The Best tire I ever had on my truck!!!!

I bought 4-new Michelin LTX M/S tires when I replace original tires from my Ford F150 at 62,000 miles. Now my Ford truck has 162,000 miles and my Michelin tires still going strong! The tires have over100,000 milles!!!!!!!!!!! & looks like it will last another 100,000 miles. I'm in a constuction field and I drive my truck to work carrying lot of toool & constuction materials. The Michelin tires are the best tires I ever had and I highly recommend to everyone. The Simply the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Less then perfect

This is my second set and by far these are less then great, with only 36,000 miles on them they slip (hydroplane) when there is a little water on the road and they slip at start up even on dry roads. I have them rotated every 5,000 miles, I check and correct tire pressure every 30 days, I am wondering if the rubber is now a harder substance, hopefully they make it to 70,000 miles

Thanks for the honest feedback. Sounds like you’ve been taking great care of your tires, so we totally get your frustration. The Defender LTX M/S is designed for long-lasting traction, but performance can vary depending on wear, road conditions, and vehicle setup. We’d recommend having a local dealer take a look to see what’s going on. And if you want to chat with us directly, feel free to call 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST) —we’re happy to help!

Excellent

Best tire brand ever. I've purchased at least 5 sets over the years. It started when I couldn't get the vibration out one of my trucks, my tire guy said try Michelin tires. That solved the issue and I got 90000 miles out of that set. It's the only tire I'll ever buy for safety and peace of mind.

I had two trucks with these tires. A Dodge Ram half ton pick-up and a Ford Econoline Van. Both had above average wear with proper maintenance (I rotated and check air pressures along with wheel balancing). Comfort and handling was excellent on local streets, the highway, snow storms, you name it.

Not as good as they used to be

This is my third set of LTX/MS tires. the first two were great, over 60,000 miles, but this set has sidewall cracks after 25,000 miles. I don't hit curbs, so I don't know why they are forming. I want to buy a new set, but need more than 25,000 miles for the price I paid.

Best Tire Ever

Great tires! They are worth the couple of extra $ to move up to this grade of tire. Quiet and smooth ride. Outstanding handling in all road conditions including rain, snow and ice. Haven't found a thing that I don't like. I've recommended these tires to friends.

LTS M/S

Had my LTX M/S tires for a year. They are fantastic! I've probably put 10,000 miles on them and they still look new. I've bought many sets of Michelin over the years and they've all stood up well for distance driving and local driving. I live in the NC mountains, so they really have to grip a lot of curbs--and they do grip. Pay the extra; it's worth it!

Wow, what a smooth ride!

I have had these tires on my vehicle for a month now and have truly noticed a difference in the drive on the road. We went on a trip in the North Carolina mountains and the tires were glued to the road on every turn. They were noticably quieter than the previous tires and just improved my overall ride in my 2019 Toyota Highlander. I am extremely impressed and will recommend them to both family and friends.

I am on my second set of these tires and I would not buy anything else. They have been the most reliable and high quality tire I have ever had on a vehicle. On both sets, I have gotten well over the estimated miles. The ride is great and I appreciate Michelin's desire to have the best product possible. Hooray for Michelin.

Just put on our third set of these tires on our 2002 Highlander. We live in the mountains of western NC and my wife would not have any other tires on her car. We are at 3,700 feet, so we do get the snow and ice. These tires have been really good for us.
