Excelent tire

I have a pair of these on my 99 ram 2500 (24v cummins) i do over the road transport hauling a enclosed car trailer, I rack up lots of miles and often go from new england through the mid west, sometimes to california and back, so i cover lots of terain, and tempatures, the tires have NEVER failed me, the ware evenly, grip well, ride smothly even under the stress of a load, and when the trucks empty they handle high speeds well ( the truck has some mods on it invcluding a smarty tuner) I will definatly buy another pair of these tires when they warout, i read some other peoples reviwes on this tire, it's a shame some have had dryrot problems, I have some very minor dryrot on my side walls, but not enough to compromise the tire, I find that using armorall on them frequently seems to help as it has rubber conditioners, though i don't these other peoples individual stories, I suppose it could be location, or lack of use, but in any case, I can only speak to my experience which has been great 5 stars from me!

Fantastic Tire

We live in Colorado so a good snow tire is essential. My wife drives a 2007 Honda Pilot FWD. The Michelin LTX tires are so good in the snow, I don't feel the need to switch to a 4WD for our next vehicle. They plow through the snow easily with confidence. We received 14 inches of snow one day here in the Front Range and we had to travel to Loveland for a school outing. I was a bit nervous on how the car would handle with that much snow. I was amazed at how the tires and car handled with that much snow on the road. Not even 4WD would have made a difference. I highly recommend the LTX tires as we've gone above our expected tread life by 15,000 miles and the traction in wet/snowy weather is four stars.

Good Tires

They are simply, very good all around tires. I had purchased 2 used LTX tires previously and I was shocked at how many miles I drove on them? So when I could afford to purchase new tires I got LTX and they have been great! they are quiet, ride well, good traction, I don't know what else I could say? I would buy them again.

Michelin LTX wear like Iron

I have had these tires on my 1993 suburban, 1999 suburban and my 2005 Duramax Diesel Crew Cab Silverado pickup truck. I wouldn't put anything else on a vehicle like these. When I sold the 93 suburban the tires had 50,000 miles on them and they still looked like new. They wear like iron but give a great ride. You won't be disappointed.

Thr best tires I've had on a vehicle

Chevrolet put these on when two sets of the tires that came on the vehicle when new failed at 7000 miles. Have had them on now for nearly 97,000 miles just ordered another set for my Chevrolet High Country Silverado. Ride is superior to any make of tire I've had, durability is unsurpassed as you can see by the milage and handeling is great, especially on wet roads, don't know if you can get them to hydroplane in wet conditions. They lack a little in snow and ice but preform well if you just slow down like you should do anyway! Had only 1 flat in all the miles driven. Great security for my wife and I! Keep up the good work Michelin!!!

I would definately buy these tires again

I now have over 75,000 miles on these tires and they're still in good shape. They are quiet and have never had any tire noise which seems to be more and more common these days. I will replace these tires when needed with the exact same ones and am certain I will have great service from them as well.

These tires are excellent ...

These tires are excellent on wet roads and in snow and ice and wear very well. This is hard to beat for skiing and wet conditions. Handling is also good. They do ride a little rougher than the original passenger tires but I consider this an excellent trade off.

Best tires ever

I bought my first set Michelin tires about 6 years ago. They exceed the estimated milage for tread life. I have Michelin tires on all three of my Vehicals and recommend Michelin tires to everyone. I would never purchase any other brand. Good job Michelin.

Best kept secret in 4wd tires

This tire is the best one on the road for me. I have over the years taken this tire way, way off road and often I've pulled 4x4's with more aggressive tires than these out of situations they could not get through on their own. I drive a stock 2013 Ram 1500 4wd and these tires not only take me wherever I want to go but they ride smooth. I often go in sand, snow, mud, rocks, you name it and this tire is gonna get you through. It takes a long steady foot on the accelerator but these tires will find a way to get you through. Love my Michelin Truck Tires.
