LTX M/S LTX M/S 2 & tomorrow the Defender LTX M/S

I've been driving since 1983. I've driven a tremendous amount of miles for someone who doesn't make a living driving cargo. I've run the first 2 versions of this line on a Chevy Tahoe 4x4 and Ford F-150 4x4. These tires are amazing. They run noticeably smoother, quieter and longer than OEM tires. They are absolutely the best all purpose on road tire available in our Cleveland and Ohio climate. I know Michelin does not approve running tires too long and I never will again. but our last set, on the Tahoe, ran 117,000 miles when we sold the Tahoe at 260,000 miles. A friend purchased the vehicle and said the tires ran another 10,000 miles.

Nice tire. Horrid mileage

For my last six vehicles I’ve bought Michilens when it came time to replace originals. Nice ride and good handling. These are the same in that respect. However the mileage dropped immediately and consistently from the original tires. I am averaging 15% to 20% LOWER gas mileage since I had these put on. All that great tread is going to give me is several thousand more miles of less than optimal gas economy.

Happy so far.

Bought these tires after researching options for my 2018 Sierra SLT. Looking for the tire that would give me the best overall ride and still be a "truck" tire. These tires give a super smooth ride and are very quiet. So far they have handled rain/ wet roads with no problems. Living in Michigan, snow will be the next obstacle to tackle. Hope they handle the challenge well.

Disappointed

When I originally purchased my truck it had the LTX MS. They lasted a total of two years and about 35000k when they were so weather cracked I was afraid of them blowing. As the truck was 2 years old had them replaced under warranty. Three years later and 45000k, again they were weather cracked. As they no longer make the straight LTX , I had to have them replaced with the defender LTX MS. They pick up stones like no ones business. If it wasn’t for the mud flaps I would be repainting the bottom half of the truck. A terrible amount of road noise to boot. They do perform almost as well in winter , but not as well as the original LTX. These tires have been on a year, and if I have to replace them again in a year or two, I may be navigating out of the Michelin line..

Wonderful tires

These tires are on my 3/4 ton pickup, they have wonderful traction when I am off road and when I am traveling through snow and rain. These are very long lasting tires which also have a smooth ride with minimal road noise. I will be purchasing Michelin similar tires to replace these tires in a few years.

Michelin Defender Tires Great on Ice

Michelin Defender Tires They make great affordable tires, and safety is a must on the mountain in the wintertime. Great performance, smooth riding, quiet tires, very comfortable ride. Installation was a bit pricey,I need 5 new ones on my SUV now. Yes,I recommend these tires.

LTS M/S

Had my LTX M/S tires for a year. They are fantastic! I've probably put 10,000 miles on them and they still look new. I've bought many sets of Michelin over the years and they've all stood up well for distance driving and local driving. I live in the NC mountains, so they really have to grip a lot of curbs--and they do grip. Pay the extra; it's worth it!

Quiet and smooth ride

I have had my tires for about 10,000 miles. They are very quiet, and give me a smooth ride as well. I believe in Michelin tires and have purchased them for half of my life. They have never failed me and I have never had a problem with any of my Michelin tires getting cupped on the edges and making noise. They are not the cheapest tire but they are worth the cost in the long run. Spend the time to rotate them every 5000 miles and they will last you a long time.

I just recently purchased ...

I just recently purchased my Michelin ltx M/S tires for my 2006 Honda Ridgeline. Driving makes me feel like I'm on a cloud. They adhere to the road surface without sliding. I've driven on gravel and there is very little slippage on a hill. They fit well & look great! There is alot of road construction in my area with lots of graded surfaces. The tires I previously had rode hard and I could feel the roughness on the road. The Michelin ltx M/S have a smooth ride and I barely feel the graded surface (although I try to avoid the construction areas). I live in a mountainous area with many different road surfaces and weather changes. I haven't had any problems with my tires and love the way they feel and handle! When my 1999 car needs new tires, I will definetly purchase Michelin for it as well!! My husband works in the Automotive industry and he agrees that Michelin are the best brand of tire you can get.

Rolling & Driving excellence!

We our proud new owners of our 31.5' Coachmen Freelander Motorhome and the one thing we decided was to put 6 new tires on. The Michelin LTX M/S 225/75R16 by far has been the absolute best choice because the ride is smoother and I definitely feel more confident on some of the road types that we ride on with these on our rig. I have not found anything bad about these tires.
