GET MORE THAN YOUR MONEY'S WORTH !!

Great value! The ride is phenomenal! Safety and braking are very good. Peace of mind having my family members ride on these tires. Best of all.....the wear life is incredible with proper balancing and rotations! In today's world it is nice to find a value for your money. Thanks Michelin!

Got a good price on these tires over the phone. Salesman switched me to a house brand. We could not get the vibration balanced out after 3 times including a "road force" balance. I insisted he take them off and give me the Michelins for which I originally asked. We installed the Michelins and with one or two tiny weights, instead of all the heavy ones on all the wheels, I have the smoothest ride anyone could ask for. It made me remember the words of a friend who was a service advisor for a car dealer who told people with balance problems, "do yourself a favor and let me sell you some Michelins. In every case it solved the problem. I will ONLY use Michelins!

Very disappointed in these tires

Bought new Michelin 18” Defender LTX M/S2 tires for a Ford F250 to replace Michelins that had come with the truck. My old tires were smooth as silk and I actually got more miles from them than the warranty. However, the new tires vibrated badly, so I had them rebalanced twice, with no improvement. Michelin replaced the tires under warranty, but the new tires also vibrate badly. I took them to another shop that had a road force balancer and paid out of my own pocket to have them rebalanced again. There was some improvement, but there’s still a significant amount of vibration. I'm very disappointed in these tires.

Best truck tire on the market - bare none!

3.7 star average is nuts! I have had 2 sets of Defenders on my Ford Expedition. Nothing else compares! Amazing tread life - 70k is true. Amazing traction - WV mountains no slip, no slide, will go anywhere. Amazing quiet ride. The only tire to buy for your SUV - bare none!

Probably the best tire ...

Probably the best tire out there. I live on a dirt road which becomes a mud road when it rains and snows. No problems getting through when conditions are rough. This tire beats them all for mileage ratings. Smooth on passenger cars and durable on SUV's. Don't change this one at all! I would like to see this tire in more sizes.

Tires - not so great!

I purchased tires in Novmber 2021. Immediately took a trip. The truck now rides very rough with lots of vibration. Went back to place of purchase. They rebalanced. Did not help issue. Went back second time. They rebalanced again. Because I was so unhappy with tires, they replaced two of them. I still have the rough ride and vibration. I personnel think the back are bad tires. Would not purchase this tire again.

this tire came out on my 2001 jeep wrangler and i replaced them on 2007 with 72,000 miles on them and there was still 4/32 tread left. I purchased a new set for this and they are wonderful, no shake or pull only smooth ride and long life. I am also able to go anywhere I need to go in the winter. I also purchased a set for my 2002 Jeep Liberty with the same good results! There is no other tire for me but a Michelin. Thanks for a wonderful product!

Michelen is the best tire on the road

I purchased a new Dodge Ram 2500 on September 8th, 2001. The truck had 75 miles on the odometer Michelin LTX A/S tires were the original tires that came with the truck. I never used a Michelin product before this point. But I noticed the truck had excellent ride characteristics with these tires. The winter was just around the corner but I found that I never had to worry because these tires always performed flawlesslsy in the worst weather. Another excellent quality about my Michelin tires was was how long the lasted. I was shocked to reach over 100,000 miles and still measure 5/32nds in tread depth. and in those 100,000 miles I never even had a flat or a puncture in any of the tires. Well, my choice for tires when it came time for replacement was obvious at this point, Michelin. I chose to go with the same exact tires that I had on the truck Michelin LTX A/S. and I experienced the same flawless year round performance for another 100,000 plus miles. By the time I was ready for my third set of tires for some reason Michelin discontinued the LTX A/S and I began to panic. Now what was I going to do? I could not switch brands now. Then I spoke to my tire dealer which is an official Michelin dealer and they assured me that the Michelin LTX M/S was a good replacement. I was a little skeptical at first because I liked the perfromance as well as the look of my Michelin LTX A/S tires. I took thier advice and purchased the Michelin LTX M/S tires and once again I got 100.000 plus miles of good solid year round performance. I have always been happy with Michelin tires, I am a mechanic and I am often asked which tires are a good purchase and I always recommend Michelin and refer to my history with them on my truck. That Ram has always been a special truck to me because it was the first new vechicle that I have ever bought, and the events that would unfold three days after I bought my new Ram on September 11. 2001 would suddenly give me a renewed appreciation for life and the freedoms we are blessed with in the United States of America. My Ram currently has about 450,000 miles on it and I am ready for my fourth set of Michelins. That truck has been good to me and has never given my any problems. My Michelin tires have been good to me too. I never even got a flat and my original Michelin LTX A/S spare tire is still mounted under the bed and still has full air pressure in it. My truck and my Michelins have taken me a lot of places. Somtimes a long way from home. But, I know that Ill always make it back because my truck has never let me down and neither has my Michelins

Michelin is the best

I run michelins on 3 vehicles, 2 dodge diesels and a jeep grand Cherokee. The first experience I had with Michelins was on a 2004 dodge truck. They came as original equipment. After 65 thousand miles, I replaced them with michelins and installed the used tires on another truck for they had about 40 percent tread left. When my grand Cherokee needed tires, I replaced the originals with michelins. They are the best.

Wear out too fast twice

This tire has worn out at 33,000 miles for the 2nd time. I'm tired of getting a 2nd set at a reduced price. I have them rotated every 5,000 miles so it is not my fault. Disappointed in a company I thought made a decent tires. Thinking about looking elsewhere!
