I have had 2 sets of LTX ...

I have had 2 sets of LTX M/S tires on 2 different vehicles and have loved them. Each time I switched from the tire that came on the vehicles to the LTX I experienced an immediate improvement in the ride comfort. I also have had excellent results with wear and performance. In fact I specifically put these on my current vehicle because of my prior experience and they did not let me down despite being a different size tire. They were just as good as before if not better. They have been on my current vehicle for over 50000 miles and are still producing outstanding results. I will continue to use these tires or perhaps the M/S2's in the future.

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.

My lifeline to home and work

I leave home most the time very early before the sun comes up and travel 70 to 100 miles one way almost every day when I'm in town and reliability is very important to me and my family. When I'm out of town my wife's truck has the same tires and it makes us sleep at night knowing we can depend on our travel with Michelin tires. Win lose or draw we appreciate the efforts by Michelin to produce a dependable and reliable product. Thank you from me and my family

I have never had tires last like these!

I am now on my second set of these tires and will buy them again in another 8 years if I still have my RAV4. I had over 86,000 miles on the first set and only replaced them after the combination of extreme dryness, cold and heat in AZ caused the sidewall to crack. Amazingly, there was still quite a bit of tread left on the tires. Expensive, yes, but definitely worth every penny!

Very noisy

Always had luck with Michelin tires until I purchased 4 defender tires for my ram pickup. The loud whine is unbearable on blacktop roads. A little quieter on concrete but still loud. Unfortunately I waited longer than 30 days to return them.. seriously considering buying new tires even though only 2500 miles on these

In rain the tire catches traction In stoping and take off as if it goes below the rain to stop or take off with a squeal as if it were on dry pavement. Haven't ever experienced another tire to do the job in wet conditions as if it were dry. I am 59 yrs. old and have never experienced another tire to do this. Other tire companys shouls want to learn this from you all!

A few months back I slapped on my second set of Michelin tires AFTER I finished getting 100k miles from my last set of LTX M/S! I truly believe regular rotations/balancing and proper inflation make all the difference in the world. Yes, these tires have a premium up-front, but you definitely get what you pay for in this case. That's why I have a new set of Michelins on my 4Runner now and we just put a new set on my wife's new MDX this past summer. I really have no desire to buy another brand - my experience with those tires was that good!

Best Tires for the Money

These are the best tires I have ever purchased for any vehicle. I got 90,000 miles out of this set of 60,000 mile tires. Only rotated once and tread wear was even throughout the time I had them on my truck. That is why I replaced those tires with the exact same tire regardless of the price. It is a good investment. I highly recommend these tires if you are looking for a smooth quiet ride, even wear, and long use.

BEST LIGHT TRUCK TIRE WVER!

LTX M/S is my current tire on my Ram 3500 diesel! This is my second set on this truck! Original tire made it to 70K. Previous set of Michelin’s made 96K! I have had a set for 125K on a smaller truck! I have also had LTX M/S’ and the previous models on Suburbans, Is excursions and other light trucks. Total sets 9-10. Consistent performance, quiet, great in all weather and mileage has al aye been excellent!

What a great set of tires!

These are my favorite SUV tires and have bought two sets. They are on my 1998 4 wheel drive Blazer and like my last set, are wearing like iron! They still have lots of tread left even after 40,000 miles, and never hydroplanes in heavy rain. Mileage also improved over the set previously on it, and you can"t beat the traction. They took very little weight to initially balance, and are still smooth. Well worth the cost.
