I purchased a used Ford Explorer 4x4 from a Ford dealer with a mis-matched set of tires. Knowing the vehicle was based on a truck platform, I still felt the highway ride should have felt better than what I was experiencing - loud tire whine,vibrations and a rough ride. I quickly replaced the OEM shocks which improved the ride somewhat, but it wasn't until I went to my Michelin dealer and he recommended the LTX M/S tires than I finally had the improvement I was looking for. After I replaced that mis-matched set of tires with the new Michelin LTX M/S's and drove it home, I thought my Explorer had been replaced with a look alike. I mean everything about the performance was dramatically improved! The ride was smooth with no tire whine and no more annoying vibration. It felt like the vehicle was finally gripping the road. And in the rain, it felt like I was riding on rails. Who knew tires would've made such a huge difference? I do now! I finally felt safe and secure, like I now had a vehicle that could take me anywhere. I'm a Michelin fan for life now! No other tires for me.

I bought 4 new tires from my local car dealer. The tires perform in all types of weather with excellent grip. In addition, the tires have given me great wear, they currently have 45,000 miles and still show a significant amount of tread. There is no road tire noise of any kind and I get great mileage. So, in summary, very safe, great wear, no noise, great mileage and no required maintenance (other than allignment). Yes, I will buy them again.

I just bought a new set of Defender LTX M/S tires for my 2018 Lincoln Navigator. They are quiet, even on typically noisy concrete. We'll see if they perform as well and exceed the tread life warranty like my multiple sets of LTX M/S2 tires did on my Ford Expedition. Tire rotations every 5,000 miles make a difference in making the tread wear more evenly.

I purchased a new set of Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires to replace my worn tires on my Honda CR-V. I did about two months of research and found the Defenders to be the best value for what I needed in snow and highway conditions. I can not express how disappointed I am with the handling and ride comfort of these tires. The slightest gust of wind nearly knocks me off of the road as well as extreme vibrations at 60 - 70 mph. Cornering and fast manuvering is nearly impossible and extremly dangerous at highway speeds. I have had these tires rebalanced twice as well as having my CR-V looked over by the Honda dealership to see if it was a problem with my car. I was told by the dealership that it was the new Defenders I had installed and that there are no issues with my vehicle. This was my first and will be my last Michelin purchase.

I have nothing but good things to say about the LTX M/S. Having 5 daughters playing hockey, I have had many miles driving on these tires. I have driven through many snow storms and unplowed roads. Traction has been wonderful. One trip to Duluth Minnesota we experienced a storm which closed the city. Duluth is pretty hilly, the amount of snow we had to navigate was challenging. One of the parents thought I had four wheel drive. He could not believe it was only two wheel drive and was impressed how well the Michelin tires performed. Bib would be proud. I have convinced two friends to change to Michelin and they have been very happy with them. When its time for new tires I know they will be Michelin.

I installed a set of Michelins on my pickup when the original tires wore out at about 64,000 miles (I'm not a "hard driver", so I tend to get good mileage out of tires). I drove that set of Michelins for approximately 65,000 miles. These Michelins now have only 8,000 miles on them, but they are as excellent as the previous set. I bought my first set of Michelins in 1971, and with only one exception, I've bought only Michelins since then--and I've never had a faulty Michelin tire.

Good looking, long wearing tire. Whenever I've put LTX M/S on a vehicle those were the last tires I bought for the vehicle. Great traction on the beach. I buy AWD vehicles to drive on the beach, and LTX M/S is the best tire for off road and on road. The only inhibition is price. The most expensive tire you can buy.

Tires are good for what it does. Good tracing in the snow and they last a long time. A few gripes that I have is the loud road noise that comes from the tires at high speeds. In addition, two of the four tires I bought were not good since even after multiple balancing and even having my rims checked for deformities, the tires would wobble when the car was in motion. Brought it up with the place where I bought it from and they said it was all right, but my mechanic said that should not be the case and that the tires should be like the other non-problematic one.

Best set of tires that I've ever owned. Currently have over 85,000 miles on them. Excellent wet pavement characteristics. Low noise even after many miles. Only issue was rubber dry cracking around rim bead within first 15,000 miles which has not seemed to affect tire life.

I've had 3 sets of these tires and get about 85,000-90,000 miles out of them. They still have plenty of thread on them but I change them out because of the mileage on them. I would and have recommened these tires to anyone and everyone who wants a great tire for the money!
