In my honest opinion, ...

In my honest opinion, there is NO better tire for SUVs operating in northern climates than the Michelin LTX M/S. They provide a quiet, comfortable ride, with great handling and uncompromised wet traction. They are the only tires that I have found that will climb my steep driveway, when it's covered in packed snow. They even helped my RWD van get up the drive!

Michelin 67,000 and still quiet and safe

Michelin LTX/MS came stock on my Ford F150 and we were so impressed with how quiet the truck was. As time went on I kept looking at the condition of the thread thinking at 50,000 miles I'll need new ones. The tires were rotated and rebalanced twice. I have 67,000 miles now and they can't last forever, I'll buy 4 new LTX/MS at 72,000 miles. This way I wont have to pay for rotation and balance again and I'll have a continued Michelin safety factor.

Great tires

I just put these on my 2017 Tacoma TRD off road 4x4 and so far, they’re great! Took them on the highway after installing and no noise at 70+ mph. Ride comfort is great. Interested in seeing how they perform in rain as my stock tires didn’t do so well.

88K problem free

These were the original tires that came with the vehicle. There was still tread on the tires after 88,000 miles. The tread wear indicators had not yet shown. I keep my tires inflated at 34 psi and rotate them twice a year. I decided to replace them with the same Michelin tire as came from Honda with the new truck because of the excellent performance. I could have continued to drive on the tires for another 6-12 mos, but because I will be traveling more than usual this summer I decided to replace them now. Great all weather tire. I live in central Ohio. This winter I had no problems in snow even though the tires had 80K+ miles on them.

The best tires I've ever purchased!!!!

I purchased my set of four tires on June 21, 2011 before going on vacation with my family. This is my first set of Michelin tires and I can honestly tell you these are the best tires I've ever had. On our trip to Florida from TX, it rained practilly all the way there. I have a long wheel based pick-up and I never experienced any hydroplaning like I have with my other tires. I now have about 40,00 miles on them, and you can hardly see any wear. My wife's SUV also has a set of four on it. I my opionion, these tires are the cream of the crop in the tire industry.

In 2002 I purchased a 1995 Suburban 2500 series with a diesel engine. I soon put on a set of 275-16 LTX Michelin tires. I now have 112,000 miles on these tires and there is still tread left. I will be getting new ones before long, but what is ironic, is that the lady that I purchased the Suburban from said that the reason she was selling it was because it wore out tires so quickly. I'm sure that a lot of the longivity can be attributed to driving habits, but the Michelin tires have performed exceptionally as well.

GREAT IN RAIN, BUT DON'T GET STATED MILEAGE

This is not my 1st set of these tires on present and previous Tahoe's and while great on wet roads this set of 4 tires is wearing the worst of all previous sets. The dealer rotates the tires every 5000 miles and they are all wearing evenly from outside edges to center of the tires. However with 50,000 miles there is no way I will be able to run these tires for the length of the stated and advertised warranty of 70,000 miles. All previous sets went the full 70,000 miles but not these. I have been told by some tire dealers that Michelin was sold just before I purchased these tires and the rubber is not the same compound as previous LTX M/S2. Considering the premium price these tires cost, I will need to consider other brands for the next purchase.

Light Truck Tires - LTX

This is my third set of LTX M/S tires on my 3/4 ton truck and at 286,000 I keep telling myself this will be my last set. These LTX tires are superb for for highway as well as the many offroad conditions I get myself into. I put lots of highway miles and rely on a smooth ride from my LTX'es. If my truck will make it to 340,000, I will most definitely put another set of LTX tires on it.

BEST TIRES EVER ! IMPROVED MY RIDE 75 %

Just bought these Defenders . My 2011 Ford f150 never rode so smooth ! Excellent in the rain and man talk about an improved ride. It's literally like a different truck. They are without a doubt the best tires I ever owned ! The best money I ever spent ! I never do reviews but went out of my way to do complete this one. You truly only get what you pay for. I am 67 years young and these are the BEST !!!!

My Special Cargo

My special cargo is really a very precious passenger. She is my granddaughter. I take her anywhere when her parents cannot leave work during the week, whether it's weekday church school or a scheduled appointment with the peditrician. Making time for a milkshake is just an extra stop. I have to trust the tires on my vehicle. I have had Michelin tires on all my cars since 1985. I know they're dependable in all kinds of weather and for sudden braking. Now I have another grandaughter; so they're two good reasons I want Michelin tires on "Grammy's car".
