I have used these tires (the original not the MS2) on 2 s10 pickups, 2 s10 blazers, 2 Mitsubishi Monteros and currently have them on my 05 Tahoe---all these were great!! BUT the new MS2 has a very harsh ride due to being XL rated. Also the MS2 does not have secondary sipes on the lower tread supports which give extra wet traction when the tread wears down thus giving longer tire life. The driving performance is still excellent but harsh and back jarring whether at 35psi or 40pse. When the pressure is lowered so is your gas mileage. I always ran the old MS at 40psi with no complaints.

We have been very disappointed in this set of Michelins. We have always been loyal Michelin customers. I have them on both our vehicles and on our previous cars as well. I bought a new set to replace the Michelins that finally wore out after over 60,000 miles. This new set will not balance. The dealer replaced two of them stating the sidewalls were out of spec. They still have a vibration between 40-50 miles per hour. Very disappointed and actually thinking about buying another brand for the first time in 15 years.

These tires are not wearing like they should. They are needing to be replaced soon. After 10000 km they showed wear. Now have 37500 kms on them. I am a senior driver that does only highway driving. The tires were bought on Dec. 14/15. Rotated every 9 months. Also can you explain to me what MS2 is? Tires were recommended by our dealer for use as a good all round seasonal tire. would not recommend to buy again.

Bought these tires based on a review in Consumer Reports for my 2005 pickup. Though I have less than 7500 miles on them, I can say that they are very limitedly influenced by extreme temperature swings and extremes, consistently holding their pressure. Do not get the "flat spot" thump of other tires if vehicle not driven for 2 or 3 days. Grip the road well and do not squeal when cornering at high speeds. Well worth what I paid for them.

I have used the LTX M/S tires on my trucks for years. They were great in the Ohio snow and the rain as well. I recently purchased an 09 Silverado 1500 that came to me with tires that weren't Michelin. and those tires were horrible. Visited a local Michelin Dealer to obtain LTX M/S for this truck as I've been very pleased with them in the past. I was informed the LTX M/S is no longer available, that I would have to go with the LTX M/S 2. I went ahead and ordered the LTX M/S 2 and had them installed recently. Haven't yet had the experience of driving them in the snow, though I have little doubt they will be fine. Driven in rain and have the usual confidence I've experienced with the previous LTX M/S. The problem is as follows; I can't drive one mile on any road without hearing a stone strike the underside of my truck. Today is the 5th of August. It's not as though there are snow plows depositing stones on the road as they plow the shoulder. The tires I purchased are P265/65R18 112T, LTX M/S2 BW. I don't know if this is an issue related to only the size I purchased or if it's across the board. What I do know is I can't afford to purchase another brand tire this soon to alleviate the stone issue, so I guess I just turn up the radio and drive on. I will pose a question to the Customer Care Team; Why did you mothball the LTX M/S?

The best tire that we have ever bought for our fleet vehicles. My F-150 Platinum has gotten 100,000 miles plus on each of the last 2 sets. The original tires lasted less than 45,000 miles. Installing another set today. If you need tires, these are the ones!

I have used other tires in my life,but i found that michelin tires are by far the best tire out there.I am an ASE Master Tech with over 30 years of experience and i have seen all types and brands of tires and michelin tire has the least amount of vibration and the best tread wear compaired to other brands.The tire also doesn't dry rot over time.Thanks

My chevrolet 2500HD came with 245 75 r16 I replaced them with ltx ms2 235 85 r16. I could not be more pleased. I get on I-5 at hiway 269 going north set the cruise at 70 (the speed limit) and for the next 200 miles it is as smooth as glass the only thing I feel is missing chunks of asphalt. I gained better than 10% in mileage because of a narrower tire (less friction) and a larger diameter tire (fewer revolutions per mile). my truck is heavy I have a utility box with rack on it and tools.

I have had LTX tires on my trucks because of their construction site performance and that they do not howl at you on the freeway. The improvement from the LTX to this M/S2 is noticeable, especially in the rain. I was not expecting this much of an improvement on a tire that i used for years, glad to see your research development pay off for my excitement.

The new LTX MS/2 tires proved to be a significant upgrade for my Lexus RX300. Road noise is loader than touring tires I could have chosen, but good traction in on and off road conditions was important for my driving. Very pleased with the results. I would purchase these tires again.
