Best tire on the planet

I bought my Pilot new it now has 81,200 miles on it with the same original tires. I'm looking for new ones now before winter and I'm having a hard time finding them in my area. Why aren't people stocking what really works. I thought about trading it in and the 2 dealers that looked at them said those aren't the orig. when I said yes they are their comment was that's one for the record book! I live on a farm in SNOW country and they are by far the best, all around, worth the money tire ever made!!!

EXCELLENT TIRES!

These tires have given me years of great service. I have had them on my Ford Ranger, Ford F150, and Ford Excursion. They are not by any means the cheapest tires for these vehicles, but they offer great ride quality, low noise, and I have never had one with any type of defect throughout the life of the tire.

Good tires to have on your vehicle.

I have almost 52,000 miles on my tires. I could go probably another 5 to 8,000 miles. Thread is getting close to the tire wear markers. We are an older couple in our mid-70's. I decided to purchase another set of 4 because I wanted to be sure we do not have tire problems. We still travel a lot. Handles in all weather very well plus the potholes in a few roads we travel. Be safe/feel safe with these tires. We have over 100,000 miles on our truck.

Michelin LTX MS original and Michelin Defender LTX M/S

I had the original Michelin LTX MS and now have about 500 miles on the new Defender LTX MS. I think Michelin really got it right with the whole design of this tire. The original LTX is a great beloved tire. It provides good all season traction, a smooth quiet ride and decent tread life. I see the difference to the LTX MS2 and the Defender LTX I am driving is mostly in the outer shoulder block tread design. Its not open so water and slush can evacuate more easily. I like this idea. So far I love the new Defender. My only advice to Michelin and keep a decent tread depth on your tires. For an SUV or truck 11/32 should be the minimum.

I used up all 70,000 miles on this tire

I bought this set of four tires in 2007 for my Explorer at 91, 000 miles. Through rain, snow, hot summers, and dirt roads, they have held up well and done what they were designed to do. Tomorrow, I'll be getting a new set of Michelins (LTX MS 2 s) for the same rig at 162000 miles. They've been good tires. Held up well and are worth the money. Michelin has had a good reputation since forever and I work too hard for my cash to spend it on anything not holding up. These tires probably could go another 10,000 (rotated regularly), but they don't owe me a thing and I'm happy to replace them with another solid set. Thanks for not pushing junk on the market and having a quality product.

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.

Love my tires

On my Chevy Silverado HD Diesel pick up they are great for mileage over the other tires I have used. Traction is great in wet weather and snow also. I will be replacing them with new ones the same when they wear out. I will get about 50,000 miles as opposed to 35-40,000 on previous brands.

76,600+ miles

Just bought my third set of these tires for my RAM 1500. The last set had 76,600 miles on them and still had 5/32. Each set has been great. Great handling in all types of weather and low noise. Regular tire rotation kept wear even throughout their life. Couldn't be happier.

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT TIRE !!!

These are the best all season tires I've owned! have had them on my F150 for 2 years now and still have plenty of tread - Amazing traction in the Colorado snow/ice! I also tow a trailer and they are sturdy built tires! I don't understand how anyone can complain of these being a noisy tire in the reviews that I read. They are an extremely quite and comfortable ride even at 80psi when towing (275/70/18 E 10ply tires) Would buy them again!

Fantastic overall!

This is the best tire on my vehicle! I bought my Volvo XC60 with Continentals on it, they were okay but got very noisy as they aged. While most tires do get louder with age, I got fed up and replaced them with Michelins that were supposedly specifically for Crossover vehicles. Those were quiet and comfortable but didn't last but 3 years. Now replacement time came again, and I really didn't like the choices for decent 'Crossover' tires especially for the prices and wear factor. Then I remembered back when I had my Land Rovers they both had the LTX tires. Those wore like iron, great traction in any weather, and never had vibration issues. I was delighted to see these were available for the Volvo. Now living in Florida I really had no concern about traction in the snow but, wet weather (we get some heavy rains) between the all wheel drive and these tires wet roads were almost as if they were dry. Handling was every bit as good as it ever was. I knew due to the blocky tread design they weren't going to be quiet, but to my surprise there was only a slight hum, and with the unibody construction of the Volvo noise transfer is very much a part of life. After having driven this for over a year with these tires, I wish I had put these on years ago. I'm sure these tires will outlast my ownership of the vehicle.
