Best Passenger Vehicle Tire Out There

Hands down, these are the best tires on the market for passenger vehicles. I've had these tires on 3 different vehicles now. 2 pickups and an SUV. Excellent traction, very smooth ride, and great durability. Provides confidence when on snow, ice, water or other slippery surfaces. Until one of these fails me prematurely, I will never put a different tire on any of my vehicles.

Second Try with Michelin

I purchased the predecessor (Non Defender) LTX M/S tires about 2.5 years ago. Warranty was for 70,000 miles but I only made it to 47,000 miles and was at or below the wear bars. Tires were rotated and balanced every 7500 miles. I did get credit back for the shortfall in mileage and now have the Defender tires on my truck. Hopefully this time they will make it to the 70K. Pretty disappointed in the fact that my first set of Michelin's did so poorly. Truck is just a daily driver not used for work. Tires performed well but 47K is not even close to the warranty.

Great tire for small SUV/Crossover

I've been waiting for some ice and snow to test these little babies! We got it now, here in Montana!! At first, I was concerned that these tires would be too noisy or reduce fuel economy too much on my 2013 RAV 4. Totally unfounded!! These seem to be great tires here in snow country! The rubber compound seems soft and tacky in the cold temps, and seems to grip the roadways better. Braking in snowy/icy conditions feels strong and I just plowed thru 9" fresh snow confidently They give me a soft, comfortable ride on the hiway. I am totally pleased with my purchase so far (about 1500 miles on them) and plan to put a set on our Honda CRV.

Love'm

Best tires I've ever purchased! I put them on both of my Tacomas and I'm on my second set on my current daily driver. I get close to 100k miles on each set. Yes, I rotate them and run the appropriate tire pressure as scheduled. The handling of my truck in adverse weather is so much better with my Michelin Defender LTX M/S...even in hurricane rain they grip the road while other vehicles are hydroplaning

Round Tires

My second set of Michelin LTX's. Michelin tires ride nice and quiet. They are round. Truck owners and 4x4 owners will have to use less weights to balance over sized tires because the quality control at Michelin does a better job of making sure the tires are round and balanced better right from the factory. Other tire manufacturers don't come close ! Thank you for making a quality product that I can easily expect to get 60k miles on, just like the set before this.

Set 4 and only getting better

Excellent tire. Great for holding down cost of long distance commuting. Been driving on Michelin tires for 40 years and they just keep getting better. I don't even look at other brands when replacing and won't buy a new car unless it comes with Michelins. Just took off my last LTX's at 73,000 miles and probably could have gone to 80K before getting to the wear bar but, the rainy season is just around the corner and I really wanted the tread depth back. Used to live up North and these LTX's were great in the snow too. Truly the best all-round tire. And, they're round so, none of the wump wump wump you here with some other brands.

Second time...just as charming.

Following my fathers advice, who is a professional tour bus driver, I have purchased Michelin tires for my families cars for 30 years. My latest set replace M/S LTX that just passed 75,000 miles. If not for the toe being out a bit on my car, I might have managed another 5,000+ miles. Stoked!!

Defender LTX M/S

Quieter and smoother ride than the Factory OE tires which didn't last as long as I thought they would. Better grip in wet/snowy conditions than I expected.

Excellent tires

I have had Michelin tires on 3 of my last vehicles and they have all been excellent in all kind of weather and conditions. They have a long tire wear and good grip on snow and ice.
