without a doubt the best overall tires on the market. Best ride , wear and over all the best I have bought and would not buy anything else. Have bought 4 sets on different trucks in the last 15 to 20 years and never had a problem out of any of them and ran them all about 100,000 miles.

I bought these tires to replace a set of michelins that were on the truck when i bought , it they were used and i still put 55,000 miles on them . The new tires are fantastic smooth quiet ride and great traction in the new england snow. I would recommend them to anyone and have. great tire comprable price will put them on my secaond car as soon as it needs them.

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.

I purchased my LT2s in February 2010. I now 62,000 miles on them. It won't be long before I'll be ready for new tires. I've had such a good experience with the LT2s that intend to buy Defender LTX M/S to replace them. I put Michelin tires on another car I owned and have recommended Michelin to others and all have been very satisfied with their purchase.

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 have a set on my van, 2500 diesel and 1500. I couldn't be more happy. I had purchased a set of bf all terrains for my 2500 before these and they lasted 25k , the defenders have 65k on them and are still about 70 percent tread left. I will never go back to anything but Michelin, they are by far the best on the market for any make or model of vehicle. Also I run them all year round and find them just as good as snow tires on the trucks, I run x ice xi2 on the van and it is remarkable how good they are. I hope anyone that is trying to decide what to buy. Please spend a little more money and buy Michelins you will not regret it! Thank you Michelin for creating such a great product that I can trust and depend on every day.

I live in northern Maine and installed these on my Jeep Wrangler in late summer. The interstate up here has some very deep grooves in the road and hydroplaning is an issue in even moderate rain. The tires performed very well going through the pooled water on the roadway as I never felt any loss of traction with the road surface. Winter is just starting but for the first couple of storms and icy conditions that were left behind the tires again performed well. I already have about 8,000 miles on them and they are wearing just fine so far. I would definitely purchase these again.

You get what you pay for, and the Michelin Defender LTX M&S are by no means the cheapest tire out there. I have tried many other brands of tires, but always come back to this one. If you looking for smooth, quiet ride, good traction & long wear look no further. Over 10K miles driven so far, I fully expect to get nearly 50K out of every set and I never let the tread levels wear down completely on my tires. I drive a mix of highway miles, windy mountain roads, rocky/dirt/gravel roads, rain and snow and these tires hold up better than all the rest.

Now on my second set of P265/70/R16 Defender M/S tires (in a month) and they are horribly rough riding (as were the first set). Thought there might be something wrong with my vehicle since the Michelins I took off (Latitudes) were great riding tires, so, I changed all rotors, pads, all the front and rear suspension, two different sets of shocks, tie rod ends, idler arm and bracket, etc. to no avail. The first set of Defenders were balanced 4 times before the tire shop finally changed them out for a different set. I am extremely unhappy with these tires, as is the wife. And as everyone knows, when the wife is not happy, everyone is unhappy.

I have had three sets of Michelin tires on my trucks and would never think of using any other. The reason is safety and wear. I pull a fifth wheel travel trailer, not a dually, and don't ever want a tire failure and never have with Michelin. Also recently bought Michelin for our travel trailer. I have never felt safer!! As a side note, we have installed Michelin on our personal car. The wear is excellent when you ride on these tires and the feeling of safety can not be better. Highly recommend the Michelin tire family if you are looking to replace your old rubber.
