Smooth and Quiet - Excellent Traction

Smooth and Quiet - Excellent Traction Just put a set on my wife's Grand Cherokee Ltd. . So far, excellent handling on any road type, quiet and secure feeling while driving at any speed. Have M/S's on my Commander and love them too. Best tire for endurance, range and quality for the price.

Will NOT Balance... and keep getting worse!

I have been buying Michelin LTX tires for many years now too include the MS/2 version. Without hesitation the LTX MS/2 were the best tires I have ever seen put on a truck. However with the advent of their new Defender series, I can honestly say they are the worst LTX tires they have ever made, they just will not balance out, the more I drive them the more they shake and shimmy. Last pair of LTX MS/2 had 115,000 miles on them, my 2002 Z71 Tahoe... LT285/70/17. The old tires had a better ride than the new tires do, (Defenders)... Shame, time to find another tire and manufacturer, never thought I would be saying that about the LTX Dave

Second Set and still loving them

I have driven on a lot of tires and none compare to these on my truck. Rated at 70,000 miles and I got more than that out of first set and am working on 50,000 on the second and last check only half worn. They not only wear well they give me a smooth quiet ride on the highway. I didn't buy my Honda Ridgeline for off reading so these are perfect for my needs. Thanks Michelin for building such a great tire. I will definitely be using these again on my truck!

I bought a truck that had ...

I bought a truck that had been parked for awhile and needed tires. It had 65,000 miles on it. I knew I wanted Michelins based on the reputation of their tires. I had Michelins put on the truck and it now has 130,412 miles on it with the same tires and I really don't need to replace them yet! I have not had a flat tire or any other problem with them. I will replace them soon just for safety but I will definitely replace them with Michelins. In fact, as long as I'm driving, my vehicle will have nothing but Michelins on it. I feel very safe knowing that's what is on my vehicle and in my opinion, they are the best tire available.

Great Ride and Long Tread Life

I have used Michelin tires on my trucks for 15 years or more. I tried other brands and most of them would not ride smooth for any length of time. Michelin tires always run smooth and don't bounce. I pull a travel trailer many times a year with some trips coast to coast and never worry about tire failure running Michelin and always have a smooth ride. These tires always last at least 60,000 miles and have never had a flat with them. I will be converting my Honda Accord to Michelin within the next month to finally get a smooth ride. Love my Michelin tires!!

I have not driven that ...

I have not driven that many miles on my new tires, yet. However, to date they have provided a comfortable ride and good gas mileage. When I first saw the tires, I note\iced that the tread was more "aggressive" than the tires I replaced. I was somewhat fearful that this tread might result in poorer gas mileage, but to date this has not occurred. In fact, I seem to be getting slightly better mileage.

Tire vibration is bad

I have about 30,000 miles on these tires. I previously had 2 sets of LTX M/S 2 tires and they were great. I have never been able to get these tires to balance properly. On certain road surfaces, these tires vibrate and make the steering wheel shake. It's not all roads and not always at the same speeds. I will not buy these again. Please build the LTX M/S 2 again.

Best light truck general purpose tire available

I have had 5+ sets of these on 2 different suburbans, 1) f150 std cab longbox, 1) Chevrolet dually cab-chassis with dump and snow-plow, and now on my '14 Superduty Kingranch. If my continued patronage of this specific tire doesn't speak volumes, I don't know what..I am in Wisconsin, and snow and ice traction are important. These tires are excellent in snow and ice, without quick wear like a winter tire 80k/set. Ride comfort is outstanding. I replaced the Michelin AT tires with these on the superduty, and they are 10 times better for traction and comfort. If you are wondering if these tires are worth the extra money, they absolutely are!

Durable tires!

We do a lot of traveling on the road as a family. I also uae my suv for work. Ibought the tires three years ago and the tread has really held up to the demands I have put on them. I feel I have really made an investment buy buying these tires as I have about 50, 000 miles on them and they still perform like they did when I first bought them. There is nothing negative to say about these tires and I will buy them again in the future. Thanks Michelin!!!

This is a truck tire, not a luxury tire

I purchased these for a 2018 Lincoln Navigator. However, road noise was persistent over 40 mph, the tires felt relatively unstable at highway speeds, and tracking wasn't linear. These are great truck tires, but I found them unsuitable for a luxury SUV. I returned the Defender LTX M&S 2 tires for a set of CrossClimate2 and am more than pleased.
