I only have 6,000 miles ...

I only have 6,000 miles on these tires. Just did my first rotation. I am very pleased with which the tires have preformed so far. We do alot of highway driving. The tires are great at highway speeds they hold the road well and are great on wet an slipper roads. What really impressed me more was how the tires handle rocky gravelly bumpy roads. My Jeep GC rides over these roads with such ease. The handling is excellent with good steering control over the bumps and potholds and the interior ride is comfortably smooth considering that thiese are unpaved gravel roads. This is my first set of Michelin tires and I would buy these tires again.

Time will tell….

Long time Michelin fan. 2 months ago we had Defenders installed on our 2017 Ram 1500 and compared to the worn OEM tires, these are very quiet. One concern (or complaint) is that on gravel roads, they pick up and throw rocks… a lot more than any tire I’ve ever owned. I may have to swap these if I determine the rocks are causing damages.

I would definately buy these tires again

I now have over 75,000 miles on these tires and they're still in good shape. They are quiet and have never had any tire noise which seems to be more and more common these days. I will replace these tires when needed with the exact same ones and am certain I will have great service from them as well.

Michelin Makes the Best Tires Hands Down

I've been running Michelin LTX M/S on my '89 F150 for over 15 years now and have had zero problems with them. I just put on my third set and actually ran the last ones a bit too long. Even though they were severely sun damaged and had little tread left, I had no problems with them on the road regardless of running with a load, trailer, or empty. I wouldn't want to run any other brand of tire. You may be able to buy a cheaper tire, but there is no other tire that will give you this kind of performance and reliability. After working in a tire store for many years, I only want to buy Michelin products! I've seen too many issues with other brands to take a chance on saving a few bucks.

Best Michelin tire I've had yet!

I've logged 30,000 km so far on these tires. They are quiet and have remarkable traction and grip in snow and rain. I've had Michelin tires on all my vehicles for the past 40 years, except once when I tried another brand. I was sorry I did and changed back to Michelin and won't consider another brand again.

In rain the tire catches traction In stoping and take off as if it goes below the rain to stop or take off with a squeal as if it were on dry pavement. Haven't ever experienced another tire to do the job in wet conditions as if it were dry. I am 59 yrs. old and have never experienced another tire to do this. Other tire companys shouls want to learn this from you all!

I ran these on a 2003 2500 HD Chev pickup. I got 101,000 plus miles on the first set which I put on right after I bought the truck new. Put the second set on in the spring of this year. Hope the truck lasts as long as the second set of tires. I've never gotten this kind of mileage on a tire before. My wife drives a tahoe and as soon as the factory tires wear out I'll put Michelin LTX-MS on it so she will have a safe long lasting tire on her vehicle. Its doesn't get any better than this.

Just Love Michelin

Replaced my Michelin Latitude Tour HPs (after 50,000 miles) on my 2009 Acura MDX with the four new Defender LTX MS. Have had them for only a month now, but really like them. Smooth, quiet, and seem to hug the road well in wet and dry conditions. Have driven them on highway and city....perform well in both instances.

Bumpedy bump down the road we go

LT285/65R20/E 127/124R by far the worst set of Michelins I have ever owned. As with each new truck I replaced the stock tires on a brand new 2020 GMC 2500HD Denali with 30 miles on odometer. Dealer has balanced them twice within 500 miles. Still the bumps and vibrations are terrible. Is there a certified Michelin dealer in the 28546 that can check to make sure the tires are not defective?

I had a vibration in my van. I tried everything to fix it. I even had the drivetrain balanced. I bought a set of Michelin tires and the vibration was gone. Later I found out you had to replace the rear end in the van. But, I didn't have to because of Michelin
