I have these tires on my 06 4X4 Dodge Diesel and they are not at all to be used on regular dirt roads (not off-roading). I have gotten two flats where the tires were penetrated by a rock. Too expensive for the quality of tire. This tire is designed for people that never get off the highway for anything.

I have used LTX M/S on both of my trucks and have been very pleased with the ride and quality of the tire. I get more mileage out of these tires than any other brand of tires. I have been running these tires for years and will not buy any other tire. Very pleased.

Michelin LTX M/S tires have 30,000 miles plus and show no signs of wear while performing excellently in show, ice, rain as well as dry conditions. Braking and control in all conditions are excellent! Ride is comfortable and tires can be inflated to handle trailer and heavy loads.

I had a 1998 Ford Ranger 4 X4 had serval sets of tires on my truck but none of them out performed the LTX/MS . Truck was used for everyday use tires where rotated on a regular bascis. Bought tires in 2007 and they are still on the truck today 2013. Michelin tires are the only tires that I buy I have them on all my vecheils

I purchased my first set of Defenders about 3 years ago. 245-75-17s (with "E" duty rating). Long story short, I got 90,000 miles on my first set of Defenders. I towed as much as 6,000 pounds on these tires, and loaded upwards of 3,200 in the bed of the truck on these tires. I was impressed, and continued to remain impressed. I could have reached 100,000 on this first set of Defenders but I do have my limits. I recently upgraded to larger tires for my truck. 285-70-17s. I stayed with the Defenders. So far, so good.

On my last set of MS tires I did have one tire that seemed to growl when it was on the right front where I guess I could hear it better. Thinking the noice was a wheel bearing, I had asked the service technician to check the bearing but he said it was the tire.

These tires are excellent on wet roads and in snow and ice and wear very well. This is hard to beat for skiing and wet conditions. Handling is also good. They do ride a little rougher than the original passenger tires but I consider this an excellent trade off.

I have always had great luck with Michelin tires and these are great. Current road trip (about 5,000 miles ) these tires performed great . Weather conditions were from dry to heavy rain , From high humidity to no humidity.Michelin is and will always be my number one choice in tires.

I have 2005 Colorado pickup and I bought the LTX MS tires for it. I thought I was going to have to bury the truck with these tires on it. They lasted for 110000 miles and look good when I replaced them. Of coarse I replaced them with LTX MS tire and when ask why I bought Michelins again I responded by telling them (didn't you hear me I had 110000 miles. Yes they cost a little more but I could buy 1 set of LTX instead of 2 sets of another brand. In fact the old set is still being use on a Farm trailer. and still look good.

I had a set of these on my Chevy Blazer some years back. I kept them rotated and balanced every 5,000 miles. I got 102,000 miles out of these tires. I thought they would dry rot before I would wear them out. I only buy Michelin tires for my vehicles. If they come with some other tire when purchased new then I swap out to Michelin.
