I have two vehicles and ...

I have two vehicles and after retiring price became center to many everyday purchases and tires became a pricing issue; over and above performance. After I purchased a set of tires through an on-line discount for my BMW I felt all my future purchases would come from a tire discounter with focus totally on price. However, before I had to purchase tires for my Landcruiser I was faced with a potential deadly situation, a blowout on the freeway. As I drove on the freeway in the center lane of a three lane freeway at 60 miles an hour I ran over something on the road that caused a loud noise under the vehicle. After traveling about � of mile I started to feel the frontend of the vehicle vibrated and at the same time two 18 wheel trucks pulled next to me on the right and left sides. The vehicle continued to vibrate and the tire began to fail. As the trucks continued passed the tire blew completely out. Due to the structure of the tires I had on my vehicle I was able to maintain complete control of my vehicle and those tires were Michelin LTX M/S P275/70SR16. I can give a firsthand report - Michelin tires are lifesavers.

Best Tires for the Money

These are the best tires I have ever purchased for any vehicle. I got 90,000 miles out of this set of 60,000 mile tires. Only rotated once and tread wear was even throughout the time I had them on my truck. That is why I replaced those tires with the exact same tire regardless of the price. It is a good investment. I highly recommend these tires if you are looking for a smooth quiet ride, even wear, and long use.

BEST LIGHT TRUCK TIRE WVER!

LTX M/S is my current tire on my Ram 3500 diesel! This is my second set on this truck! Original tire made it to 70K. Previous set of Michelin’s made 96K! I have had a set for 125K on a smaller truck! I have also had LTX M/S’ and the previous models on Suburbans, Is excursions and other light trucks. Total sets 9-10. Consistent performance, quiet, great in all weather and mileage has al aye been excellent!

103,000 miles and counting

This tire came standard with my new Ford Econoline van in 2006, and are still serving well at 103,000 miles. I may replace them before winter, but there is still good tread remaining, and the sidewalls look like new! They are quiet, reliable, and good looking.

I owned a set of Michelins on a Volvo I once owned. Now that I have a daughter and I am concerned about her safety more than my own and she needed good tires I bought her the best that I once knew of: Michelin. If I can afford them for my wife, (she's the primary driver in our home), her next set of tires will be Michelins also.

Much better than OEM my ride came with; extremely happy

I've always trusted Michelins but my truck came with a different brand when purchased new. I wasn't happy with the OEM tires, especially on wet roads, so I switched to the Michelins. Since my switch, I've been extremely happy with the ride and performance, especially during inclement weather. Why would anyone want to ride on inferior tires? Buy a set of Michelins and feel the difference.

Great Tires

Replaced the OEM tires with the LTX M/S on our Chevy 2500 truck. The ride and noise was improved tremendously. We only got about 30,000 miles from the OEM tires and the LTX gave use almost 60,000 miles. I am now on the second set of LTX's on the truck. Very good traction in rain and snow.

Best all around tires available!

This is my 3rd set of Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires. They last a long time! I rotate them every 6000 miles. They handle well in wet and snowy conditions. My vehicle tracks better with Michelin tires. I have them on my Suburban and my 2500 HD. both "E" rated. They're great no matter what the task, from hauling just myself around to fully loaded with passengers and luggage, to towing my 32' travel trailer. These tires are quiet as well. I have had many other tire brands, some good some bad, but Michelin are the best and well worth the little extra they cost.

Fantastic tire, worth every penny!

My 2008 Honda Ridgeline came with these tires as original equipment. At 68,000 miles they still had tread that would pass inspection but I knew that coming into winter I better start looking to replace. I was thinking I may try a cheaper brand and save some bucks so I shopped around. I finally came to my senses and replaced with the OE LTX tires. After doing the math, I would likely not get the same miles or quality ride out of cheap tires. If I got 68,000 miles out of the first set I hope I get 75,000 out of the second set. Cost per mile works out to be less with the Michelins. Truck rides like new again and I can confidently travel the Pennsylvania winters with no worries.

Bought a used Nissan 4X4 ...

Bought a used Nissan 4X4 pickup, the tires were worn but I thought I could get a few more miles on them. Then I picked up a nail in the sidewall on one, and went looking for a replacement. Being a Saturday, some tire dealers were closed, go figure, so I stopped at place I don't normally shop. They had a set of 4 Michelin LTX M/S tires, just the right size and offered a good price, so I said why not? They improved the looks of the truck right away, and as I pulled away from the shop, I could not believe how mush better they made the truck ride. Later, we had some of the worst snow we've had for some time. In 4 wheel drive, those tires were unstoppable, they just kept on digging. Will I buy more Michelins, you better believe it!
