My Third Set, My Second Set Saved My Life

I heard the name "Michelin Man" decades ago. My first introduction to car safety came from seeing a blowout at high speed. A man who rebuilt a big-block in my Mustang explained that the best tires are Michelin. Decades later, a microburst dropped a record 19 inches of rain per hour on I-45. I could see the rooster tail of the water my tires pumped out of the way as I moved forward. Countless vehicles around me went off the road. Many were hurt, two died, and I was shaken. And the ride is quieter, more comfortable, and always gets me where I am going. So, yeah, you can call me a Michelin Man!

The best Tire ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are thick, robust and resistant tires...! Even though I just installed them and can't give you mileage or longevity yet, I am impressed with these tires. I have used them for 1 month and we have seen heavy rain, no hydroplaning, snow and ice storms, no slippage and mainly ground grip on hilly descents. They have behaved quite well in the elements. They also run very smooth and quiet, and I feel like my vehicle handles quite well with these tires. I drive frequently so it's only been 1 month but I've already put about 1000 miles on them and have no complaints. I'll add it to my review when I've gotten a little more use out of them and update their performance at that time. So far, so good. If you are looking for a good set, I tell you not to be indecisive, play it safe with Michelin tires, buy these. I am convinced that these tires will prove their worth for a long time... and I will buy again if/when necessary...! There are many tires, many cheaper, but the quality and price of a good tire, you can't go wrong.

Smooth Quiet & Responsive

2018 4Runner do not buy these tires if you are looking for curb appeal. These tires are as plain jane, no cool factor or attitude at all. But they are quiet, smooth & responsive. I have driven in mud snow rain, no problem. I would say overall this tire checks 99.9% of what you want out of a tire. The toyota avalon of tires lol not pretty buy super solid

Confidence inspiring

These are not winter tires, these are not meant to replace winter tires BUT if you are like me and rock all seasons all year long- these are the tires you're looking for. This past winter (in a pickup truck) I was able to slowly crawl down a slippery mountain road, I passed by over a dozen cars pulled over, 3 accidents, and watched someone lose control and graze the guardrail. I drove slowly and with extreme caution- but these tires never slipped once.

Not happy

Not happy with these tires way too much weight they use 5 1/2 half ounces or more. Took it back they just moved them from the inside. The inside rim truck has a vibration now it didn't help by moving the weights to a different place from the inside rim to the outside would not recommend this tire vibration of seats are shaking was not like this before about the tires had original tires bought the truck new Has never been wrecked. Wheels are not bent just poor quality tire they're telling me this is normal.

Not worth the money

Was excited to try out some Michelin tires on my Yukon. Went for an oil change and a tire rotation other day, mechanic told me he couldn't rotate them because they were completely wore out!!! And it would not pass MVI!!! I went with the defenders because it had the best rating, unfortunately for the amount of money I paid I got half the life span out of them compared to the Bridgestone I had on it before, sometimes the reviews get it wrong, definitely did in my case, they were wore out after a year with next to no mileage and would not keep air.

When they have a michelin brand why would you go anywhere else.

bought the tires as a replacement for my 2019 Toyota? Tundra, 4 wheel drive tires are fantastic in the snow. Tires are very smooth. I used a decimal meter to compare the noise level with the previous set of tires. I had and they are quiet as a mouse plan to enjoy these tires for the next eighty thousand miles

One heck of a fantastic tire!

Mitch defender LTX MS2 A 75000 mile warranty. WOW!! The tread dept is totally awesome....The old bias ply L series tire is where you might come close to this tread depth. Instantly noticed a smoother ride and a lot more stability. Railroad tracks were lots better. Stopping distance is much shorter than with my previous tires.
