Defenders on 2014 GMC Sierra

I needed to replace my stock Good Year Wranglers which I considered good tires at 95K. After careful research I settled on The Michelin Defender LTX M/S and they have exceeded my expectations in the first six weeks of driving. I am mostly highway with a mix of city driving averaging about 400 KM a week in northern Manitoba. The first week I had the tire we had constant wet greasy snow and for the last few weeks a mix of -30 to -10 and intermittent snow. These tires have exceeded my expectations for traction on the snow covered and slippery roads during acceleration cruise and stopping. They are quiet and provide a comfortable ride.

Looking forward to more great service with these tires

I just replaced our 2007 Sprinter's LTX M/S 2 tires with the Defender LTX (it seems the LTX M/S 2 was replaced by these), and wanted to mention that the M/S 2's were really a great set of tires. There was still a little tread left above the wear bars at 111,000 miles over five years of driving in all sorts of Texas weather. I also ride a road bicycle and am always pleased with Michelin's bicycle tires too.

LXMS TIRES

The first set of michelin tires on my vehicle lasted seven years. They were still in good condition (no stress lines or marks), so much that the tire dealer wanted to know if I really wanted to get new ones. He said they would be sold as used tires quickly because they were still in good condition. The second set of michelin tires on my vehicle lasted nine years. I just got new ones this year. The old ones taken off had a few stressed lines. Overall the tires were still in good condition. Michelin tires are the only ones I will purchase to put on my vehicle. They are the best! They have long ware, good balance, smooth drive, and overall trouble free. I love my michelin tires! They give me great service for years! It is what I need, excellent quality for my money.

These tires are great.

I travel in winter in northern Michigan and wanted a more aggressive tire than the touring tires that I had been using. These are rated a little lower in comfort and noise but I needed the traction and was willing to sacrifice a little. Now that I have been driving on them most of the winter, they are providing better traction in mud and snow than I expected. Also, I don't notice any increase in noise or decrease in comfort. I would recommend these for everyone.

Wow

Read several reviews that said these tires were too noisy. So I was a little worried. This worry was dashed as I drove from the store to the freeway and stretched my legs. It was a smooth and quiet ride. A huge improvement over the previous Bridgestones. So, the hype was misleading. Very pleased.

best tire on the market

without a doubt the best overall tires on the market. Best ride , wear and over all the best I have bought and would not buy anything else. Have bought 4 sets on different trucks in the last 15 to 20 years and never had a problem out of any of them and ran them all about 100,000 miles.

Smooth riding, long lasting tread

Use this tire for everyday city/interstate driving also backroads travel, through various different types of terrain. Experienced a smooth ride, traction over the various terrains, and extremely good tread wear. Road noise on paved roads, dependent on surface material is annoying at times overall good.

Best

I have a 1998 GMC Suburban. After I wore out the factory tires at @ 25,000 miles that came on this vehicle when I bought it new. I then decided to get Michelins, from past experience. I have over 180,000 miles on my truck. I am on my second set of Michelins and still going strong. I get a consistent 70,000 to 75,000+ on these tires. You do get what you pay for absolutely. Michelin,...see ya soon for my next set.

Smooth ride

I just drove a couple thousand miles on my new Michelin Defenders. Some of the ride was on I-40, perhaps the worst interstate in the system. But the tires smoothed the ride as much as could be expected. I wish all the money from hiway taxes went into roads for cars instead of bike lanes and squirrel sanctuaries.
