Best light truck general purpose tire available

I have had 5+ sets of these on 2 different suburbans, 1) f150 std cab longbox, 1) Chevrolet dually cab-chassis with dump and snow-plow, and now on my '14 Superduty Kingranch. If my continued patronage of this specific tire doesn't speak volumes, I don't know what..I am in Wisconsin, and snow and ice traction are important. These tires are excellent in snow and ice, without quick wear like a winter tire 80k/set. Ride comfort is outstanding. I replaced the Michelin AT tires with these on the superduty, and they are 10 times better for traction and comfort. If you are wondering if these tires are worth the extra money, they absolutely are!

I have had 2 sets of ...

I have had 2 sets of Michelin LTX M/S tires, size P215/70R15 on my 2000 GMC Safari RWD van. The first set lasted more than 60,000 miles, and I was so pleased with the ride quality, even wear, traction under all conditions, and handling characteristics that I replaced them with an identical set when the tread wore to about 4/32 and the second set is just as good as the first. The van handles snow, icy roads, and rain with ease, and the vehicle rides smoother than with the original equipment Uniroyal Tiger Paws. These tires can be a little bit noisy on some types of concrete (they sing a little) but this is an uncommon occurrence, and overall they ride smooth, quiet, and secure. I will buy another set without question when the time comes. Neither the Safari or the tires show any signs of wearing out. I strongly recommend these tires for any light truck use, The outlined white letters add a touch of sportiness and set off the polished aluminum wheels nicely.

Wonderful tires

These tires are on my 3/4 ton pickup, they have wonderful traction when I am off road and when I am traveling through snow and rain. These are very long lasting tires which also have a smooth ride with minimal road noise. I will be purchasing Michelin similar tires to replace these tires in a few years.

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.

Smooth Sailing

These are my first Michelins and I'm glad that I decided to make the investment. I live in New England and we received the obligatory late spring snow storm so I had the opportunity to test these tired in slippery conditions and they performed beautifully. I suddenly felt glued to the road regardless of the driving conditions. I also noticed an immediate difference in the quiet comfortable ride I had been missing from my vehicle all along. I would definitely recommend spending a little extra for these tires. They have changed my opinion on how much tires can make a difference in your ride.

Amazing snow grip!

Two years ago after 32 inch snowfall I was the only one on the road besides the plow trucks. The day before, on my way home from work, the snow was coming down hard and I was headed for a 250 foot elevation hill climb. About halfway up, and around the bend, cars were in the ditch and blocking the road. I had to come to a complete stop on the steep incline. Whew, I didn't slide back down the hill. I put it in four-wheel-drive low expecting some slippage as I started moving again. Surprisingly no slippage whatsoever! I slalomed around the cars and pulled a couple out of the ditch and one up the hill to safety. Without a doubt I would purchase Michelin mud and snow tires again for my four-wheel-drive vehicle.

Safe, Quiet Tire

I have 45K miles on these tires and they are great tires. They ride quite and I feel safe with them in bad weather. They have been thru heavy rain, snow, ice and handle well. The tread wear is even and I keep tabs on the tire pressure. I know I need to replace soon and will probably get the same ones. Hoping the prices come down...

Absolutely Love These Tires!

Everything dealer told me they would be. Ride better than Lattitude Tours that were original, got 65k wear out of those, however these ride great, way better, very noticeable and smoother, quieter, ride like a dream! No complaints, my 5th or 6th pair of new Michelins, these are brand new line, they rock! Feel great about my decision, very happy.

Excellent Truck tire

This is the second set of these tires I have purchased for my 2002 Chevy Silverado. These tire have out performed any other tire I have used in the past. They wear very well, provide a smooth and quiet ride and perform quit well in the rain and snowy climate of northeast Ohio. I make it a point that I only purchase Michelin tires as replacement tires for all my vehicles. I highly recommend these tires to anybody. If your on the bubble about a purchase try these you will not be disappointed.

Second set would'nt buy anything else

This is the second set of these tires on my SUV. the first set outlasted mileage rating for the tires. So far this set is looking like they will do the same. With scheduled reatation and balance these tires perform great and the ride is unmatched. I am a michelin man 100%. You will never buy anything other than michelin once you ride on a set.
