Trouble-free

Great tires. But no longer available for 15-inch wheels.

Very Dissappointed in these tires! Horrible Vibrations!

Michelin devotee for 30 years. Put these on my F250 truck to replace previous LTX/MS tires since these were no longer available and the new Defender line was touted as soooo much better. Immediately these tires shook my vehicle as though they were unbalanced. I had them rechecked for and they were properly balanced. Secondly, these tires also vibrate on paved roads as if they were knobby style tires or if the lug nuts were loose. They make it seem as though something is wrong with my vehicle.I hate these tires and now I'm stuck with them. I have less than 1000 miles on them.Not up to the quality of what Michelin has previously stood for.

MICHELIN Defender LTX M/S

We have been experiencing very poor driving conditions, however, our Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires have been excellent in assisting with our driving safety. Everyone should drive according to the conditions no matter what type of tires your car has on it. Our Michelin's are excellent in every way. Our Lexus RX350 has better control since we had our Michelin's put on. We simply feel safer.

MICHELIN® Defender® LTX® M/S are the BEST!

I drive a Chevrolet Silverado 3500 Dually... 6 Tires... I am past the guaranteed 50,000 miles and will surpass the 70,000 miles guaranteed for normal passenger cars(smaller vehicles). I found excellent traction in almost all situations, and perfect tread wear(rotated every oil change). Buy these tires!

Smooth and quiet

On the drive home from the shop I could tell these are my favorite all season tires I have ever owned. There are quieter than I had hoped for, but I was surprised how much smoother the drive was, something I had not noticed in similar range tires that I have owned. The last time I felt the tires made a big difference was we with X-Ice tires.

Great tires

Bought these tires about 2 weeks ago for my Toyota Tacoma (2001). 265/75 R16! My truck rides so much smoother now and the tires are really quiet! The steering is easier too! We had a couple of hard rains here and the tires were great in it! They seem to grip the road so much better now (dry pavement)! Now if they last as long as stated, you must buy these tires!

Great tires, I have run two sets, looking for my third!

I run these tires on my Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 Cummins Quad Cab. It's my second set now , I get about 80,000 km's out of them now and I'm just looking here to see size options as I'm going to need to replace them before the snow flys. I have considered other tires but in the end I'm not prepared to put up with any tire noise or ride issues. These Defenders are amazing, quiet, smooth, accurate, great traction in wet, snow, mud. Just need to find a dealer that can get me a good price as they are expensive but they are worth it for sure. My truck was stock with 265-70-17, but I have been running 285-70-17 with amazing results, my truck when not pulling a trailer will get 10.2 Lphkm, about 29 mpg at 110 kph.

Grumpy from Simi Valley, CA

Been riding on Michelin LTX MS and MS2 tires for over 30 years. Love the deep tread and handling. Whether I'm driving my 03 Suburban, 04 Jeep , or my 05 RV with 22.5 XZE and now XZE2 highway tires they all handle well in all types of weather including snow and ice. Even the XZE's handle well in a foot of snow and I really appreciate the high scrub sidewalls. Keep up the good work. Thank you.

Great tire! Deep tread but amazingly quiet

Did the reasearch and selected this tire sight unseen for my Ford Expedition. When I saw the tire in person I was concerned the aggressive tread would be noisy. So glad I didn't. The Defender LTX's are the quietest tires I've ever owned, and have excellent grip dry, wet, and even in snow.
