LTS M/S

Had my LTX M/S tires for a year. They are fantastic! I've probably put 10,000 miles on them and they still look new. I've bought many sets of Michelin over the years and they've all stood up well for distance driving and local driving. I live in the NC mountains, so they really have to grip a lot of curbs--and they do grip. Pay the extra; it's worth it!

Just Love Michelin

Replaced my Michelin Latitude Tour HPs (after 50,000 miles) on my 2009 Acura MDX with the four new Defender LTX MS. Have had them for only a month now, but really like them. Smooth, quiet, and seem to hug the road well in wet and dry conditions. Have driven them on highway and city....perform well in both instances.

Overrated treadlife - Very Disappointed

Bought these tires for my vehicle and after only 31000 miles, was back at the tire dealership shopping for new tires due to the excessive treadwear. This was the second set, both of which came way short of the mileage rating. Have been a life long purchaser of Michelin tires due to the quality and ride but these were a huge let down. Grateful for having a terrific dealer that was interested in trying to find a suitable replacement in a different brand. Not what I expected from Michelin.

Quiet and smooth ride

I have had my tires for about 10,000 miles. They are very quiet, and give me a smooth ride as well. I believe in Michelin tires and have purchased them for half of my life. They have never failed me and I have never had a problem with any of my Michelin tires getting cupped on the edges and making noise. They are not the cheapest tire but they are worth the cost in the long run. Spend the time to rotate them every 5000 miles and they will last you a long time.

Best road tires I've ever owned

I've had the Defender series on several different vehicles. Best performing road tire I've ever had. Wet, slick, icy and light snow, the traction, stopping power and cornering is the best. I'd love to have some narley looking AT tires on my 4runner for looks but I'll never change from the Defenders, I feel safe with them on my vehicle.

Great in snow

Just purchased these tires after much time reading various reviews on the internet. Wanted a tire that would offer all season reliability and still provide good traction on snow and icy road conditions. Here in Colorado they do a great job clearing the roads, but I often leave early in the mornings and it can be dangerous. We had our first snow of the season about two weeks after having these installed, and they were fantastic. They tracked extremely well in about 4" of fresh, wet snow. I never felt out of control of my vehicle. This is exactly what I was hoping for when I purchased these tires.

Expedition's new Defender LLTX M/S

I replaced all 4 tires on my Expedition with new Defenders LTX. I now have a smooth ride with no road noise. It even seems as if handling of the curves has improved. The tires hug the road whether it's wet or dry. I can always confide in Michelins to keep us safe on the road.

I like the tire

I was having trouble with left turns in wet conditions with our 2005 Chevy Trailblazer. The tires on the vehicle would not grip the pavement in this turn. This is the third set of tires for the vehicle and I no longer am having the car slip in wet conditions. I am in need of replacement tires on my Chevy Impala soon and will most likely use a Michelin for this vehicle as well.

Great tires! Great decision!

Knew what to expect. Went with what came on vehicle and I am glad I did. Quiet ride and and makes vehicle handle great. Without a doubt, Michelin makes the best tire. May be less expensive tire available, but you will not be sorry for choosing Michelin.

Excellent choice

I own 7 vehicles and 6 of them have Michelin defender's other 1 has Michelin Pilot Sport. that wear great NO Problems. No balance issues, they wear proper. Work great on snow and ice (tires help on snow and ice but only if you actually know how to drive on it). Excellent wet weather traction. I don't have tpms (tire pressure monitoring system) on none of them, don't want it and don't need it! I can feel if it doesn't feel right and I'll pull over and check. I also check tire pressure's on a regular basis. I don't rotate every oil change or any of that mess. I rotate only when it's needed. I'm changing a set on my 2000 Honda Accord V6 in the morning (6-29-24) that has around 68,000 miles on them with 3/32 left on them and only rotated twice (car driven VERY regularly to Duke children's hospital 2.4 hr drive 1 way, I just ain't trusting any other tire for it). My alignments are right. Never ever will there be a so called "special on alignment" ever done on anything I own, all they do is toe and go or just get it to look good for the printout. I do my own set to exact specs! Absolutely no worn parts. If you're ever told "we can adjust it for it being worn". Nope, you just got took. On another note you can not buy tires only by size and price you have to get not only the tire size BUT you have to get the speed and weight rating for your application. Example P205/65r15 94H. P is for Passenger, LT is needed for trucks that's going to be hauling anything heavy. The 94H is the load index & speed rating extremely crucial. It can literally mean the tire can't hold the weight it is carrying/hauling or handle the speed your going to be driving. Therefore I don't buy tires by price, I buy what I need and just pay the price needed and in the end it's cheaper and safer. Thanks Michelin
