Great Tire!

Tires wear excellent. Side walls look brand new. 68k and still tread life. Better to spend the dollars on a superior tire than save a dollar on less expensive tire that does not even compare. Ridgeline ride is great. Handles very smooth. Braking is good. Looking at moving up to Latitude for our next set of Michelin Tires. Have Michelin tires on our Honda Civic and if I can find tires we will put them on our Goldwing. Michelin makes great tires that last.

Not what it first appears to be.

This tire has performed very well on my E-350 van. The only drawback to date has been the break in period for tire squirm. The tall tread pattern made for soft steering. It took approximately 1,000 miles of driving to break in the tire and now it is functioning much like I had expected.

2 decades of Michelins & still happy

when our Jeep needed new tires, research on quality, safety, performance and overall value led us to Michelin. 18 years later and 3 more sets of Michelins, still happy and satisfied with the original choice and every choice in between. would never consider another tire - just the safety reputation alone is worth it, but to get the performance, durability and ride comfort in addition, there just aren't better tires on the market... period.

I live in northern Maine and installed these on my Jeep Wrangler in late summer. The interstate up here has some very deep grooves in the road and hydroplaning is an issue in even moderate rain. The tires performed very well going through the pooled water on the roadway as I never felt any loss of traction with the road surface. Winter is just starting but for the first couple of storms and icy conditions that were left behind the tires again performed well. I already have about 8,000 miles on them and they are wearing just fine so far. I would definitely purchase these again.

Great Tires

I recently bought four LT-MX tires for my 2011 Honda Pilot. The Honda dealer and tire dealer recommended the Latitude tire due to its smooth ride, comfort, mileage, and low noise. However, my occasional driving requires more grip, so I chose the LT-MX. My decision was largely based upon †he positive comments made by previous owners of these tires for similar vehicles and types of driving. I noticed an immediate difference in the ride from the original factory tires. The ride was smooth, steady, and not noisy at all. I plan on getting another set, when these tires are no longer serviceable.

Cheapest Tire for your Money

I did not particularily like using that title but it is true. If you take the total miles you will get from a set of Michelins and divide by the cost it is the cheapest tire per mile on the market. My last set I got 120k on my Ford F150, I could have easily put on 2-3 sets of competitor brands of tires. Besides that these tires handle real well and are excellent in the Rain. It makes you feel real safe when running these Michelin LTX M/S. How could I ever buy another set of tires without considering Michelins for myself or family. I have told many a friend about my experience with Michelin Tires and the sets I have purchased thru the years,which haven't been many? I may be your best salesman.

Tires only lasted 30K miles

Have these tires due to 70K mile warranty. At 20K miles, noticed extreme wear on the front. Realized had not completed rotation. Began rotating tires, but to no avail. Tread worn completely across entire tire on 2 of them. 2 remaining tires also low on tread. Likely 10K left on those. Have bought at least 5 other sets of Michelin’s (LTX MS & LTX MS2). All lasted at least as long as the warranty. Not these. Tire dealer said nothing can be done for warranty. Pretty disappointing. These tires are not cheap.

Michelin LTX M/S

The Michelin LTX M/S tires on my truck have been absolutely fabulous. They have worn really well. Obviously, I have kept them rotated as prescribed, but that goes for any tire. I would highly recommend the LTX M/S to anyone. They are well worth what I paid for them.

Great Tires with Outstanding Road Noise Suppression & Wet Traction

Third set of the Defender LTX M/S tires on two diesel pickups used to tow approximately 15,000 # fifth wheels. They are quiet, great wet traction and decent in snow. These tires are not designed to routinely run up and down wet dirt/muddy roads, through fields or Upper Peninsula winters. Love these tires and that is why I am a repeat customer. As with any brand & model tire the vehicle must be in alignment to include the frame or there will be abnormal wear. As with any brand & model tire if the tires are not properly inflated there will be abnormal wear. Proper inflation does not mean pressuring the tire to the maximum number located on the sidewall either.

I just returned from an ...

I just returned from an off road trip in the PA mountains with a couple of Jeep buddies. It had rained and snowed the day prior and I was expecting to have trouble driving the logging trails with these tires. I was pleasntly supprised with the performance under these conditions. Granted these are not full off road tires but, I went thru alot of muddy, steep elevation changes with no traction problems. The tow ropes stayed in the Jeep. I use these tires for 99% on road use and they provide great mileage with a confortable ride. I was just suprised as to how well they performed under a very challenging condition. Thank you Michelin for bringing out the hidden goat in my suburban Jeep.
