Gas Mileage Increased

In over 55 years of driving, I have owned at least 25 cars. I have driven in tough road conditions, but was never as confident as I am now with the LTX M/S Michelins on my 4-Runner. The road noise is very low, the ride is smooth, and my gas mileage went up by 2 mpg, or 10%! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these tires to anyone.

I would definately buy these tires again

I now have over 75,000 miles on these tires and they're still in good shape. They are quiet and have never had any tire noise which seems to be more and more common these days. I will replace these tires when needed with the exact same ones and am certain I will have great service from them as well.

Best Tire Ever

Great tires! They are worth the couple of extra $ to move up to this grade of tire. Quiet and smooth ride. Outstanding handling in all road conditions including rain, snow and ice. Haven't found a thing that I don't like. I've recommended these tires to friends.

Had these tires on 2 SUVs ...

Had these tires on 2 SUVs (Suburban and Explorer) with similar results. Both vehicles handled like dreams even in snowy central New York winters. What topped it off was incredible mileage. I rotate tires regularly and check air pressure frequently but I wasn't expecting 60K+ miles from these 2 vehicles. OEM and other branded tires lasted 30-35K before requiring replacement. Overall, I would recommend to everybody!

The best truck tire on the market

I have owned several sets of these tires on various trucks and suv's. I can say that they are absolutely the best truck tire on the market. I consistently get 70-90k miles out of each set. Low noise and great handling. I could not ask for a better tire. I am now using a LTX2 set. I hope they are just as good or better than the original.

I purchased a used Ford ...

I purchased a used Ford Explorer 4x4 from a Ford dealer with a mis-matched set of tires. Knowing the vehicle was based on a truck platform, I still felt the highway ride should have felt better than what I was experiencing - loud tire whine,vibrations and a rough ride. I quickly replaced the OEM shocks which improved the ride somewhat, but it wasn't until I went to my Michelin dealer and he recommended the LTX M/S tires than I finally had the improvement I was looking for. After I replaced that mis-matched set of tires with the new Michelin LTX M/S's and drove it home, I thought my Explorer had been replaced with a look alike. I mean everything about the performance was dramatically improved! The ride was smooth with no tire whine and no more annoying vibration. It felt like the vehicle was finally gripping the road. And in the rain, it felt like I was riding on rails. Who knew tires would've made such a huge difference? I do now! I finally felt safe and secure, like I now had a vehicle that could take me anywhere. I'm a Michelin fan for life now! No other tires for me.

Motoring on Michelin Since 1960

We have been in business since 1933 and have used Michelin tires on our business vehicle since 1960 as well as a our personal vehicles. They have always exceeded our expectations regarding longevity, superior quality and excellent ride. Riding down the highway, little or no "tire noise". We carry a large amount of weight hauling our product. Michelin tires handle well with the load while still providing a smooth ride and safe braking.

No More Jeep Death Warble!!!

I have owned a 2005 Jeep Wrangler for the past five years, and I spent the first three years of that ownership living with what has been described in many online articles as the "Death Warble." The Death Warble would occur at almost anytime when the vehicle was making a slight turn and then encountered a sharp bump in the road, when traveling between 55 to 65 MPH. The front end of the vehicle would begin to shake violently, and begin loosing control. The only way to stop the shaking was to instantly slow the vehicle to 40 MPH, or flatten the accelerator to the floor. Neither option was popular with fellow drivers or the law enforcement community. So I repeatedly took the vehicle which had only 21,000 miles at the first occurrence back to the dealer, who suggested an extended warrantee, since I had purchased the vehicle used. I had the tires rotated, balanced, and the car aligned, all to no avail. I simply lived with the problem for another two years, until I just couldn't stand it any longer. Finally, at around 60,000 miles I decided it was time for new tires. I purchased four new Michelin LTX-MS tires after hours of online research for tires with a stiff sidewall, which I suspected might be the cause of my problem. I have now logged 30,000 miles on my new Michelins, and I have never once experienced the Death Warble again! Not only that, but I can now actually drive my Jeep comfortably on long trips due to the improvement in ride quality, and I'm getting better gas milage! What more can I say, except, "Well Done Michelin." You may have saved my live, and you most certainly improved the quality of it.

Very Dissappointed in these tires! Horrible Vibrations!

Michelin devotee for 30 years. Put these on my F250 truck to replace previous LTX/MS tires since these were no longer available and the new Defender line was touted as soooo much better. Immediately these tires shook my vehicle as though they were unbalanced. I had them rechecked for and they were properly balanced. Secondly, these tires also vibrate on paved roads as if they were knobby style tires or if the lug nuts were loose. They make it seem as though something is wrong with my vehicle.I hate these tires and now I'm stuck with them. I have less than 1000 miles on them.Not up to the quality of what Michelin has previously stood for.

Best tires out there!

I absolutely love these tires and honestly, I wouldn't put anything else on my vehicle. The lasts set I purchased lasted 9 years! No, o don't drive a lot, but I live in Charleston, SC, and the summer sun and sea breeze can wreck a good thing fast. These tires hold up!!! They have excellent traction and they are just glide down the road.
