Impressive!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am thoroughly impressed and pleased with these tires. This set of four Michelin Defender LTX Platinum exceeded my expectations thoroughly! They have great durability and tread life and provided a quiet ride on our truck. I like how they provided safety in winter when driving on ice and can also perform nicely when going off road for camping. Overall, a high quality set of tires that gives my ride a long tire life due to the heavy duty construction, I liked the how they handled very smoothly. and appreciate the longevity. I'd definitely recommend the Michelin Defender LTX Platinum!

Riding in Style and Silence

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, these tires are smooth. Like, Sunday-morning-drive-with-coffee-in-hand smooth. No more road roar or feeling like you're constantly wrestling the wheel. They grip the road like nobody's business, giving you the confidence to take that on-ramp a little faster, or maybe even navigate a surprise downpour without white-knuckling the wheel. You also have peace of mind from knowing you've got 70,000 miles of worry-free tread on these tires. Michelin Defender LTX Platinum's are smooth, grippy, stylish, and built to last. They're the perfect upgrade for any truck owner who wants the best of both worlds, on the road and in the looks department. Trust me, these are worth the cost. 2 thumbs up!

Does not deserve the Defender name

I would like to preface the review to a comparison of the former defenders I’ve used over the last 20 years. I personally believe Michelin failed with this tire. The economy, ride noise, ride and traction are lacking horribly compared to its predecessor, the MS2. I purchased these tires and had 2 of them go bad at 36,000 miles. They replaced all four and now I may be having the same issue with another tire. If the only advantage is a 70000 mile warranty, it was not worth it and I hope they bring the real defenders back.

Excellent Tires!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were looking for new tires for my husband's truck - I wanted them to be long-lasting and durable, he also wanted to make sure they looked great and felt great while driving. These tires met and exceeded all of these needs! Very impressed and would buy them again.

Most Amazing Tire Ever!

What has been truly amazing is the tire wear. Those wore like iron, great traction in any weather, and never had vibration issues. They are very smooth on the highway even though they are heavy duty . Otherwise these are the best all around truck tires you can buy.

Comfortable, quiet and great mileage.

Had just tried the BFG HD Terrain and returned them within 10 days to replace them with the LTX Platinum. What a difference. Totally quiet and comfortable with plenty of grip. They look great and am curious to see how they hold up. HD Terrain got 12.6 MPG These are 17.7 under same conditions. BFG K02 was 14.3.

Great on Cybertruck!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was provided these tires by Michelin to try on my 2024 Tesla Cybertruck AWD. I can say that after >5,000 miles I am very pleased. Both my wife and I feel that they are quieter and smoother than the OEM tires. TeslaFi.com statistics are showing that the efficiency is somewhat better than the OEM tires but perhaps less than the 'street' tires Telsa is supposedly coming out with later. Given that Teslas notoriously eat tires because of their weight and torque an owners propensity to 'launch' them, I am thrilled with the 70k mile warranty. When new, the tread depth was 14/32. After >5k miles, they appear to be about 12.5/32. I'm not sure if that is good or bad. I will leave that to the real tire guys.

Love them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tires are so great! They are the perfect fit and look so great on my vehicle. I haven’t had any issues at all. They feel so secure and safe especially when it’s wet out. I’m so glad that I got them!

Smooth sailing

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Michelin Defender are very smooth ride for long distance driving. I took them on a long distant drive vacationing and while on the road the ride was quite and traction was superb with the changing weather condition. Went through lot of rain and the handles was superior

Awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tires have been great so far. They so cool to look at they have the mud snow look but they are so quiet! No howling down the road. I also took them up to the snow and had no issues! They have great traction
