After 15 years of ...

After 15 years of "Michelin only", thinking I should be more frugal, I ran through two sets of a competitor's brand, never coming close to Michelin's performance or longevity! Before leaving for our summer vacation '10, I put a full set on our all-wheel drive SUV, and the difference was AMAZING ... driving was a pleasure, like a million little fingers were gripping the road as we drove cross-country through Virginia's scenic highways ... the ride was far more comforatble, and fuel economy actually increased! My earlier Michelin sets had always had good tread up to the milage forecast ... not so with "brands X" ... I'm so glad to be back in safe hands ... clearly, my Michelin tires are still the best investment I can make for my family's transportation.

I have never had tires last like these!

I am now on my second set of these tires and will buy them again in another 8 years if I still have my RAV4. I had over 86,000 miles on the first set and only replaced them after the combination of extreme dryness, cold and heat in AZ caused the sidewall to crack. Amazingly, there was still quite a bit of tread left on the tires. Expensive, yes, but definitely worth every penny!

I have purchased (2) sets of LTX MS ( l set on a 1990 Jeep cherokee laredo, and on a 1997 grand cherokee laredo. Both sets have been excellent, with the set on 1997 jeep still with more than half the tread after 40,000 miles. I intended on getting these for my wife's 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo, but unfortunately I couldn't afford them at the time. Also, the tires on the 1997 have been on for 8 years. I have recommended these tires to several of my friends, and I know least three have purchased the LTX MS. These tires are outstanding for all season, long mileage, and quite/smooth ride.

Vibration is an issue

I always buy Michelin. I installed a set of these tires on my F-150 December 2016. When it's very cold these tires literally shake my truck as if they are solid, I am talking temperatures in the teens. They ride like that for miles. As the temperatures warm up, they still shake quite a bit until they are driven maybe 20 miles at expressway speeds. At temperatures over 65 degrees, these tires ride smooth as glass, so I know that my vehicle does not have any mechanical issues. I can't stand the vibrations these tires cause, very annoying ride! I more than likely will have to dispose of a brand new set of tire and find something else.

Great tire for certain vehicles

I purchased these tires for a Escape Hybrid in November. These tires replaced the Michelin Lattitude Tour series (which is no longer offered in this size) based on Michelin's recommendations. These tires are essentially a light truck tire with extra load capacity, so the ride quality is notably harsh and there is more tread noise at low speeds. The total rolling resistance is considerably higher, lowering the Average Fuel Economy on the Escape by over 8 MPG. This tire is a good choice for light trucks and larger heavier SUV's, but a poor choice for smaller SUV's or hybrids.

Simply the best all season tires.

We have been driving with MICHELIN LTX MS for a long time.They are quite riding, long lasting with good fuel mileage. Excellent in rain and snow but not icey roads. I have used them year round with no problems and we get a lot of snow. But we do prefer studded tires for icey roads.

Durable tires!

We do a lot of traveling on the road as a family. I also uae my suv for work. Ibought the tires three years ago and the tread has really held up to the demands I have put on them. I feel I have really made an investment buy buying these tires as I have about 50, 000 miles on them and they still perform like they did when I first bought them. There is nothing negative to say about these tires and I will buy them again in the future. Thanks Michelin!!!

These tires are mounted ...

These tires are mounted on a 12 passenger Van. They are performing up to my expectations with regard to wear and comfort. I have used them in wet, dry and Icy conditions. In fact, I believe the tread design ( sipes into the tread pattern) were a big part in slowing the Van down when we hit some black Ice. We were on our way back from a Thanksgiving trip 2006, to Astoria, Oregon. While pulling our 7500 lb travel trailer up over highway 26 we encountered black Ice just as we crested a hill. Once we started down, the Van began to slide. I used the brakes very cautiously and was able to get stopped. These tires work really well.

I drive with confidence

I replaced the tires on my Roadtrek 200 Motor home. I couldn't believe the difference in the handling, how it held the road. They made the ride much smoother with less rattle in the vehicle. I own 5 vehicles and in the future will use Michelin on all of them. I can drive with confidence!

Great Tires

I have these tires on my truck, 2009 F-150, and when it came time to get tires for my wife's SUV, 2007 Trailblazer SS, these were top on my list. Since installing them on the vehicle I am more pleased with them than I am on my truck. They are a lot quieter than the tires they were replacing, and the ride is much improved as well. I have been very happy with the quality and value of Michelin products.
