Excellent traction on the ...

Excellent traction on the hot Florida Highways and most of all in the Florida downpours. The tires that came on my 2003 Honda when new would slide when excelerating from a stopped or slow position, not so with my Michelins. I now feel safe and secure both on the Highway and off in Sun or Rain. When I lived in Connecticut I always prepared for the Winter & Snow Storms with a good set of dependable Michelins for my Lincolns as I had tried several other brands that did not perform near as well nor did the tread last near as long. I have felt Safe and Secure with my Michelins for over 25 years now. The couple of times I tried another brand or purchased a car with another brand I have always gone back to Michelin as the other brands that I have experienced can not compare. Michelin is Number 1 for my cars.

Guess Mine are Magnetic

Don't know how,don't know why....but I can't get these tires to last. I've used nothing but since buying my Ridgeline in 2006. Seems right after I get a new tire, it finds a new nail. My wife and I both travel the same roads ( we work at same place just different shifts ) different brand,no problems

Best Tire Period

I bought these tires for my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee. These are by far the best tires I have ever owned. They are a 5 star in every category. They ride like a dream and are super smooth and quiet. The traction in the rain is phenomenal. Absolutely no hydroplaning. They grip the road and don't budge no matter how wet the road is. I am more than anxious for the snow so I can see how they handle in snow. I average 75 - 80 mph and they just glide. No bumpy ride and definitely not noisy. I love these tires! Worth every penny!

I like the tire

I was having trouble with left turns in wet conditions with our 2005 Chevy Trailblazer. The tires on the vehicle would not grip the pavement in this turn. This is the third set of tires for the vehicle and I no longer am having the car slip in wet conditions. I am in need of replacement tires on my Chevy Impala soon and will most likely use a Michelin for this vehicle as well.

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.

Been traveling 12 states for 27 years. LTX radials are the only tire for me and my family. When it comes to comfort, handling and overall security your vehicle is only as good as the rubber that meets the road. I have taken all of my new cars straight to the Michelin dealer to have oe tires replaced with LTX. "Theres no ride like the Michelin Ride"

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.

One of the best I ever owned!

Had a severe problem with handling & sway with the OEM tires. When I had a sidewall blow out I decided on replacing all 4 tires. I did so with your product & haven't regretted my decision since. A great product with a great company that I've come to trust for both reliability & safety.

My originals lasted for 90K miles

These tires were original equipment for my 2009 Honda. My current ones have 90k miles and are finally being replaced. Super traction in the snow, I never had a problem, and I live in NE. That is 5 hard winters of driving and I can count on one hand the number of times my vehicle traction control actually came on. Remarkable. Another storm coming, time for some new sneakers for the truck.

Awful

We have bought Michelin tires for our vehicles for years because we thought they were the best. Not these. And they were not cheap. I have hated these tires since they were put on my vehicle. I feel like I have a ride like Fred Flintstone. Yaba daba do!
