Great Tires

Drove a 2014 CX-5 with Defender LTX M/S tires, went up 10 mils to 235 due to OEM tires being 225. Put 63,000 miles on the CX-5 with these tires and loved them. Traveled from northern Illinois to Florida (Naples) and Colorado (Winter Park) to visit family a few times, and many times up to Wisconsin for fishing or skiing. Perfect traction in snow, good solid ride, no hydroplaning in heavy rain. I do not trust the reviews I read about load tires and bad milage. Just traded the CX-5 in last week for a 2022 Rav4 XSE Hybrid. Picked it up on Saturday and had the comfort tires replaced with LTX M/S tires (again at plus 10 mils) on Monday. Better, more responsive and solid ride, and had a nice snowstorm on Thursday to really try them out. Great tires.

One Heck of a Tire!

This is the second vehicle that I have used Michelin Tires on and I trust them and feel secure with them on my vehicle. My home is in the woods, with horrible road conditions in the winter and spring, and I have to have a tire that I know won't let me down. I love how they ride even on the highway when I go see my grandchildren. I know, and feel very confident that I have a tire that is dependable and will hold up to my roads! I live on a fixed income and when I buy these tires I know that I am getting the best for my money! I highly recommend these tires to everyone.

On my last set of MS tires I did have one tire that seemed to growl when it was on the right front where I guess I could hear it better. Thinking the noice was a wheel bearing, I had asked the service technician to check the bearing but he said it was the tire.

Great tires

I got a set on my 2014 crew cab F150 4x4. Have had them about a year and a half and now nearing 90,000 miles. Never a set of tires that have lasted this long. They have been great. Smooth ride and handle well in all kind of weather even when we get hit with the lake effect snow we get here. They are finally getting down to needing replacement and I have an appointment for Monday to get another set.

These tires are very quiet and offer a comfortable ride

These tires were purchased Feb. 26, 2021 on a new vehicle. The date today is June 19, 2023. I have driven 18,500 miles since my purchase and the wear bars have already shown on two of the tires and the other two tires are close behind. This is only with highway driving. I'm very disappointed with the reliability/wear of my Michelin Premier LTX tires. Needless to say, these tires have shown excessive wear.

With proper rotation and ...

With proper rotation and inflation every 5000 miles, I have reached 80,000 miles on a set. I should have replaced at 75,000 miles just for safety. I live on a gravel road and these tires do not have rubber pieces chunking out from tires as another brand of tire I had on when I purchased this truck did. When I called that manufacturer about that set I was told not to drive on gravel roads. The Michelin tire is the most durable and safest tire I have ever used. I use them mostly for on road driving and I feel that this is the only light truck tire worth the money. I love the way they my truck handles when I have a set of Michelins on and I can count on at least 65,000 miles on a set in which that is what I have on them now and they still have about 10,000 miles left. This tire is a very quiet tire as far as road noise is concerned. I recommend nothing but Michelin tires for light trucks.

These are the best tire made

These are the best tires made. I bought 4 LTX/MS in 2006 for my Xterra. I just notice today that I will have to replace them within the next 5,000 to 10,000 miles. I pulled the paperwork and they were installed @ 223,000 miles. I now have 385,000 miles. Do the math folks, Yup, 162,000 + mile and riding like new still. AWESOME. See what routine rotating and air pressure checks will do for you. And yup I can back it up with detailed paperwork. Only wish I could afford to buy these again. This kinda sounds like a commercial.

We have the Michelin LTX ...

We have the Michelin LTX 245/70-16 on a Nissan 4x4 Pathfinder that replaced the stock 255/65-16. Had the tires on the vehicle now for years and 40,000 miles. The tread looks like it will last another 40,000 miles and wears very even. The sidewalls are extremely rigid and must be puncture resistant. We live in a area with lots of potholes and new construction, so nails and debris is common on the road. My wife gets nail punctures very often and I don't so I have to think the deeper thread blocks and inner lining of the Michelins must have something to do with it. Where we live when it snows they don't clear the roads, so I only drive the Pathfinder then because the tires have really good grip on show and icy roads. They are way better than the OE tires, I am very impressed. If there is any negative complain I would say they do ride harder than the OE tires, they are very quiet but you do feel the road surface more.

Best Tire I ever bought

These tires are the very best quality and ride they provide is excellent. Through the first 45 years of my life I've bought just about every kind of tire either for me or my children. But as I got older and wiser I found this tire and have been using them for the past 15 years on three different vehicles, 2 jeeps and a F150. They give you a lot of miles and are excellent in any type of weather. Five thumbs up from me.....
