Mounted on F350 4X4. ...

Mounted on F350 4X4. Tires now have 40,000 miles, and appear to be almost new (Hope to "get" another 40K). Ride is difficult to evaluate, with a vehicle that normally has a stiff ride, but is acceptable when such is taken into consideration. Mileage on this vehicle is never going to be comparable to any smaller vehicle , but 15 to 18 mpg on the road is reasonable with an engine of this size (7.3L). Would I purchase them again?? With no hesitation.

I perchased the Michelen LTX M/S tires for my 2002 Chevrolet Suburban in 2006 after getting 50,000 miles on the origenal set.I truely could not beleave the differance in the way my suburban handled and the ride was better than when I perchased it in 2002. I now have 105,000 miles my suburban an the tires still handle great. I now have 65,000 miles on them and feel I can still get another 10 to 20 thousand miles on them.I feel that that is excellient for a large SUV. I will diffenitley replace them with a new set again.

Will NOT Balance... and keep getting worse!

I have been buying Michelin LTX tires for many years now too include the MS/2 version. Without hesitation the LTX MS/2 were the best tires I have ever seen put on a truck. However with the advent of their new Defender series, I can honestly say they are the worst LTX tires they have ever made, they just will not balance out, the more I drive them the more they shake and shimmy. Last pair of LTX MS/2 had 115,000 miles on them, my 2002 Z71 Tahoe... LT285/70/17. The old tires had a better ride than the new tires do, (Defenders)... Shame, time to find another tire and manufacturer, never thought I would be saying that about the LTX Dave

great features

I have used the defender tires for years on my vehicles and love them in every way. Bought a chev pu and the tires were still good, but did not like them and had to replace with these defender tires , could not wait the other tires were loud and did not drive as nice. I will only use michelin tires. My spouse does think it makes that much difference but it does.

Excellant Tire

I shopped around a variety of tires for my Ford F150. After looking a lot of different brands and styles, decided I like the Michelin LTX best of all. The tire handles extremely well in rain or snow. Grips the road well. especially on turns. I feel very confident when I am on the road with this tire. One of the better tires I have come across in my years in the car repair business.

I currently have just under 40,000 miles on the tires and they still look and work great. They work in the wet, in the snow and they handle twisty roads with ease. I will definitely be getting another set when these finally wear out. Given the performance of these LTX's and the Pilot Sports on my other car, my wife's car will be getting Michelin Primacy MXV4's when she needs tires.

Smooth and Quiet - Excellent Traction

Smooth and Quiet - Excellent Traction Just put a set on my wife's Grand Cherokee Ltd. . So far, excellent handling on any road type, quiet and secure feeling while driving at any speed. Have M/S's on my Commander and love them too. Best tire for endurance, range and quality for the price.

I now have over 75,000 miles on this set, I rotate them every 5000 miles. I feel they will go 100,000. You pay more up front but these tires will give you your investment back. My wifes Tahoe also now has Michelins & it rides like a dream. I am on my third set. OK I' m sold !! RA

Balance Problems

Bought a set of these Oct 2018 for my 2015 Ram 2500 to replace the Firestone OE tires at 25784 miles. DOT codes B71500AX0218,0318,5017,&5017. OK on backroads which is most of use, but very bad vibration at highway speeds 70-80mph. Checked alignment and checked for bent wheel - all ok. Rebalanced a month later at 27552 miles. Same problem. Rebalanced and switched Front to Rear at 28571 miles - problem almost completely cured. Rotated by dealer at 35015 miles - problem back. Rebalanced and switched front to rear at 36693 miles and again problem improved to acceptable level. Dealer rotated again at 40488 miles and problem on Interstates back as bad as ever. Rebalanced and swapped front to rear again and again acceptable at 42991 miles. Put 100k miles on F250 with previous design and never had a problem. Put 260k miles on 4 sets of Michelins on 2006 Toyota Avalon - no problem. Put 100k so far on Michelins on 2015 Avalon and 45k on 2019 Sequoia - again no problem - so it has to be something in at least one of the Defender LTX tires most likely one of the ones currently on rear. Definitely not what I expect from Michelin - Currently 45k miles on truck. Trying to figure out where to go next. Not happy with Defenders.

Smoother and more stable.

These make my 2004 explorer more stable, quieter, and overall a much smoother ride. It literally changed the way the entire ride feels. It's not as splashy (sways less also) and definitely feels much more solid, but not firm or harsh. Wet weather is no problem and it handles snow well also. Would have bought M/S 2's but they were not available in size I needed fort limited edition explorer.
