Worst tires I have owned

I purchase these at the recommendation of the local tire shop. Shortly after installation I drove a few hundred miles mostly on the highway and there was significant vibration at speeds of 65-75 mph. This made for a miserable trip. I immediately went back to have them rebalanced again when I returned home. This did not make the ride any better so they attempted a third balancing and the ride is now worse. Additionally, if I don’t drive for a few days the tires get out of round and then there is significant vibration at slow speeds until they warm up. I never had these problems with the previous two sets of tires which were also much cheaper. These are the worst tires I have ever purchased.

Do not buy this tire

Bought these tires in 2008 for my 2000 4runner Limited. Was told that I could easily get over 60,000 miles. Now in 2012, I have to buy new tires, after 37,400 miles. Proper maintenance was done to the tires by the warehouse where they were purchased. Warehouse where I purchased the tires is, again, telling me that the new Michelin LTX M/S2 is very much improved. I do not know if I can trust Michelin or the warehouse where I bought them.

I love these tires!!

I was traveling and had some time to investigate new tires. I put the agent through a lot of questions and he knew everything about tires and even more about Michelin. He took his time, was able to answer all my questions as well as help me make a great dicision on the tire I chose. I truly love these tires and I am so happy I bought them too. The vehicle rides so well and they have enhanced the drive in rain and snow as well. I will be purchasing another set when that time comes and with all the dog rescue transports I do, that might be pretty soon! Thank you for making a great tire that I feel safe with.

Great Tire

I have had several sets of Michelins over the years and they have all been good tires, but these Defender LTX M/S are the best so far. I ran the PSI up to 40 -it was set at 32 from the installer and that made a big difference. I have not used them in snow yet but took a couple 800 miles trips and hit a lot of rain and sun at speed. These tires make my truck feel like a train- glued to the road...hit 1 to 2 inch pools of water on the interstate and they sliced right through it. Very comfortable ride and no excess noise. The only downside is I think I lost a MPG or two on the highway - but these are for a truck, if you want MPG your driving the wrong vehicle. Buy these tires you will not be sorry.

Thanks so much for the kind words A Guy, we appreciate your loyalty! In reference to your MPG, new tires having full tread depth will have more grip and rolling resistance in comparison to worn tires. As the new tires wear, the rolling resistance decreases. Over the life of the tires, all things being equal, the fuel efficiency should improve.

Best SUV and Light truck tire ever....

If you need to buy tires for your SUV or truck, go ahead and buy the best. The LTX M/S is absolutely the finest SUV tire out there. They will outlast any competitors tire hands down. Ride quality is phenominal. The few extra bucks you spent on the LTX M/S tires will be insignificant 5 years down the road. Get the best the first time. I'll never buy any other brand SUV tire.

Awesome

We put in a lot of driving and what's most important is the smooth and quiet ride we receive from Michelin tires. The tires wear more evenly than most tires on the market. I have to say, the previous Michelin tires (same brand) gave us a longer life; same driving pleasure, but wore out sooner.

Purchased for Jeep Wrangler

Superior difference in handling when on the road and at high speeds. Very smooth and better handling than the replaced Michelin tires that came from the factory. They look good and a bit more aggressive. So far very pleased with the tires and extremely happy with Discount Tires in Sioux Falls, SD. Our rep, Todd, went way out of his way to help us with the cost of our tires.

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!

Great tires on my Silverado.

This is my second set of tires on my 2000 Silverado 1500. Truk has 185K miles. Driving around the city or on the highway very comfortable. reat traction and gas mileage has been outstanding. 20 mpg on the highway! Would definitely buy these again. Great in the rain and wet locations and in the snow with 4x4. I get very good mileage fro these tires easy 70K miles. Have not done too much off road with these so I can't comment.
