Chevrolet put these on when two sets of the tires that came on the vehicle when new failed at 7000 miles. Have had them on now for nearly 97,000 miles just ordered another set for my Chevrolet High Country Silverado. Ride is superior to any make of tire I've had, durability is unsurpassed as you can see by the milage and handeling is great, especially on wet roads, don't know if you can get them to hydroplane in wet conditions. They lack a little in snow and ice but preform well if you just slow down like you should do anyway! Had only 1 flat in all the miles driven. Great security for my wife and I! Keep up the good work Michelin!!!

I purchased 4 tires in March 2009 and it is now August 2013...almost 4 1/2 years ago. My tires still look new. I have gone almost 55,000 miles and they are still good tires. The treads are still good. I have always bought Michelin. They are the best tires for the money.

I have been buying LTX M/S versions since the early 1990s and have them on most vehicles I own. Just purchased a set today for my Explorer and noticed the difference right away from the Master Craft that were on there when I bought the truck a couple of months ago.

I was doing an oil change on my 2004 Tundra and asked my wife to look at the previous receipt for the last set of these same tires. She said 80,000 miles and ten years ago. although the tread was still good, I had noticed some steering wheel wabble at low speed and a slight pull to the left and had two shops check the alignment on my 120K miles Tundra. They both said your alignment is fine, so I drove it for a year or so trying rotation without a cure. I told her "These tires are good, but Old and hard". I put on this fresh set and Wala! no more vibration and no pull. Man this thing rides like the Tundra should. I know these tires are $$ but worth it to me. By the way I got 100,000 miles on the same Michelin Defenders on my Honda CRV.

I purchased the Defenders to replace a set of Wrangler tires that still had a lot of tread left. Before purchasing the new tires the wheels would spin if there was any moisture on the road. The improvement has been amazing. This is for a 2009 Ford Ranger that is used in the city (not off road) as a second vehicle to often move lumber and/or top soil and yard waste.

I purchased the tire set for a 2007 tundra, got about 5 years and 23000 miles and there is a decent amount of cracking and tread wear (enough to replace them). Far from the 70000 mile warranty. They were regularly rotated and taken care of, expected more from a higher priced and rated tire.

I have the Michelin LTX M/S on my 2008 Ford F150 and I couldn't be happier. I only have a 2wd but in the snow they grip great even on some pretty bad on and off ramps from the freeway. When its wet I never feel like I am hydroplaning and when it's nice out they grip great when you want to nail it! These tires are worth the $.

Best tire ever made for large vehicles that primarily drive on the street. As a small business owner with service vehicles we have purchased a lot of these tires. Why did I rate them a three? Because Michelin cares more about longevity than safety. This goes for all of their truck tires. These tires are the best tires on the road for the first 45,000 miles of tread life and then the rubber compound gets harder and harder as they continue to wear making them so slippery that they easily hydroplane and barely get a good grip on some hard dry surfaces. Do yourself a favor and consider them a 50,000 mile tire. I noticed they are fading these out for the Platinum Edition with a high mileage rating. I'll probably try them soon but I'm sure it's the same result.

I've driven on Michelin tires since the 70's and have been very happy with all of them. Great styling and tread wear. The current set on my '07 Silverado have 27,500 miles on them and you can barely tell they're used. ( Of course, regular rotation helps ) They are very quiet on the road at any speed. The handling of a full size truck is marginal at best, but these tires can handle anything I can throw at them. I've only been in one emergency braking situation with this truck/tire combination which required hard braking and a quick turn and these tires handled it like a champ. In almost 35 years of owning Michelins, I've never had a manufacture's flaw or any such problem and this current set looks like they will be just as trouble free. I won't ride on anything else but Michelins.

This is the 31 x 10.50 R15 LT LTX M/S They were expensive and I really liked them at first. But the Older they got.. The noisier they got. They really started to make much noise. I know this is an oversized tire.. Fuel efficiency dropped about 4-6 mpg.
