Faith In Four

I purchased this very set 7 yrs ago for my '95 Z-71 SLE GMC which has 270,000 plus miles and never been happier with a single set of tires. I have driven these tires for 73,000 miles and still have 3/16 thread left on them. Being the frist owner of this truck (and yes, it is in immaculate condition all original), it has never been off road, but it has been thru some severe snow storms and have passed several trucks when roads have been bad. As far as rain, I've never been more confident in a set of Michelin tires, than these.

These tires are the best

I have 166,000 miles on my GMC Envoy and I have only used Michelin tires (2 sets, That's 85,000 miles for each set) I am going to buy another set before winter. They make the ride the best, and you cant beat the mileage you get on these tires. I have nothing but good things to say about Michelins.

Great tires for a great price..

I use these tires on my 4 x 4 for every day use, traveling and work. These tires are fantastic as they are a replacement from other Michelin tires. Received 15% more use out of the tread than their rating suggested. Great ride and reliability. These tires are perfect for year round use, rain, snow, and traveling long distances.

This is my third set

I drive 35,000-40,000 miles per year. I am also an avid hunter and spend a fair amount of time off-road. In the past, I would opt for a more aggressive tread design than the LTXMS, but was always disappointed in the life span of the tires. I finally made the decision to go with a tire that would give me more economy on the road as well as a longer tread life and the LTXMS has been a great choice. I have noticed very little difference in my vehicle's (GMC 2500) off road capabilities and have been totally satisfied with the tread life. I have had a total of three sets of the LTXMS's on two trucks, and see no reason to alter this strategy. These are great tires!

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!

88K problem free

These were the original tires that came with the vehicle. There was still tread on the tires after 88,000 miles. The tread wear indicators had not yet shown. I keep my tires inflated at 34 psi and rotate them twice a year. I decided to replace them with the same Michelin tire as came from Honda with the new truck because of the excellent performance. I could have continued to drive on the tires for another 6-12 mos, but because I will be traveling more than usual this summer I decided to replace them now. Great all weather tire. I live in central Ohio. This winter I had no problems in snow even though the tires had 80K+ miles on them.

Excellent ride, but.......................

I have 30k on these tires and they wore abnormally down the middle, despite keeping proper air pressure and rotating them. The original LTX M/S2 tires were the best tire I ever owned and what made me a Michelin customer. These new Defenders may look like the old design, but are clearly inferior.

Smooth ride, excellent steering response.

Bought these tires about 4 months ago. They have about 5k miles so far. They are so much smoother and better steering response than the Toyos that came on vehicle. I have had two other sets of these on other vehicles in the past. I’m sure these will deliver the same excellent quality my others have. They are a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.
