On outside edge of tires there's a lot of excess rubber left on the tires from the manufacturing process . I've been a customer for over 20 years . And always purchase mich defenders . They never look like this

I am on my 4th set of tires on my truck (317,568 miles). The original tires went 72,000 miles, my michelin tires ride smother, handel better in the winter, and lasted over 81,000 miles per set.

We got 120,000 on the first set and we have 80,000 already on the second set on our 1998 Ford Explorer. We expect to get 120,000 + on the second set of these tires. I rotate and balanced the tires every 5,000 miles.

My last three sets of tires on a Ram 2500 have been Defender LTX M/S because of wet weather performance. I can find no equal, but I never get 50k, more like 30-40k and I'm easy on tires always going for fuel economy.

Great riding tire on a large SUV. Very smooth ride, stable and great handling. Looks good for a very large tire. Only weakness would be limited life of mileage wear.

Have about 1000 miles on the tires. Highly recommend. Quiet, tracks straight, and excited to have some substantial mileage for a change. Switched out Bridgestone duelers. Only had 40,000 and need to replace.

Excellent wet traction. Unintentially ran over a brick on the expressway and no tire problems - can't even see a mark on the tire but there was a loud noise under the car upon contact. Thanks Michelin!

I travel quite a bit selling wood chippers and stumpgrinders. We use the LTX M/S exclusively on our company trucks. Never any quality or performance issues...even towing 12,000lbs in traffic, in the snow!

Love this product. Provides a very quite ride with great durability. Had a previous set prior to my current set and stayed with them because they were such great performers.

just brought the tire they ride like am on a cloud.my use 2011 titan4x4 with only 67403 mi on it ride better then it has every rode if they make it for 70000 I will be happy
