Starting Off on the Wrong Foot

I bought 4 tires on 12/11/18 for my Toyota Tacoma. These replaced a set of LTX MS 2 tires that had about 72k miles on them. I have a lot of history with Michelin tires between our two vehicles and I always had great success with them. But this set has really disappointed me so far. I had the tires mounted and balanced and on the way home I experienced a noticeable shudder. I took the truck right back to the dealership and they balanced all 4 tires again but to no avail. Another set of 4 tires were ordered and installed and I still had the problem. The dealer ended up measuring the runout (roundness) of every tire and found two tires from the first set and one from the second set that did not roll true. So, from the eight tires, he found 4 that rolled true and put them on the truck. That took care of the problem. How fortunate I was to have a dealer who was patient and truly interested in giving me a good product. I had to go back to the dealer 4 times to get it right and the dealer had to eat the labor cost for the last 3 trips. I sure hope this is not a sign of how well these tires will perform over the long haul. Really disappointed in Michelin quality control on this one.

I have had issues keeping ...

I have had issues keeping one of these tires in this particular set in balance so that has been a real pain. This is my 2nd set of this tire and that is the only complaint I have had with either sets of these tires. I will definately purchase these again.

Smooth, quiet ride with excellent wear!!

Currently have them on my F-250 diesel with 20,000 miles on them showing little signs of wear. Should be good for at least another 50,000 miles. I'm a contractor that puts about 40,000 miles per year on my truck and these tires have taken me coast to coast, Florida in the summer to Oregon in the winter with no problems. The ride is amazing with little or no road noise. My dad also runs these on his Grand Cherokee year round in Michigan and swears by them.

These tires are the best

I have 166,000 miles on my GMC Envoy and I have only used Michelin tires (2 sets, That's 85,000 miles for each set) I am going to buy another set before winter. They make the ride the best, and you cant beat the mileage you get on these tires. I have nothing but good things to say about Michelins.

A great tire would buy again

I purchased these set of tires when the other tires wore out. I have them on a half ton truck. They handle grrreat and they are lasting a long time. I keep the truck well service for allingmnents and rotation of them. Hardly any wear shown on these tires.

Third set of awesome tires.

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.

Great Tires

I recently bought four LT-MX tires for my 2011 Honda Pilot. The Honda dealer and tire dealer recommended the Latitude tire due to its smooth ride, comfort, mileage, and low noise. However, my occasional driving requires more grip, so I chose the LT-MX. My decision was largely based upon †he positive comments made by previous owners of these tires for similar vehicles and types of driving. I noticed an immediate difference in the ride from the original factory tires. The ride was smooth, steady, and not noisy at all. I plan on getting another set, when these tires are no longer serviceable.

Bad tire

I purchased 4 of 245/60/18 TX Radial X , M+S 105H on 10. 31, 2021 for Toyota Highlander. The date today is 10/17/2023. I have driven 20548 miles since my purchase and now it just got Blow out one of my front right side while driving on the Highway I almost lost the control of the car. I'm very disappointed with the reliability/wear of my Michelin tires. Needless to say, I could loss my live. And now I still have 3 more tires I do not feel safe to have.

great tire - would buy again

I've got 37 thousand miles on mine and plenty of tread left. The around town miles are pretty easy, but each weekend these tires see at least a hundred miles of Idaho back country dirt roads in the summer and plenty of snowy trips to the ski hill in the winter. A good bit of that is in 4WD, in places where you want the security of a high quality tire.

Good Tires

They are simply, very good all around tires. I had purchased 2 used LTX tires previously and I was shocked at how many miles I drove on them? So when I could afford to purchase new tires I got LTX and they have been great! they are quiet, ride well, good traction, I don't know what else I could say? I would buy them again.
