Pretty disappointing tire

Have had these tires for 6 years now on a 2002 Nissan Xterra. Got them for the mileage warranty and the supposed superior traction. These tires have about 30,000 miles on them and only have 4/32nds left of tread. Definitely did not make the 70,000 miles. They never got any flats though. They have been decent tires in wet weather and snow, but nowhere near dedicated snow tires. They were fairly quiet brand new, but got much louder as they wore down. After 6 years and being on a car that is outside almost all the time, they have developed a good amount of age cracking which is expected from really any tire that sits out in the sun, rain, heat, and cold like they do. For the price of the tire, though, you can get other tires that are nearly the same for much less money. I don't think I'll purchase another set of these tires.

I came to know about ...

I came to know about Michelin LTX's while I was the shop forman at a large dealership dealing with alot of complaints about front tires whitling off on the edges. After checking front ends for alignments issues still had problems with competors tires replaced them with Michelin LTX and problem went away. I belive it is due to the excelent sidewall constrution of the tire preventing tire rollover, this also is why Michelin is the only tire I will put on my vehicles because the better the sidewall constrution, the better the ride .

Best tire I've used yet

Replaced factory 4Runner tires with these and love them. Smooth, quiet, with good traction. My only complaint is there is not a 275/70/17 option which would allow a clean fit without having to modify the 4Runner at all, which is necessary with the 285s. If you made a 275/70/17 it would definitely be my next set after these.

Purchased these in the LT 245/75 R16E for a GMC 2500 HD.These replaced the factory tires with 48,000 miles on the truck.Was very pleased with every aspect of this tire.I tow a 12,000 lb. fifthwheel camper aprox. 2,000 miles a year and also work in the road construction industry statewide in Wisconsin so most every road condition possible was thrown on these tires.Tire wear was very uniform with little to no cupping on front tire edges when rotation time comes,one time past due at 9,000 miles.Michelin passes with flying colors with this tire performing this well on a truck that weighs 7,000 lb. empty.

Proven Quality and Endurance

This tire has proven itself to me on the roads of the Southeast, and I can strongly recommend this tire for your own Light Truck/ SUV! I have driven the previous set for 141,000 miles before recently changing the set of four. I have no reservations in saying that this is the only tire I will own. Stopping distances are less, as well as curve stability are only two of the benefits you can expect from these tires!

LTX MS2

This tire is very quiet and provides an excellent ride. I thought this tire would be better in snow than it is. It's does not provide good traction in light or deep snow which is why I bought this tire in the first place. Little disappointed with the snow performance but overall a pretty good tire. This tires tread is not aggressive enough for what I need it for.

Amazing tires

This is my third set of the LTX MS tires. My daughter and I both have these on our SUVs my husband has the AT2's on his Excursion which he absolutely loves! I also have a blazer with the LTX MS , and have Michalin passenger tires on my Honda Accord! When I go to the tire shop for new tires they always try to sell me a different brand and I stop them in their tracks and say I only want Michelin tires! They have a smooth comfortable ride and they last a very long time well over 60,000 miles!

Great tire

Installed on my new 2012 Chevy Conversion Van. I put 20,000 Miles on since last Aug 22nd. Did a long trip tp CA. DROVE 10,000 Miles. Tire looks great on my van they really fill the wheel well. The ride was great and they still look like new. Very satisfied with this tire and will buy them again.

I had purchased some for my Suburban and planned to keep the vehicle until the tires wore out. The vehicle wore out before the tires did. When my tires needed to be replaced on my next vehicle I did not hesitate to replace them with Michelin. I've got almost as many miles on them as I did on the original tires and they have shown very little wear.

Excellent tires

Tires have been on this vehicle for two weeks tops. first bad ice/snow storm we got 2/4/2022 upstate ny. WOW this vehicle performed 110% didn’t slide all over even when I tried to make it loose traction, last month we had snow and I was running the stock Bridgestone dueler tires that came with the vehicle. What a joke them tires are. If Michelin continue to make these tires my 2022 highlander will soon get a brand new pair of defenders LTX m/s. I’m probably just going to remove the Goodyear tires that came with the vehicle. Great job Michelin..
