Bought my first set of LTX M/S Defenders in 2020. Still had lots of tread at 50K miles 5 years later. They started to get a little louder, but still performed well in dry and wet conditions. All four showed ever so small signs of cracking in the edge touching the rims. Hopefully these LTX M/S2 do as well. Very happy with Michelin tire performance on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland.

I put the Michelin Defender LTX M/S on my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee when the stock Goodyear Forteras wore out and didn't even make it to 30,000 miles. I put over 90,000 miles on those Michelins and they still had about 3 or 4 thousand more miles left in them. Those things were amazing given my driving habits. I have a lead foot, I corner hard, brake hard, and I travel at speeds I won't mention. I still can't believe I got so many miles out of them. I even hit a pothole so bad, it bent my rim, but the tire had zero damage. Just got the newer M/S2 version. So far, I'm just as pleased. Quiet and comfortable, but seem to handle a bit better. One of the most important things I liked about the originals was the ability to avoid hydroplaning on the highway, which is a must in South Florida. They maintained consistent performance in wet weather through most of it's treadwear life, only diminishing slightly in the last couple thousand miles. The previous Goodyears were never as good, and even scary after 25,000 miles on them. I haven't had a chance to go through heavy downpours yet, but I assume these newer generation Michelins will be just as good, if not better than previous set. If I find anything not as good as the originals, I'll update. For now, I'm very happy and I better be for the price I paid. Lol. Seriously though, when you factor in the performance and longevity, these tires are actually cheaper than comparable tires in the long run.

I've driven about 30,000 miles on these tires, and while tread life and traction are excellent, the noise is absolutely unbearable. From day one, the road noise has been loud, droning, and constant — it doesn't matter if I'm on a smooth highway, backroad, or city street. The sound fills the cabin and never stops. They've worn evenly and still have tons of tread left, but I honestly can't take it anymore. Nobody wants to ride with me and it gives my daughter instant headaches. For a tire that's marketed as quiet, this has been the complete opposite experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are thick, robust and resistant tires...! Even though I just installed them and can't give you mileage or longevity yet, I am impressed with these tires. I have used them for 1 month and we have seen heavy rain, no hydroplaning, snow and ice storms, no slippage and mainly ground grip on hilly descents. They have behaved quite well in the elements. They also run very smooth and quiet, and I feel like my vehicle handles quite well with these tires. I drive frequently so it's only been 1 month but I've already put about 1000 miles on them and have no complaints. I'll add it to my review when I've gotten a little more use out of them and update their performance at that time. So far, so good. If you are looking for a good set, I tell you not to be indecisive, play it safe with Michelin tires, buy these. I am convinced that these tires will prove their worth for a long time... and I will buy again if/when necessary...! There are many tires, many cheaper, but the quality and price of a good tire, you can't go wrong.

I have a Ford F150 King Ranch, and I bought this truck with 40K miles and the original tires. I now have 111,000 miles on it and still have tread left. Winter is around the corner, and I figured its time, so I have just bought a new set of the exact same tires and am expecting them to last another 100K+ miles. These tires are the best ever!! <3 my tires:)

I drove 102,000 miles on my previous set, rotated every 10k, pushed them a bit further than I should have, down to 2/32 at best. I will never buy anything other than these tires, just replaced the OEM Bridgestones on my 2021 Grand Cherokee L, 63,000 on those. I'm hoping for 90k to 100k from the Defender M/S2 that I just put on. Anyone saying these tires are loud has vehicle issues. New Michelins compared to the roar from OEM Bridgestone is like the difference between a football stadium when they score, to a night in the Arizona desert.

I was very disappointed with these tires. They were noisy, rode roughly, and couldn't be balanced correctly. Luckily my dealer took them off and switched them to Toyo tires. There's no comparison! My dealer told me that Michelin tires are going down in quality. I hated to hear that as I'd always been a loyal customer.

Michelin is the only tires I buy for our personal vehicles. Overall traction is great, and I feel safe during rainy day driving. Treadwear performance is excellent, and I have always accumulated at least 40,000 miles on every set of Michelin tires I have owned. I especially appreciate the comfort and handling they provide while driving my 4-wheel drive RAM pickup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tires are so nice on my vehicle! They definitely feel luxury compared to the thin cheap tires I was driving before. They seem like they will be very durable long-term and I would definitely recommend them to anybody looking for tires, as they seem perfect.

Back in May of 2019 I purchased a full set of 4 - 235/55R19 Michelin Defender LTX tires for our Ford Flex. I'd always been comfortable with Michelin tires for the quality of their construction and safe handling while driving. I also bought them for their mileage warranty! These came with a 65,000 miles guarentee! As of today Saturday 10/25/2025 my vehicle mileage is 89,497, and when I purchased these tires my mileage was approximately 05/09/2019 was 63,067 leaving a total mileage on the tires is only 26,430. My tires are in need of replacement "NOW", as they're only an 1/8th of an inch or less from reaching the wear indicaters in the tires, and the requiring new tires.
