In rain the tire catches traction In stoping and take off as if it goes below the rain to stop or take off with a squeal as if it were on dry pavement. Haven't ever experienced another tire to do the job in wet conditions as if it were dry. I am 59 yrs. old and have never experienced another tire to do this. Other tire companys shouls want to learn this from you all!

Had a set of 4 on my Honda Pilot when I bought it new. Used it a lot in the mountains during ski season and provided excellent traction and tread wear. It was a no brainer to get them again. Cost was a bit higher than other brands but piece of mind is priceless when it comes to the "rubber hitting the road".

Ibought these tires in2004 500 miles to work each week now in 2012 i reached 200,000 miles these tires are like an urban legend to those who know me and my truck.some friends i work with have gone thru 3 sets of tires to my one whose saving money . best truck tire made bar none.

I have used the defender tires for years on my vehicles and love them in every way. Bought a chev pu and the tires were still good, but did not like them and had to replace with these defender tires , could not wait the other tires were loud and did not drive as nice. I will only use michelin tires. My spouse does think it makes that much difference but it does.

this tire came out on my 2001 jeep wrangler and i replaced them on 2007 with 72,000 miles on them and there was still 4/32 tread left. I purchased a new set for this and they are wonderful, no shake or pull only smooth ride and long life. I am also able to go anywhere I need to go in the winter. I also purchased a set for my 2002 Jeep Liberty with the same good results! There is no other tire for me but a Michelin. Thanks for a wonderful product!

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.

These tires came as standard equipment on my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500. At 85,000 miles they needed to be replaced. The folks at the tire dealer thought I was crazy for putting such expensive tires on an older truck, but I told them that I planned to drive it until this set of tires wear out and I would be making money with the more expensive tire.

Bought new Michelin 18” Defender LTX M/S2 tires for a Ford F250 to replace Michelins that had come with the truck. My old tires were smooth as silk and I actually got more miles from them than the warranty. However, the new tires vibrated badly, so I had them rebalanced twice, with no improvement. Michelin replaced the tires under warranty, but the new tires also vibrate badly. I took them to another shop that had a road force balancer and paid out of my own pocket to have them rebalanced again. There was some improvement, but there’s still a significant amount of vibration. I'm very disappointed in these tires.

Tires wear excellent. Side walls look brand new. 68k and still tread life. Better to spend the dollars on a superior tire than save a dollar on less expensive tire that does not even compare. Ridgeline ride is great. Handles very smooth. Braking is good. Looking at moving up to Latitude for our next set of Michelin Tires. Have Michelin tires on our Honda Civic and if I can find tires we will put them on our Goldwing. Michelin makes great tires that last.

My Michelins have been on my old pick up truck since 1999 and they are still going strong...however, it is about time to replace them. My truck is used sparingly and certainly not every day. I've never had a flat or any trouble at all with them. They just keep going, going and going. They look great and perform great. What else can you ask for. My tires actually are worth more than the value of my truck. But I wouldn't part with my truck or my Michelins. We have a good thing going!!
