My first set of Michelins weren't purchased by me new. I traded for a used Ford Bronco that had a set of MTX's on it that had 60,000 miles already on the tires. They were still in great shape and I decided to drive on them until I needed new tires. Well, I drove the wheels off of that Bronco and even after I put another 60,000 miles on the Michelins I was amazed that they were still in pretty good shape. Since then, I have always bought Michelins. They may cost a little extra when purchased but they will outlast two sets of the other national brands. Now I tell all my friends, "Forget the rest, buy the Michelins!"

The vehicle that the tires are used on is primarily my wife's car. She is a nurse who works the night shift (12hrs) and drives at night and in the early morning hours. My chief priorty is for her safety which I believe is provided through the great road handling abilities of the Michelin tires. In Oregon during the winter months we have a substantial amount of rain and the Michelin tires are designed to easily disperse the water off the edge of the tires. Because of this safety feature there is less likelihood of hydroplaning, especially when it is dark out and you can't see the standing water on the freeway or surface streets. Also because of this design feature, it eleminates the necessity of going to the additional expense of having the tire sipped. There was also a noticeable difference in the handling and performance of the Michelin tires. For safety, performance, and comfort you won't find a better tire in the industry. Period!

Installed on my new 2012 Chevy Conversion Van. I put 20,000 Miles on since last Aug 22nd. Did a long trip tp CA. DROVE 10,000 Miles. Tire looks great on my van they really fill the wheel well. The ride was great and they still look like new. Very satisfied with this tire and will buy them again.

Back in 2005, I bought a set of these tires for my Honda Element. At the time the odometer was at 50,000 miles. Now I am looking at tires again for the same vehicle, which is why I am even on this website. I now have 140,000 miles on the Element. 90,000 miles on a set of tires can't be beat. I will definitely stick with Michelin!

I have been in the automotive business for 24 years and seen all brands and makes of tires. Michelin tire outride and outlast all other brands. Of all the tire failures I have seen in that time I can count on one hand the number of Michelin tires that have failed pretty remarkable.

A year ago, my 2008 F150 needed new tires. The original tires were 255/65-17 but Michelin had none in inventory and none scheduled to be produced so I had bought the 265/65-17. The tires have great road handling grip as was illustrated a short time after the purchase. During a rainstorm on an isolated two lane black-top, they helped me avoid a head-on collision when a car crossed into my lane and just kept coming despite my flashing headlights and blasting of the horn. I had two of my 14 year olds with me and since there were no other cars on the road, we quickly swerved to the left as the "distracted driver" flew past us in our lane at 70+ mph. I immediately thanked the Lord for the new Michelins and our safety. Today, after 16,000 miles the tread-wear has worn from 13/32" to 10/32" so I expect to get around 60,000 miles and about 3 more years from this set.

Defender is a great tire, could not have picked a better day to replace my Wanglers. Felt like I was driving a different truck with the Michelins final on, quite, good control, ride that feels like your floating. Only draw back to me I always felt like I was driving 10 MPH slower. Had to keep my eye on speed until I adjust to them. Highly recommend.

I replaced the almost worn out tires on the used vehicle I purchased thirteen years ago with a set of Michelin LTX M/S. They have performed flawlessly in all kinds of weather in city, highway and trailer towing conditions. The vehicle just turned over 200,000 miles, which would be over 132,000 miles on these tires, and they still have a little tread left. I'm donating the car, but will make sure my next set of tires are Michelins.

We drive the 1250 Km back and forth to Florida each year. How many times on the I75 did I say ‘thank you Michelins' when swerving around tire debris, road kill and pot holes, at 80 mph. Thankfully, conditions were good. But they are the best tires I can buy. Again, ‘thank you Michelins'.

Safety, reliability, long lasting, good value are the things I look for in my tires. I have tried less expensive tires in the past and regretted that choice. Peace of mind at not having to worry about my tires when I am driving and not having to buy new tires for a long time. Knowing I have one of the best tire choices on my vehicle, then I can think about the rest of the choices I have to make in my life. I have been a happy Michelin man for many years.
