Great Tires, Handled really well when I was plowing snow. Theyre ok in muddy conditions. The only problem is theyre rock slingers. Its constantly throwing rocks and you can hear them from inside the cab when they hit the body. If you go a lot to places where its dirt roads get another pair of tires

I’ve used Michelin tires for probably 40 years. I have never had any problems with them. I’m getting old now and my last set of tires aged out and still had more than half of the tread left. Bought a new complete set of the same type of (Michelin Defenders) tires. I suspect these will be my last set before I have to turn in my drivers license as I will be very close to 90 years old by then.

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.

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 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 is a nice truck tire, but it is a truck tire. I can feel every bump and seam on the highway. It's noisy and unrefined, so I suppose this is a truck tire. I puchased a set for a 2018 Lincoln Navigator and the tires removed the luxury aspect of the vehicle. Thanks to Michelin's ride satisfaction promise, I was able to exchange the Defender LTX M/S2 for a set of CrossClimate2 SUV tires. The ride quality and noise is like night and day. Moving from a Highway All-Season (LTX) to a Grand Touring AS (CrossClimate) was the answer. I would not buy the LTX again for a luxury vehicle.

Not an upgrade for the defender ltx ms. I am very disappointed and feel I wasted money. The outer lugs are closed now which changes their capabilities. The compound doesnt hold as well in water and snow/ice. Maybe you will get more miles and on dry pavement they are decent but that isn't what these tires are supposed to be...and at such a price. I won't purchase these again and will find another brand for next tires. I bought online because I had to finance and trusted michelin to not mess up a great tire...these should have a different name...they do not act like ltx ms....not at all. Very disappointed.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 tires are great, they are really nice premium tires. They make my ride drive so much smoother. They handle really well in many conditions but for me it rains a lot where I live so they especially perform well when its wet. Dry weather conditions the performance is also amazing. I definitely feel like these tires are made to last, whether you are daily commuter or driving long distance, I really feel like these tires excel on the road and are very quiet tires when driving. When turning they are more supportive in maintaining control. They are superior quality tires and I'm super happy with this brand of tires on my SUV. I would highly recommend these tires they are a definite must have on your truck or SUV.

I just had these tires and they have excellent ride quality. I switched from Bridgestone Dueler HL tires which only lasted about 32k miles, but they rode very well. With the heft and XL rating of the Michelin tires I was worried that they would ride harder, but those fears were quickly proven wrong. Also, my first time driving on these tires was in the rain and the tires were excellent and confidence inspiring. I love that these also come with an extra 2/32 of tread compared to the standard LTX tire. I purchased the 275/55/r20 113T size tire.

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.
