Very good tire, but DEEPER TREAD needed for next gen

This has been an excellent tire. The one thing it needs is deeper tread. Michelin, if you are listening, your competitors are offering up to 20/32 inch tread depth and you are at 13.5/32 inch on the LT285/70/17 Defender LTX. If I see another tire with that much more tread depth, there is a good chance I will purchase it. Please, more tread depth to be competitive in the current LT tire market for the next edition of this tire. At least 1/2 inch.

My new LTS M/S look great too!

My new LTS M/S tires look much better than the sample picture Michelin has posted. The sidewalls have a nice look and the tread looks better. If these tires get the miles that Michelin claims, and if all the positive reviews I have read are true, than I may be one happy new tire buyer. I will let you all know if I get the 60k+ miles in a few years.

Terrible Tramlining

I have always liked the performance of my Michelin tires but the tramlining on this set is a definite negative. I truly would not have purchase them had I known that it would be this noticeable. I needed new tires for my Jeep Grand Cherokee and I put on about 35K miles a year so I didn't hesitate getting these as I have never had this problem with other Michelin's on my cars. Very irritating considering half of my daily commute is on grooved pavement.

I would buy these tires agaun

I brought my first set of Michelin tires when my Honda van needed new tires. Originally I brought another band but after a week I didn't like them. The Michelin dealer gave me full credit for the other ties toward the Michelin's. The van drove and handled so much better. When my daughter's car needed tires I brought Michelin and she couldn't believe how much better her car drove and handled. I put Michelin's on our Ford Escape and my wife really liked how much quieter the car drove. I'm goning to make sure the next car I buy has Michelin's on it.

I have purhased several ...

I have purhased several sets of the LTX/MS tires in 10 ply over the past several years. I have had trouble free use for 70000+ miles on each set. I was even able to give the used tires to someone who needed tires, but was unable to afford to purchase any, They also were able to use them for additional trouble free miles. The tires are more expensive than many other brands but I have considered it well worth the cost to feel secure with the quality of the tires.

Dependable LT/crossover tire

I have put about 30,000 miles on Defender LTX M/S in all weather and they handle very well on my Honda Pilot. Stop wining about noise! These are noisier than passenger rated tires as these tires are light truck/crossover tires and are able to handle higher weights and loads. I run them about 4 lbs higher pressure than the SUV door sticker for higher vehicle load per the Michelin spec.

We purchased our tires for our 2005 Ford Excursion 16 months ago. We have 7 kids and drive roughly 30-50,000 miles a year between practice, games, and visiting out of state family. We trust Michelin to be the safest and all round best choice for our family. Thank you.

I love these tires!

I love these tires. When I say these tires have superior traction, I've had tires for six months and i driven through mud, wet grass and wet pavement and these tires never loss traction. I love them and I recommend them to anybody who drives a truck! One more thing, these tires make a truck look so good!

Weak sidewall

I sliced the side wall open while driving on hard top on a pice of lumber at low speed. Only 12,000 K on the set. Now wether to replace two or all four as its a 4X4. Disappointing, good fuel economy and ride though. Maybe I would have better luck with AT/2? Its the sort of failure I associate with off road use.

A single word can ...

A single word can summarize the Michelin tires on my 2010 Honda Pilot Touring: Confidence. After struggles with other brands, I now understand the value Michelin provides. No more slipping in the wet. No more early wear issues. No more worrying about safety and early replacements. Thank goodness Honda chose these Michelins as standard equipment. I won't question the cost of replacing other brands with Michelin again. It's worth a bit more to have the confidence to drive like you mean it.
