So far so good

I bought these tires before a trip to Florida in July. They are so much quieter and smoother than what was on my Ford Explorer. I only have 10,000 miles on them and they still look new. I will be buying these tires again when I need to and I will be replacing my truck tires with Michelin tires when they wear out.

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.

Never Go Down to Wear Bar

But the 55,000 mileage promise is way off of the 25,000 mile average life for my 2006 Porsche Cayenne S Titanium I,m about to put my 5th set of Latitudes as the car turns 155,000 miles. My driving is unremarkable in terrain and speed and cornering. Maybe Michelin owes me this set.

Great Tires!

My new truck came with Michelin tires when I bought it.. I was impressed by how long they lasted (almost 72000 miles. I probably could have gone more miles but decided with the traveling I do it was time. These tires are definitely "tread worthy" and that is why I just bought another set.

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.

91000 miles out of my tires

Put LTX MS tires on my 2001 Ford Excursion Rotated every other oil change and just had to put some others on now and when I started looking at tires the Michlens are so high priced but when I figured out that i got 91000 miles out of them they are cheaper than the others. Hope the LTX MS2 will get as god as the first ones did. Wish they would not have changed to to LTX AT the AT2 are not as good. Love the ride.

Very dependable tires

I drive a 2005 Lexus Lx470 and am on my 4th set of Michelin tour Hp. The tire wear exceeded my expectation. I average over 55,000 miles with routine tire rotation and balance. Where I live has four seasons and it handles all weather and off road very well The only minor negative is some road noise but I haven't found any tires that doesn't produce road noise.

On my last set of MS ...

On my last set of MS tires I did have one tire that seemed to growl when it was on the right front where I guess I could hear it better. Thinking the noice was a wheel bearing, I had asked the service technician to check the bearing but he said it was the tire.

Driving Better with New Latitude Tour HP

I felt so good that like to share my experience here. The difference in driving after changing 4 tires on my Lexus RX 350--it's not only very comfortable in driving but with also acoustically. I can hear better my music with less road noise. Great!!!

Extremely Solid Choice

I am extremely happy with the purchase of these tires. I have a 2wd Sierra 1500 crew cab and had Goodyear wranglers prior. These Michelins are nice and tall and have a great sidewall look. The highway tread pattern looks great and had performed better. The tires are quiet on the highway and feel sturdy overall maybe slightly harder than I was used to however the beef inspires confidence when towing our 4,500 lb. camper as there is no wallow and the generally feels more capable. I would definitely purchase again.
