Defender LTX M/S Tires

I was told that these tires could be put on my Ford Taurus SEL, He said theses tires were for a car, then I told him that LTX means for Light Truck. I love the tires and they handle excellant, but I still have my doubts about these tires being for a car. So you tell me Michelin.

Rick, there are several tires that would work well on your Ford Taurus SEL, depending on your driving style. Our records indicate we have discussed several options with you other than the Defender LTX M/S. Should you have additional questions, you can contact us at 866-866-6605.

Not what it first appears to be.

This tire has performed very well on my E-350 van. The only drawback to date has been the break in period for tire squirm. The tall tread pattern made for soft steering. It took approximately 1,000 miles of driving to break in the tire and now it is functioning much like I had expected.

Safety for the long haul

We had these on our Chevy Trailblazer, because I had previously had this series on another vehicle, and was very pleased with the traction in snow. Again, these never disappointed me and better yet, we got 80,000 miles out of them, and they wore evenly all the way across the tread, and remained very effective until they simply had no tread left. Best set of tires I have ever had.

Past performance makes the choise easier

Have had Michelin on many vehicles over the past years, 2 weeks ago put new ones on my wifes suv and today getting new ones on my S 10 pick up. I like the wear, performance and overall constrution, you get what you pay for! There was no need to compare with other brands, my past experience and auto back ground makes the choise simple, Michelin!

The vehicle that the ...

The vehicle that the tires are used on is primarily my wife's car. She is a nurse who works the night shift (12hrs) and drives at night and in the early morning hours. My chief priorty is for her safety which I believe is provided through the great road handling abilities of the Michelin tires. In Oregon during the winter months we have a substantial amount of rain and the Michelin tires are designed to easily disperse the water off the edge of the tires. Because of this safety feature there is less likelihood of hydroplaning, especially when it is dark out and you can't see the standing water on the freeway or surface streets. Also because of this design feature, it eleminates the necessity of going to the additional expense of having the tire sipped. There was also a noticeable difference in the handling and performance of the Michelin tires. For safety, performance, and comfort you won't find a better tire in the industry. Period!

Dependable LT/crossover tire

I have put about 30,000 miles on Defender LTX M/S in all weather and they handle very well on my Honda Pilot. Stop wining about noise! These are noisier than passenger rated tires as these tires are light truck/crossover tires and are able to handle higher weights and loads. I run them about 4 lbs higher pressure than the SUV door sticker for higher vehicle load per the Michelin spec.

The only compaint I have is that one of the tires failed less than 2 weeks after purchase. Traveling 65 mph on a straight stretch, my drive wheel tire had a side wall blow-out. This could have proved fatal had it been non-straight stretch road. However, since it's replacement there has been no problem and we are more than satisfied with them.

Safe,Trustworthy Company and Product

Along with a great history dating back many years, Michelin is still making a safe and reliable product that can be trusted on any vehicle. When I purchased the vechile, it had Michelin tires already on it. When it time for replacement tires, I wanted the same reliable tires that gave me 60,000 miles even though the rating on the original tires where 40,000,so a got 20,000 miles more out of the tire and I could of still kept going on them. Living in Michigan, the roads and weather where some of the most extreme so I experienced driving on them through all four seasons without one problem. Keep up the good work Michelin.

Great tire for my Suburban...

End of tire thread's review ! After 20 months on our 2010 Chevy Suburban service vehicle and 135000 miles of New England Driving conditions these definitely are the best tires we ever had on vehicle. ( lots of Highway driving some occasional dirt roads ) Rotated as recommended and kept correct PSI. These tires IMO are the best !!!!
