Long time believer

A few years back, I kept replacing the tires on my Tahoe every 20-30K miles then a friend told me about Michelin tires. I now have Michelins on all my vehicles not only they ride super in wet or dry conditions but they last upwards of 60K miles. The savings and the security is worth every penny threefold. Thanks Michelin for putting out a product that lasts while giving a great performance and security for my family.

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.

Worth Every Penny

I have bought these same tires for almost ten years and they have been worth every penny, every time. Knowing my wife and children are counting on the tires to perform I spent a little more and get so much more. I don't worry about tire performance with these Michelin LTX M/Ss on my SUV. If you are wondering if it is worth it, go for it.

One of the best sets I've owned

Bought these tires 60k+ miles ago. Been very happy with them. We have used them in snow, ice, rain, dirt and dry desert roads. Family camping trips, cross country road trips and daily drives. They have held up great. I'm on here planning ahead for my next set, so figured I'd leave a review.

Will never buy a different tire!

I got these in 2018, they've been through 6 seasons now. I'll never buy another tire; these are amazing. We have seriously hot summers and seriously cold winters here in the Badlands; temperatures go from +110 to -40. The Defenders haven't even blinked. Snow, ice, off-road, deep mud, highway; they're a great ride with great traction. They're not the quietest tire; then again, if you want a serious all-season tire and tread, noise is something you learn to live with. Quiet tires can't grip for anything. I'm sorry so many others have had issues; these tires have never let me down. I'm hoping they'll still be this good when I need another set.

REALLY loud! from a Michelin fan

My 2003 Lexus LX470 has 195,000 miles on it, all with Michelin tires. I installed these Michelin Defender LTX on it, they sound like I'm driving a monster truck. Ride is fine, noise is so unbearable my wife won't drive the vehicle anymore. Wish I could get my old Michelins back.

I live in northern Maine ...

I live in northern Maine and installed these on my Jeep Wrangler in late summer. The interstate up here has some very deep grooves in the road and hydroplaning is an issue in even moderate rain. The tires performed very well going through the pooled water on the roadway as I never felt any loss of traction with the road surface. Winter is just starting but for the first couple of storms and icy conditions that were left behind the tires again performed well. I already have about 8,000 miles on them and they are wearing just fine so far. I would definitely purchase these again.

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.

You make a GREAT tire!!!

My first set of this tire lasted through 130,000 miles and I am now on my second set of the same one. Traction in snow is far beyond reasonable expectation...they are reasonably quiet and comfortable...the best I can find for my Explorer. What more can I say? I have absolutely no complaints and have even convinced my wife to put Michelins on her Honda.

LXMS TIRES

The first set of michelin tires on my vehicle lasted seven years. They were still in good condition (no stress lines or marks), so much that the tire dealer wanted to know if I really wanted to get new ones. He said they would be sold as used tires quickly because they were still in good condition. The second set of michelin tires on my vehicle lasted nine years. I just got new ones this year. The old ones taken off had a few stressed lines. Overall the tires were still in good condition. Michelin tires are the only ones I will purchase to put on my vehicle. They are the best! They have long ware, good balance, smooth drive, and overall trouble free. I love my michelin tires! They give me great service for years! It is what I need, excellent quality for my money.
