I have owned multiple sets of Michelin LTX tires on my trucks through out the years and have always had a great service from them.. until now with the LTX Defender tires. I bought these tires to replace a very worn set of OEM BF Goodrich tires that came on my truck. After 3 separate tire shops attempts at balancing the tires I am still left with a very significant amount of vibration at speeds over 50 mph. Very disappointing to say the least!

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!

Bought new Michelin 18” Defender LTX M/S2 tires for a Ford F250 to replace Michelins that had come with the truck. My old tires were smooth as silk and I actually got more miles from them than the warranty. However, the new tires vibrated badly, so I had them rebalanced twice, with no improvement. Michelin replaced the tires under warranty, but the new tires also vibrate badly. I took them to another shop that had a road force balancer and paid out of my own pocket to have them rebalanced again. There was some improvement, but there's still a significant amount of vibration. I'm very disappointed in these tires.

My OEM tires on my Toyota Highlander still had about another 5,000 or so miles on them but as we were about to go on a road trip I thought it would be a good time to buy new and I'm glad I did. I went with the Michelins because I know that I can expect great performance and longevity. We drove from Florida to North Carolina in October, drove the Blue Ridge Parkway and beyond, totaling 2,500 miles. The Highlander handles great on the twists and turns of the parkway. One difference I noted compared to the old tires was that I felt we were part of the road rather than riding on top of it. The grip and feedback were fantastic. The only negative maybe was that I thought they were just a little high priced for tires made in Mexico but still, I was very happy with my purchase.

Replaced OEM Good Years on my 2021 Ram 1500 Crew Cab. The Defender LTX MS tires are awesome! Smooth ride and soaKs up bumps like a champ. Great traction I'd dry and wet. When new tHere was a little more tire squirm in turns compared to good years but very minor. The ride qUality improvement makes truck feel like luxury car. Also seeing improvement in mpg. Jumped from average of 26 MPG to 27 to 28 mpg on same route.

When we purchased our new 2011 GMC Yukon we insisted and the dealer complied with our wish to replace the factory tires with Michelins. We just replaced the originals with slightly over 70,000 miles and could not have been more pleased with tires that were still quiet with a good ride and tread depth that would pass inspection. We chose to replace them at this time because we don't like running a tire that is getting close to minimum tread depth. This opinion is based on our driving on interstates at high speeds and in mountain terrain. We have years of experience using Michelins and would not consider another brand.

I have a 2013 Jeep Wrangler that seemed to wander all over the road and was noisy. We considered moving up to a newer model. With new Michelin's its like a newer Jeep - much tighter and quiet. You wouldn't think tires could make such a difference!

I just had 4 new Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires installed on my 2004 Suburban. Just driving home from the service shop felt like I was driving a new vehicle. The ride was smoother, quieter, and more responsive. I had researched for weeks in advance to making the decision to go with Michelin and I am very glad I did. I feel Michelin did their homework with this tire design and definitely got it right.

These tires have a definite rumble at speeds over 70 mph, I have had the tires rebalanced 2Xs and frontend alignment, and new brakes, still a problem, when I put my 3 year old snow tires back on, the rumble is gone and much smoother ride than the Michelin brand

I recently purchaced a 2017 Chevy Colorado. The tires that came on it were possibly ok can't really evaluate them as I replace them with the Michelins promptly after purchasing the truck. The reason I replaced the original tires was due to previously having LTX tires on my previous truck that lasted 11years with no problems, a smooth and quiet ride and excellent performance. I am very happy with your products and will continue to purchase them. Bill Kashmark
