When they have a michelin brand why would you go anywhere else.

bought the tires as a replacement for my 2019 Toyota? Tundra, 4 wheel drive tires are fantastic in the snow. Tires are very smooth. I used a decimal meter to compare the noise level with the previous set of tires. I had and they are quiet as a mouse plan to enjoy these tires for the next eighty thousand miles

Smooth Quiet & Responsive

2018 4Runner do not buy these tires if you are looking for curb appeal. These tires are as plain jane, no cool factor or attitude at all. But they are quiet, smooth & responsive. I have driven in mud snow rain, no problem. I would say overall this tire checks 99.9% of what you want out of a tire. The toyota avalon of tires lol not pretty buy super solid

Lots of Lost mileage!

Back in May of 2019 I purchased a full set of 4 - 235/55R19 Michelin Defender LTX tires for our Ford Flex. I'd always been comfortable with Michelin tires for the quality of their construction and safe handling while driving. I also bought them for their mileage warranty! These came with a 65,000 miles guarentee! As of today Saturday 10/25/2025 my vehicle mileage is 89,497, and when I purchased these tires my mileage was approximately 05/09/2019 was 63,067 leaving a total mileage on the tires is only 26,430. My tires are in need of replacement "NOW", as they're only an 1/8th of an inch or less from reaching the wear indicaters in the tires, and the requiring new tires.

Very disappointed. Returned them.

I was very disappointed with these tires. They were noisy, rode roughly, and couldn't be balanced correctly. Luckily my dealer took them off and switched them to Toyo tires. There's no comparison! My dealer told me that Michelin tires are going down in quality. I hated to hear that as I'd always been a loyal customer.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Tire – Smooth, Quiet, and Built to Last

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Tire – Smooth, Quiet, and Built to Last I couldn’t be happier with the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 tires. From the moment they were installed, the ride quality was noticeably smoother and quieter than anything I’ve run before. Highway driving is exceptionally stable and comfortable, even on long trips, and road noise is minimal. Wet traction is excellent and they inspire confidence in changing conditions. Steering feels solid and predictable, and the overall ride has a very “OEM-plus” feel — refined, controlled, and comfortable. These tires truly shine for highway miles and daily driving. What really sets them apart is the balance: comfort, durability, and performance all in one. You can tell these are built with quality materials and thoughtful engineering. They’re not the cheapest option, but you absolutely get what you pay for — longevity, safety, and peace of mind. If you want a premium all-season tire that delivers a smooth ride, long tread life, and dependable performance, the Defender LTX M/S2 is worth every penny. Highly recommended.

Best You Can Put on Your Pickup

My 2004 F150 is on its 2nd set. The first set went over 100,000 and my 2nd set has 75,000 and still has good life left. The Michelins are the only replacement tires that balanced out smooth and road very quiet. The long wear is a great bonus! Purchased 2015.

Amazing tires

I have a lifted Ford F150 and I had a big mud tires and it was a ROUGH and LOUD ride. I had the Michelin Defenders installed today and it’s like a completely different truck. It rides SO MUCH better and quiet it’s hard to believe. I don’t write a lot of reviews, but these tires are truly amazing and deserve a five star review.

New tires prior customer

I've purchased Michelin tires previously and I've been very pleased with the durability performance and handling. The tires have produced a very smooth ride. Please note the tires I'm reviewing are based on previous purchases not these particular tires.
