Last week I had 4 new defender ltx tires mounted and balanced (P265/60r18). About 100 miles later the whole rear end of my truck now shakes like crazy when traveling between 55-60mph. I drove right back and they tell me that my rear 2 tires have "factory defects". I'm having them replaced tomorrow.

Just bought these Defenders . My 2011 Ford f150 never rode so smooth ! Excellent in the rain and man talk about an improved ride. It's literally like a different truck. They are without a doubt the best tires I ever owned ! The best money I ever spent ! I never do reviews but went out of my way to do complete this one. You truly only get what you pay for. I am 67 years young and these are the BEST !!!!

I bought these tires because someone told me they had a good ride. I found out later that they pull good in the light mud, light snow. I have had them on my truck now for over 50,000 miles and still have about 20,000 miles left. I am currently looking at a set for my Jeep. I wish all tires lasted as long as these.

I have always been a Michelin fan. The recent set of LTX's were installed at time of vehicle purchase in 2019 and got me 90,000 miles. I purchased a new set in May of 2022, they have roughly 10k miles on them. After the first rotation they began to howl. I expected a little but not like this. I took the vehicle to point of purchase and inquired about the noise. We rotated front to back but the noise remains. It's been too long and too many miles for a tire adjustment from the store so i'm about to pay additional money to swap out the tires for a new set but after reading other reviews about the noise i'm afraid my money will not be well spent. To me it seems Michelin's improvement to an already great tire is ruining my enjoyment of driving and the security of riding on the best. Not sure what to buy now.

I'm 69 and have used Michelins exclusively for as long as I can remember. We have 2 vehicles, a1996 Ford F-150 and a 1997 Ford Expedition. These vehicles have a combined mileage of close to 400,000 and have been Michelin equipped since new. The tires wear like iron and yet offer an extremely comfortable and quiet ride, providing superior wet weather driveability.

I bought this set of four tires in 2007 for my Explorer at 91, 000 miles. Through rain, snow, hot summers, and dirt roads, they have held up well and done what they were designed to do. Tomorrow, I'll be getting a new set of Michelins (LTX MS 2 s) for the same rig at 162000 miles. They've been good tires. Held up well and are worth the money. Michelin has had a good reputation since forever and I work too hard for my cash to spend it on anything not holding up. These tires probably could go another 10,000 (rotated regularly), but they don't owe me a thing and I'm happy to replace them with another solid set. Thanks for not pushing junk on the market and having a quality product.

These are the best all season tires I've owned! have had them on my F150 for 2 years now and still have plenty of tread - Amazing traction in the Colorado snow/ice! I also tow a trailer and they are sturdy built tires! I don't understand how anyone can complain of these being a noisy tire in the reviews that I read. They are an extremely quite and comfortable ride even at 80psi when towing (275/70/18 E 10ply tires) Would buy them again!

The Jeep needed new shoes. What to do? Read reviews. Look at tires. Kick some of them. And then buy a set of Michelin LTX M/S. This Jeep doesn't do soccer games, but it does do snow -- wet, deep and powder plus all conditions inbetween. No wonder Eskimos have so many names for snow! The LTX tread pattern combined with siping provided a great balance in all those conditions, plus forays into some fairly serious rocky off-road trails with nary a slip. They are predictible in the twisties and quiet on freeway concrete, even with rain-groves. The wear-bars are starting to peek through and soon fall will be coming -- and the Jeep is getting some new shoes. Another set of LTXs, size 245/65-17

I installed a set of Michelins on my pickup when the original tires wore out at about 64,000 miles (I'm not a "hard driver", so I tend to get good mileage out of tires). I drove that set of Michelins for approximately 65,000 miles. These Michelins now have only 8,000 miles on them, but they are as excellent as the previous set. I bought my first set of Michelins in 1971, and with only one exception, I've bought only Michelins since then--and I've never had a faulty Michelin tire.

Tires are very quiet, wear like iron, and have awesome grip. I see all weather conditions in Illinois and every vehicle I own now has Michelin tires on it. I've had a few other brands over the years, but I'm convinced Michelin makes the best. They are definitely worth the extra money!
