Great ride

My OEM tires on my Toyota Highlander still had about another 5,000 or so miles on them but as we were about to go on a road trip I thought it would be a good time to buy new and I'm glad I did. I went with the Michelins because I know that I can expect great performance and longevity. We drove from Florida to North Carolina in October, drove the Blue Ridge Parkway and beyond, totaling 2,500 miles. The Highlander handles great on the twists and turns of the parkway. One difference I noted compared to the old tires was that I felt we were part of the road rather than riding on top of it. The grip and feedback were fantastic. The only negative maybe was that I thought they were just a little high priced for tires made in Mexico but still, I was very happy with my purchase.

Simply the best all season tires.

We have been driving with MICHELIN LTX MS for a long time.They are quite riding, long lasting with good fuel mileage. Excellent in rain and snow but not icey roads. I have used them year round with no problems and we get a lot of snow. But we do prefer studded tires for icey roads.

My local service station ...

My local service station talked me into another major brand of tire to replace my worn LTX Michelins. I developed a wobble in the front end of my Chevy Tahoe that I never had before. They balanced the tires, rotated them, did an alignment, shocks, etc. and could not cure the problem. Finally they replaced the tires with a new set of the same brand and I still had the wobble. I finally took my truck to a Chevy dealer and they told me the tires were out of round. I replaced the tires with new Michelin LTX M/Ss and never had the problem again. That was 70,000 mile ago and they're still in great shape. I'll always use Michelin. Great tires!

Hulk, there could be a contributing factor to the wear on the tires. We recommend to take the vehicle to an authorized retailer in your area for an inspection. Utilize our Dealer Locator to find dealers in your area. Give us a call once the tires have been inspected and we will contact the dealer and get their findings to determine next steps.

I love this tire

This is the second set of LTX M/S tires we've owned. The first set lasted 105,000 miles and were replaced due to age not tire wear. After 105, 000 miles they still rode as smooth and performed flawlessly. The 2nd set is living up to the same expectations.

I owned a set of ...

I owned a set of Michelins on a Volvo I once owned. Now that I have a daughter and I am concerned about her safety more than my own and she needed good tires I bought her the best that I once knew of: Michelin. If I can afford them for my wife, (she's the primary driver in our home), her next set of tires will be Michelins also.

Great handling in crisis situation

A year ago, my 2008 F150 needed new tires. The original tires were 255/65-17 but Michelin had none in inventory and none scheduled to be produced so I had bought the 265/65-17. The tires have great road handling grip as was illustrated a short time after the purchase. During a rainstorm on an isolated two lane black-top, they helped me avoid a head-on collision when a car crossed into my lane and just kept coming despite my flashing headlights and blasting of the horn. I had two of my 14 year olds with me and since there were no other cars on the road, we quickly swerved to the left as the "distracted driver" flew past us in our lane at 70+ mph. I immediately thanked the Lord for the new Michelins and our safety. Today, after 16,000 miles the tread-wear has worn from 13/32" to 10/32" so I expect to get around 60,000 miles and about 3 more years from this set.

Put these LTX M/S tires ...

Put these LTX M/S tires on my Silverado and I love them. I have 40,000 miles on them and have over half the tread left. I take a 3500 mile trip each fall and the additional comfort I experience while on the road is amazing. I especially like the quiet ride. Here in Florida, they work especially well in the sand we deal with any time we are off the road. I highly recommend this tire and will replace them with the same M/S or the new M/S2 if they ever wear out.

Perfect

265 70-R16 on 2012 Nissan Frontier 4x4 Crew Cab. Less rolling resistance, less than 1/2 previous tire noise, perfectly smooth ride, excellent traction, when accelerating, slowing, or turning. Highly recommended. No other companies tires are even close.

Great tires for my F150

I have been driving on these new tires for a month or so. I expected good grip and a nice ride and they delivered. I was pleasantly surprised how stable they feel. My old tires had a more aggressive tread and they felt mushier on the road. since almost all of my driving is on the read. These tires were the perfect choice.
