I bought my Chevy Tahoe ...

I bought my Chevy Tahoe new in 2005. The dealer had 20" wheels & tires on this vehicle, when I bought it. I put 2 sets of tires on it, & the last set I refused to go with anything but Michelins. What's the saying? "If Momma ain't happy, nobody's happy" Well this Momma is very happy & content!!!!!

Long tread life and great traction

Have had these Michelins for about 2 years and they have performed very, very well. They ride smooth and quiet. They are wearing very well and still have a lot of tread on them. The wet weather grip is excellent, a big plus for me. A lot of tires may grip well in dry weather. The tire that grips well in wet conditions is the one I need, and the Michelins come through like the true winner they are when the conditions are nasty outside. The handling is very good too. I would definitely buy another set of these. I recommended them to my son and he put a set on his vehicle. He is very pleased with them as well. A great all around tire.

In 2002 I purchased a 1995 Suburban 2500 series with a diesel engine. I soon put on a set of 275-16 LTX Michelin tires. I now have 112,000 miles on these tires and there is still tread left. I will be getting new ones before long, but what is ironic, is that the lady that I purchased the Suburban from said that the reason she was selling it was because it wore out tires so quickly. I'm sure that a lot of the longivity can be attributed to driving habits, but the Michelin tires have performed exceptionally as well.

I am using on a Mercedes ML 320 CDI This is all wheel drive and they are not wearing smooth,I think I will go to the Lattude type next. I believe I bought the wrong tire for the vechicle. I thought they were the quiest tires ever until the first rotation and then they begin to roar and wear uneven, they are good tires but I think they are more for a truck.

15k so far and excellent

We bought two sets of these tires about 15 months ago. The Michelin Defender LTX are wonderful tires for my wife’s 2011 Odyssey van and my 2009 Acura MDX suv. Have road tripped them both 1000’s of miles and they are smooth and quiet and are also great around town whether wet or dry. I took the Acura to the Rocky Mountains and these tires inspire great confidence even through a foot of fresh snow. And quiet on the highway (less than 68db). Plus the 18” version of these tires have 12/32 of tread when new, so they are going to last a long time. Much better for a heavy van and SUV than the “regular” Defenders IMO, since those are built for lighter cars, while the LTX version is for heavier ones like a loaded down minivan (well north of 5500 pounds when loaded with 6 people, 2 dogs, and tons of luggage). Don’t be turned off by the LTX version for your minivan or luxury SUV. They look cool too, are built for a heavy vehicle, and are still super smooth. I have about 15k miles so far on the Acura MDX’s tires. Just drove it 2500 miles round trip with the LTX tires to the Colorado mountains and back through all types of weather: dry and smooth interstate as well as blinding snow a foot deep. They were super smooth and quiet crossing Kansas on the interstate, and never slipped in the Colorado snow. Could not be more pleased. I would recommended this version of tire over the regular Defender for heavier vehicles, since I would not have thought about an LTX tire since one normally thinks about a pickup for an LTX tire. The tires have stayed 100% balanced (as all Michelin tires do!) and wear evenly. Kudos to Michelin for engineering a great tire for all the family vans and SUVs out there.

Excellent Tire!

We own 3 vehicles (1 truck & 2 SUV's) & use the Michelin LTX M/S on all of them. We rotate them every 6,000 - 8,000 miles & have always gotten many more miles out of them than is listed. The LTX M/S is outstanding in the snow! We live in a rural area with lots of hills & curves. My husband's job requires him to be on the road before snow plows ever clear our back roads & he loves the traction they provide. Very smooth ride too!

I perchased the Michelen LTX M/S tires for my 2002 Chevrolet Suburban in 2006 after getting 50,000 miles on the origenal set.I truely could not beleave the differance in the way my suburban handled and the ride was better than when I perchased it in 2002. I now have 105,000 miles my suburban an the tires still handle great. I now have 65,000 miles on them and feel I can still get another 10 to 20 thousand miles on them.I feel that that is excellient for a large SUV. I will diffenitley replace them with a new set again.

Smooth Ride

Replaced all 4 tires on my 2020 Odyssey about 7 weeks ago. Did a lot of “research” / read a lot of websites before settling on them. Was concerned about a possible drop in MPG. Haven’t experienced that, and they ride so smooth I forgot what the original tires felt like. I would definitely buy these again.

103,000 miles and counting

This tire came standard with my new Ford Econoline van in 2006, and are still serving well at 103,000 miles. I may replace them before winter, but there is still good tread remaining, and the sidewalls look like new! They are quiet, reliable, and good looking.

Excellent

Best tire brand ever. I've purchased at least 5 sets over the years. It started when I couldn't get the vibration out one of my trucks, my tire guy said try Michelin tires. That solved the issue and I got 90000 miles out of that set. It's the only tire I'll ever buy for safety and peace of mind.
