When Excellence is your only option

I have been an Undercarriage Specialist for a number of years. I've worked for several major tire companies and a few new car dealerships. I've been involved in the design of custom off-road and race track suspensions. I understand the geometry and physics of achieving maximum performance from a tire. Most importantly, I've experienced the quality and performance of many brands of tires. From my early years as a Front End Alignment mechanic, I noticed the Michelin Tire presented the least amount of problems and failures, and always has. In the long run, Michelin is the most inexpensive form of safety and reliability I could purchase.

Good braking but a little more noise than normal

I love Michelin tires and have always been pleased with them. I purchased these and traded them for a different Michelin because they made a lot of noise when I was driving on the highway. It may have been a defective tire in the mix, it was hard to tell. The service department traded them out for me. The tires did brake well and handled well in the rain.

Great winter traction

I live in central Maine and our driveway is about 600 ft long and gets icy during the winter months. I have had no problems getting up the hill in all snow and ice conditions. Very happy with the performance of the tires.

Love my Michelin tires

I have been a Michelin customer since 1982. I have had many vehicles and have always used Michelin tires. The grip in rainy weather makes me feel secure. The durability is fabulous.

Confidence in any weather

245/65/R17 Second set in 10 years through some crazy winters. Working for a snow removal company I needed to be at work and Defender LTX always made that possible! Excellent tire and worth every penny!

Working fine

So far, so good. Only 3000 miles on them, but holding up well. They are working fine on the 2019 Ram 3500. Worked well cornering and pulling our 36’ 5th wheel through the mountains.

I Don't think i would purchase michelin, these tires were warranty for 70k miles and they worn out sooner. They were rotated every 5k miles. and they still worn out sooner 55k miles.

Decided get these set of tires on my truck since the last set of michelin's held up very well. Very happy customer and plan on getting two more sets for my other vehicles.

Defender LTX M/S

Quieter and smoother ride than the Factory OE tires which didn't last as long as I thought they would. Better grip in wet/snowy conditions than I expected.
