Pretty disappointing tire

Have had these tires for 6 years now on a 2002 Nissan Xterra. Got them for the mileage warranty and the supposed superior traction. These tires have about 30,000 miles on them and only have 4/32nds left of tread. Definitely did not make the 70,000 miles. They never got any flats though. They have been decent tires in wet weather and snow, but nowhere near dedicated snow tires. They were fairly quiet brand new, but got much louder as they wore down. After 6 years and being on a car that is outside almost all the time, they have developed a good amount of age cracking which is expected from really any tire that sits out in the sun, rain, heat, and cold like they do. For the price of the tire, though, you can get other tires that are nearly the same for much less money. I don't think I'll purchase another set of these tires.

Best light truck and SUV all-terrain tire

I have found the best light truck and SUV all-terrain of all time. I will be happy After I get our 5th set installed next week. Long lasting. Great traction wet, dry, and snow. They are worth the money for peace of mind. Quiet ride. Once you get about 3 years on any tire they start to get loud, hard, and slick tread. The defender ltx ms2 do not.

Great tire would buy again!

I have the mtx m/s and use them on my GMC 4/4. These tires will exceed treadlife specified. Mine have 60,000 on them and still some left butt will probably buy new ones before winter. Very good on wet roads without hydroplaning. They plow through snow and have never gotten hung up or skidded even during the ice storm. The only negative thought I have is they are a little above average in road noise butt not a problem. I just bought a set of defender series tires for my sons Accord. He likes his tires more than his girlfriend! He is hooked on Michelin tires just like me. I will never again buy any tire other than Michelin. Worth every penny!

" Michelin equals security on he road"

Security on the road is the most important reason I buy Michelin tires for my vehicles. I feel safe with my family knowing I've equiped my SUV and cars with the quality of Michelin tires. They make my vehicles handle like they should in any condition wet or dry, hot or cold I know I can depend on my Michelin's.

Installed 17 Years & Still Great Tread & Running Smooth

Had 4 of these put on my truck in 2003 and all still have good tread and have had ZERO issues. Changing these out for 4 new Michelins X LT AS just because of age. Decided to go with the other model due to the reviews here and I hope it will not be a mistake.

Bought these for my ...

Bought these for my wife's explorer sport '02. wanted something to be able to handle wet roads as well as slight off-road conditions. Very pleased at the ride quality, low road noise and wet, lick, road handleing. Took it off-road and was very impressed. Massive mud puddle with no wheel spin at all. I feel very safe with my wife behind the wheel now.

I purchased four new LTX M/S tires for our 2003 Honda Pilot in June 2005 to replace the OEM tires after a noisy 48,846 miles. I checked the mileage this morning before writing this review: 158,001 miles, and the tread is still well above the wear bars! Great tires!

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 .

Love my Michelins!

My Michelin's are a great performer. They hug the highway and take curves at high speed with ease. I can trek through snow and rain with confidence as tires give me traction to pull through an intersection or the bite to stop on a dime. I love, love, love my Michelin's.
