Nice quiet ride.

I've had these tires on my F150 for a couple of months now and they are the quietest, smoothest riding tire I have ever owned. My truck is 9 years old and I've gone through 2 sets of tires from another manufacturer in 100,000 kms. With 115,000 km wear warranty on these Michelins, I'm sure I will be replacing the truck long before the tires wear out. The higher load rating is a bonus as I use my truck for towing and hauling about half of the time.

long lasting tire

I replaced a set of big lug mud and snow tires that were horrible in the snow, these tire bite the snow and ice and brought back confidence on the snowy Vermont roads I travel in the winter. Just about every drive home was in a snowstorm, these tires perform well.

Best all around tires available!

This is my 3rd set of Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires. They last a long time! I rotate them every 6000 miles. They handle well in wet and snowy conditions. My vehicle tracks better with Michelin tires. I have them on my Suburban and my 2500 HD. both "E" rated. They're great no matter what the task, from hauling just myself around to fully loaded with passengers and luggage, to towing my 32' travel trailer. These tires are quiet as well. I have had many other tire brands, some good some bad, but Michelin are the best and well worth the little extra they cost.

Not at all satisfied

Purchase these tire based on past experience with Michelin. Returned the next day with a vibration thought it was bad balancing, the second balancing did nothing complained with no results. A few weeks later went to my dealer and had the tires balanced again but to no avail. Returned to the supplier that I staled them and was told the they had found a problem with some on these tires. Asked for resolution and was told it was complicated. Finally they will replace these defective tires but I will have to pay for the wear on them. This is not rite as I have been complains since day one. No happy about this at all.

Great 3 season tires!

I bought these tires more than a year ago. I call them 3 season tires as we have 6 months of snow tire necessity in the north. I always buy the best I can afford and Michelin is a very good price for the quality. My wife and I both feel safe on wet or dry pavement and I have found that the road noise in our SUV has decreased dramatically since changing to Michelin. I have always leaned toward Michelin for the reasons above and lastly, if we get caught in an early snowstorm or ice storm I will always feel safe. We have the Defender LTX M/S

Defenders on 2014 GMC Sierra

I needed to replace my stock Good Year Wranglers which I considered good tires at 95K. After careful research I settled on The Michelin Defender LTX M/S and they have exceeded my expectations in the first six weeks of driving. I am mostly highway with a mix of city driving averaging about 400 KM a week in northern Manitoba. The first week I had the tire we had constant wet greasy snow and for the last few weeks a mix of -30 to -10 and intermittent snow. These tires have exceeded my expectations for traction on the snow covered and slippery roads during acceleration cruise and stopping. They are quiet and provide a comfortable ride.

Defender LTX M/S Tires

I was told that these tires could be put on my Ford Taurus SEL, He said theses tires were for a car, then I told him that LTX means for Light Truck. I love the tires and they handle excellant, but I still have my doubts about these tires being for a car. So you tell me Michelin.

Great tires

I bought my latest set of these Michelin tires about six months ago and they are as I expected them to be, quiet, smooth riding and showing very little tread wear. They have trouble free as well, but this is not a surprise to me, as I have had several sets of Michelins over the years. They are my go to brand of tires for sure. Trouble free and outstanding wear performance. Highly recommended if you are looking for the same. I will buy again without any hesitation for sure.

Perfect

265 70-R16 on 2012 Nissan Frontier 4x4 Crew Cab. Less rolling resistance, less than 1/2 previous tire noise, perfectly smooth ride, excellent traction, when accelerating, slowing, or turning. Highly recommended. No other companies tires are even close.
