I am on my third set of ...

I am on my third set of Michelin tires on my 1996 Ford Explorer that I drive daily to work. My Wife is on the second set on her 2004 Expedition. These tires changed the ride and handling tremendously. Neither vehicle has a rough ride, one has almost 300,000 miles on it, 275,000 on Michelins, the other almost 96,000 miles. I haven't used another brand since 1998.

Michellin LTX MS

Have been a loyal Michellin customer. These tire out performed by expectations for miles and ride quality. I was able to get 85,000 miles with limited rotation. The tires still had 5,000 to 10,000 miles, but with winter coming, it was time to change. Will always stay with Michellin.

Fantastic mileage

I've been a michelin buyer for over 40 years and these are by far the best tires I've ever had. They came new on my 2008 Honda Ridgeline and they now have 79,125 miles on them and I just ordered a replacement set and I hope to get the same mileage out of the next ones. Great job Michelin

Great tires, I have run two sets, looking for my third!

I run these tires on my Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 Cummins Quad Cab. It's my second set now , I get about 80,000 km's out of them now and I'm just looking here to see size options as I'm going to need to replace them before the snow flys. I have considered other tires but in the end I'm not prepared to put up with any tire noise or ride issues. These Defenders are amazing, quiet, smooth, accurate, great traction in wet, snow, mud. Just need to find a dealer that can get me a good price as they are expensive but they are worth it for sure. My truck was stock with 265-70-17, but I have been running 285-70-17 with amazing results, my truck when not pulling a trailer will get 10.2 Lphkm, about 29 mpg at 110 kph.

Typical Michelin

2014 Charger that came with Pilot MXM4’s which are excellent. Decided to go with a long lasting tire since she has surpassed 120k. The defender has a bit more cushion than the MXM4 and the Pilot Sports I’ve also had. Great highway ride and strong handling attributes even compared with the sportier tire.

Excellent choice

I own 7 vehicles and 6 of them have Michelin defender's other 1 has Michelin Pilot Sport. that wear great NO Problems. No balance issues, they wear proper. Work great on snow and ice (tires help on snow and ice but only if you actually know how to drive on it). Excellent wet weather traction. I don't have tpms (tire pressure monitoring system) on none of them, don't want it and don't need it! I can feel if it doesn't feel right and I'll pull over and check. I also check tire pressure's on a regular basis. I don't rotate every oil change or any of that mess. I rotate only when it's needed. I'm changing a set on my 2000 Honda Accord V6 in the morning (6-29-24) that has around 68,000 miles on them with 3/32 left on them and only rotated twice (car driven VERY regularly to Duke children's hospital 2.4 hr drive 1 way, I just ain't trusting any other tire for it). My alignments are right. Never ever will there be a so called "special on alignment" ever done on anything I own, all they do is toe and go or just get it to look good for the printout. I do my own set to exact specs! Absolutely no worn parts. If you're ever told "we can adjust it for it being worn". Nope, you just got took. On another note you can not buy tires only by size and price you have to get not only the tire size BUT you have to get the speed and weight rating for your application. Example P205/65r15 94H. P is for Passenger, LT is needed for trucks that's going to be hauling anything heavy. The 94H is the load index & speed rating extremely crucial. It can literally mean the tire can't hold the weight it is carrying/hauling or handle the speed your going to be driving. Therefore I don't buy tires by price, I buy what I need and just pay the price needed and in the end it's cheaper and safer. Thanks Michelin

Great tires

I just put these on my 2017 Tacoma TRD off road 4x4 and so far, they’re great! Took them on the highway after installing and no noise at 70+ mph. Ride comfort is great. Interested in seeing how they perform in rain as my stock tires didn’t do so well.

Tires were great on my SUV

Even wear on a ford SUV almost unheard of. By far the best tires I have ever had on a all wheel drive SUV. No they are not mud tires but on and off road traction has been wonderfull they even do good on the beach in the sand. 70, 000+ miles. They do great on the ohio snow covered roads, the beach on the east cost and the wet or dry highway. Very quiet and smooth on the road. I never right reviews most things just don't impress me enough to spend the time but this was the best upgrade for my mercury mountainer. This coming from a auto and truck repair technician with 20 plus years on the job.

Snoothest Riding Tire Ever

The tires will grow on anyone who rides in your car. They perform in all conditions. People are amazed on how well they grip the road even in wet weather. I put this tire on all of my kids cars for years. My company I work for put them on all of their trucks. Out all of the years I have used Michelin, I have never had to use my spare tire. You will be amazed of the quiet comfort ride they provide.
