I happy with Brand Michelin Defender LTX m/s tires so far that is for Spring to Fall season only and I use other tires like Motomaster tires for winter season and work well for me to driving it I will keep eye on tires and how driving condtion goes and so far is good and its very new Michelin defender LTX M/S (4) tires last Spring 2019 and this going to be 2nd use next year 2020 so I let everyone know its all good overall rating be 4 and if next year 2020 season is still good I will then rating star 5

Prior to installing these tires, my vehicle hydroplaned several times, even at fairly low speeds, when the road was only moderately wet. My previous tires were only a year old, but I replaced them with these Michelins, due to the poor traction. That was 2 years ago and I haven't hydroplaned since, no matter what the weather conditions or driving speed. Additionally, these Michelins have been left on year-round during that time. They perform great in mud, rain and snow, both on the highway, and off-road. They've also been used extensively in hot, dry weather at highway speeds. I've driven across the country on them twice, and they still don't show any excessive wear. These are good safe tires, and the price was more than fair, considering the safety and function they've provided.

from 1989 to present i have used 48each of these tires on two Dodge3500 duallys traveling from Cabo San Lucas Mexico to Anchorage Alaska and throughout the Western and Mid Western states. The truck was loaded with a 5,000 Lance camper and trailed boats from 17 to 22 feet. Great tires !!

I have had many sets of Michelin tires. (Probably close to 8.) Only 2 bad tires they replaced without issue. I have these tires on my wife's Sequoia and my mother's 4 runner. Excellent tires on them. I bought these for my 2020 F250. These are HORRIBLE at throwing rocks! The grooves in the center of the tire (there's 5 of them if I recall) love to grab rocks from gravel driveway/roads and kick them up on my truck. These would hold rocks even at high speed and eject them when doing 80 mph on freeway. I have no idea why those grooves need to be so wide on a highway tire??

In 45 years of owning vehicles these are probably the best tires I have ever owned. First I did my research before buying these tires. Along with some other traits, I really wanted a tire with good traction for the snow and ice I experience in Michigan as well as decent rolling resistance so that I would still get good fuel economy with our hybrid electric vehicle. I also wanted a quieter tire and this is difficult to find with a mud and snow tire. I narrowed it down to this Michelin and another name brand tire. After discussing this with my auto mechanic brother he said hands down get the Michelin! I have had these tires on our Hybrid Electric All Wheel Drive Escape for 5 1/2 years now and they have been amazing! Smooth riding and quiet with good rain, snow and ice traction. What has been truly amazing is the tire wear. I have had them on my vehicle for over 6 years and 100000 miles now and am not to the wear bars yet. I honestly think I could safely get another 20000 miles before needing to replace them. FYI, I once had some Uniroyal tires that had 80000 miles with tread still left but they lost all grip as the tires had solidified into a hard plastic like compound. These Michelins are still pliable and get very good traction! Just a reminder that in order to maximize performance and longevity, suspension components such as ball joints and shock absorbers need to be kept in good working order and the wheel alignment needs to be in spec and the tires inflated properly and rotated (being an automotive test engineer I know better and rotate front to rear only and do so every 10000 miles at most).

I have purchase nothing but Michelin's for my 2001 mdx and 2005 tacoma. Always used the "lattitude tour" version and loved them. Probably went through a total of 5 or 6 sets. Now discontinued I went with the defender LTX on my tacoma. They are very noisy. I have to turn up my radeo at 35 MPH. yes, they handle great, but I can't stand the noise. Now my mom needs a set of tires for her 2013 avalanche and I am not sure what to do. Any suggestions?

I have own so many tires and yet nothing like Michelin tires. My tires is right now @72000miles on it and tread looks like a new. Rotating every 5000miles most important to keep your tired last long but still the tires is #1 on my list now. I would never buy any other tires. Most other tires I own never lasted that mileage said. I wold have replaced once already and even I thought Michelin was expensive, it pays itself as I'm saving the money after all. I convinced my girlfriend to get one too and she has not complain. That has to say something. I did right and Michelin done right. I don't think you will sorry for spending extra money upfront...

Have you had tires that did not last? Have you paid for tires that did not perform? Have you heard from a salesperson that told you how great a tire was and find out that the quality was below standard. Forturnate I experiance all of these early in life and fortuantely I bought my first Michelin tire also early in my life. I have bought only Michelin tires since I was 21 and I am 64 now. With the proper care (inflation, rotation, etc.) these tires on the average have lasted longer than the advertised rating and their tread life has been execeptional. Quality control is also outstanding as I have never had to return a tire for any type of blemish or related problem which is very important from a safety point of view. I am a long time owner of these tires as well as all of my familty who continue to rack up the miles and who contiue to experice the same satifaction and trust with the Michelin brand.

Only tires for my Ford F-350. Best tire that provides handling, traction, mileage and apperance for my truck. Worth every penny to know that they will preform in all situation that I'll take my truck. Drove in a heavy down pour towing my fifth wheel camper with no problems at all. Looking forward to a long service life from these tire because the last set had over 60,000 on them and I have them saved for a quick spare if one of these new ones failed.

I replaced these same tires on my 2012 Toyota Highlander; this time, they are so loud that you cannot hear the radio. What is the difference from when I bought these tires 3 1/2 years ago? I figured it was just me but now my wife and son-in-law have driven the car and everyone has the same complaint It was too loud. You notice it at about 35 MPH and up. I have these same tires on my 2015 Tacoma Truck and don't have this noise at all. Is there a chance these are mounted wrong?
