I purchased the Michelin's for my Silverado used to travel to-and-from New England and Colorado. The trip is 2,100 miles each way and then we alternate between paved and gravel roads in CO. The tires give a smooth and comfortable ride traveling cross country. When in CO, they are rugged enough to provide good traction on gravel and in the mud. Yet they are versatile enough to corner beautifully on the paved mountain roads. Not my first set of Michelins; certainly not my last. In fact we have similar Michelins on our other cars.

Replaced factory 4Runner tires with these and love them. Smooth, quiet, with good traction. My only complaint is there is not a 275/70/17 option which would allow a clean fit without having to modify the 4Runner at all, which is necessary with the 285s. If you made a 275/70/17 it would definitely be my next set after these.

Bought these tires about 4 months ago. They have about 5k miles so far. They are so much smoother and better steering response than the Toyos that came on vehicle. I have had two other sets of these on other vehicles in the past. I'm sure these will deliver the same excellent quality my others have. They are a bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

The first thing that I noticed was that they were quiet. Number two, I didn't downshift into third gear climbing the bridge on my way to the gym. I stayed in overdrive and the truck pulled the hill very well. With the old tires I had to downshift to get over the bridge. Thirdly, the traction difference is very noticeable and lastly my handling has improved. I should see an improvement in my gas usage per mile. Excellent choice for me. This my second set as I put a set on my other truck. Highly recommend these tires.

It is not every day that you come across a product that is not only suitably described by the maker. The Defender LTX M/S2 is such a product. I didn't choose them they came stock on my 2018 F-150 and I have to say Ford mede a great choice. Not only are they a quite tire, they are surefooted in the rain and give great response on dry roads. I think when you combine those two with the longevity of the tires you have a winner. I now have 49,750 miles on this original set and they look like they can go another 10,000 miles easily. I just returned from a 5,450 mile vacation trip and I was expecting to possibly have to replace them before coming home. To my surprise the tires look just like they did before I left. I am planning to replace them with the same tire when they do wear out and I am also adding a spare of the same size. Rotations will then cost a bit more for 5 tires but I expect I'll have that set for a lot longer that this one. I'm saving money with these tires that's another reason to choose them.

I bought these tires for my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. These are by far the best tires I have ever owned. They are a 5 star in every category. They ride like a dream and are super smooth and quiet. The traction in the rain is phenomenal. Absolutely no hydroplaning. They grip the road and don't budge no matter how wet the road is. I am more than anxious for the snow so I can see how they handle in snow. I average 75 - 80 mph and they just glide. No bumpy ride and definitely not noisy. I love these tires! Worth every penny!

My first set of Michelins ( I am 62 yrs old ) Defender LTX M/S. Everything was great around town and local roads. Then I took a trip to Los Angeles. The rain grooves cut in the freeway caused this model tire to wander and follow the grooves. This was a very uncomfortable feeling. It was constant steering wheel adjustments. I guess the wrong tire for my truck.

I debated if I should spend the extra money on Michelin tires for my older Ford Expedition but it's my go to vehicle for trips and inclement weather and only has 45 thousand miles on it. It was worth it---tires give a very smooth and quiet ride and are great in rain. This winter I will put them to the test in the snow and ice on a ski trip.

I have been buying Michelin LTX tires for many years now too include the MS/2 version. Without hesitation the LTX MS/2 were the best tires I have ever seen put on a truck. However with the advent of their new Defender series, I can honestly say they are the worst LTX tires they have ever made, they just will not balance out, the more I drive them the more they shake and shimmy. Last pair of LTX MS/2 had 115,000 miles on them, my 2002 Z71 Tahoe... LT285/70/17. The old tires had a better ride than the new tires do, (Defenders)... Shame, time to find another tire and manufacturer, never thought I would be saying that about the LTX Dave

When I purchased my new SUV I complained about the ride all the time. I think they put the cheapest tires they could find on at the factory. When I only got 20,000 miles on them and they needed replaced, my first choice was Michelin. The ride improved 100%! I have purchased them in the past and have always been satisfied.
