These tires were purchased for daily commuting in our Honda Pilot. The m/s's ride and handle better than any other light truck tire on the market. The only downside to these tires is the price. As in most other cases, you get what you pay for. I am very happy with them and will purchase another set when these need to be replaced.

My Michelin Defender LTS M/S are now 83,000 miles and 5 years old and still have a few hundred miles left over. I keep very good care of them and rotate them every oil change. With time tires get hard and performance gets compromised so with this heavy rains is better to change. If you get such a long life is not such a big investment at all. I strongly recommend this tire which was the OEM on my F150.

I've been driving Recreational Vehicles of one sort or another since 1972. In 2005, purchased a new Motorhome with the Michelin LTX m/s tires on it. Best tires I've ever had on an R/V. Trouble-free, smooth, quiet and tough tires. Never a concern or worry while driving with a set of these tires under you!

I have owned a 2005 Jeep Wrangler for the past five years, and I spent the first three years of that ownership living with what has been described in many online articles as the "Death Warble." The Death Warble would occur at almost anytime when the vehicle was making a slight turn and then encountered a sharp bump in the road, when traveling between 55 to 65 MPH. The front end of the vehicle would begin to shake violently, and begin loosing control. The only way to stop the shaking was to instantly slow the vehicle to 40 MPH, or flatten the accelerator to the floor. Neither option was popular with fellow drivers or the law enforcement community. So I repeatedly took the vehicle which had only 21,000 miles at the first occurrence back to the dealer, who suggested an extended warrantee, since I had purchased the vehicle used. I had the tires rotated, balanced, and the car aligned, all to no avail. I simply lived with the problem for another two years, until I just couldn't stand it any longer. Finally, at around 60,000 miles I decided it was time for new tires. I purchased four new Michelin LTX-MS tires after hours of online research for tires with a stiff sidewall, which I suspected might be the cause of my problem. I have now logged 30,000 miles on my new Michelins, and I have never once experienced the Death Warble again! Not only that, but I can now actually drive my Jeep comfortably on long trips due to the improvement in ride quality, and I'm getting better gas milage! What more can I say, except, "Well Done Michelin." You may have saved my live, and you most certainly improved the quality of it.

LTX A/T2 LOAD RANGE E; IS THE BEST TIRE I HAVE EVER PURCHASED. I have had them on my Chevy Duramax for 3 month's now with over 3,000 miles on them. At first i thought that they mite have some road hum to them, I WAS WRONG. There is none! I use my truck for a lot of thing's _towing_{up to a 32 ft. in closed car trailer}_snow plowing_,and hauling just about any thing.They have excellent traction+ stopping in rain, snow, and even ice. I have not lost any fuel consumption at all, and they ride excellent---- Things that are not great ?---" NOTHING"--- : JUST THE BEST:

Our vehicles (17+" tires) all have Michelin tires. Purchased smaller used vehcile (15") with non-Michelin but quickly forced to replace. Immediately had little or no road noise, tail-fishing or bumpy ride! The smaller tires are as excellent as their bigger "siblings"!!

I had the original Michelin LTX MS and now have about 500 miles on the new Defender LTX MS. I think Michelin really got it right with the whole design of this tire. The original LTX is a great beloved tire. It provides good all season traction, a smooth quiet ride and decent tread life. I see the difference to the LTX MS2 and the Defender LTX I am driving is mostly in the outer shoulder block tread design. Its not open so water and slush can evacuate more easily. I like this idea. So far I love the new Defender. My only advice to Michelin and keep a decent tread depth on your tires. For an SUV or truck 11/32 should be the minimum.

Since I have bought my Michelin Defender LTX M/S a month ago I have enjoyed a few benefits that other wise would have alluded me. first the ride is second to none. you don't realize this until you have new tires, gas mileage has increased and sure footed feel is the best! Thank you Michelin!

Living in NJ with all the quick changes in temperature & weather, I have had all brands of tires on my trucks & vehicles and these tires are the best. They hold the road in rain, snow or windy conditions. I have even talked my friends & co-workers into buying them. So all I can say is "Buy the best & forget the rest"

I have Michelins on 2 of 3 of my trucks. I decided to 'save a few bucks' and went with Bridgestones. I was not happy with the performance since day one. They lasted about 40k miles and were horrible. Two of them leaked and had to be pumped up weekly. I'm back on to Michelins and I won't stray again!
