Had to replace the OEM Hankook Ventus all season tires at 28k miles. They didn’t last long. The major snowfall of the season they had me questioning my Explorer. It’s 4WD and even in the snow mode, traction wasn’t there. Braking was horrible, ABS was kicking in all the time. Felt like I was back to driving my Town Car, and even that dealt with the snow better. The Ford dealer agreed these tires were about done. Weeks later the dealer hooked me up with these tires. No more flat spots. The ride improved, quieter too. Yes I know new tires make a difference. But the old tires weren’t that old. The next snowfall was a big improvement. Traction was back, braking was confident. 1,000 miles with these tires and so far I’m sold this was a smart purchase. 6 inches of unplowed roads this morning and I felt much more confident. Driving smart of course. Cannot say how long these will last but my precious experience of these tires on a ‘99 Tahoe was favorable too. Good tires for this vehicle.

These are a great set of tires. Long lasting as long as you rotate every 5,000 miles. If you don't your front tires can become cupped and you will feel some front end vibration. Rotate from to back every 5,000 miles and you can get 70,000+ miles easy.

Just had to buy a new set of tires for my 1999 Silverado daily driver. The tires coming off were Michelin LTX M/S with approximately 110,000 miles on the set. They were installed in 2005 and dry rot claimed them before wear reached the wear bars. Excellent tires, no complaints!

I bought these tires in 2005 and still have them on my vehicle. They have been very good. They do great in the snow, rain, and mud. They have been used on a vehicle that takes me to work everyday. I will be purchasing new tires again in the near future and plan on buying the same tires again.

these tire are the best in the business ,you can't find a better wearing long lasting tires . i have these tires on 2003 sliverado 2500 hd with a duramax diesel .they have over 30000 miles on them they look like i just bought them . i live in north east ohio winter gets pretty bad ,have the time i don 't even but the truck in 4 wheel drive what a great tire

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.

I purchased the Michelin’s for my Silverado used to travel to-and-from New England and Colorado. The trip is 2,100 miles each way and then we alternate between paved and gravel roads in CO. The tires give a smooth and comfortable ride traveling cross country. When in CO, they are rugged enough to provide good traction on gravel and in the mud. Yet they are versatile enough to corner beautifully on the paved mountain roads. Not my first set of Michelins; certainly not my last. In fact we have similar Michelins on our other cars.

I have owned multiple sets of Michelin LTX tires on my trucks through out the years and have always had a great service from them.. until now with the LTX Defender tires. I bought these tires to replace a very worn set of OEM BF Goodrich tires that came on my truck. After 3 separate tire shops attempts at balancing the tires I am still left with a very significant amount of vibration at speeds over 50 mph. Very disappointing to say the least!

I put these tires on my truck on July 2007 when it had 45,892 miles. Today, my truck has 184,587 miles on it and I am still going strong (already 138,695 miles). This is the second set of tires I have owned on two different trucks. First truck had 127,000 miles on the tires when I sold the truck to get this truck. I am hoping to get at least 150,000 before I turn them in for new ones. Has anyone ever gone longer than 150,000 miles on a set of these tires? If so, how long?

The main reason I buy Michelin tires for my truck is they are economical to use. They cost less than any tires that I used, based on full life of tire. My Michelin�s have over 70K miles and they have a lot of thread left. The originals where totally gone after 44k with using the spare tire in the rotation on a dually.
