Disappointed after 6 years

Bought set of 4 in Jan 2019. Put 50,000 miles on them and the massive cracks between the tread valleys are extremely troubling. All 4 tires have the massive cracks. I have a lot of tread left (65%), but I can't bring myself to drive with them because of how bad the cracks are. I've never seen cracks this bad on tires that are 10 years old let alone 6. Not spending my $ on these again.

I love my tires

I drive a 2500 Silverado. My husband told me to buy my own tires, since I complained about the ones he bought. I did my reserch and decided on Michelin. I found a very good price. My ride has been very smooth. we live on a gravel road and they have held up wonderfully. We also farm and the truck and tires get alot of wear. They have kept their tred. I will buy Michelin again.

Best Tires Ever Purchased

Absolutely the best tires I have ever purchased. Not only do they handle the road surfaces, they wear evenly and for a greater mileage distance. Others just don't measure up. They outperform their competitors hands down. Better tread design and lettering also gives them a hands up as far as appearance is concerned. On the road or dunes as I travel for fishing, you can rely on Michelin. Rain, snow, mud, or sand, these tires can handle quick accelerations or sudden stops.

Best tire for your daily driver Truck!

I had these tire on my 2014 F150 FX4 and they were the best tires I’ve ever had. Smooth and quiet but still offered great grip in rain, snow and light off-roading. The best part is I got well over the 70,000 miles they are guaranteed for and probably could have gone further but I was taking a trip and wanted fresh tires. I hope they make an EV rated version of this tire for my next truck before the factory tires need replacement. If they do I’m in!

Great tires, I have run two sets, looking for my third!

I run these tires on my Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 Cummins Quad Cab. It's my second set now , I get about 80,000 km's out of them now and I'm just looking here to see size options as I'm going to need to replace them before the snow flys. I have considered other tires but in the end I'm not prepared to put up with any tire noise or ride issues. These Defenders are amazing, quiet, smooth, accurate, great traction in wet, snow, mud. Just need to find a dealer that can get me a good price as they are expensive but they are worth it for sure. My truck was stock with 265-70-17, but I have been running 285-70-17 with amazing results, my truck when not pulling a trailer will get 10.2 Lphkm, about 29 mpg at 110 kph.

Best Tires Ever Purchased

I purchased the tires when I had 46,590 miles on the SUV. I now have over 98,800 miles on the unit. There is still quite a bit of tread on the tire, I have had no problems with the tires and would definitely would purchase the same tire again. I placed them on my Lincoln MKX

Not sure what these other reviews are complaining about

I have used bought 2 sets of Defender LTX M/S for my 2013 Toyota Highlander and each time I have been very pleased with both the wear and performance of these tires. First set lasted around 70-80K miles and the current set has been on for ~20K miles and look barely used. These tires have lasted much better than the Bridgestone tires that originally came on the vehicle and also ride much smoother. Just got back from a road trip (8 hours there, 8 hours back) and several times literally thought to myself how pleased I was with the smoothness of the ride. I can only guess that the other reviewers with poor reviews are either fake or there is some other issue other than the tires (wheel alignment or bent rim or installation issues). I use Michelin on all of my vehicles and I have recommended Defenders to multiple of my friends based on my experience with these tires and all of them have been very pleased also.

The Best of the best

I have been buying Michelin tires for over 45 years. This is the set has lasted 3 years and perform as good as the first day. The set before this lasted over 9 years. They just don't wear out. If you keep them rotated and balanced and alinement you will get long tread life from them. I love the performance in both on and off the road because I drive up to the ranch on dirt and gravel roads. These tires are the best tire on the market today and are the best I have ever owned. They are smooth and quiet riding on the highway. Don't be fooled by moucho looking brands these tires will out perform any other brand hands down you can take my word on that. I have had very heavy loads in my truck and they handle them very well. These are the best tires made in the world.

On my last set of MS tires I did have one tire that seemed to growl when it was on the right front where I guess I could hear it better. Thinking the noice was a wheel bearing, I had asked the service technician to check the bearing but he said it was the tire.

I am on my second set of ...

I am on my second set of these tires and I would not buy anything else. They have been the most reliable and high quality tire I have ever had on a vehicle. On both sets, I have gotten well over the estimated miles. The ride is great and I appreciate Michelin's desire to have the best product possible. Hooray for Michelin.
