I have been a fan of these tires for many years. I have had 4 different vehicles over the last 20 years and put Michelin tires on each one. These tires I have had on my last 2 pickup trucks. They handle great. They last longer. They go and most of all stop. On wet rainy roads. Best Tires ever

My wife bought her 2014 Ford Edge new....it now has 140,000 miles on it....and has the original Michelin Latitude tires on it....just goes to show that proper rotation intervals and weekly tire pressure checks help....will be the tire we replace with....outstanding.

Bought in the winter in Canada. Handled the snow and ice with ease. Little bit of slipping here and there but acted like a regular winter tire. I was really impressed. Very quiet and responsive. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for. Highly recommend. They look sharpe as well and the side wall always stays black.

Michelin has never let me down after 55 years of buying their tires. I purchased the Defender LTX M/S2 tires for my 1500 series pickup truck because I wanted good traction on wet slippery roads when I travel. These tires are quiet and the sidewalls are firm enough to help my truck stay level in curves. They blend perfectly with my air-ride suspension. I feel safe with these tires.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Michelin tires are top notch and really go the extra mile. Long lasting with great traction. Delivered excellent grip for shorter braking distance on wet roads. Black side walls, overall well made and good quality long lasting tires!

I've been generally pleased with the performance of these tires—they handle well in both wet and dry conditions, provide a quiet and comfortable ride, and inspire confidence on the road. However, I was disappointed with the tread life. Despite careful and consistent driving, my set needed replacement at around 37,000 miles, well short of the advertised 60,000-mile expectation. Since these came as OEM equipment on my vehicle, there was unfortunately no warranty support available. Overall, great performance, but potential buyers should be aware of the faster-than-expected tread wear.

I had the passenger Defenders on three SUVs and I couldn't have been happier with them. They did well in all conditions and lasted forever. I put the Defender LTX on my 2023 Tundra, replacing Nitto Ridge Grapplers that were ridiculous on the highway over any distance, and the Defender LTX exhibit higher than expected levels of noise and poor performance on wet roads. Price wasn't really a consideration if I got great tires, but these have been a disappointment.

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???

I now have approx. 40,000 miles on a set of these. They are in all respects very good tires. The wear seems to be as expected, they are great on wet highways and relatively quiet although as all Michelins do, they seem to be getting noisier as they wear. What I don't like is they are as hard as rocks and with every pothole or manhole it feels like the front of the truck is getting torn off. I had the Primacy's prior to these and for us, they were a much better tire. I don't do a lot of heavy hauling and would prefer the softer ride. I think I'll be going back to the Primacy in the future.

Purchased these Defender LTX M/S2 little over a year ago, for my 2015 Chevy Silverado with 65K miles on the odometer. I have experienced all facets of weather conditions with these tires. Tires ride good for HIGHWAY applications. Tires ride good in the rain, but that is where it ends. Tires are very sloppy in the any amount of snow on the road. The tires are inflated to 35-psi, per Manufacture recommendations. The RIDE QUALITY is absolutely HORRIBLE. The tires ride so HARD that you feel EVERY bump and crevice in the road. Great on the HIGHWAY, but that's it. I have been purchasing Michelin products for 40-years and these are the worse I have ever had. I am very meticulous about products I purchase for my vehicles... safety and handling are always in the forefront. BUT RIDE QUALITY suffers greatly for these tires. Never had to give up on ride quality before, WHY NOW? Now my vehicles has rattles I've never had before! Michelin Team, please help!
