I installed a set of ...

I installed a set of Michelins on my pickup when the original tires wore out at about 64,000 miles (I'm not a "hard driver", so I tend to get good mileage out of tires). I drove that set of Michelins for approximately 65,000 miles. These Michelins now have only 8,000 miles on them, but they are as excellent as the previous set. I bought my first set of Michelins in 1971, and with only one exception, I've bought only Michelins since then--and I've never had a faulty Michelin tire.

Excellent on road ...

Excellent on road manners...my 92 Jeep xj feels new again! Yes a bit more expensive up front, but wear pays for the extra expense...they wear like iron...I have Michelins on my work truck as well. My wife's Passat is also ready for some new rubber...she got 65k out of the last pair of Micheline MXV4 Pilots and I can probably wait till spring, but with winter coming, I am going to replace them...with Michelines of course!

You get what you pay for with Michelin

I hate buying tires period. I learned a valuable lesson when I was young about tires. I wanted a set of Michelin's for my 1969 Mustang. Not many 17 year olds can afford new tires, so I settled on another brand. I had troubles from day one with those tires. I went back to the tire dealer and I was offered the opportunity to upgrade to a set of Michelins. I had to borrow money to afford them but man were they worth it. 29 years and many sets of Michelins later, I wouldn't change a thing. My current set has 83,000 miles on them and they still have some life left in them. Wow. I love it when a product lives up to it's hype and advertising.

Exceeded the warranty!!!

I bought these tires and regulary aired and rotated them per the manufactures recomendations. The tires exceeded the waranty by 14,000 miles. I will never by another tire. The tires are quite on the roads and highways and grip well in all weather. I am now on my second set and they are performing well. I own a 3/4 ton pickup and regularly tow and haul heavy loads. Michelin knows tires and they have a customer for life. Keep up the good work Michelin.

LTX M/S Ford Expedition

My 2003 Ford Expedition now has 160,000 miles and I am now on my second set of LTX M/S. I got about 85,000 miles on the last pair which was a little less then I expected. The winter handling in Minnesota, along with the traction during the off road driving I do make them well worth it. Great handling and fairly quiet too. They do instill confidence in less then ideal conditions.

Tire vibration is bad

I have about 30,000 miles on these tires. I previously had 2 sets of LTX M/S 2 tires and they were great. I have never been able to get these tires to balance properly. On certain road surfaces, these tires vibrate and make the steering wheel shake. It's not all roads and not always at the same speeds. I will not buy these again. Please build the LTX M/S 2 again.

Much improved ride

Needed new tires for my 2018 Honda CR-V and wanted to improve the ride quality. These tires nailed it! Much improved in both the ride handling, smoothness, and lower road noise inside the vehicle. Also simply feels more sure-footed in the rain. Looking forward to seeing a difference in winter snow.

I drive a F250 and use to run bias tires because the sidewalls were tougher. I'm on about to get my third set of LT M/S. They are a great tire. Quiet and strong. I usually load about 1,000# to haul every day and the quiet smooth ride is to set example. Never had a tire failure with one and only cut one once. Highly recommended for a personal service vehicle.

most milage for the buck, great tire

I live in the in an area that has chip seal roads. these are the most unforgiving roads on tires. I have 2 4x4 autos. the least milage I have recevied was 21000 miles on a set of tires, not Michelin. next set when needed on my auto will be the Michelin as I know the result from using Michelin. also installed Michelin on my fathers suberu, still on after many miles and in good shape. thank you-

As good as I expected

After considerable research for replacement tires on my SUV, I selected the Michelin LTX M/S. The tires are relatively quite on the freeway and their tread design gives me a feeling of confidence in the curves. Very nice tires. Worth a little extra cost.
