Excellent traction on the ...

Excellent traction on the hot Florida Highways and most of all in the Florida downpours. The tires that came on my 2003 Honda when new would slide when excelerating from a stopped or slow position, not so with my Michelins. I now feel safe and secure both on the Highway and off in Sun or Rain. When I lived in Connecticut I always prepared for the Winter & Snow Storms with a good set of dependable Michelins for my Lincolns as I had tried several other brands that did not perform near as well nor did the tread last near as long. I have felt Safe and Secure with my Michelins for over 25 years now. The couple of times I tried another brand or purchased a car with another brand I have always gone back to Michelin as the other brands that I have experienced can not compare. Michelin is Number 1 for my cars.

Great tire for certain vehicles

I purchased these tires for a Escape Hybrid in November. These tires replaced the Michelin Lattitude Tour series (which is no longer offered in this size) based on Michelin's recommendations. These tires are essentially a light truck tire with extra load capacity, so the ride quality is notably harsh and there is more tread noise at low speeds. The total rolling resistance is considerably higher, lowering the Average Fuel Economy on the Escape by over 8 MPG. This tire is a good choice for light trucks and larger heavier SUV's, but a poor choice for smaller SUV's or hybrids.

Best tires EVER

We had this particular tire before and had over 70,000 miles on them and still could have used them but was afraid to go off on a trip with them so we decided to get new ones. My wife checked around and priced other cheaper tires but we knew the quality of Michelin tires. There's NO way we would buy anything else.

Below expectations

I have owned multiple sets of Michelin LTX tires on my trucks through out the years and have always had a great service from them.. until now with the LTX Defender tires. I bought these tires to replace a very worn set of OEM BF Goodrich tires that came on my truck. After 3 separate tire shops attempts at balancing the tires I am still left with a very significant amount of vibration at speeds over 50 mph. Very disappointing to say the least!

76,600+ miles

Just bought my third set of these tires for my RAM 1500. The last set had 76,600 miles on them and still had 5/32. Each set has been great. Great handling in all types of weather and low noise. Regular tire rotation kept wear even throughout their life. Couldn't be happier.

Quiet,excellent wet and dry traction,excellent directional control and braking. My LTX/MS tires have an aggressive and robust look that complement my Ford F150 truck. My wife told me the truck seemed to be easier for her to handle with these tires.I would highly recommend these tires.I have Michelin tires on my Honda CRV ,my Dodge Intrepid R/T and my Dodge Caravan .I recommend these tires to friends and family members alike.

Excellant Tire

I shopped around a variety of tires for my Ford F150. After looking a lot of different brands and styles, decided I like the Michelin LTX best of all. The tire handles extremely well in rain or snow. Grips the road well. especially on turns. I feel very confident when I am on the road with this tire. One of the better tires I have come across in my years in the car repair business.

Best tires I have ever owned

I bought 4 new tires from my local car dealer. The tires perform in all types of weather with excellent grip. In addition, the tires have given me great wear, they currently have 45,000 miles and still show a significant amount of tread. There is no road tire noise of any kind and I get great mileage. So, in summary, very safe, great wear, no noise, great mileage and no required maintenance (other than allignment). Yes, I will buy them again.

Do not buy this tire

Bought these tires in 2008 for my 2000 4runner Limited. Was told that I could easily get over 60,000 miles. Now in 2012, I have to buy new tires, after 37,400 miles. Proper maintenance was done to the tires by the warehouse where they were purchased. Warehouse where I purchased the tires is, again, telling me that the new Michelin LTX M/S2 is very much improved. I do not know if I can trust Michelin or the warehouse where I bought them.

So Far So Good

We were looking for a new set of tires and wanting great performance, longevity and ride noise. We came across this tire and for the first several weeks all has been good. We've dealt with some rain and icy conditions and no lack of performance issues so far. The ride noise has been the most impressive including during a road trip we took as well. We've been impressed so far with some of the key aspects we were looking for.
