best all-around tire on the market

I have used Michelin tires exclusively for 20+ years. I found them to be the quietest road tire and a great wet traction tire. I consistently get 50k+ care-free miles from them.

A very nice ride

Tires provide good traction without a lot of noise in the truck.

THE BEST

I have been driving and buying tires for over 50 yrs and these LTX M/S are by far the smoooothest riding tires I ever had. I could feel the difference in 2 blocks. I only have 200 miles on them so I have to wait and see how they last. I only give them 4 stars because I just bought them. They are NOT cheap but I think they will be worth it.

MICHELIN Defender LTX M/S

We have been experiencing very poor driving conditions, however, our Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires have been excellent in assisting with our driving safety. Everyone should drive according to the conditions no matter what type of tires your car has on it. Our Michelin's are excellent in every way. Our Lexus RX350 has better control since we had our Michelin's put on. We simply feel safer.

Worse gas mileage tire I have ever owned.

I only buy Michelin tires as they are proven to be the best, I have been a faithful Michelin tire owner for many years, and however, my latest Michelin purchase I am not happy with. My MPG has dipped 3 to 4 miles per gallon since I put these tires on. These were the most expensive tires they had at the store and I was told the best Michelin tires they had, so I was quick to purchase thinking I couldn't go wrong. Well, that's is not the case. While the tires give a smooth, quiet ride, the reduction in gas millage leaves me more than disappointed. The original brand tires the vehicle came with gave me much better millage and those were worn out

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.

Great tire! Deep tread but amazingly quiet

Did the reasearch and selected this tire sight unseen for my Ford Expedition. When I saw the tire in person I was concerned the aggressive tread would be noisy. So glad I didn't. The Defender LTX's are the quietest tires I've ever owned, and have excellent grip dry, wet, and even in snow.

Best tire I have ever bought

Have had these tires on my car since 2008 (180,000 Kim's later ) I can not where them out, normal maintenance and rotation, no flats but starting to crack a little on sides so will have to buy new ones soon. Well worth every cent and great for winter and summer, no need to get winter tires with these.
