I purchased these tires after 6 years and 30k miles on my Michelin Defender LTX M/S. I was a little leery with the UTQG Traction rating dropping to B from the previous A but with tread life listed similarly and great previous performance, I gave them a shot. I've driven 2,500 miles before posting the review. The M/S2 are fantastic on dry pavement and dissipate water very well. Unfortunately, around 35 F they become noticeably harder and break free much easier on cold or wet pavement compared to the previous M/S. With that, my initial assumption is that they have worse performance but herein lies the paradox. While they don't seem great getting moving and break free easy on acceleration, they seem hold true and stop well once in motion. Snow performance is similar to the aforementioned, but again cornering is fairly steady until acceleration is applied. The truck will still go where it's intended, but with considerably more wheel spin than the previous M/S in 2H. MPG appears to be comparable between the 113T SL M/S and 117T XL M/S2. Both ride quiet and have good feel when braking. They have a good look but not overly aggressive and don't pick up too many rocks. I would 100% recommend these for those who rarely experience snow or cold but would probably stick to swapping these out for Michelin Ice X for the cooler or snow filled months or plan to use full time AWD and the possibility of reduced tread life due to the additional slipping.

I've purchased Michelin tires previously and I've been very pleased with the durability performance and handling. The tires have produced a very smooth ride. Please note the tires I'm reviewing are based on previous purchases not these particular tires.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This set of tires works well on my SUV. They are quiet and handle well in the rain.

These tires ride much better than the ones I replaced. The jury is out on their ability to reduce hydroplaning, which is the reason I purchased them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tires last for many miles. Our truck has over 350K miles. All on Michelins.

Love these tires second set I've had on this vehicle. I've always bought Michelin tires for all my vehicles. They are reliable and they stand behind their product.

Wet traction and water displacement is very good. Quiet and very stable at all speeds. Snow traction was a very big surprise. Had some very snowy weather this year and had no issues.

Michelin is just an overall great tire. I put these on after the tread wore out on my previous Michelin Defender tires.
