I just returned from an off road trip in the PA mountains with a couple of Jeep buddies. It had rained and snowed the day prior and I was expecting to have trouble driving the logging trails with these tires. I was pleasntly supprised with the performance under these conditions. Granted these are not full off road tires but, I went thru alot of muddy, steep elevation changes with no traction problems. The tow ropes stayed in the Jeep. I use these tires for 99% on road use and they provide great mileage with a confortable ride. I was just suprised as to how well they performed under a very challenging condition. Thank you Michelin for bringing out the hidden goat in my suburban Jeep.

these tires lasted 130,000 miles and still were not quite down to the wear bars. vehicle is a 2000 ford explorer and while i did not beat them up this suv is not babied either. even late in the tread life they performed extremely well in the rain and snow. the new LTX M/S 2's are even better starting and stopping in the rain. i do not believe that there is a better tire on the market, at least in this application.

Rain or shine, hot or cold, these tires perform very well. My Rav4 is not an open road vehicle. Despite being a 4wd manual transmission I don't go off road except to pull people out of a ditch. So I can't speak to those situations. Around town I love how my Michelin's have given my Rav4 a great ride that I can be confident about.

The LTX MS tires are an outstanding wet and winter driving tire. The dry weather driving is quiet and smooth. They are also a very good off road tire. I was very pleased with the performance of this tire no matter what the conditions were. This is a very good tire for my Ford Ranger.

I had two trucks with these tires. A Dodge Ram half ton pick-up and a Ford Econoline Van. Both had above average wear with proper maintenance (I rotated and check air pressures along with wheel balancing). Comfort and handling was excellent on local streets, the highway, snow storms, you name it.

I use these tires on my 4 x 4 for every day use, traveling and work. These tires are fantastic as they are a replacement from other Michelin tires. Received 15% more use out of the tread than their rating suggested. Great ride and reliability. These tires are perfect for year round use, rain, snow, and traveling long distances.

Purchased a set of Defender LTX M/S tires for our 2008 Toyota Highlander Limited. Could not be happier! Smooth quiet ride, with very good handling. Recently traveled about 1400 miles over varying types of road surfaces and mountain driving. Felt a lot more comfortable coming down the steep and winding mountain roads that we have traveled many times so very familiar with those roads. Nice looking tires as well. Have not tried rain or snow yet so only rating performance based on dry roads.

These tires performed well both on and off road. I am able to get my pick-up truck into wherever I want to go with it. The tires are quiet on the highway and wear mileage is higher than stated in the warranty. These are excellent tires and I will purchase them again.

My new LTS M/S tires look much better than the sample picture Michelin has posted. The sidewalls have a nice look and the tread looks better. If these tires get the miles that Michelin claims, and if all the positive reviews I have read are true, than I may be one happy new tire buyer. I will let you all know if I get the 60k+ miles in a few years.

I left Goodyear and bought these tires 4 years ago and have loved these tires. We pull a Hitchhiker Discover America 300FK all over the US and these tires are quite and very smooth riding. I have worn the outside edge off as I have used the recommended 60 front 70 unloaded tire pressure. This is under inflated so now I run 70psi all around unhooked and 70 front 80 rear when hooked to the RV. I am getting a new set tomorrow.
