I have been a lifelong Michelin customer. Recently purchased these and my highway fuel economy dropped from 19mpg to around 16.6mpg. I have these tires on a 2013 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali which replaced an older set of LTX M/S2 tires that were great. These also have more road noise than the previous model of tire. I've seen reviews that provide the explanation that newer tires are more grippy so i should expect some loss of fuel economy and noise, but this is the first that i have ever experience in a tire from michelin. My previous tire, put them on and all was good, nice and quiet, with the fuel economy that i would expect.

These tires are awesome. The traction is great. The do great in any type of weather. These tires have almost no road noise. They make my 2008 feel like newer car with the way tires handle. These tires are well worth the money that cost you wont be sorry u purchased them

These tires do pretty good in most conditions (dry wet snow dirt). They are comfortable and pretty quiet. The only issue I had was when it was wet, and I had to accelerate quicker than usual the front tires word spin for a second but breaking in the wet conditions was fine.

I had Michelin Defender tires for 2 years. They were awesome! These tires really stuck to the road, and I felt safe even when it rained. They hardly wore out, so I didn't have to buy new ones. It was like having a reliable friend on the road. I'll definitely get them again. Great tires!

Amazing how well these hold up off-road on my job site. Even in the mud they keep going. Nice quiet ride on the way home. Super long tread life. Amazing grip, really unstopped in snow and ice. When they were installed they balanced super easy and ride so smooth. Wide range of sizes for all vehicles!

Michelin Defender Tires They make great affordable tires, and safety is a must on the mountain in the wintertime. Great performance, smooth riding, quiet tires, very comfortable ride. Installation was a bit pricey,I need 5 new ones on my SUV now. Yes,I recommend these tires.

I have been employed by Ford dealer for many years and have experience with many different tire brands. Michelin tires have always been the best built tires in my experience.The initial quality is very consistent.Today I installed 4 MICHELIN® Defender® LTX® M/S 245/65R17 tires on my 2008 Ford Explorer. I used Hunter GSP9700 balancer. All tires had Road Force Measurement less than 11 lbs. By moving tires on the rim, I managed to drop Road Force Measurements to 2 lbs,9 lbs, 4 lbs and 8 lbs and matched front tires to 0 lbs Net Pull. And this is pretty heavy truck tire. The Road Force limit for P-metric and Euro-metric tires is 26 lbs.

excellent durability, long tread life, and reliable all-season traction. Its smooth, quiet ride and fuel-efficient design make it a top choice for everyday driving. Though slightly pricey, its performance, comfort, and safety features provide great value for city and highway use.

I absolutely love these tires and honestly, I wouldn't put anything else on my vehicle. The lasts set I purchased lasted 9 years! No, o don't drive a lot, but I live in Charleston, SC, and the summer sun and sea breeze can wreck a good thing fast. These tires hold up!!! They have excellent traction and they are just glide down the road.

I just returned from a trip in my Ford F150 from Strathroy Canada to Dallas Texas towing a 7000# trailer and I am more than happy with the control I felt from these tires. Each truck I have bought came with different tires, but when the trucks needed new tires, they were always Michelin.
