Very planted and quiet

Have my Defenders now for just about 3000 miles on a 4Runner. Not the off-road tire, no - but for 99% of my travels, these tires are great. Smooth ride and they feel sure planted. No snow yet .... Rain driving, I didn't feel any risk or anything. They seem to react better when it was wet out. Very Happy with my purchase.

High mileage is an understatement!

Mine are the old style ltx and 6 years old with 87,000 current miles on them. The vehicle came with lattitudes that wore out at 77,000. I rotate myself every 5,000 and keep track of the correct rotation in a book. They show slight signs of sun wear and I'll change them before the next winter with an amazing amount of tread left. People still ask if I just bought new tires. Best handling, noise and wear tires I've ever owned!

All Michelin are the BEST TIRES

I have had Michelin tires since 1978, I first purchased them to put on my "Pinto Wagon" yes I said Pinto, she was a 1976. The car did not come with radial tires, and these tires changed everything. I have been a loyal Michelin owner since. The ride is awesome, the wear is awesome, and I feel very safe knowing I have Michelin tires on my Vehicle............ I put different Michelins on my Explorer this time, but the LTX/MS were on my vehicle, I purchased them.....the Latitude is also great, only a 5,000 mi difference in warranty.........If you can do it, always use Michelin. Michelin has come a long way, the one years ago had softer side walls, and that was rough in NYC, having to parallel park............ Thank you Michelin !!!

I love my Michelins!

I bought my first set of Michelins in 1973 for an Opel Manta Ralley and never used anything other tire unless the car came with something else. Bought a Honda Accord one time and forced them to put a set of Michelins on before i woyuld agree to the deal. My duaghter was going to be driving the car and didn't want her to have any issues with her tires and have a great trust for the Michelin Brand!

Best Ride and Safe Tires

I was doing an oil change on my 2004 Tundra and asked my wife to look at the previous receipt for the last set of these same tires. She said 80,000 miles and ten years ago. although the tread was still good, I had noticed some steering wheel wabble at low speed and a slight pull to the left and had two shops check the alignment on my 120K miles Tundra. They both said your alignment is fine, so I drove it for a year or so trying rotation without a cure. I told her "These tires are good, but Old and hard". I put on this fresh set and Wala! no more vibration and no pull. Man this thing rides like the Tundra should. I know these tires are $$ but worth it to me. By the way I got 100,000 miles on the same Michelin Defenders on my Honda CRV.

FANTASTIC OEMs on 2010 Honda Pilot

These OEMs are the original set of tires on my 2010 Honda Pilot, which now has 65,000 miles so far. There is still approx. 10,000 of remaining tread wear. I rotate these tires each time I service my vehicle, and the tread wear is very even across the tire, with no difference in wear between front/rear tires. Tire tires are very reliable, score highly in all categories, and they hep keep the vehicle moving straight. In other words, they don't cause annoying radial pulls, to the left or right, like some tire have a tendency to do. Off-Road traction is good, for the few times I've been in snow/ice, or up an down grassy hilly parking lots at sporting functions. I will buy these exact tires when replacing my OEM set.

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.

Amazing tires

This is my third set of the LTX MS tires. My daughter and I both have these on our SUVs my husband has the AT2's on his Excursion which he absolutely loves! I also have a blazer with the LTX MS , and have Michalin passenger tires on my Honda Accord! When I go to the tire shop for new tires they always try to sell me a different brand and I stop them in their tracks and say I only want Michelin tires! They have a smooth comfortable ride and they last a very long time well over 60,000 miles!

save yourself both time & money buy thz

These are my second set of Michelin tires on my Duramax 2500 Diesel that has over 130K on it for milege. We tow a 31 foot Airstream Trailer, and ahve towed it across America twice. These Michelin tires have never failed and the milege on these have been close to 60-65K per set with rotation and air pressure being monitored. We're about to upgrade to 16" wheels on the Airstream and they will have Michelins and on our Cadillac SRX we use Michelins. The only bad thing is for Michelin, is they last forever. Buy Michelin and you will save yourself allot of time, money and frustration. A well worth investment for a long term return.

Awesome Tire for all around use

I've changed the tires that came w/ my Honda Pilot to the LTX M/S. We drive onto the beach in DE, w/ 6 other families. We all have these tires. From my stand point; there are 2 big pluses I have seen. When driving onto the beach I only have to drop the pressure down to 25 psi and most of the time I don't have to drive in 4x4. The second feature is the way these tire handle in the wet weather, one word AWESOME! I would recommend thses to a friend, because friends have highly recommened them to me.
