These tires are great night and day from my other tires. Live in North East Ohio along the lake. These tires have great snow traction and preform great on wet roads. would get them again and recommend them to friends and family. Got 4 new tires in November 2016

Have put on about 20,000 mile on these - medium use and mostly highway. wearing down pretty quickly in less than 1 year. not my previous experience with the Defender tires - they lasted 100k+ miles. Michelin - am questioning why I paid a premium for durability based upon previous performance now. Hopefully they will last. Don't appear to handle dirt/gravel roads as well as advertised/expected. I only buy this brand and this model for my p/u and SUVs. Am reconsidering now with my newest experience.

As a building contractor I drive a full sized 4 wheel drive truck, GMC Sierra and pull a dump trailer and my boat occasionally. I got more than 61,000 miles out of this set even though it runs on hot Florida roads, I tend to drive a little fast and stop a little harder than perhaps I should and my truck is rarely empty.

This is my second set of Michelins. The first set got me close to 60,000 miles, and I am hoping to get the same out of the 2nd set. These tires are smooth, quiet and offer a very comfortable ride. They are a little more expensive than other brands but they last longer so it actually saves you time and money in the long run.

These LTX M/S tires gave me over 70000 miles on our RX300 - the only reason I replaced them was due to their age (over 6 years) - they still had over 3/32 tread remaining. Of course they were replaced with the same tire plus I also put a similar set (LTX M/S2) on my pickup. Simply the best.

Third set of the Defender LTX M/S tires on two diesel pickups used to tow approximately 15,000 # fifth wheels. They are quiet, great wet traction and decent in snow. These tires are not designed to routinely run up and down wet dirt/muddy roads, through fields or Upper Peninsula winters. Love these tires and that is why I am a repeat customer. As with any brand & model tire the vehicle must be in alignment to include the frame or there will be abnormal wear. As with any brand & model tire if the tires are not properly inflated there will be abnormal wear. Proper inflation does not mean pressuring the tire to the maximum number located on the sidewall either.

After purchasing another brand, I turned around and bought the michelins like I should have. Smooth and extremely quiet ride. I got 80,000 miles from my last set. Gravel roads don't chew up the tread like on other brands. Worth the money in the long run.

I have bought the Defender LTX MS tires for 3 separate vehicles that I have owned over the last three years and folks I can tell you, this specific Michelin is nothing short of a nightmare for me and my family. If or when you do find a good set of four, the ride quality is nothing short of phenomenal, but be warned, you might have to go through 12 of these tires to find four that is not defective. The reason why I keep buying this model is the fact that when you do find a good set, they are the most comfortable and with extremely low noise, because as good as the other models of Michelin tires are, most of them are extremely noisy. I have used countless other models of Michelin tires and kind of gave up on them due the high levels of noise, but other than high noise level, they were excellent all round tires. Michelin really need to spend more time in scrutinizing their quality because which ever factory they are using to make this specific model, they are way off the mark. The vibration from the defective ones are so bad that there are times when driving down the highway that I look over at other drivers to see their reaction if they can see my vehicle shaking. Due the vibration issues, I have even been trying to find this exact model tire in the European market, so I could have them ship here to me in the USA, because I was told the Michelin tires that are made in France are of higher quality. Unfortunately, they don’t seem to have this in Europe. Michelin should be ashamed to put out this poor quality tire with their name on it.

I bought a brand new 99 Silverado LT.I got only 21000 miles out of those tires99(not Michelin)lol b/4 they started wearing a lil thin,so I went ahead and bought 4 new Michelins on it in 2 yrs later(01).I still to this day have those same tires on my truck,almost10 yrs later,and still have tread left,and still ride smooth!...,,,Seriously ;) You might pay more for Michelin,but hands down you get your moneys worth!It is NOT only the name Michelin that makes people but your tires,it is performance and satisfaction,hands down the best and safest tire money can buy!Thx.....;)

These are the best tires we have ever purchased. We paid a little more for them but it was well worth it. We installed these tires on our GMC Yukon Denali when we had 20k miles on it and now at 115k miles its time to replace them. Very comfortable and quiet ride. Will definitely be purchasing these tires again.
