You get what you pay for.

The absolute best tire on the market in my opinion. I have always been a fan. Like many other drivers I have tried other brands when deals seemed to good to pass up, however, I have always returned to Michelin. The old saying, "you get what you pay for", is very true and aptly applies. These tires have the best ride and are extremely dependable. They will always be my first choice when new tires are needed.

Wears Well

I use this tire on my everyday use truck, it is great handling and quiet. It feels great in any weather wet or dry. My only complaint is the cost, I wish it was just a little more affordable. But most of all I do value my life and that of my family and you can't put a price on that.

I would buy these tires agaun

I brought my first set of Michelin tires when my Honda van needed new tires. Originally I brought another band but after a week I didn't like them. The Michelin dealer gave me full credit for the other ties toward the Michelin's. The van drove and handled so much better. When my daughter's car needed tires I brought Michelin and she couldn't believe how much better her car drove and handled. I put Michelin's on our Ford Escape and my wife really liked how much quieter the car drove. I'm goning to make sure the next car I buy has Michelin's on it.

I had these tires ...

I had these tires installed to replace the original equipment at 31,254 miles. I now have more than 68,500 miles with excellent tread. When they need replacing, I plan to use Michelin tires. I said N/A relating to off road use, since I probably have less than 800 off road miles.

Awesome tires

I have used this tire for 25 years on several vehicles. The tires are great in mud and snow. They also provide some of the best mileage I have ever experienced. My last set on my Land Rover Disco provided nearly 100 thousand miles of worry free driving. I only needed to replace them, with Michelin LTX M/S, because they wore out.

Just Love Michelin

Replaced my Michelin Latitude Tour HPs (after 50,000 miles) on my 2009 Acura MDX with the four new Defender LTX MS. Have had them for only a month now, but really like them. Smooth, quiet, and seem to hug the road well in wet and dry conditions. Have driven them on highway and city....perform well in both instances.

Got snow, off-road and freeways too?

The Jeep needed new shoes. What to do? Read reviews. Look at tires. Kick some of them. And then buy a set of Michelin LTX M/S. This Jeep doesn't do soccer games, but it does do snow -- wet, deep and powder plus all conditions inbetween. No wonder Eskimos have so many names for snow! The LTX tread pattern combined with siping provided a great balance in all those conditions, plus forays into some fairly serious rocky off-road trails with nary a slip. They are predictible in the twisties and quiet on freeway concrete, even with rain-groves. The wear-bars are starting to peek through and soon fall will be coming -- and the Jeep is getting some new shoes. Another set of LTXs, size 245/65-17

I currently have just ...

I currently have just under 40,000 miles on the tires and they still look and work great. They work in the wet, in the snow and they handle twisty roads with ease. I will definitely be getting another set when these finally wear out. Given the performance of these LTX's and the Pilot Sports on my other car, my wife's car will be getting Michelin Primacy MXV4's when she needs tires.

Very Noisy and Rough Riding

I have had 3 sets of Defenders on my 2006 4Runner and I they were great tires for 210,000 miles. I decided to buy a set for my 2018 Grand Cherokee. I made a expensive mistake. They are very loud and very rough riding. They have changed the whole demeaner of my SUV. I have only had them for a week and about 500 miles but I have talked to the dealer about changing tires. He suggested Latitude Touring which was the OEM tire on my Jeep. I only got 29,000 miles out of those. I really need to find a solution. Can I change out for the Premier series? Thanks

I drive with confidence

I replaced the tires on my Roadtrek 200 Motor home. I couldn't believe the difference in the handling, how it held the road. They made the ride much smoother with less rattle in the vehicle. I own 5 vehicles and in the future will use Michelin on all of them. I can drive with confidence!
