This is my 5 set of the LTX M/S on my 2007 Ridgeline with 485,000 kilometers on it. averaging close to 100K a set with 55 to 60 % hard gravel driving. I was never a Michelin fan until this tire came with the truck. I now wont run anything else at least on the Ridgeline. Carry the load rating nicely and I have only had 1 unexpected flat since the truck was new.

On the drive home from the shop I could tell these are my favorite all season tires I have ever owned. There are quieter than I had hoped for, but I was surprised how much smoother the drive was, something I had not noticed in similar range tires that I have owned. The last time I felt the tires made a big difference was we with X-Ice tires.

We have been experiencing very poor driving conditions, however, our Michelin Defender LTX M/S tires have been excellent in assisting with our driving safety. Everyone should drive according to the conditions no matter what type of tires your car has on it. Our Michelin's are excellent in every way. Our Lexus RX350 has better control since we had our Michelin's put on. We simply feel safer.

Have had these tires on my car since 2008 (180,000 Kim's later ) I can not where them out, normal maintenance and rotation, no flats but starting to crack a little on sides so will have to buy new ones soon. Well worth every cent and great for winter and summer, no need to get winter tires with these.

Defender LTX M/S are outstanding*. Ride, comfort, grip, handling & braking are outstanding. Noise reduced exponentially. Other Michelins & brands may start out this strongly but based on previous experience & research, these Defender LTX M/S tires will** surpass all, certainly most all others. Name a better tire? I'll buy it! *More driving time of course, in various weather and road conditions, and at varying or higher speeds for longer duration is needed to establish baseline to test limits, etc. **Defender research shows some manufacturing problems Michelin must resolve. I want & expect less risk, more certainty. Michelin can do it!

Smooth comfortable quiet ride with great handling and load rating.

Very smooth, and quiet on all surfaces. Good traction cornering in the rain.

Michelin is the best. Don't put your family in danger.

Not as quiet as I expected them to be for an all season radial of this caliber.

SEEM A LOT QUIETER THAN MY LAST TIRES
