LTX M/S on my old Suburban

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.

Weak sidewall

I sliced the side wall open while driving on hard top on a pice of lumber at low speed. Only 12,000 K on the set. Now wether to replace two or all four as its a 4X4. Disappointing, good fuel economy and ride though. Maybe I would have better luck with AT/2? Its the sort of failure I associate with off road use.

Simply the best all season tires.

We have been driving with MICHELIN LTX MS for a long time.They are quite riding, long lasting with good fuel mileage. Excellent in rain and snow but not icey roads. I have used them year round with no problems and we get a lot of snow. But we do prefer studded tires for icey roads.

Great ride

My OEM tires on my Toyota Highlander still had about another 5,000 or so miles on them but as we were about to go on a road trip I thought it would be a good time to buy new and I'm glad I did. I went with the Michelins because I know that I can expect great performance and longevity. We drove from Florida to North Carolina in October, drove the Blue Ridge Parkway and beyond, totaling 2,500 miles. The Highlander handles great on the twists and turns of the parkway. One difference I noted compared to the old tires was that I felt we were part of the road rather than riding on top of it. The grip and feedback were fantastic. The only negative maybe was that I thought they were just a little high priced for tires made in Mexico but still, I was very happy with my purchase.

Unbelieveable

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

Exceeded the warranty!!!

I bought these tires and regulary aired and rotated them per the manufactures recomendations. The tires exceeded the waranty by 14,000 miles. I will never by another tire. The tires are quite on the roads and highways and grip well in all weather. I am now on my second set and they are performing well. I own a 3/4 ton pickup and regularly tow and haul heavy loads. Michelin knows tires and they have a customer for life. Keep up the good work Michelin.

Smooth As Silk!!!

These tires have given me the best ride and fuel savings on my Lincoln Avaitor. When we purchase our Lincoln it already had Mchelin tires on it. The tires had 31000 and lasted another 15000. This is our 3rd set of Michelins and we now have 130000 on our car and it still rides like it new. Thank you Michelin for making the best tires money can buy.

Going to give them another chance

The tires are quiet and give a good ride. However, after 4.5 yrs and 38K miles, two of them are dry rotting and the tread is almost gone off of the other two. I sliced one open around some road construction so I am going to buy another set and see if this was just a fluke. I have had success with past Michelin tires, my last set lasted 80k miles.

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.

Best tire for ride and mileage period.

I have used LTX M/S on both of my trucks and have been very pleased with the ride and quality of the tire. I get more mileage out of these tires than any other brand of tires. I have been running these tires for years and will not buy any other tire. Very pleased.
