Have had 7 LTX-MS2 tires replaced in the last year. Failures ranged from blowout at freeway speeds due to tread separation, sidewall puncture, tread penetration thru the belts by virtually anything. The 6th was a sudden sidewall failure and upon changing the tire noticed that the rip was about 4 inches long but the interesting part was the sidewall only had ONE belt--not two like printed on the tire. Previously ran 2 sets of Michelin tires over 100,000 miles each with NO failures.

We were on a cross country trip. The passenger car tires were not holding up to pulling a trailer. With a sense of urgency we purchased new tires. Had never purchased Michelins before as I thought they were over rated and over priced. The tires were the only thing in stock in my size so the purchase was made. Putting the LT tires on the van greatly reduced the side to side sway and increased overall stability and safety. Even with the trailer unhitched there was a marked improvement in handling. The van now has a bit harsher ride due to the LT tires. It is worth the truck like feel for better stability. Being light in the rear I had always had problems in rain and snow. Now my wife is not afraid to drive the van on wet roads and light snow. Rotating on a regular basis I was able to get 80,000 miles out of these tires. And yes they were replaced with the same tire.

I use these tires on my old Chevy Suburban to haul my 4500 lb sailboat out of the water at wet launch ramps and then back in after doing biannual maintenance to the boat. I also use this boat to haul the boat away from the ocean in the event of a hurricane near Charleston, SC. I need excellent load carrying capability and traction, and these tires perform flawlessly.

I purchased these for a 2018 Lincoln Navigator. However, road noise was persistent over 40 mph, the tires felt relatively unstable at highway speeds, and tracking wasn't linear. These are great truck tires, but I found them unsuitable for a luxury SUV. I returned the Defender LTX M&S 2 tires for a set of CrossClimate2 and am more than pleased.

My 2008 Honda Ridgeline came with these tires as original equipment. At 68,000 miles they still had tread that would pass inspection but I knew that coming into winter I better start looking to replace. I was thinking I may try a cheaper brand and save some bucks so I shopped around. I finally came to my senses and replaced with the OE LTX tires. After doing the math, I would likely not get the same miles or quality ride out of cheap tires. If I got 68,000 miles out of the first set I hope I get 75,000 out of the second set. Cost per mile works out to be less with the Michelins. Truck rides like new again and I can confidently travel the Pennsylvania winters with no worries.

Two years ago after 32 inch snowfall I was the only one on the road besides the plow trucks. The day before, on my way home from work, the snow was coming down hard and I was headed for a 250 foot elevation hill climb. About halfway up, and around the bend, cars were in the ditch and blocking the road. I had to come to a complete stop on the steep incline. Whew, I didn't slide back down the hill. I put it in four-wheel-drive low expecting some slippage as I started moving again. Surprisingly no slippage whatsoever! I slalomed around the cars and pulled a couple out of the ditch and one up the hill to safety. Without a doubt I would purchase Michelin mud and snow tires again for my four-wheel-drive vehicle.

I have put michelins on my suvs for 16 years as well as my dad. We have found that the tread wear outlast the competition by far. They have been far superior over any other tires I have driven on especially during rain or snow. I would highly recommend michelins to anyone ready to buy new tires!!

Have bought Michelin tires for every car I owned. I bought these tires last week and drove on a short highway trip 3 days later. Horrible vibrations and they ride like a mack truck on constant potholes. The ride beat me to death and could not wait to get out of the vehicle. Loved my vehicle until I put these tires on the auto and regret this purchase already.

Retired and purchased a fifth wheel. Got a diesel pick up truck to pull it. When it came time to purchase tires, called a friend whose company used the same truck for tire recommendation. He suggested Michelin. Had several less expensive options but wife and I decided to go with the Michelins. Purchase the LTX M/S and been more than satisfied. Pulled the RV around the country with no problems. The tires ride smooth and I believe they help with fuel consumption. Good tire and good service from my local Michelin dealer.

These tires are excellent and I simply can't say enough to express how impressed I have been with them. They were the original tires on my 2009 Honda Ridgeline when I bought it, and at a little over 106,000 miles I have just replaced them with a brand new set of four. When the technicians removed the old tires they had worn very evenly and I probably could have gotten another few hundred miles out of them before they really needed to be changed. When I bought my truck I had a job that had me driving all over the state of Minnesota in all seasons including a very harsh winter. The tires never failed me in snow, on ice, in rain nor on hundreds upon hundreds of highway and back road driving. The ride on them is also very smooth; I can't count how many people have told me that my Ridgeline rides like a sedan. Overall, these are excellent tires that I would recommend to anyone. I just put a brand new set on my truck and am looking forward to another 100,000 miles!
