I have run these tires on ...

I have run these tires on Ford, Chevy and Dodge trucks for over 15 years, always try to replace my factory tires with them, haven't found another tire manufacturer who can provide as good a tire and the mileage life as the LTX M/S. Being in outside sales I drive close to 50K miles a year with a mix of city and highway. I typically get 80K miles on a set with even wear down to the end with regular balance & rotation every 5K miles, lucky to get 50K miles on any others.

Michelin is all we buy!

Over the years we've tried other tires that were supposed to be equal to Michelin, but we never got the wear out of them like we should. We had our first set of Michelins on our minivan and now are on our second set on our full size E-150. Nothing wears as well. Have considered trying others again, but we know what we get in Michelins - long wear and quality. We're customers for life.

Second Set and still loving them

I have driven on a lot of tires and none compare to these on my truck. Rated at 70,000 miles and I got more than that out of first set and am working on 50,000 on the second and last check only half worn. They not only wear well they give me a smooth quiet ride on the highway. I didn't buy my Honda Ridgeline for off reading so these are perfect for my needs. Thanks Michelin for building such a great tire. I will definitely be using these again on my truck!

The Ultimate Highway and Off-Road Ranch

I have been using Michelin LTX MS tires for years now. I've tried other brands and have always gone back to Michelin. The LTX MS is great not only on the highway, but performs well on the ranch and has never let me down. These tires have survived thorns, sharp rocks, and then provide a smooth and quiet ride back home.

I bought the LTX M/S for ...

I bought the LTX M/S for my 2006 Sequoia. The Speed Rating and coeffiecent of drag were most important to me. I was pleasantly surprised at the comfort of the ride (very smooth) even over bumps (speed bumps at 30mph). I put 40,000 miles on it before I traded the vehicle in with lots of tread depth left. Never a problem less one flat from a screw.

I think these tires ...

I think these tires should receive 5 stars but the price are on the high side. When I go into tire stores I have to hagel with them for my Michelins. I have three trucks and my daughter has two. All but one has Michelins on them. When it's time for the Explorer I'll put Michelin on it. I like not to keep buying tires, I'd like to buy them once.

Cheapest Tire for your Money

I did not particularily like using that title but it is true. If you take the total miles you will get from a set of Michelins and divide by the cost it is the cheapest tire per mile on the market. My last set I got 120k on my Ford F150, I could have easily put on 2-3 sets of competitor brands of tires. Besides that these tires handle real well and are excellent in the Rain. It makes you feel real safe when running these Michelin LTX M/S. How could I ever buy another set of tires without considering Michelins for myself or family. I have told many a friend about my experience with Michelin Tires and the sets I have purchased thru the years,which haven't been many? I may be your best salesman.

1.5 years in and now the loudest set of tires

I owned Defenders previously, until 2018 when I replaced them with these current (2011 Highlander SUV). And now at speeds over 40 mph the oscillating sound is so loud and driving me nuts. I read a review when I bought these suggesting they are loud and now I believe it. Don't buy these -I don't know why Michelin can't design a quieter tire for SUVs. They have always been my go-to brand for my sedans.

Rain or shine, hot or ...

Rain or shine, hot or cold, these tires perform very well. My Rav4 is not an open road vehicle. Despite being a 4wd manual transmission I don't go off road except to pull people out of a ditch. So I can't speak to those situations. Around town I love how my Michelin's have given my Rav4 a great ride that I can be confident about.
