This is my third SUV that I have bought the Michelin LTX M/S. They give me great traction and control in the ever changing winter weather in Colorado. I also appreciate the lower amount of road noise in the summer. I have also found that they get better mileage than listed if your driving is non-aggressive. Whenever I go off road for fishing or camping I never worry about road or vehicle control. I always recommend these tires to all my friends that have trucks or SUV's.

My first set of this tire lasted through 130,000 miles and I am now on my second set of the same one. Traction in snow is far beyond reasonable expectation...they are reasonably quiet and comfortable...the best I can find for my Explorer. What more can I say? I have absolutely no complaints and have even convinced my wife to put Michelins on her Honda.

I have a very heavy (9500 pounds) one-ton van converted to a self-contained RV, and with over a ton on each corner, blowouts are something I wanted to avoid. These tires have done their job for the last five years in a commendable fashion. In addition to no problems with them, the fuel economy, smoothness, and braking are so good that I have no complaints at all. I'm replacing them with another set after 75,000 blessedly uneventful miles.

This has been my choice of tires for my Grand Cherokee, which now has 211,000 miles on it; It is a solid tire, that combines great road gripping abilities with a very comfortable ride. On top of that, it gives me about 80,000 miles to a set. Recommended.

After checking reviews on several tires for my 2002 Chevy Suburban, 4wd i settled on my first set of Michelin tires. Had about 40,000 miles on the vehicle at the time in 2005. The present milage is 150,000. Two tires were changed at 140000 due to a large puncture. Two are still running but will be changed in the next three weeks. They have not worn to the indicators and have no sign of drying. Probably an equal use of highway, pulling a 16 foot cargo trailer, and in town driving. Quiet and the milage. Mind you I rotated the tires every 10000 miles and kept them balanced and the front end alligned.

These tires came on my truck when purchased Brand new in 2000. I have continued with this brand because they are dependable ,wear well, and ride is smooth and they last for over 75,000 miles or more. I still have the original spare time that came with the truck. These are the best brand of tires and I recommend them to everyone.

I have used a total of 48 of these tires since 1989 on two different Dodge 3500 dually trucks,carrying a Lance camper at 5,000 pounds loaded, often towing boats from 17 to 23 feet and travelling from Cabo San Lucas, Mexico to Anchorage. Alaska and throughout Western 1/2 of the US without a single failure. These tires performance in a mix of heavy loads, hot highways and bad roads have given me great confidence during my widely varied travels! I will be a lifelong customer of this superb and reliable product.

Purchased a 5 year old sport trac with 69000 miles. It had new Michelin LTX M/S tires. At 175000 miles and 106000 miles on the tires, I am wondering if they are ever going to wear out? Light hauling, highway miles,some trailering. Great all season tire .Best I have ever owned. Thank You Michelin Man

I've had these tires for a couple of months now. The wet and dry handling and braking are excellent, similar to that of the Michelin Premier LTXs that were on the car previously. I hear a slight bit more road noise, and I feel more road imperfections with these Defenders than with the Premiers. But I believe that's because these Defenders have a more aggressive tread design and a longer-wearing (firmer) tread compound than the Premiers. That should mean that the Defenders will have better performance in the snow, and they should last longer; two traits I look forward to experiencing.

although i've only had this set of michelin ltx m/s tires for less than six months, what i've noticed so far is the smoothness and quietness of the ride they seem to provide. obviously, at less than six months old, there is no visible ware whatsoever. i'm happy with the tires and if they give me close to their warrantied life i'll likely buy another set.
