Just put on our third set ...

Just put on our third set of these tires on our 2002 Highlander. We live in the mountains of western NC and my wife would not have any other tires on her car. We are at 3,700 feet, so we do get the snow and ice. These tires have been really good for us.

Love these tires!!

I have had such great luck with all of the Michelin tires I have ever bought. These tires hold up very well to all types of road conditions. I feel confident in driving any of our vehicles when I put Michelin tires on them in all types of weather conditions. The light truck tires I most recently bought have done very well on less than great road conditions. I am a customer of Michelin tires for life!!!!

I'm a Michelin customer for life!

Have always had excellent results with these tires.good traction and wear characteristics and never any issues with tread life and no issues with any set I've ever purchased! I've always preferred Michelin over other brands and will be a customer for life!

I would buy this tire again,

just got the tires for my Suv and its been a month they seem to do a fine job getting through the snow , stopping and starting is a breeze. I never paid attention to the performance of a tire, but after go through my 4th set on the same suv I thought I would try a different type and so far I love em.

First Dissapointment

Been using Michelin tires for about 15 years and this is the first time I've been disappointed. Only got 3 years and 30K miles out of these before they were worn to 3/32. I expected them to last longer, but they actually wore out quicker than the Primacys I used to use.

Disappointed

My first set of Michelins ( I am 62 yrs old ) Defender LTX M/S. Everything was great around town and local roads. Then I took a trip to Los Angeles. The rain grooves cut in the freeway caused this model tire to wander and follow the grooves. This was a very uncomfortable feeling. It was constant steering wheel adjustments. I guess the wrong tire for my truck.

Excellent Service LTX MS

The LTX MS are the best tires I have ever used in my 28 year driving experience in terms mileage and overall performance. They could be a little quieter. The tires were the original equipment for my 2009 Honda Ridgeline. I am now on 97,500 miles and the tires have not yet reached the wear indicators. I must admit that I am driving 80% highway in Florida and the tires are not being abused by offroad and winter conditions. Handling is great and you could not expect a better performance on wet roads including summer tropical down pours that we experience in Florida. Great product.

After driving on Michelin ...

After driving on Michelin LTXs for the past 12 years I can honestly say that no other tire comes close in wear, durability, traction, comfort, and minimal road noise. One time, I switched to a competitor's tire because it was rated higher in braking and in wet traction. That competitor's tire was rated for 60,000 miles and at 25,000 miles they had to be replaced due to wear. I have consistently gotten 60,000 miles out of a set of Michelin LTX's with rotations and balancing every 6,000-9,000 miles. There is no other tire manufacturer making a tire that is comparable to the LTX in longevity. The only area the LTX is slightly weak would be in muddy conditions, although driving in muddy condition is not an everyday occurrence. I will continue to buy Michelin LTX tires "because so much is riding on my tires". Thank you for making a superior product.

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.

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.
