Very good wet and dry traction. Great braking and roadholding and handling until the tread is literally gone. Good tread life, but not what I might have expected for the price and considering the vehicle is a midsize SUV that is driven mostly by my wife. The vehicle tended to wander more at low to medium speeds with these tires than with the previous (OEM) set, but that wasn't noticeable at highway speeds. They are very quiet and smooth for a light truck tire with an M/S rating and a rather agressive tread profile.

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.

I knew the Michelin name and respected the value and legacy. These tires have performed above my expectations and then some! They show little wear after 20k and will last well into the 50k mile mark. I would recommend Michelin as the last tire you will ever buy. These are my first set, and I am very pleased!

I have 45K miles on these tires and they are great tires. They ride quite and I feel safe with them in bad weather. They have been thru heavy rain, snow, ice and handle well. The tread wear is even and I keep tabs on the tire pressure. I know I need to replace soon and will probably get the same ones. Hoping the prices come down...

These tires do it all on my SUV. The wear is great! They're great on and off road. I don't drive in deep mud but I drive a lot of fire roads in the mountains that have some muddy and snowy areas and the tires do great. They're also tough tires and hadle the rocky mountain roads with no problems.

Always enjoyed Michelin tires. An avid fan...Live in So Cal. Have a bought new 2015 Ram 2wd std cab, 6'4" bed truck. Installed a new set (4) of the 275/60-20 Defender LTXs @ 39,241 miles in June 2017...... Excellent handling, very low tire noise at all speeds and outstanding performance in wet weather. Tires have been rotated every 6K to 8K miles in a figure 8 pattern. 90 + % of the total miles are highway miles. Proper air pressure always maintained along with no alignment issues. Tires wearing evenly across the entire tread width.......Now have 71,050 miles on the truck. and a total of 31,809 miles of these Michelins. One of the tires has a center tread depth of 5/32 remaining while the other three have 6/32nds of remaining tread. Surely not going to come close to the 70K mile expected tread life for this tire. Might get 50K to 55K miles.......From other review blogs I have read, pre-mature tread life seems to be a common complaint for this particular Michelin tire, while a very few do get their nearly 70K and over 70K miles.....This means that the rubber compounds mixed during manufacture are not consistently durable enough. More durable compound mixture is needed.....C'mon Michelin. You can do better......I do not want to go with another tire brand.

I have not driven that many miles on my new tires, yet. However, to date they have provided a comfortable ride and good gas mileage. When I first saw the tires, I note\iced that the tread was more "aggressive" than the tires I replaced. I was somewhat fearful that this tread might result in poorer gas mileage, but to date this has not occurred. In fact, I seem to be getting slightly better mileage.

Simply put, the ride is exceptional, great performance, tracking, steering road conditions, tire treadlife. Only downfall is the white outline tires. The way your bonding process is? ( i WAS TOLD THIS BY YOUR REPRESENTATIVE(S) SEE ANY HISTORY, warranty adjustments/ claims...). Had sidewall cracking. Not sure if this could pose a danger, did not want to take that chance. Hoping you would solve this issue, I PURCHASED ONE OF YOUR SIDELINES B.F. GOODRICH, hoping by the time I had to replace them and come back to these tires, this problem would be solved. Currently watching this...

In 2000 I bought a 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe with 9000 miles on the clock. Apparantly the original owner didn't like the original equipment tires that came on the vehicle and had swapped them for a set of Michelins. I liked those tires very much from day one. The ride was excellent. The handling, braking, wet traction, and traction in snow were all very good. That set of tires lasted until 2009, when with about 60,000 miles on them, I figured it was time for a new set. Of course, I put on another set of Michelins. I also put a set on my wife's minivan. She loves them too.

Great traction on all types of road surfaces, I was surprised by the low road noise and I have had great wear results. I have been a Michelin man for over 20 years now and will only buy from this great line of tires! In fact, when I buy a new car, I insist that it comes with Michelins!
