for work, so wanted peace of mind for the next 70,000+ miles. We are now 40,000 miles into the new Michelins with no problems, a good ride and excellant wear. Two of our vehicles are over 105,000 miles, one with Michelins ( and extremely happy ) and one waiting for a good set of Michelins. The 3rd vehicle is at 215,000 miles, riding on its 3rd set of Michelin tires. The ONLY tire to My vehicles.

The Best of the best

I have been buying Michelin tires for over 45 years. This is the set has lasted 3 years and perform as good as the first day. The set before this lasted over 9 years. They just don't wear out. If you keep them rotated and balanced and alinement you will get long tread life from them. I love the performance in both on and off the road because I drive up to the ranch on dirt and gravel roads. These tires are the best tire on the market today and are the best I have ever owned. They are smooth and quiet riding on the highway. Don't be fooled by moucho looking brands these tires will out perform any other brand hands down you can take my word on that. I have had very heavy loads in my truck and they handle them very well. These are the best tires made in the world.

Excellent Quality and Ride

The Michelin Defender LTX are great quality tires and have a luxury ride. I have purchased my second set of these tires. The first set had almost 100,000 miles on them and still were in usable condition. I highly recommend these tires for high mileage and smooth ride.

Installed these on my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee

I had installed these on my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee a week ago after running on the factory tires. These are very quiet tires and handle great in wet weather. I like the smooth soft ride these tires give. I am a very happy customer. Thanks Michelin.

Exceptional Performance, but Durability Falls Short of Expectations

I've been using Michelin LATITUDE HP tires on my 2022 Ford Edge (SEL) since they came factory-installed, and overall, they've exceeded my expectations. Having always relied on dedicated summer and winter tires, I was initially skeptical about all-season options, but these proved exceptional. They handle northern winters impressively, maintaining stability in extreme cold and deep snow, even on difficult roads—something I never expected from anything other than true winter tires. That said, their longevity is a concern. Despite Michelin's 55K-mile warranty, my tires are completely worn out at just 45K miles. This is particularly frustrating because my vehicle is a family car, primarily driven by my wife in the most careful manner—no harsh braking, sudden acceleration, or aggressive maneuvers. Regular maintenance and tire rotations ensured even wear, yet they still fell short of the expected lifespan. Many competitors offer warranties up to 80K miles, and I've seen numerous reviews highlighting similar concerns. I truly appreciate the comfort, grip, and performance these tires provide, but I hope Michelin takes durability concerns seriously and ensures that warranty expectations align with real-world results. If this is a widespread issue, it may be worth reconsidering how these tires are marketed and what warranty is offered. That said, if Michelin is willing to address this situation and stand behind its product, I would be happy to reconsider my rating and continue trusting the brand.

Great tire for certain vehicles

I purchased these tires for a Escape Hybrid in November. These tires replaced the Michelin Lattitude Tour series (which is no longer offered in this size) based on Michelin's recommendations. These tires are essentially a light truck tire with extra load capacity, so the ride quality is notably harsh and there is more tread noise at low speeds. The total rolling resistance is considerably higher, lowering the Average Fuel Economy on the Escape by over 8 MPG. This tire is a good choice for light trucks and larger heavier SUV's, but a poor choice for smaller SUV's or hybrids.

Thr best tires I've had on a vehicle

Chevrolet put these on when two sets of the tires that came on the vehicle when new failed at 7000 miles. Have had them on now for nearly 97,000 miles just ordered another set for my Chevrolet High Country Silverado. Ride is superior to any make of tire I've had, durability is unsurpassed as you can see by the milage and handeling is great, especially on wet roads, don't know if you can get them to hydroplane in wet conditions. They lack a little in snow and ice but preform well if you just slow down like you should do anyway! Had only 1 flat in all the miles driven. Great security for my wife and I! Keep up the good work Michelin!!!

I bought a set of Michelin Latitude Tour HP (215/65R16) in May 2014 for my '05 XC70. The improvement in handling is tremendous. I cannot comment on how the tires wear since I've been driving on them for only 6 weeks, but am very happy with the overall and high speed handling they provide.

Best tires I have ever owned

I bought 4 new tires from my local car dealer. The tires perform in all types of weather with excellent grip. In addition, the tires have given me great wear, they currently have 45,000 miles and still show a significant amount of tread. There is no road tire noise of any kind and I get great mileage. So, in summary, very safe, great wear, no noise, great mileage and no required maintenance (other than allignment). Yes, I will buy them again.
