I plced these tires on my Yukon at 60,355 miles on it and currently have 147,500 miles on my vehicle. The LTX M/S has given me over 87 thousand miles (mostly Interstate) of safe, comfortable and worry free driving. Using the quarter test, I can barely see the top of George's head. I'm told I still have another 10,000 miles, or so, and will be replacing my existing tires with a new set of Michelins.

Longest Lasting tire

Best tires I ever had on a large truck/suv. Did so good on my Dodge Durango for 80,000 miles, I sold it with them still on it & bought a set for my Chevrolet Tahoe... only 50,000 miles on them but still going strong. Reliable, never flat & very minimal wear.

Ultra Disappointed

I bought 3 sets of the previous generation version of these tires and was so happy. I couldn't wait to put the updated version on my Suburban. And then I did. Roughest and loudest tires I have ever owned-and I have had aggressive all-terrain tires on this same SUV. When I get close to 70 mph or faster, these tires are unbelievably loud. For the most expensive (or certainly one of) all-season tires you can buy, this is unacceptable. Thought I would just continue buying the best Michelin tires available every time I needed tires. I think that just changed.

Everything I know ...

Everything I know technically about tires you couldn't fill a thimble with. So I will tell you what is important to me. The two things that are most important to me are safety and dependability which I continually get from Michelin tires. I think I echo the sentiment of most women. Thank you for this opportunity to say thank you to all of your staff. Kathy

they have lasted over 80k miles and are still on my chevy truck, i know they need replaced before the snow gets here, but they still are working great. my son just got a set for his s10 pick-up truck. Michelin are on all my cars and will continue to be!! they make the car/trucks ride smooth and with good traction in all wet/snow or dry roads

Should have known to always buy Michelin....

I have Michelins on 2 of 3 of my trucks. I decided to 'save a few bucks' and went with Bridgestones. I was not happy with the performance since day one. They lasted about 40k miles and were horrible. Two of them leaked and had to be pumped up weekly. I'm back on to Michelins and I won't stray 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

Not as good in the winter.

I have the Defender LTX M/S on a 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee, replacing LTX MS2 tires that I used for 45,000 miles. The car is driven mostly in Montana where we have a lot of slippery snow packed roads and some black ice. I now have 6,000 miles on the new tire, mostly winter driving so far. The tires handle similarly to the ones they replaced, good handling on dry pavement, noise is not an issue. My complaint is that they do not have as much traction on snow-packed / icy roads as the tires they replaced. I can feel slippage at times and places I've driven for years in several generations of Grand Cherokees. Tires seem hard in cold weather

Disappointed

I have been a Michelin fan for 30 years. Every vehicle I have runs on Michelin rubber. I bought a set of Defender LTX M/S for my 2019 Ridgeline and could not be more disappointed. The road noise from these tires was terrible. They whined like a monster truck. I ended up replacing them with a different set of tires from another company. Another customer at the same tire store had a similar experience with the same tire. I’m hoping this is just a one off bad batch of tires and not a loss of historically great quality.

Jets4474, thanks for taking the time to submit a review. We're sorry your experience with Defender LTX M/S was not a positive one. We hope that you will consider Michelin tires again in the future.

Tire Review

I bought these tires 2 months ago, seems good on dry and wet pavement. Waiting for the snow to fall and see how they perform. Tires ride nice and low to no road noise. I was really torn on what tires to buy for my Ford 150 Super Crew 4x4, glad I bought them so far.
