I have used Michelin tires on my trucks for 15 years or more. I tried other brands and most of them would not ride smooth for any length of time. Michelin tires always run smooth and don't bounce. I pull a travel trailer many times a year with some trips coast to coast and never worry about tire failure running Michelin and always have a smooth ride. These tires always last at least 60,000 miles and have never had a flat with them. I will be converting my Honda Accord to Michelin within the next month to finally get a smooth ride. Love my Michelin tires!!

My previous tires (another brand) were smooth as glass on my 2014 Buick Enclave, but they were exceptionally noisy and wore out in less than half the miles warranted. I put on these Michelins, and aftrer three tire shop balances, they were still vibrating. Noise level was fine, but the shook the entire car above 60 mph. My favorite independent auto repair shop discovered that my tire shop had not distributed the weights correctly on these Michelins, and gave me a proper, courtesy re-balance. That made a big improvement, but there is still a slight vibration above 60 mph. This is not my first set of Michelins. Most have been great, although there was one set that did not deliver on the treadwear mileage. Besides the ongoing vibration problem, these Michelins are the roughest riding tires I have ever owned. They transmit every pebble and pavement crack through the entire car. They even vibrate over glass-smooth asphalt. I am extremely unhappy with these Defender LTX M/S - so much so that I will likely never buy another Michelin tire.

My new GMC 1500 Denali came from the factory with Bridgestone tires. I asked the dealership to change out to Michelin that I had been running various models on my trucks for over 30 years. They declined and said the Bridgestone tires were "just as good". At 186 miles, on the freeway at 80 mph the left rear Bridgestone completely came apart. It delaminated like retreads do on tractor trailers. I was able to pull the truck over, put on the spare and drove back to the dealership I've never had a tire come apart like that. After a bit of a discussion with the Sales Manager the dealer persuaded GMC to replace the tires with the Michelin Defender LTX M/S. Couldn't be happier. The tire is quiet, handles like a dream and I don't worry about the quality. "Just as good" means inferior in my mind.

I have had two sets of these tires. One set on a 4x4 4 dr Chevy Blazer and 4x4 GMC Envoy. These tires are great in the slush and snow of upstate New York. I have great confidence driving in 4x4 with my LTX tires. They are well worth the money except i wish they did not wear so fast. Not a great a ride on the highway as the Cross Terrian tires i previously had.

I have loaded over twice the recommended capasity in my 2500 ram on numerious occassions. When I changed out the first factory set of Michelin's, they had over 85,000 miles with out a problem. My second set suffered the same treatment and were changed out when the odometer hit 180,000, without a dought these are best set of tires I've ever owned,

Michelin in my opion are THE BEST TIRE on the market. Have had them on all my vehicles. Replaced the set on my GMC Pick/up (daily driver) after 75,000 + miles with a new set of Michelins, and put the old set on the farm Pick/up last year. Also have them on the Wife's Yukon and they have 60,000 + miles on them and still have plenty of tread left. You won't get that kind of ware out any of your competitors!

I have had my tires for about 10,000 miles. They are very quiet, and give me a smooth ride as well. I believe in Michelin tires and have purchased them for half of my life. They have never failed me and I have never had a problem with any of my Michelin tires getting cupped on the edges and making noise. They are not the cheapest tire but they are worth the cost in the long run. Spend the time to rotate them every 5000 miles and they will last you a long time.

These are the second set of 235 R 16 LTX MS tires. The first set lasted 70,000 miles. The tires ride, road noise, and overall performance are excellent for a truck tire.When it comes time to purchase tires for our other 2 vehicles, we will buy Michelin.

I purchased my Michelin Defender tires for my 2020 Ford Edge a little over a year ago. We had a couple of road trips on the new tires and the Defender gives a very smooth and quiet ride. The Defender LTX tires performed very well through winter as well. I would definitely recommend Michelin Defender LTX tires to anyone in need of tires.

Had my LTX M/S tires for a year. They are fantastic! I've probably put 10,000 miles on them and they still look new. I've bought many sets of Michelin over the years and they've all stood up well for distance driving and local driving. I live in the NC mountains, so they really have to grip a lot of curbs--and they do grip. Pay the extra; it's worth it!
