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.

The first thing I noticed ...

The first thing I noticed was the Jeep Liberty these tires were mounted on, would start to roll forward when the vehicle was placed in gear. A new experience since the original equipment tires just sort of sat still and always needed a little nudge on the accelerator to get into motion. Secondly, the original equipment tires would squeal in tight turns even at very slow (essentially) walking speeds. Not so at all with the Michelins. Third, handling and control of the Jeep has improved. They've only been mounted on my vehicle for a couple of weeks, but I;m definitely very enthused with their performance By the way, my 2000 Buick has Michelins and my 2005 Winnebago motorhome came with them as original equipment, and they have performed flawlessly in their first 45000 miles of service.

I have put michelins on my suvs for 16 years as well as my dad. We have found that the tread wear outlast the competition by far. They have been far superior over any other tires I have driven on especially during rain or snow. I would highly recommend michelins to anyone ready to buy new tires!!

Best light truck tires ...

Best light truck tires I've ever owned and I've tried 7 different brands/models. What most stands out is the wet weather performance and tread life - which are usually mutaully exclusive. I have 18,500 more miles that any previous tire. No flats / no problems / no degradation over time. Great snow performance and queit.

I am 61 years old and I ...

I am 61 years old and I have only used Michelin tires for all of my vehicles. These tires last and last and continue to provide a smooth ride through out the life of the tire. Last winter we had a tremendous snow storm and even thought my tires had 70,000 miles on them, they performed like the were new on my 4 wheel drive. This spring I replaced the set with another MTS set and expect no difference in the ride nor mileage for years to come. Thanks Michelin for making such great tires!

Tires have excellent response and feel, with comfort.

I was already convinced to buy these tires. This set is better, and handles better than previous set of LTX I had a few years ago, and they performed extremely well. On previous set of tires, on a Yukon, my wife had a 'generator' trailer come off hitch ahead of her, on 6 lane interstate. Between the Michelin tires, Stabilitrak on Yukon and anti-lock brakes, she was able to maneuver from one side of highway to other, multiple times, coming down from 60mph, to avoid the erratic trailer.

I just installed my second set of LT M/S 108s. The first set lasted 110 thousand miles and still had 4/32 of tread left! We have a lot of rain in FL and the wet weather braking was exceptional. The tires were balanced when they were first installed and there was never a sign of vibration for their entire life. I never did anything special other than watching the inflation pressure and rotating them on a regular basis. We keep our vehicles for a long time and I am sure the new set will perform equally as well as the first.

Nice tire. Horrid mileage

For my last six vehicles I’ve bought Michilens when it came time to replace originals. Nice ride and good handling. These are the same in that respect. However the mileage dropped immediately and consistently from the original tires. I am averaging 15% to 20% LOWER gas mileage since I had these put on. All that great tread is going to give me is several thousand more miles of less than optimal gas economy.

Great Ride!!

Not my first set of Michelins and not the last! But they will certainly be on twice as long as the last set that came on the truck and only lasted 35K and where anything but a comfortable and quite ride! The cost more but worth every penny and pay for themselves with the extra. mileage you get out of every set. The LTX never disappoints!
