Awesome product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Defender® LTX M/S2 are a great set of tires. My husband was very happy to receive these to put on his truck. They are a very high quality tire, easy smooth ride. Also work well off road. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for this type of product.

Noisy!. Beware.

I've been buying Michelin tires for as long as I can remember. Always had good luck with them. But this new Defender LTX m/s2 Tire is so hard and it creates a rumble/road whine in my truck, especially on Country Blacktop roads. I got a 2024 truck that I'm really proud of but these tires are probably the worst michelins I've ever owned. The dealer said I can swap them but in my size 275-60-20 there's nothing to choose from but a more aggressive tire( no way). I'm hesitant to switch brands but I may have to do that at a dear cost to my pocketbook. ( Dealer has said he would swap tires out for another Michelin but they dont make my size in less aggressive tires as they have really pulled back on choices).Shame on you Michelin for leaving this tire size absent on your other popular quiet tires and making such a hard tire just to get higher lingevity ratings!

Great fit!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been meaning to change my tires for some time now. I stumbled upon Michelin tires and I don’t regret it. The tires fit perfectly on my car, and it feels really good driving with them. I have no complains so far and I hope these tires will serve me well.

2016 Ford F250

I recently purchased a set of these Defender LTX M/S2 tires for my F250. Tire size is LT275/65R18. They replaced a set of off road tires that were loud and made for a harsher than normal ride. I've always been a fan of Michelin tires on my trucks but I think these are the best tires I've ever bought. The change is ride quality and noise is nothing less than remarkable. The ride on my truck is much smoother and now it sounds like the interior of a luxury sedan rather than a truck. The truck pulled very slightly to the right with the old tires but the Michelins solved that problem. They look good, they ride good and they're very quiet on the highway (where my truck is used nearly exclusively). I was reluctant to spend so much for tires but I'm very happy I did. Highly recommended.

Not as good as the original LTX Defender

I was hoping these tires were as good as the previous ones, but I was wrong. These tires are louder and seem to inhibit more road vibration. I have had them balanced again but they still have an issue. The previous LTX Defenders I had were smooth had hardly any road noise and felt more sure footed. This comparison is after the 50 or 60k miles I had on the old ones, up until the day I swapped them out. I don't know who they paid to design these tires but I would hope they get rid of them and find the old team that designed the previous generation tire. The only thing I can say that is about the same is the gas mileage. So I will give a 1 star for at least keeping one aspect of the tire the same. Please get back to being the Michelin brand that used to mean something. I will definitely save my money next time and get a different brand at half the price, it surely couldn't be any worse.

Great Tires

The Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 has very good grip cornering and is very quiet for a tire that has an aggressive tread design. I have only owned the tires for 4 hours but I have already put the tires on several tests, including cornering and stopping. I am very satisfied with these tires, as I have been with other Michelin tires purchased over the past 20 or so years.

Great tires!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the Michelin line of tires since they have always done well for me. These Defender tires are no exception- perfect combination of value and durability. Perfect for what my family requires in the rainy yucky seasons of Louisiana!

love these tires!!!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am female, and dont know a whole of technical stuff about tires, but I do know I am really happy to have these tires for my Tahoe. they seem to make the drive quieter and when we hit a slick patch of road while driving in very cold temps the tires dug in and we did not skid. made me feel very safe. a big plus-they look very cool on my Tahoe, and after driving on them for a several weeks the still look brand new.

Superior in Confidence!

I bought them 5 months ago and put 6663 miles on them so far. They are quiet and sturdy giving me complete confidence that they will provide more miles than what they are rated for (70,000). I put them on a 2017 Lexus GX460. They destroyed my MPG ~30%. I still love them!

Good tires!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tires are great and I’m so happy I have them for my truck. I feel so much better knowing I have these tires, especially where I live it is always raining and flooded and these tires make me feel so much safer!
