Immediately noticed a smoother and quieter ride when I switched to these Defender 2 tires. I have had great performance from Michelin Defender tires for several years while using them on my minivan. I we would highly recommend these tires.

I bought these tires for the upcoming snow we were supposed to have. They worked great in the snow. I'm very pleased with the tires, and installation.

Smoothest riding tire's I've ever purchased. Handles well too in all conditions. 70k tire life.

Good traction, hopeing to get 70,000 miles!

Could be Michelin's best tire. OEM on parents '03 GMC Envoy. I normally am not a fan of OEM tires, but these were exceptional. When replacement time came, local tire shop (and Michelin experts) recommended that these tires were still the best option. Just replaced those, as my parents don't drive nearly as much in their advanced age and the tires were starting to show signs of dry rot, which I've read is normal with Michelin's high mileage tires as they just don't wear out! These newest ones are probably the best Michelin tires, and I speak from experience. Another vehicle was supplied OEM with Primacy Tours, which were trash, and I replaced with the Defender2 and while better, aren't the equal of the Defender LTX! I have another vehicle with Pilot Sport All Season 4s which might be slightly better than the Defender LTX, but I have to knock them a point as I can't get 20k miles on them. But they ARE a high performance tire, and phenomenal! The Defender LTX is incredibly quiet, smooth, and resists hydroplaning and tramlining. Haven't bee drven in the snow, but considering how excellent they are in the other 3 seasons, I'm confident they'd perform just fine in the snow. Highly recommend!

These are a little more expensive, but I have found that family that is depending on the tire is worth it. It was delivered faster than promised on the website.

Hands down, these are the best tires on the market for passenger vehicles. I've had these tires on 3 different vehicles now. 2 pickups and an SUV. Excellent traction, very smooth ride, and great durability. Provides confidence when on snow, ice, water or other slippery surfaces. Until one of these fails me prematurely, I will never put a different tire on any of my vehicles.

This will be the third set of Defender LTX M/S that have been on my truck. The first set was on the truck when I bought it in 2013. That set had 83,000 miles on them. I then bought another set of the same tire hoping they would last as long as the first set. And they did even better with 90,000 miles on those. Now I have the third set on. I hope they do just as well. I check the tire pressure on a regular basis and rotate them every 10,000 miles. Both sets have worn very evenly and ride very nice. I live in MN and they do well in all four seasons. I drive a Honda Ridgeline and it handles very well with these tires.

Best tires I've ever purchased! I put them on both of my Tacomas and I'm on my second set on my current daily driver. I get close to 100k miles on each set. Yes, I rotate them and run the appropriate tire pressure as scheduled. The handling of my truck in adverse weather is so much better with my Michelin Defender LTX M/S...even in hurricane rain they grip the road while other vehicles are hydroplaning

Tires are excellent but the install was pathetic. Three tires were properly balanced, but the last tire had more than 17 wheel weights fitted, 180 degrees opposite each other, I have photos. No manager with tire experience available, a different technician rebalanced the tire using only a couple of ounces of stick on weight. Called Michelin customer service who called the store. Store lied to Michelin rep, said they ran out of one type of weights (no, all four had the same type) and my rim was bent. Rim wasn't bent when I pulled in, wasn't advised it was bent, allowed to leave with supposed bent rim (wasn't bent). Michelin rep did nothing but advised I could pay to have it rebalanced on my dime. These are good tires but the install was improper and the tech needs retrained. Tires are a safety issue!!! Never again will I purchase tires from Sam's Club.
