Amazing Tires!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tires are truly awesome! The tires look great with the new tread pattern. And my Jeep Wrangler has been riding extra smooth and quiet thanks to the full ring velour sidewall. Perfect tires for all that living in Louisiana brings!

Very nice tires!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although I always knew t good tires made a difference my wife never believed me! Well after driving the truck with the new tires she was shocked!! She couldn’t believe the difference especially when driving in the rain. She said she it felt smoother and safer. The only problem is now she wants to drive the truck instead of her car . Great tires!!

Out of round tires

I’ve had these ties on my truck for 7000 miles. Had to replace one that was out of round. Truck still rides worse than ever my tire shop says Michelins doesn’t honor warranty claims so I’m SOL. I cannot stress enough to avoid Michelins tires. This is the 3rd set of Michelins I’ve had in past few years and absolutely the last. First 2 sets lasted under 30,000 miles

Bravo Michelin, Well done!

I could not give the Michelin Defender LTX Platinum higher praise. I needed to go up a size to get to a higher weight capacity as I pull a 33 foot RV. I was concerned that going to a true LT size tire was going to ruin my ride and get noisy. Boy was I mistaken! I put them on my Ford F150 Platinum Hybrid and the ride has never been better. Even more impressive is how quiet these tires are. When my truck goes into electric driving mode it is dead silent in the cab, not a whisper of road noise. I'm impressed, Bravo Michelin!

The new tread design is state of the art, that goes with the long lasting tread wear they advertise for LT or EV vehicles.

I’ve had these tires on for a week, since swapping my winter tires. The handling is outstanding., the smooth feeling on the steering wheel is outstanding, it’s early days yet, but I have faith in Michelin and the Defender platinum tires I bought. Do yourself huge favor and get your Michelin tires ASAP.

Great Tires

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had them installed on my Ford F150 and they provide good traction on roads in dry, wet and snowy conditions. I have been very pleased with their performance and notice an improvement in the smoothness of our ride. The material is made with superb quality material that has withheld up even while off-road throughout my families farm.

Next Level of Awesomeness!

I will add pics soon, these tires are on whole other level! 1st thing I noticed is that they are extremely quiet I mean like insanely quiet! I found noises inside my cab that I have never heard before. secondly, something stood out was the faster you are driving the more the tires want to stay straight ahead you can actually feel the resistance if you were to slightly move the wheel. This obviously must have to do with the stange tread. and third cornering, my truck weighs over 8k in traffic circles, tight turns I have much less body roll. These tires are insanely cool! I have not had inclement weather to test them however i did test them in wet locations from a stop aggressively throttled and noticed no spin. Very smooth on our dirt road with aggressive turning no skidding. I have already noticed very low rolling resistance I will document my MPG savings as well as bad weather driving as have the chance. I have a feeling these tires are going to become the next best thing especially for EV's. My Tires are 295/65/R20 Load range E. These tires are 35's and will fit stock height 2021 GMC2500HD's No modification necessary.

Amazing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I must admit with all this bad weather we’ve recently had these tires have made it even more safe to drive my truck in unsafe weather conditions. I have noticed I don’t drift or slide as much as I did with my previous tires. These tires are very durable and rain and slippery roads. I am completely convinced that these are the best tires fit for any truck.

Comfort & Longevity Bundled In

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Glad that I chose this set for my SUV, Appreciable improvement in mileage as well as better comfort specially for long drives. Great longevity inspite of heavy duty use that I put my SUV through, with cutting edge aesthetics. I am enjoying the quiet and comfortable rides after I changed to this set of tires.

Great Allrounder Tires

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are great tires that are all-rounder for light weight trucks. The treads are great and will easily last longer than other tires. These are pretty standard with 20" rims so you don't have to change the rims as well. The road noise is not much, but it depends on what you put these on. if you put these on Jeep with 20" rims, then as the jeep itself is noisy, these will make more noise. but if you put it on Ford F150, then the noise is not much. It feels great to drive on these tires and can be sure that it would navigate through anything that in not Mud or Snow. these tires does lack little grip in rain, but that would be any tire. all in all great tires, nothing to complain. you get what you pay.
