I have purchased (2) sets ...

I have purchased (2) sets of LTX MS ( l set on a 1990 Jeep cherokee laredo, and on a 1997 grand cherokee laredo. Both sets have been excellent, with the set on 1997 jeep still with more than half the tread after 40,000 miles. I intended on getting these for my wife's 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo, but unfortunately I couldn't afford them at the time. Also, the tires on the 1997 have been on for 8 years. I have recommended these tires to several of my friends, and I know least three have purchased the LTX MS. These tires are outstanding for all season, long mileage, and quite/smooth ride.

I took delivery of a new 2004 Chev Tahoe 4WD. Before I picked it up I paid the difference to upgrade to a set of Michelin LTX's. This is not my first time on this model of tire and auto. 89,000 miles later I went back for a new set. The ride even as they get some miles on them is great. They always rebalance beautifully. I'll go for Michelins for my ZO6 Corvette when I wear out the original tires it came with.

Still The Best Tire I Ever Owned

Over 75,000 miles on my Michelin tires and they are still the best tire I ever owned. I purchased new Michelins in Jan. of 2009 for my Honda Pilot with 68,819 miles. I now have over 150,000 miles on the Pilot and still have good tread, good handling, and performance. So good, my parents borrowed my vehicle for a 3 hour drive, came back and said they'd still own their Honda Pilot if it rode and handled like mine with the Michelins. These tires are by far the best I have owned. Great wear, great handling and performance, and peace of mind when driving long distances in any kind of weather. I drive up to 600 miles a week, and am glad I am driving on these tires every day.

My first set of tires ...

My first set of tires which came with my 2006 Honda Ridgeline gave me 93000 miles and I know I could easily have gotten another 5000 miles out of them.I replaced them with the same tires which now have over 25000 miles and are showing no wear at all.I rotate my tires every 10000 miles.Thank you Michelin for a great product.

Got a good price on these tires over the phone. Salesman switched me to a house brand. We could not get the vibration balanced out after 3 times including a "road force" balance. I insisted he take them off and give me the Michelins for which I originally asked. We installed the Michelins and with one or two tiny weights, instead of all the heavy ones on all the wheels, I have the smoothest ride anyone could ask for. It made me remember the words of a friend who was a service advisor for a car dealer who told people with balance problems, "do yourself a favor and let me sell you some Michelins. In every case it solved the problem. I will ONLY use Michelins!

Best tires made

I have been a Michelin tire user for many years. I have put michelins on two Suburbans,two Chevy Silverados,two Jeeps and a Ford Expedition. The tires wore as advertised and regularly exceeded the mileage noted. That's all I use and will continue to ride on Michelin rubber.

Less then perfect

This is my second set and by far these are less then great, with only 36,000 miles on them they slip (hydroplane) when there is a little water on the road and they slip at start up even on dry roads. I have them rotated every 5,000 miles, I check and correct tire pressure every 30 days, I am wondering if the rubber is now a harder substance, hopefully they make it to 70,000 miles

Thanks for the honest feedback. Sounds like you’ve been taking great care of your tires, so we totally get your frustration. The Defender LTX M/S is designed for long-lasting traction, but performance can vary depending on wear, road conditions, and vehicle setup. We’d recommend having a local dealer take a look to see what’s going on.

I'm a Michelin customer for life!

Have always had excellent results with these tires.good traction and wear characteristics and never any issues with tread life and no issues with any set I've ever purchased! I've always preferred Michelin over other brands and will be a customer for life!

One of the best I ever owned!

Had a severe problem with handling & sway with the OEM tires. When I had a sidewall blow out I decided on replacing all 4 tires. I did so with your product & haven't regretted my decision since. A great product with a great company that I've come to trust for both reliability & safety.

At 24,000 miles, I replaced the original equipment tires on my 2000 Jeep Wrangler with Michelin LTX M/S. At 127,000+ miles, I was "forced" to replace that set of Michelins with another set just like the other Michelins! Do the math! What more can I say?
