Best Tire Ever

Great tires! They are worth the couple of extra $ to move up to this grade of tire. Quiet and smooth ride. Outstanding handling in all road conditions including rain, snow and ice. Haven't found a thing that I don't like. I've recommended these tires to friends.

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.

Very Pleased

I purchased these LTX M/S tires for my 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 and when I sold it with 40K + miles they did not look used at all. These tires are quiet and run smooth, thus I just bought another set for my 2004 Grand Cherokee Limited 4x4. I highly recommend these tires

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.

Great tire. Long life and great ride

I installed these tires on my 1999 Chevrolet Silverado and I drive about 12,000 miles per year for various purposes (work, fun, home projects and etc). This is the 4th set of Michelin tires I have purchased for various vehicles and have been very satisified with every set. The ride is smooth and the tire life is exceptional. The set I replaced on my current truck had about 95,000 miles on them. The tires cost more than about all the others out there but, when they last that long they are worth it. I highly recommend them.

Tire replacement

You replaced my LTX tires under Warranty, these fit on a 2003 ford E250 cargo van, I always got excellent mileage out of these tires includeing the ones you recalled from me, we replaced these on 239,450 miles, I have 270,418 miles on van at present and the only have 4//32 0f tire tread left, shouldn`t wore down this fast, as I keep my tires balanced and rotated every 5000 miles for life extention . they now have only 30,968 miles on them, this van is on the road and expressway frequently. just curious if this was normal mileage , your warranty states this is a 70,000 mile tire, if so I am 4/32 from being bald, thank you

Excellent pickup truck tire!

Awesome all season traction. These replaced my worn out AT2 tires that I also liked. When the new defenders were installed, I noted an average 28 to 32 km gain per tank of fuel for my truck. I'm very satisfied with my purchase and would recommend them for any light duty pickup truck owner

Wow

Read several reviews that said these tires were too noisy. So I was a little worried. This worry was dashed as I drove from the store to the freeway and stretched my legs. It was a smooth and quiet ride. A huge improvement over the previous Bridgestones. So, the hype was misleading. Very pleased.

Great All-Around Tire!

These have been an excellent tire for bonding with the road whether the roads are dry, wet or snow covered. They are quiet and have great wear. I have them on my vehicles and had them installed on my kids vehicles. Worth the investment. Provides peace of mind. I highly recommend !

LTX M/S Tires Are Great!

I purchased four LTX M/S tires approximately 18 months ago. Since then, I have put approximately 15,000 miles on them. To date, the tires have consistently given us a smooth ride and are wearing quite well. Based upon the price I paid for these four tires, I can definitely state that I am receiving a good value for the price I paid.
