I have owned 3 sets of these tires on a Dodge Dakota and a 2003 Ford Explorer Sporttrac ... when the factory tires are about half done, I just get a new set of the Michelins ... they are great in the wet (which is my main concern with these vehicles) also very good in the snow - I get about 75,000 miles of weat out of them ... when my 2009 Sporttrac needs new shoes (in the Spring) ... I will be looking for a set of Michelins

We have the Michelin LTX ...

We have the Michelin LTX 245/70-16 on a Nissan 4x4 Pathfinder that replaced the stock 255/65-16. Had the tires on the vehicle now for years and 40,000 miles. The tread looks like it will last another 40,000 miles and wears very even. The sidewalls are extremely rigid and must be puncture resistant. We live in a area with lots of potholes and new construction, so nails and debris is common on the road. My wife gets nail punctures very often and I don't so I have to think the deeper thread blocks and inner lining of the Michelins must have something to do with it. Where we live when it snows they don't clear the roads, so I only drive the Pathfinder then because the tires have really good grip on show and icy roads. They are way better than the OE tires, I am very impressed. If there is any negative complain I would say they do ride harder than the OE tires, they are very quiet but you do feel the road surface more.

Service Rating

When we purchased our new 2011 GMC Yukon we insisted and the dealer complied with our wish to replace the factory tires with Michelins. We just replaced the originals with slightly over 70,000 miles and could not have been more pleased with tires that were still quiet with a good ride and tread depth that would pass inspection. We chose to replace them at this time because we don't like running a tire that is getting close to minimum tread depth. This opinion is based on our driving on interstates at high speeds and in mountain terrain. We have years of experience using Michelins and would not consider another brand.

The LTX MS tires are an outstanding wet and winter driving tire. The dry weather driving is quiet and smooth. They are also a very good off road tire. I was very pleased with the performance of this tire no matter what the conditions were. This is a very good tire for my Ford Ranger.

Tough Tires

Completed a 17,000 trip to Northern Canada including Dempster Highway which is known to chew up tires. Did a tire rotation halfway through trip and they are still looking good with no abnormal tire wear or damage. Have purchased many Michelin tires over the years and they are the best in terms of coming close to advertised wear life but you do need need to keep them inflated properly, balanced and do the rotations on a regular basis.

Only Tire to Buy - Michelin

I have Dodge Durango with 221,000 miles on the odometer and I just mounted my THIRD set of MICHELIN LTX M/S tires on my vehicle at about 214,000 miles. With my first set of tires I replaced them with usable tread left after 90,000 miles because I didn't want to go through a Minnesota winter with them. My second set gave me a healthy 70,000 miles wear. These tires are great for all season driving; superb for wet and snow roads, very responsive, quite and comfortable (but they are mounted with Bilstein shocks). I've owned two Durangos before this one and it's the same story with Michelin tires - great mileage and great serviceability. My cars in the past have been Mercedes and Volvo's - and again the same story, great tires with long life and excellent performance a reliable and safe tire. Very best tire made for the general market. None better, worth every penny . . . don't hesitate: Need tires? Save time and just say, - - - MICHELIN.

Gas Mileage Increased

In over 55 years of driving, I have owned at least 25 cars. I have driven in tough road conditions, but was never as confident as I am now with the LTX M/S Michelins on my 4-Runner. The road noise is very low, the ride is smooth, and my gas mileage went up by 2 mpg, or 10%! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these tires to anyone.

They work in Warmer months

Have previously bought Michelin tires because they are pretty durable, the traction is decent and they're comfortable The handle isn't as great on my truck so I may need to look at different brands but they do work and get the job done in the summer months. But when the winter comes I have to make sure that I have a year-round tire with really good tread

Great Tires

I bought a used Honda Ridgeline in 2008 that had these tires. About 200k miles and 4 sets of tires later, I am looking for another set of these tires. I average about 600 miles a week and living in Colorado I see all kinds of inclement weather and road conditions (even dirt!). These tires have saved my life more than once. Highly recommended! Long life and great traction in all kinds of conditions. And doing a ton of hi-speed (avg 80mph) driving, these tires spin smooth and I have no complaints on road noise.

I mounted these tires on a 2008 Chevrolet Suburban. The ride is incredibly smooth. I have been a loyal Michelin customer for just about as long as I have been buying tires. These tires provide the ride and durability I have come to expect from the Michelin Man.
