I just ordered a set of 275-55-R20 Defender LTX M/S2's to replace my older LTX2's and found that they still use a bar code sticker molded into the bead. On my old set of M/S2's this sticker caused a severe leak on three of my four wheels. This sticker caused moisture to collect between the rim and sticker and eventually corroded the aluminum rim. I had to dismount all four tires, remove the corrosion from the rim and remount with bead sealer after removing the sticker and re balance. Fortunately I was able to do all this myself as I have a friend that has the proper equipment to do it. Otherwise I would have to pay for it. Why put this sticker in this location???

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I ordered these for my suv and they are a great fit. Nice smooth ride and traction. These are great weather resistant tread and nice fit assures me when driving there will be less to worry about with these solid tires.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love them, this brand is well known for having excellent quality and for so many years having remained the best tires of all time. I have a company with 2 trucks and for 10 years I have only used Michelin tires, in their facilities they have the best customer service, they are fast and thorough with every detail. I put these Defenders on my Thoe, I love the stability it provides to my vehicle and the durability. I take a lot of family trips, and I am in all climates with my car, these tires are all I need, I know I will be safe with them. Excellent quality-price. Having Michelin tires will be your best decision. 100% recommended

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I highly recommend these Michelin tires. In January 2024, I replaced tires on my GMC Sierra 1500 with the Michelin Defender tires. I could tell a difference right away. My truck rides smoother, is much quieter, and handles so much better. An added bonus is my improved gas mileage. I will never buy another brand of tires again!

My truck was sold new with Bridgestone tires. I couldn't wait to get them off and get my Michelin Defenders put on. The ride is noticeably better. I'm a lifetime Michelin tire owner on all of my trucks. When I was 21 years old, I had a sidewall blowout with another brand of tires and was seriously injured. Ever since I've been using Michelin or Goodyear tires only. I prefer Michelins for my trucks, but Goodyear is equivalent in my estimation for passenger cars. The noise is less with Michelins and seem to last longer. Handling and traction are good.

I just bought my second set of these. Pros: Smooth, quiet ride, tread wear was even but not premature Cons: From a stop to start acceleration on wet roads sometimes the rear tires spin, gravel trapping by the tires is annoying upon driving at higher speeds on highways and hearing rocks pelt the wheel wells.

Tires are very quiet and smooth running. Any increase or decrease in mileage is yet to be determined. I bought these for extra load rating for towing a 5th wheel trailer. I am at this time experiencing death wobble and I am hoping the tires are not a contributing factor as I only have 19,000 miles on the truck.

ALWAYS PREFER MICHELIN TIRES, TRADED OEM'S OUT AND NOW I HAVE REAL ROUND TIRES. VERY SMOOTH AND ENJOY THE IMPROVED HANDLING. A BIT HARD ON ROUGH ROADS BUT SMOOTH AS CAN BE ON THE GOOD ONES. LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HOW THEY HANDLE AN UPCOMING ROAD TRIP THROUGH VARIES CONDITIONS.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My mom swears by these tires and now I know why! They have the best smooth, quiet ride and give my car great traction. Big improvement over original factory tires. They seem to last longer too in her experience. I’m still new so time will tell for my set. It’s the only brand and line she’s been using for years on multiple cars

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was in the market for new tires and had been comparing different brands and styles. The Michelin Defender had everything I was looking for in a set of new wheels. The tires are very well made, strong and sturdy and most importantly, they make me feel safe on the road. These tires provide a smooth ride on the highway and are rugged enough for our back country roads. The tread wear life is impressive and I feel for the life and wear and tear of these tires, that they are a good investment. I like the deep tread pattern and noticed during the rainstorm that the tires gripped the road and they are weather proofed very well. I felt safe during all of my recent commutes.
