One more example of a great tire

Vacation this year was to Florida and as we were driving through Georgia we encountered a series of very heavy rain storms. the rain was heavy enough to slow traffic to 30 miles and below on I-75. when we got to our destination for that night the second vehicle that we were traveling with was remarking about all the hydroplaning that they had experienced. we were surprised because we had not experienced any even though there were times there was water on the highway. I attribute this to my Michelin tires and I am glad that they always keep me and my family safe.

I have used other brands ...

I have used other brands of tires in the past and they haven't lasted as long as the Michelin's. I had them on my 1994 S-10 4WD Blazer and they lasted seven years for me and they will last probably another year or two for the person that I sold it too this past summer. Michelin tires seem to be the best for sidewall stability and long tread life. I will buy some again soon when I can save up enough money for the LTX M/S^2 LT285/70/R17 for my Expedition.

Love Hate Relationship

This is one of the best tires anywhere for my 2014 MDX. But, like some reviewers, mine got very noisy. I bought my daughter a set for her same year MDX, and her's never got noisy. When you read the reviews, you realize that some consider them great and others consider them second rate. Quality control?

I have a very heavy (9500 ...

I have a very heavy (9500 pounds) one-ton van converted to a self-contained RV, and with over a ton on each corner, blowouts are something I wanted to avoid. These tires have done their job for the last five years in a commendable fashion. In addition to no problems with them, the fuel economy, smoothness, and braking are so good that I have no complaints at all. I'm replacing them with another set after 75,000 blessedly uneventful miles.

The only tire that my family and I buy.

Michelin Tires have become the standard tire of choice for my family's vehicles. The tread wear is excellent and in fact my daughter exceeded the tire tread warranty by 15,000 mile on her Chevy Equinox. The tires ride very smooth and quiet. I have confidence in the tires whether driving in and around town or out of town vacations.

Excellent Truck tire

This is the second set of these tires I have purchased for my 2002 Chevy Silverado. These tire have out performed any other tire I have used in the past. They wear very well, provide a smooth and quiet ride and perform quit well in the rain and snowy climate of northeast Ohio. I make it a point that I only purchase Michelin tires as replacement tires for all my vehicles. I highly recommend these tires to anybody. If your on the bubble about a purchase try these you will not be disappointed.

Best light truck tires ...

Best light truck tires I've ever owned and I've tried 7 different brands/models. What most stands out is the wet weather performance and tread life - which are usually mutaully exclusive. I have 18,500 more miles that any previous tire. No flats / no problems / no degradation over time. Great snow performance and queit.

My local service station ...

My local service station talked me into another major brand of tire to replace my worn LTX Michelins. I developed a wobble in the front end of my Chevy Tahoe that I never had before. They balanced the tires, rotated them, did an alignment, shocks, etc. and could not cure the problem. Finally they replaced the tires with a new set of the same brand and I still had the wobble. I finally took my truck to a Chevy dealer and they told me the tires were out of round. I replaced the tires with new Michelin LTX M/Ss and never had the problem again. That was 70,000 mile ago and they're still in great shape. I'll always use Michelin. Great tires!

Poor tire for dirt road usage.

I have these tires on my 06 4X4 Dodge Diesel and they are not at all to be used on regular dirt roads (not off-roading). I have gotten two flats where the tires were penetrated by a rock. Too expensive for the quality of tire. This tire is designed for people that never get off the highway for anything.
