Expensive but good for the value

I've had the Michelin Defender tires (Defender T+H for my sedan; LTX M/S for my SUV) on two different vehicles, and both sets impressed me right out of the gate. The first thing you notice is how quiet they are - road noise dropped immediately compared to my old set. Ride comfort also improved, especially on long highway drives. The grip is excellent in dry and wet conditions. Even during heavy rain, I felt in control, with minimal hydroplaning. Handling feels solid and predictable, especially on curvy roads. They're not cheap - but with the long life and consistent performance, they're more of an investment than a splurge. That said, if you don't plan to keep your vehicle long, cheaper tires might make more sense. The installation process was easy, it was just dropped off to the mechanic.

I started using Michelin ...

I started using Michelin Tires 8 years ago. This brand is the only tire I can say will actually last it's mileage and then some. The last set I had, lasted 6 years, and when I had them replaced, the mechanic could not believe how old they were and how many miles they had.

I replaced the OEM tires ...

I replaced the OEM tires on my suburban with a set of Michelin LTX. The LTX tires were more expensive than a set of OEM tires, but the ride quality and lack of road noise made a huge difference in the vehicle. This set of Tires accumulated about 85,000 trouble free, quiet miles before being replaced. I did not notice a significant improvement in traction or an increase in mileage using these all season tires in either snow, rain or mud conditions. Tire wear was excellent and uniform over the life of the tire. If you are looking for a good all season long lasting tire that is quiet and reliable, look at a set of the Michelin LTX.

Michelin always provides a great tire with a great ride

have never had a set of michelins that I did not like, seem easier to balance than other tires. Always ride smooth. Michelins are all I ever buy for my F-150, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and BMW 535i, all ride flawlessly and the tires last well. Best buy on the market!

Wow, what a smooth ride!

I have had these tires on my vehicle for a month now and have truly noticed a difference in the drive on the road. We went on a trip in the North Carolina mountains and the tires were glued to the road on every turn. They were noticably quieter than the previous tires and just improved my overall ride in my 2019 Toyota Highlander. I am extremely impressed and will recommend them to both family and friends.

Happy so far.

Bought these tires after researching options for my 2018 Sierra SLT. Looking for the tire that would give me the best overall ride and still be a "truck" tire. These tires give a super smooth ride and are very quiet. So far they have handled rain/ wet roads with no problems. Living in Michigan, snow will be the next obstacle to tackle. Hope they handle the challenge well.

Tire replacement

You replaced my LTX tires under Warranty, these fit on a 2003 ford E250 cargo van, I always got excellent mileage out of these tires includeing the ones you recalled from me, we replaced these on 239,450 miles, I have 270,418 miles on van at present and the only have 4//32 0f tire tread left, shouldn`t wore down this fast, as I keep my tires balanced and rotated every 5000 miles for life extention . they now have only 30,968 miles on them, this van is on the road and expressway frequently. just curious if this was normal mileage , your warranty states this is a 70,000 mile tire, if so I am 4/32 from being bald, thank you

Pricey tire

These tires replaced the original set of Michelins which had been on my truck for six years. Did not wear the originals out, they simply dry rotted. The new set rides extremely well, brakes well and performs in all types of weather. Of course being in Alabama have not experienced snow or ice. Would definitely purchase another set and do recommend to friends.

Great Ride, high mileage

This is my second set of Michelins. The first set got me close to 60,000 miles, and I am hoping to get the same out of the 2nd set. These tires are smooth, quiet and offer a very comfortable ride. They are a little more expensive than other brands but they last longer so it actually saves you time and money in the long run.

I've been a Michelin ...

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.
