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!

save yourself both time & money buy thz

These are my second set of Michelin tires on my Duramax 2500 Diesel that has over 130K on it for milege. We tow a 31 foot Airstream Trailer, and ahve towed it across America twice. These Michelin tires have never failed and the milege on these have been close to 60-65K per set with rotation and air pressure being monitored. We're about to upgrade to 16" wheels on the Airstream and they will have Michelins and on our Cadillac SRX we use Michelins. The only bad thing is for Michelin, is they last forever. Buy Michelin and you will save yourself allot of time, money and frustration. A well worth investment for a long term return.

Best tire tread wear. Great traction in rain and snow!

I bought these tires over a year ago. I have had numerous sets of this tire due to the quality being uncompromising. Traction, tread ware, quality. That’s why I keep going back to to Michelin. I’ve had other brands, Yokohama, Goodyear, etc. Michelin perform and wear better. You pay for what you get especially when it comes to tires. Well worth the price every time!

Great tire for certain vehicles

I purchased these tires for a Escape Hybrid in November. These tires replaced the Michelin Lattitude Tour series (which is no longer offered in this size) based on Michelin's recommendations. These tires are essentially a light truck tire with extra load capacity, so the ride quality is notably harsh and there is more tread noise at low speeds. The total rolling resistance is considerably higher, lowering the Average Fuel Economy on the Escape by over 8 MPG. This tire is a good choice for light trucks and larger heavier SUV's, but a poor choice for smaller SUV's or hybrids.

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.

Longest Lasting tire

Best tires I ever had on a large truck/suv. Did so good on my Dodge Durango for 80,000 miles, I sold it with them still on it & bought a set for my Chevrolet Tahoe... only 50,000 miles on them but still going strong. Reliable, never flat & very minimal wear.

High mileage is an understatement!

Mine are the old style ltx and 6 years old with 87,000 current miles on them. The vehicle came with lattitudes that wore out at 77,000. I rotate myself every 5,000 and keep track of the correct rotation in a book. They show slight signs of sun wear and I'll change them before the next winter with an amazing amount of tread left. People still ask if I just bought new tires. Best handling, noise and wear tires I've ever owned!

Extremely Dissappointed in Michelin Defender

I bought these tires in 2021 and after 31,000 miles on an 70,000 mile warranty tire, they needed to be replaced. The worse part is that all 4 tires should have been replaced under warranty, but only 2 were replaced. I was very disappointed in my Michelin purchase.

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.

Got a good price on these ...

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!
