Disappointed

I put 4 Defender LTX on my new Colorado 3 years ago. They handle good, low noise and good traction even in snow. The problem is they are almost worn out with only 57000 km on them, around 3/32"/2.5mm tread remaining. They were properly rotated. Due to the high cost, I don't know if I will buy more of these tires. Very disappointing!

MICHELIN 20'S FOR YOUR HUNNY

Bought a Chevrolet Silverado Pickup Brand Spankin New. Bought the Work Truck Edition ( AKA / Striped not Equiped) with very Little to no options. Then I transformed that normal plain Jane Truck info a SHOW TRUCK. I looked info on the Chevrolet Website regarding the Tire Sizes on the other Truck models. And decided on there Sport Truck Option Pickup. And that was a 20" Model, so I proceeded to Find and purchase the Tire and Wheel combinanation that would look good. The tires were my biggest concern. There are so many differerent tire manufactures. But, I learned from my Father as a child. You never regret buying the best, You get what you páy for. As All my other Truck Enthusiests were only concerned about the choice of Wheels first and didnt care about the choice of tire manufactures. I was concerned about both equally. As I got the attutude about the price of the tires from my friends. I had to explain to them, Yes, MICHELINS are more at the beginning but they will outlast the cheaper inferior tire brands. So to recap.............. 6 years later, My Chevrolet Silverado Pickup has 110,000 miles, the MICHELINS LTX M/S are still the original tires on that I out on the Truck at 500.miles. I get them rotated every other Oil Change at the dealer. And the tires are only half way through on the thread. So, as my other Truck friends have gone through there 3 rd or 4 th set of tires. I am still on my original ser that I Bought at 500 miles and still havethe other half thread to go. Thats better than money in the Bank. Spend a Little more at the beginning, because in the end. That Little extra you spent in the beginning saved you a lot more in the end.

Reliable

I drive a Ford F250 diesel to Mexico and back each year pulling a 10,000 lb trailer so tires are important. I am into my third set of Defenders which realistically last about 75,000 km before tread wear begins to be an issue for long distance travel. Of the 15,000 km per year I drive the truck, half of it is pulling a trailer. I choose these tires not only because Ford recommends them but also because they give me very good fuel economy even pulling a trailer (17 L/km pulling and 8 L/km not pulling).

Get what you Pay For

Are there cheaper tires you can buy? Sure. But the smooth, quiet ride you get (especially in an SUV) with these tires, makes all the difference. My tire dealer actually tried to offer me a cheaper tire, but I've had the others - there is no comparison.

All Michelin are the BEST TIRES

I have had Michelin tires since 1978, I first purchased them to put on my "Pinto Wagon" yes I said Pinto, she was a 1976. The car did not come with radial tires, and these tires changed everything. I have been a loyal Michelin owner since. The ride is awesome, the wear is awesome, and I feel very safe knowing I have Michelin tires on my Vehicle............ I put different Michelins on my Explorer this time, but the LTX/MS were on my vehicle, I purchased them.....the Latitude is also great, only a 5,000 mi difference in warranty.........If you can do it, always use Michelin. Michelin has come a long way, the one years ago had softer side walls, and that was rough in NYC, having to parallel park............ Thank you Michelin !!!

Best tires for towing heavy loads

I have had several sets of these tires over 15 yrs of towing my boat following the Salmon runs of 2 Greatlakes. As the years gone by the boats have gotten bigger requiring heavier pickups to pull them. My current boat is 14,000 LBS and pull it with a single wheel GMC 3500 HD Diesel. I fish alot and towed alot, these tires are rock solid for the serious towing vehicle that tows more than a few miles to the ramp. They're not All-Terrain tires, All Terrains couldn't hold up to the heat and abuse these things are subjected to in my application. If you're looking for a long lasting heavy duty no worries tire for your investment this is it. If not get a set of nobby All -Terrains for the sound.

My tires are more than reliable!!!

I will only buy Michelin Tires. They are so reliable and Michelin tires beat the prices of many other competitors in their class. I do a lot of highway driving and I can honestly say, I have gone a lot farther than the recommended 50,000 miles and my ride is always smooth in my SUV. I do my rotations and get them checked regularly. Thank you for such an awesome product that I feel safe riding my family around on our many trips and day to day activities.

Not impressive

It's a month and I am not impressed. I switched from Michelin Premiere which were very nice. Essentially it's like switching from nice and smooth ride to one in which you feel every vibration and bump on steering wheel. 1. The tires are louder than expected based on reviews. 2. I keep feeling vibration, even at very low speeds. The person in tire place checked and says everything looks right. It started with tire change so it is definitely tires not anything else in car. So this is definitely not comfortable drive tire. Probably good for trucks, but not other cars.

LTX m/s

I have had these LTX tires now for 2 years have put about 40K miles on them and they have performed very well. They ride smooth and make my F150 drive more like a car than a truck. Everytime I take the truck in for a rotate and balance I get great reviews from the tech's about he even wear and the long term durability of these tires. I have been very happy with my purchase. Keep up the good work and Thanks MikeA
