I would buy these tires agaun

I brought my first set of Michelin tires when my Honda van needed new tires. Originally I brought another band but after a week I didn't like them. The Michelin dealer gave me full credit for the other ties toward the Michelin's. The van drove and handled so much better. When my daughter's car needed tires I brought Michelin and she couldn't believe how much better her car drove and handled. I put Michelin's on our Ford Escape and my wife really liked how much quieter the car drove. I'm goning to make sure the next car I buy has Michelin's on it.

Excellant Tire

I shopped around a variety of tires for my Ford F150. After looking a lot of different brands and styles, decided I like the Michelin LTX best of all. The tire handles extremely well in rain or snow. Grips the road well. especially on turns. I feel very confident when I am on the road with this tire. One of the better tires I have come across in my years in the car repair business.

Good till the last mile!

Sometimes it takes awhile to realize there are products that paying alittle extra for up front return far greater value AND performance over the long term. Michelin LTX M/S - LTX M/S2 tires examplify that truth. After several sets of supposedly "quality" 6-ply tires for our Suburban used to pull our Airstream trailer and having a tread separate on the last set while towing at 55 mph on a very not day in northern California, we installed Michelin LTX M/S tires and have nothing but good things to say. First the Michelin tires DO NOT LOSS AIR PRESSURE between our trips like the previous "quality" tires did. Second the Michelin tires are more round AND required minimum wheel weights to balance. Thus the ride quality is far superior to the previous "quality" tires. Third even running the same 75 or 80 psi as done previousily with the other "quality" tires in the rears on the Suburban, the stability of the Michelin's is far superior. Bottom line, I have recommended Michelin to all that will listen in our Airstream group and many are making the switch as I did. FYI we recently purchased an Yukon XL to replace the aged Suburban with over 200,000 miles and had the new LTX M/S2's installed. Looking forward to many, many trouble free miles traveling the western US on our Michilin tires! Best Regards, TKNELLE Alamo, CA

love the tires

I use my LTX M/S tire on my everyday truck and just love them traction is superb in all conditions and the road noise is almost non existent on these. The mileage on the tires is excellent as well and with proper rotation they run true for the life of the tire. The only con I can think of, is of course is the price on them but you get all that you pay for for sure. I have them on both of my trucks and just love them.

I have had Michelin LTX ...

I have had Michelin LTX M/S tires on my Yukon since 2003, I have 200,000 miles on my vehicle and are on my third set of Michelin's. They are the best tire I have ever had and will buy nothing but them. I do a lot of highway driving and the ride, handling, and stability in the rain are perfect. I strongly recommend these tires to anyone who owns an SUV is looking fro a great tire. You will not be disappointed with the Michelins. I get 70,000 miles from these tires and never ever have any problems.

Quiet tire for me

I bought the Defender LTX 265/70R16 for a 2005 Toyota 4Runner to replace the LTX M/S2 that had 72,000 miles. I found the newer Defender LTX quieter than I expected and quieter than the older design LTX M/S2. I was not expecting that from a few of the reviews which indicated noise. All I hear now are wind noise, or engine noise if I accelerate, no tire noise. I am wondering if tire balance or other issues caused some reviewers to experience noise. I tested my new Defender LTX at all speeds up to 70 mph and especially in the 65 - 68 mph range where I typically see a balance issue the most if there is one, and these are well balanced tires.

After driving on Michelin ...

After driving on Michelin LTXs for the past 12 years I can honestly say that no other tire comes close in wear, durability, traction, comfort, and minimal road noise. One time, I switched to a competitor's tire because it was rated higher in braking and in wet traction. That competitor's tire was rated for 60,000 miles and at 25,000 miles they had to be replaced due to wear. I have consistently gotten 60,000 miles out of a set of Michelin LTX's with rotations and balancing every 6,000-9,000 miles. There is no other tire manufacturer making a tire that is comparable to the LTX in longevity. The only area the LTX is slightly weak would be in muddy conditions, although driving in muddy condition is not an everyday occurrence. I will continue to buy Michelin LTX tires "because so much is riding on my tires". Thank you for making a superior product.

Very good tire, but DEEPER TREAD needed for next gen

This has been an excellent tire. The one thing it needs is deeper tread. Michelin, if you are listening, your competitors are offering up to 20/32 inch tread depth and you are at 13.5/32 inch on the LT285/70/17 Defender LTX. If I see another tire with that much more tread depth, there is a good chance I will purchase it. Please, more tread depth to be competitive in the current LT tire market for the next edition of this tire. At least 1/2 inch.

Best all around tires ever!!!

I bought the LTX M/S tire about a year ago after sliding around in the snow on my last tires. The m/s tire handle so well I don't have to worry about hydroplaning in the rain, not having traction in the snow, or even too much about sliding on the ICE!!! My husband loves them because they make our truck go in the mountains where you would think only a jeep could go. The traction in mud is phenominal. I finally found a tire I feel safe driving on too. They also make my truck look so much better than the last ones I had. Me and my husband will never buy another tire but Michelin's. We even argued with the salesman when we bought our brand new truck because it didn't come with michelin's!!! We already have an appointment to get them switched.
