Smooth as butter!

I put these on my 2015 GMC Sierra 2500HD and it has produced the smoothest highway ride of any tire I have used on any truck I have owned! The reason I became attracted to this tire is because it is rated highest by consumer reports. I cannot vouch for the traction on snow yet, but I the tire performs excellent on wet and rainy roads. A good value for a great tire!

Second Try with Michelin

I purchased the predecessor (Non Defender) LTX M/S tires about 2.5 years ago. Warranty was for 70,000 miles but I only made it to 47,000 miles and was at or below the wear bars. Tires were rotated and balanced every 7500 miles. I did get credit back for the shortfall in mileage and now have the Defender tires on my truck. Hopefully this time they will make it to the 70K. Pretty disappointed in the fact that my first set of Michelin's did so poorly. Truck is just a daily driver not used for work. Tires performed well but 47K is not even close to the warranty.

Great tire for small SUV/Crossover

I've been waiting for some ice and snow to test these little babies! We got it now, here in Montana!! At first, I was concerned that these tires would be too noisy or reduce fuel economy too much on my 2013 RAV 4. Totally unfounded!! These seem to be great tires here in snow country! The rubber compound seems soft and tacky in the cold temps, and seems to grip the roadways better. Braking in snowy/icy conditions feels strong and I just plowed thru 9" fresh snow confidently They give me a soft, comfortable ride on the hiway. I am totally pleased with my purchase so far (about 1500 miles on them) and plan to put a set on our Honda CRV.

MICHELIN ARE THE ONLY TIRES FOR OUR BUISNESS

WE HAVE MANY VEHICLES ON OUR FARM MICHELIN GIVE US THE MOST KMS THAN ANY OTHER TIRE WE EVER USED. THERE WARRANTY IS THE BEST AND THERE DURABILITY IS FANTASTIC. WE HAVE 4 PICKUPS AND 2 SUV ALL RUNNING MICHELIN TIRES. YOU CAN EXPECT TO GET OVER 110000KMS PER SET. WE FIGURED OUT THEY COST US LESS THAN 1 CENT PER KM FOR ALL FOUR TIRES THEY ARE SIMPLY THE BEST. ON THE 2010 F150 THE MICHELIN TIRES WERE 4 YRS OLD AND OVER 130000KMS ON THAT SET. THE TIRES WERE STILL NOT TOTALLY DONE BUT WE THOUGHT IT WAS TIME WE GOT GREAT VALUE AGAIN THANK YOU MICHELIN

Defender LTX M/S

Michelin customer since early 1980's. Use Michelin tires on all my vehicles,including motorcycle. Could always make a purchase being confident in the quality of the tires. July 6,2017 purchased new Defender LTX M/S to replace the LTX AT tires that had 55000 miles on them. The AT tires performed excellently. Change to Defender since I only drive on road. Have driven just over 500 miles on new tires and can't believe these are Michelin tires. Road noise is terrible,smoothness of ride ridiculously poor. Old tires at 55000 out performed these. 2 Hr.Highway ride with wife and she commented on the poor ride. Would not recommend these tires.

Second time...just as charming.

Following my fathers advice, who is a professional tour bus driver, I have purchased Michelin tires for my families cars for 30 years. My latest set replace M/S LTX that just passed 75,000 miles. If not for the toe being out a bit on my car, I might have managed another 5,000+ miles. Stoked!!

Michelin Defender LT27570R18

I put these tires on my diesel pickup. I pull a 40 ft fifth wheel trailer. They really are nice on the hwy. They rid a lot better that the original Michelin tires from the factory when new. When driving on roads that have been cracked filled across the width of the lanes with tar, they take most of the bumps out .and gives a nice smooth ride. I have not found anything with these tires that I do not like. They are good. So far so good but then I have always liked Michelin Tires.

Disappointed.

Smooth enough ride, feels like a sure grip ... but a tad noisy compared to our previous tires. The biggest disappointment is with the mileage. After expecting a modest improvement based on the marketing claims, our mileGe actually dropped from 10.7 to 11.5 with our mid-sized SUV ... same driving environment and driving habits ... 25/75 city/highway driving. Would not recommend these tires yet, based on our 2,000 km experience. The value just isn't there. We were expecting more from our first ( and, sadly, probably our last) purchase of this brand.

Set 4 and only getting better

Excellent tire. Great for holding down cost of long distance commuting. Been driving on Michelin tires for 40 years and they just keep getting better. I don't even look at other brands when replacing and won't buy a new car unless it comes with Michelins. Just took off my last LTX's at 73,000 miles and probably could have gone to 80K before getting to the wear bar but, the rainy season is just around the corner and I really wanted the tread depth back. Used to live up North and these LTX's were great in the snow too. Truly the best all-round tire. And, they're round so, none of the wump wump wump you here with some other brands.
