Great Tire

I have had several sets of Michelins over the years and they have all been good tires, but these Defender LTX M/S are the best so far. I ran the PSI up to 40 -it was set at 32 from the installer and that made a big difference. I have not used them in snow yet but took a couple 800 miles trips and hit a lot of rain and sun at speed. These tires make my truck feel like a train- glued to the road...hit 1 to 2 inch pools of water on the interstate and they sliced right through it. Very comfortable ride and no excess noise. The only downside is I think I lost a MPG or two on the highway - but these are for a truck, if you want MPG your driving the wrong vehicle. Buy these tires you will not be sorry.

Thanks so much for the kind words A Guy, we appreciate your loyalty! In reference to your MPG, new tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires. As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases. Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve.

I would definately buy these tires again

I now have over 75,000 miles on these tires and they're still in good shape. They are quiet and have never had any tire noise which seems to be more and more common these days. I will replace these tires when needed with the exact same ones and am certain I will have great service from them as well.

Nothing but Michelin

Our vehicles (17+" tires) all have Michelin tires. Purchased smaller used vehcile (15") with non-Michelin but quickly forced to replace. Immediately had little or no road noise, tail-fishing or bumpy ride! The smaller tires are as excellent as their bigger "siblings"!!

Michelin is all we buy!

Over the years we've tried other tires that were supposed to be equal to Michelin, but we never got the wear out of them like we should. We had our first set of Michelins on our minivan and now are on our second set on our full size E-150. Nothing wears as well. Have considered trying others again, but we know what we get in Michelins - long wear and quality. We're customers for life.

Best tire I have ever ...

Best tire I have ever owned. I have gotten between 75k and 110k out of every set I've owned. Great grip on dry/wet/snow until about the last 20% of tread left on the tires, then a little slick on wet/snowy roads (but that is expected with any tire). Never had any quality issues with the five sets I've owned. I have used these tires on various 2WD light trucks with no complaints. Worth every penny.

Solid and Proven Tire for the Long Run

This tire was recommended by my retailer on the basis of many satisfying customers over many years and it reputation for long wear. I was inclined to buy a more energy efficient Michelin like Latitude for gas savings but was told the LTX's wear noticeably longer and have winter traction advantages so I went with them and will likely spend more on gas and less on tires. I was not able to calculate break even points but know that I lost 1mpg compared to the last tires (not Michelins) on my vehicle. Overall I am very satisfied. I have 25000 miles on them on my Highlander with 9/32nds of tread left so it looks like I can expect about 75000 miles.

The Best tire I have owned

This is an excellent tire. I am on my second set and the tire wears for over 75,000. There is no area that this tire is average, excellent is all area's. You can buy this tire and forget about problems with tires or problems in driving do to tire limitations.

LTX M/S - Quite simply the best!

I have been on Michelin's for years and was glad when the non-Michelin dealer tires had to be replaced on my Lexus RX. My local Lexus dealer recommended the LTX M/S and I had excellent prior experience with Michelin LTX tires on other SUVs. Handles great navigating Colorado's mountain passes, even during major snow events. I have pulled other vehicles out of snow banks and ditches as these tires really grip in all kinds of conditions. Very comfortable, smooth ride on dry roads and over long trips. A great all-season tire for paved and dirt roads. Coming up on 30K miles and they still look like-new with even tread-wear. I am diligent about rotating and balancing at recommended mileage intervals.

I have owned 3 Yukons ...

I have owned 3 Yukons over the past 15 yrs. I have shod them with Michelin LTX's every time. These tires are great, terrific wear and great traction. They ride great and rarely need rebalancing due to vibration and I am picky on wheel vibration. I have been so impressed by the LTX that when I traded for my last new Yukon I insisted the dealer replace the OEM tires wih my 20,000 mi old LTX's or the deal was off. They did. They may cost a bit more upfront but their long term performance offers greater cost benefit.
