Best tire ever owned!

An exceptional light truck tire! Good handling, great ride, outstanding durability. I got over 86,000 miles and almost eight years of trouble free service out of the original equipment LTX M/S tires that came on my '06 Honda Ridgeline. Could not ask for more from a tire - replaced them with an identical set.

These tires are mounted ...

These tires are mounted on a 12 passenger Van. They are performing up to my expectations with regard to wear and comfort. I have used them in wet, dry and Icy conditions. In fact, I believe the tread design ( sipes into the tread pattern) were a big part in slowing the Van down when we hit some black Ice. We were on our way back from a Thanksgiving trip 2006, to Astoria, Oregon. While pulling our 7500 lb travel trailer up over highway 26 we encountered black Ice just as we crested a hill. Once we started down, the Van began to slide. I used the brakes very cautiously and was able to get stopped. These tires work really well.

Snow traction is back!

Had to replace the OEM Hankook Ventus all season tires at 28k miles. They didn’t last long. The major snowfall of the season they had me questioning my Explorer. It’s 4WD and even in the snow mode, traction wasn’t there. Braking was horrible, ABS was kicking in all the time. Felt like I was back to driving my Town Car, and even that dealt with the snow better. The Ford dealer agreed these tires were about done. Weeks later the dealer hooked me up with these tires. No more flat spots. The ride improved, quieter too. Yes I know new tires make a difference. But the old tires weren’t that old. The next snowfall was a big improvement. Traction was back, braking was confident. 1,000 miles with these tires and so far I’m sold this was a smart purchase. 6 inches of unplowed roads this morning and I felt much more confident. Driving smart of course. Cannot say how long these will last but my precious experience of these tires on a ‘99 Tahoe was favorable too. Good tires for this vehicle.

76,600+ miles

Just bought my third set of these tires for my RAM 1500. The last set had 76,600 miles on them and still had 5/32. Each set has been great. Great handling in all types of weather and low noise. Regular tire rotation kept wear even throughout their life. Couldn't be happier.

Excellent Quality and Ride

The Michelin Defender LTX are great quality tires and have a luxury ride. I have purchased my second set of these tires. The first set had almost 100,000 miles on them and still were in usable condition. I highly recommend these tires for high mileage and smooth ride.

A world of difference

First accumulating snow in Michigan 2013. From the trip in, to the trip home with new tires; these new LTX m/s made a world of a difference. The sure grip was very noticeable. No where near the slip and slide at stopping or acceleration. Good choice of tires on my Explorer.

Excellent tires for my truck

I drive back and forth to my home in northeast Ohio to my Condo in North Carolina. My Michelin LTX M/S tires give me a smooth and quiet ride on highways and the security of being able to handle any rain or snowy conditions on the roads. Great tires…great price..

GREAT TIRE

I bought these tires in June 2021 and really like the way the handle the road. The only thing I do not like about them is they sling gravel or catch (pick up) items off the roadway, I have running boards but you can hear the gravel hit the under truck or the running boards. I don't know if over time it will chip my vehicel. I had the AT/2 Michelins up to 181 thousand on truck and had no complaints there but these had 10 thousand extra miles on the life of tire so thought I would try them out, so we'll see.
