Best tire you can ever purchase for family or any other kind of use. Tire is great in rain, snow and dry weather. Handling is great, breaking awesome, nice and quiet tire. No words to describe how good it is.

I purchased these tires based on consumer reviews of comfort handling, durability and treadwear, I have had them in the past and they were a terrific tire for my truck (Ram 2500) I was more than pleased with the tires.

well this is the first time me using Michelin tires and I think they're great tires they're holding up to my standards so far I haven't had a problem and they're some of the best I could get.

I've had Michelin Defenders on my last four trucks and all of them had long life, extremely high tread life, were very durable, towed with each and NEVER left me stranded. As a matter of fact, I've never had a flat or leak with Michelins thus I replace the factory set on my new trucks as soon as I purchase the truck. The comfort of the ride is always improved by the Michelins and peace of mind is guaranteed with every Michelin I've purchased in my life.

Had them before on my wifes QX80, then went with another tire the last time. I came back to these this time. they run quiet, they did great for my wife in both the rain and the snow. They also lasted really close to their general rated amount.

I’m very happy with the quality of the tire but I feel I choose the wrong model for my truck. It’s very loud on the road , I’m very unhappy with the tires .

Smooth and quiet!! I replaced a set of original factory tires on my Chevy Tahoe, what a difference! I immediately noticed the quieter ride with much less road noise and less shock over bumps in the road. Will see how they do in the long run.

I heard the name "Michelin Man" decades ago. My first introduction to car safety came from seeing a blowout at high speed. A man who rebuilt a big-block in my Mustang explained that the best tires are Michelin. Decades later, a microburst dropped a record 19 inches of rain per hour on I-45. I could see the rooster tail of the water my tires pumped out of the way as I moved forward. Countless vehicles around me went off the road. Many were hurt, two died, and I was shaken. And the ride is quieter, more comfortable, and always gets me where I am going. So, yeah, you can call me a Michelin Man!

Just couldn’t say enough. Paying a little bit more money upfront means a huge return later on down the road so to speak. My Michelin defender ones lasted 70,000 miles and we’re showing slight signs of cracking. The traction was still very good and if I had to, I could’ve pushed it another year. I had them rotated and balanced once about 40,000 miles ago, we’ve been across the country twice and I tow regularly. Just doubled down on a good thing then purchased the defender twos. Best of the best in my opinion. If there had to be one complaint with the first tire would be that it picked up small rocks on gravel surfaces. A very small price to pay, Along with the cost for this type of quality. The quiet, the ride quality, limited body roll, etc. I put them on my dad‘s car, on my wife’s Prius and on our work truck. Don’t get me started lol! I’ll never buy another brand of car tire again.

When ordering a new GMC, I read as many tire reviews as I could find. The Michelin Defender LTX M/S generation 2 was receiving rave reviews. After a lifetime of burning through all brands of tires on a variety of sports cars, trucks and passenger cars, experience has taught me to stick with Michelin. And these new Gen 2 offerings were the best performing truck tire for the road, bar none. They also had the best warranty. They are more than adequate for light off roading and boat ramps, but on the road are the smoothest and quietest tires I hae had on any truck. I’ve run everything, from road tires to All Terrains to Mud tires, even installing non radial tires on a swamp buggy I owned. (Safer when airing down for very rugged conditions off road-Florida is 90% sugar sand and like 10% mud, so All Terrains and M/S tires generally do better on most conditions. The ride after installing thee tires is WAY better than any others I’ve used. The tires are so quiet I initially was hesitant while towing. But the traction is excellent off road with the sipes on the side and the generally self cleaning tread. More importantly, handling in bad weather and wet braking are all excellent. High speed travel on the interstate is very quiet and composed, just like a passenger cars tire. The occasional road trash and a couple poorly laid curbs and damaged asphalt have caused no damage, as the tires stayed in balance and showed no punctures or cuts. I do make a point of rotating every oil change an remove any stuck gravel or debris every time I wash the truck. I have automotive engineers in the family who advise running 80% of the max pressure on the sidewall and this has yielded very long tread life. I have absolutely no complaints and when my youngest son returns from college I will be putting Defenders on his Nissan as well. These tires cost a little more than average but give you much longer tread life and superior handling and braking. There are many good tires on the market but Michelin generally excels in every category for most people. When in doubt, just get Michelin. There is a reason why my company only used Michelin on the truck fleet when I was i the trades. This particular model is another win for Michelin.
