I replaced the OEM tires ...

I replaced the OEM tires on my suburban with a set of Michelin LTX. The LTX tires were more expensive than a set of OEM tires, but the ride quality and lack of road noise made a huge difference in the vehicle. This set of Tires accumulated about 85,000 trouble free, quiet miles before being replaced. I did not notice a significant improvement in traction or an increase in mileage using these all season tires in either snow, rain or mud conditions. Tire wear was excellent and uniform over the life of the tire. If you are looking for a good all season long lasting tire that is quiet and reliable, look at a set of the Michelin LTX.

Vibration is an issue

I always buy Michelin. I installed a set of these tires on my F-150 December 2016. When it's very cold these tires literally shake my truck as if they are solid, I am talking temperatures in the teens. They ride like that for miles. As the temperatures warm up, they still shake quite a bit until they are driven maybe 20 miles at expressway speeds. At temperatures over 65 degrees, these tires ride smooth as glass, so I know that my vehicle does not have any mechanical issues. I can't stand the vibrations these tires cause, very annoying ride! I more than likely will have to dispose of a brand new set of tire and find something else.

Tires don't last

The tires have a 70 thousand mile warranty. I bought the tires in May of 2023 but the review form makes me put the purchase date within a year of the review date becuase they don't want people giving a real review of the tires. I only have 30,000 miles on the truck and the tires are going bald already. I drive mostly highway with some city driving, buts its all on paved roads and never offroad.

Great Tires

I have these tires on my truck, 2009 F-150, and when it came time to get tires for my wife's SUV, 2007 Trailblazer SS, these were top on my list. Since installing them on the vehicle I am more pleased with them than I am on my truck. They are a lot quieter than the tires they were replacing, and the ride is much improved as well. I have been very happy with the quality and value of Michelin products.

Tire replacement

You replaced my LTX tires under Warranty, these fit on a 2003 ford E250 cargo van, I always got excellent mileage out of these tires includeing the ones you recalled from me, we replaced these on 239,450 miles, I have 270,418 miles on van at present and the only have 4//32 0f tire tread left, shouldn`t wore down this fast, as I keep my tires balanced and rotated every 5000 miles for life extention . they now have only 30,968 miles on them, this van is on the road and expressway frequently. just curious if this was normal mileage , your warranty states this is a 70,000 mile tire, if so I am 4/32 from being bald, thank you

Second Try with Michelin

I purchased the predecessor (Non Defender) LTX M/S tires about 2.5 years ago. Warranty was for 70,000 miles but I only made it to 47,000 miles and was at or below the wear bars. Tires were rotated and balanced every 7500 miles. I did get credit back for the shortfall in mileage and now have the Defender tires on my truck. Hopefully this time they will make it to the 70K. Pretty disappointed in the fact that my first set of Michelin's did so poorly. Truck is just a daily driver not used for work. Tires performed well but 47K is not even close to the warranty.

I've been a Michelin ...

I've been a Michelin loyalist since 1985. My latest set of LTX M/S on my SUV have been and still are a great ride. I am amazed at how well these tires perform, and I get more than the average rated MPG for my SUV which I do credit the tires, because it is the only thing that is not factory on my vehicle. There is no doubt for me that my next set of tires will be Michelins.

Smooth Ride

Replaced all 4 tires on my 2020 Odyssey about 7 weeks ago. Did a lot of “research” / read a lot of websites before settling on them. Was concerned about a possible drop in MPG. Haven’t experienced that, and they ride so smooth I forgot what the original tires felt like. I would definitely buy these again.

Pricey tire

These tires replaced the original set of Michelins which had been on my truck for six years. Did not wear the originals out, they simply dry rotted. The new set rides extremely well, brakes well and performs in all types of weather. Of course being in Alabama have not experienced snow or ice. Would definitely purchase another set and do recommend to friends.
