We have been experiencing very poor driving conditions, however, our Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires have been excellent in assisting with our driving safety. Everyone should drive according to the conditions no matter what type of tires your car has on it. Our Michelin's are excellent in every way. Our Lexus RX350 has better control since we had our Michelin's put on. We simply feel safer.

On the drive home from the shop I could tell these are my favorite all season tires I have ever owned. There are quieter than I had hoped for, but I was surprised how much smoother the drive was, something I had not noticed in similar range tires that I have owned. The last time I felt the tires made a big difference was we with X-Ice tires.

I drive a Chevrolet Silverado 3500 Dually... 6 Tires... I am past the guaranteed 50,000 miles and will surpass the 70,000 miles guaranteed for normal passenger cars(smaller vehicles). I found excellent traction in almost all situations, and perfect tread wear(rotated every oil change). Buy these tires!

Michelin devotee for 30 years. Put these on my F250 truck to replace previous LTX/MS tires since these were no longer available and the new Defender line was touted as soooo much better. Immediately these tires shook my vehicle as though they were unbalanced. I had them rechecked for and they were properly balanced. Secondly, these tires also vibrate on paved roads as if they were knobby style tires or if the lug nuts were loose. They make it seem as though something is wrong with my vehicle.I hate these tires and now I'm stuck with them. I have less than 1000 miles on them.Not up to the quality of what Michelin has previously stood for.

Defender LTX M/S are outstanding*. Ride, comfort, grip, handling & braking are outstanding. Noise reduced exponentially. Other Michelins & brands may start out this strongly but based on previous experience & research, these Defender LTX M/S tires will** surpass all, certainly most all others. Name a better tire? I'll buy it! *More driving time of course, in various weather and road conditions, and at varying or higher speeds for longer duration is needed to establish baseline to test limits, etc. **Defender research shows some manufacturing problems Michelin must resolve. I want & expect less risk, more certainty. Michelin can do it!

Have had these tires on my car since 2008 (180,000 Kim's later ) I can not where them out, normal maintenance and rotation, no flats but starting to crack a little on sides so will have to buy new ones soon. Well worth every cent and great for winter and summer, no need to get winter tires with these.

Very smooth, and quiet on all surfaces. Good traction cornering in the rain.

Extremely smooth. quiet and great rolling resistance. they coast beautifully.

Very happy with the ride compared to previous manufacturers tires.

I will give traction, durability, performance, handling and noise all 5 stars.
