A new version of an already excellent tire!

Have had direct experience with this particular tire since 2006 when they were supplied as original equipment on the Honda Ridgeline. Now as a retired import technician, I can honestly say that I have never seen a problem with these tires under normal driving conditions. With normal tire rotation, tire pressure checks, and correct wheel alignment, I have seen them last well past 130,000 kilometres before reaching the wear markers. They are a great tire for light duty trucks and SUV's. I personally recommended and installed these tires to many customer vehicles with very positive results always. I can say with confidence that my recent set of improved LTX Defenders that I installed on my 2008 Honda Ridgeline have exceeded expectations. They are quiet, have great road feel, and improved grip in slippery conditions.

Safe,Trustworthy Company and Product

Along with a great history dating back many years, Michelin is still making a safe and reliable product that can be trusted on any vehicle. When I purchased the vechile, it had Michelin tires already on it. When it time for replacement tires, I wanted the same reliable tires that gave me 60,000 miles even though the rating on the original tires where 40,000,so a got 20,000 miles more out of the tire and I could of still kept going on them. Living in Michigan, the roads and weather where some of the most extreme so I experienced driving on them through all four seasons without one problem. Keep up the good work Michelin.

Best truck tire on the market - bare none!

3.7 star average is nuts! I have had 2 sets of Defenders on my Ford Expedition. Nothing else compares! Amazing tread life - 70k is true. Amazing traction - WV mountains no slip, no slide, will go anywhere. Amazing quiet ride. The only tire to buy for your SUV - bare none!

Absolutely the best

I have had two sets of these tires and they are great. My first set came on my 2007 Honda Ridgeline. I traded it in still with the original tires on it at 91,000 miles in 2010. The same tires came on my 2010 Ridgeline. I just replaced those original tires after 101,000 miles. I bet you can guess what I replaced them with. Well worth a couple extra bucks for an extra 40,000 miles or so from competitor tires. A great product!!!

Had these tires on 2 SUVs ...

Had these tires on 2 SUVs (Suburban and Explorer) with similar results. Both vehicles handled like dreams even in snowy central New York winters. What topped it off was incredible mileage. I rotate tires regularly and check air pressure frequently but I wasn't expecting 60K+ miles from these 2 vehicles. OEM and other branded tires lasted 30-35K before requiring replacement. Overall, I would recommend to everybody!

I have had excellent ...

I have had excellent service with Michelin tires. They have been my tire of choice for over 30 years. The set I have on my Tundra has 60,000 + miles on them and they still preform very well. I hunt and therefore spend lots of time in the woods. They get me in and out of the red clay with no problems.

Jeep

Our Michelin LTX M/S are about 3 years old and are showing very little wear. They are great in wet and snowy conditions. I have them on a 1995 Jeep and they are smooth and quiet. When ever the weather is bad we can always rely on the Jeep with the Michelin tires.

Great Tire for Jeeps too

Over the years, I have allways preferred Michelin Tires on all my cars. Recently I put the LTX M/S 33 RWL tires on my 2005 Jeep Unlimited. I wanted to improve the ride comfort and still have a semi-agressive tread for those Jeep Moments when you need it. These tires do (improve the ride comfort), and do (push mud and water around) when you want them to. The LTX M/S also stands square and tall (looks good doing it).

Great tires

I took advantage of the deal my local tire dealer had on Michelin LTX Defender tires for my Ford f150. The ride is very quiet and smooth. This is my 3rd set of Michelin tires and I'm about to buy another set for my wife's car. I won't buy anything else! Michelins are the best .

Not impressive

It's a month and I am not impressed. I switched from Michelin Premiere which were very nice. Essentially it's like switching from nice and smooth ride to one in which you feel every vibration and bump on steering wheel. 1. The tires are louder than expected based on reviews. 2. I keep feeling vibration, even at very low speeds. The person in tire place checked and says everything looks right. It started with tire change so it is definitely tires not anything else in car. So this is definitely not comfortable drive tire. Probably good for trucks, but not other cars.
