I bought these tires for ...

I bought these tires for my Ford Edge base on recommendations from friends. So far I have been very happy with their performance. They ride great and are quiet. They have also performed well in the snow here in Michigan. We are so happy with the tires, we are looking at getting them for our Ford F150.

Cross Country and a summer in Colorado!

I purchased the Michelin’s for my Silverado used to travel to-and-from New England and Colorado. The trip is 2,100 miles each way and then we alternate between paved and gravel roads in CO. The tires give a smooth and comfortable ride traveling cross country. When in CO, they are rugged enough to provide good traction on gravel and in the mud. Yet they are versatile enough to corner beautifully on the paved mountain roads. Not my first set of Michelins; certainly not my last. In fact we have similar Michelins on our other cars.

I have used the LTX M/S tire on my 4Runner since the first replacement set were installed. The "other" OEM tires were not worn out either. These are the smoothest, best wearing, quietest tires you can put on any SUV, period. I always recommend Michelins to my friends.

Good looking tire not quality

They look very sharp and clean looking on my truck bought they don’t hold up that long. I bought a set of these brand new for my 2005 Chevy Silverado Duramax made it about 30,000 miles before I had to get new tires because they wore out so much. They were less than a year old.

Not what it first appears to be.

This tire has performed very well on my E-350 van. The only drawback to date has been the break in period for tire squirm. The tall tread pattern made for soft steering. It took approximately 1,000 miles of driving to break in the tire and now it is functioning much like I had expected.

My local service station ...

My local service station talked me into another major brand of tire to replace my worn LTX Michelins. I developed a wobble in the front end of my Chevy Tahoe that I never had before. They balanced the tires, rotated them, did an alignment, shocks, etc. and could not cure the problem. Finally they replaced the tires with a new set of the same brand and I still had the wobble. I finally took my truck to a Chevy dealer and they told me the tires were out of round. I replaced the tires with new Michelin LTX M/Ss and never had the problem again. That was 70,000 mile ago and they're still in great shape. I'll always use Michelin. Great tires!

89000 miles and tread still great

I just bought another set of Michelin LTX M/S tires for my Ford Explorer. My last set lasted more than 15 years and 89000 miles and still had 7mm or original tread left. Good running for all those years. No cupping or other problems at all until recent slow leaks developed. I have been buying only Michelin tires for the last 45 years and will never buy another brand.

GREAT IN RAIN, BUT DON'T GET STATED MILEAGE

This is not my 1st set of these tires on present and previous Tahoe's and while great on wet roads this set of 4 tires is wearing the worst of all previous sets. The dealer rotates the tires every 5000 miles and they are all wearing evenly from outside edges to center of the tires. However with 50,000 miles there is no way I will be able to run these tires for the length of the stated and advertised warranty of 70,000 miles. All previous sets went the full 70,000 miles but not these. I have been told by some tire dealers that Michelin was sold just before I purchased these tires and the rubber is not the same compound as previous LTX M/S2. Considering the premium price these tires cost, I will need to consider other brands for the next purchase.

Smooth and Quiet - Excellent Traction

Smooth and Quiet - Excellent Traction Just put a set on my wife's Grand Cherokee Ltd. . So far, excellent handling on any road type, quiet and secure feeling while driving at any speed. Have M/S's on my Commander and love them too. Best tire for endurance, range and quality for the price.

2nd set of Michelin Tires

I have a 97 Nissan pathfinder, first set of Michelin tires were the LTX/MS2 they lasted me close to 70K miles , after that I got this defender LTX/MS since the MS2 version is discontinued. I love this tires, after the tires replacement you can fell the change like day and night. Super Smooth ride, a little of improve in miles per gallon. For me this tires are the best in the market.
