With proper rotation and ...

With proper rotation and inflation every 5000 miles, I have reached 80,000 miles on a set. I should have replaced at 75,000 miles just for safety. I live on a gravel road and these tires do not have rubber pieces chunking out from tires as another brand of tire I had on when I purchased this truck did. When I called that manufacturer about that set I was told not to drive on gravel roads. The Michelin tire is the most durable and safest tire I have ever used. I use them mostly for on road driving and I feel that this is the only light truck tire worth the money. I love the way they my truck handles when I have a set of Michelins on and I can count on at least 65,000 miles on a set in which that is what I have on them now and they still have about 10,000 miles left. This tire is a very quiet tire as far as road noise is concerned. I recommend nothing but Michelin tires for light trucks.

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.

I am on my 2nd set of LTX MS tires now with over 140,000 miles with 60% tread currentlt on my 2005 GMC Sierra. I can't believe I get 80,000 miles on a set of tires! I prefer the smooth ride of the GMC over the Mercedes, in fact I almost always drive the GMC. Need;ess to say, I am sold on Michelin!

I have loaded over twice the recommended capasity in my 2500 ram on numerious occassions. When I changed out the first factory set of Michelin's, they had over 85,000 miles with out a problem. My second set suffered the same treatment and were changed out when the odometer hit 180,000, without a dought these are best set of tires I've ever owned,

My only tires

Greeting, we purchase an 1998 F150 (new) it had its dealer tires, lasted about 50K mi. We decided.to go with Micheline tires, and never look back, the truck has 240k mi. and I'm about to get another set of them in the next 6 mo. There is our expedition (2003) it was used when we got it, with about 10K mi. Same there, Michelin's all around, it has 199k mi.

I'd most likely buy this tire next time

I purchased this tire for road/highway use and bought based on tread design and depth. I was looking for traction on wet paved roads (especially when starting and turning uphill while starting) in Central Texas for my light rear ended, 98, Dodge Dakota P/U 4x4 with 5.2L. I keep 200 pounds of sand in the truck bed to aid in traction. This tire did not meet my desires. However, I have had 3 different brands over the 7 years I have owned the P/U and this tire has performed the best.

103,000 miles and counting

This tire came standard with my new Ford Econoline van in 2006, and are still serving well at 103,000 miles. I may replace them before winter, but there is still good tread remaining, and the sidewalls look like new! They are quiet, reliable, and good looking.

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.

Great Tire

This tire was highly rated in all the research I did, and it hasn't disappointed. I've had these about 9 months and in all weather conditions they've provided excellent traction, while wearing well. That's a huge change from the stock tires that came with my Highlander, which wore out in 40,000 miles. Sure, the better tread is a little louder, and it cut a mile or two off my gas mileage, but I'm glad I bought the LTX tires and will be looking at Michelins for my wife's car next.

I have a 2002 Dodge Ram 2500 club cab and still have the original tires on it. I have been rotating them as well as replacing them for winter driving with a more aggressive winter tire. I am truly impressed with the tread wear as it seems I will have many more years to keep these tires for my truck. I have 113,500 miles on my truck with approx. 75,000 on these tires. I am also impressed that there are no signs of weathering or checking in the sidewalls. Great job on the compounds used and or the quality of the rubber.
