Bought these Defender LTX M/S for my 14' Subaru Forester 2.5 i , upon recommendation from my local smaller dealer and research ,Is when we decided to up size from 225-60-R17 99H to 225-65-R17 102H so we could get to the Defender LTX M/S vs the Defender T+H, A great decision// for added Tire performance for traction, wet weather traction & braking, snow traction and mixed conditions in the Mid Atlantic region and into W Va travels. Only went with 4++ stars due to only 12k on a 70,000 rated tire is rerasonable and more in line of the performance thus far Yes i have lost about 1-1.5 mpg around town but the performance in handling, stopping and traction improvement locally but also on trips has been noticeable and appreciated. Also about maybe 1 mpg lost on trips has been worth it ,for all the other features we have gained by going with this size and model of Defender. The handling of our Forester has been improved from the OEM Yokahamas 2yrs 24,000 and the P7 All season Plus tires that only game me 32,600 miles for 60,000 mile tire. I rotate these tires every 6,000 miles and having put 12K on them thus far there is no wear noticed. Given the size & gross wt of our Forester SUV , lends to a lighter handling vehicle esp in mixed and snow ; we have gained better driving and performance for this type of SUV which has increased the value to us for our vehicle. I would recommend considering these tires, again I am very pleased with the greater aspect of the tires and getting into the Defender LTX M/S model I plan on updating this review when i get another 12k or on the tire Mark Va

These are the best tires made. I bought 4 LTX/MS in 2006 for my Xterra. I just notice today that I will have to replace them within the next 5,000 to 10,000 miles. I pulled the paperwork and they were installed @ 223,000 miles. I now have 385,000 miles. Do the math folks, Yup, 162,000 + mile and riding like new still. AWESOME. See what routine rotating and air pressure checks will do for you. And yup I can back it up with detailed paperwork. Only wish I could afford to buy these again. This kinda sounds like a commercial.

I needed to replace my stock Good Year Wranglers which I considered good tires at 95K. After careful research I settled on The Michelin Defender LTX M/S and they have exceeded my expectations in the first six weeks of driving. I am mostly highway with a mix of city driving averaging about 400 KM a week in northern Manitoba. The first week I had the tire we had constant wet greasy snow and for the last few weeks a mix of -30 to -10 and intermittent snow. These tires have exceeded my expectations for traction on the snow covered and slippery roads during acceleration cruise and stopping. They are quiet and provide a comfortable ride.

Bought these tires about 3 years ago. I have put on 30,000 miles and more. These tires look brand new yet and have lots of tread left. They seem to last alot longer then other tires and I would recomend these over all others. I will buy these again if they every wear out.

I installed a set of Michelins on my pickup when the original tires wore out at about 64,000 miles (I'm not a "hard driver", so I tend to get good mileage out of tires). I drove that set of Michelins for approximately 65,000 miles. These Michelins now have only 8,000 miles on them, but they are as excellent as the previous set. I bought my first set of Michelins in 1971, and with only one exception, I've bought only Michelins since then--and I've never had a faulty Michelin tire.

I started using Michelin Tires 8 years ago. This brand is the only tire I can say will actually last it's mileage and then some. The last set I had, lasted 6 years, and when I had them replaced, the mechanic could not believe how old they were and how many miles they had.

I have had these tires on my Ford Expedition EL for almost a month. I have logged around 2000 miles, first impressions are very good. The control they provide is a big step up from the old BF Goodrich tires. I would not drive my Expedition in the snow due to poor stopping traction in the past. Now I do so with confidence. These tires are solid, in rain, snow and on dry pavement. This tire is quiet and rides great at highway speeds. If you are wondering if a tire can make a difference try these shoes on your vehicle you will be amazed. I will update this review as I log the miles.

The tires I have on my GMC 2500 Suburban are LTX265/75R16.There is only one brand at the top... Michelin! They have over 40,000 miles and have over the original tread remaining. It seems that they are the only manufacturer of tires capable of making a tire suitable for the weight and payload of any vehicle without compromising performance and wear. I have experienced this over the past 35 years time and time again. Kudos to the engineers at Michelin.

I have purchased (2) sets of LTX MS ( l set on a 1990 Jeep cherokee laredo, and on a 1997 grand cherokee laredo. Both sets have been excellent, with the set on 1997 jeep still with more than half the tread after 40,000 miles. I intended on getting these for my wife's 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo, but unfortunately I couldn't afford them at the time. Also, the tires on the 1997 have been on for 8 years. I have recommended these tires to several of my friends, and I know least three have purchased the LTX MS. These tires are outstanding for all season, long mileage, and quite/smooth ride.

This set of tires replaced a set of private labeled tires that were on my Ford Ranger. These tires handle much better and real quiet when cruising on the highway. Michelin tires have been on many of my vehicles over the years because they are great tires and you get your moneys worth from they.
