Quiet Ride

Bought these for my 2023 Tundra. I’ve only had them for a couple of weeks, but I can definitely say that they are the quietest tires I’ve ever had. And they look great too!

Best tires

These are great tires, it is the newest Michelin tires,,,they are much better than the previous design. they ride smooth and have longer lasting tread life.

Awesome tires

Purchased these tires to replace the original tires on my 2022 Toyota Tundra. Look fantastic (I think they are a definite upgrade in appearance and function over the original Yokohama tires.) Great price with Sam’s Club as well along with the road hazard warranty.

I purchased a set of 4 for my 2024 Chevrolet 2500 Duramax over all they are great tires 3 of the 4 did not take any weight when they balanced them since then i have put 50,000 miles on them and there are still 2 with no weight. They have 10/32 on them now looking like i will get over 100,000 miles out of them. I do a lot of high way driving with a flatbed goose neck trailer. They are not the best in mud but we don't get a lot of rain in the Texas panhandle.

TERRIBLE Tires

I have had Michelin tires on all my trucks over the years, these new ones are not the same. Bought 2 in July and 2 in November, truck was shaking bad. Back to Discount tire and the road force value was 40-50 on two of them. Replaced and problem came back within 2 week. Since then they have replaced all 4 again, problem is back. Took to the dealership, nothing wrong with the truck, it's the tires again. Not a happy customer.

Very Poor Traction On Snowy Roads

Bought these to replace factory Michelin Defender LTX's on my ‘22 Super Duty, which were great and lasted over 60K miles. They are fine on dry pavement, but downright scary on snow covered roads, where the LTX was surprisingly solid. So bad, in fact, that I am considering replacing them after only about 10K miles. I love Michelin tires and would use nothing else on my Audi, but these are subpar.

We’re sorry to hear that the Michelin Defender LTX Platinum tires haven’t met your expectations in snowy conditions, especially given your positive experience with previous Defender LTX tires. While traction can vary based on road conditions, vehicle setup and driving factors, we understand how concerning it is to feel uncertain behind the wheel. We’d encourage you to visit a local Michelin dealer for an inspection and to discuss options that may better suit your driving needs. You’re also welcome to contact our Consumer Care team at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST) for additional assistance.

Shakes

Total junk! Not what I've always expected from Michelin. They have been balanced 3 times, twice was road force. They balance out but the truck still shakes the steering wheel. They have done this since they were installed. 2018 Chevy 2500 HD. Less than 500 miles and I'm contemplating buying another brand.
