1.5 years in and now the loudest set of tires

I owned Defenders previously, until 2018 when I replaced them with these current (2011 Highlander SUV). And now at speeds over 40 mph the oscillating sound is so loud and driving me nuts. I read a review when I bought these suggesting they are loud and now I believe it. Don't buy these -I don't know why Michelin can't design a quieter tire for SUVs. They have always been my go-to brand for my sedans.

Disappointed in Denver

Good when they're new, do not last however

I've had problems with two sets of these. Both wore out way too quickly. The first set was on my Wife's Toyota Sequoia and the 2nd on my GMC Yukon. I put 12k miles on these and they are down to 5/32nds. I plan to take my pro-rated warranty and buy a different brand once they reach 4/32. I used to swear by these tires and this brand, but not anymore.

Extremely Solid Choice

I am extremely happy with the purchase of these tires. I have a 2wd Sierra 1500 crew cab and had Goodyear wranglers prior. These Michelins are nice and tall and have a great sidewall look. The highway tread pattern looks great and had performed better. The tires are quiet on the highway and feel sturdy overall maybe slightly harder than I was used to however the beef inspires confidence when towing our 4,500 lb. camper as there is no wallow and the generally feels more capable. I would definitely purchase again.

Best driving characteristics; best value

I just returned from a trip in my Ford F150 from Strathroy Canada to Dallas Texas towing a 7000# trailer and I am more than happy with the control I felt from these tires. Each truck I have bought came with different tires, but when the trucks needed new tires, they were always Michelin.

Terrible Tramlining

I have always liked the performance of my Michelin tires but the tramlining on this set is a definite negative. I truly would not have purchase them had I known that it would be this noticeable. I needed new tires for my Jeep Grand Cherokee and I put on about 35K miles a year so I didn't hesitate getting these as I have never had this problem with other Michelin's on my cars. Very irritating considering half of my daily commute is on grooved pavement.

Pretty disappointing tire

Have had these tires for 6 years now on a 2002 Nissan Xterra. Got them for the mileage warranty and the supposed superior traction. These tires have about 30,000 miles on them and only have 4/32nds left of tread. Definitely did not make the 70,000 miles. They never got any flats though. They have been decent tires in wet weather and snow, but nowhere near dedicated snow tires. They were fairly quiet brand new, but got much louder as they wore down. After 6 years and being on a car that is outside almost all the time, they have developed a good amount of age cracking which is expected from really any tire that sits out in the sun, rain, heat, and cold like they do. For the price of the tire, though, you can get other tires that are nearly the same for much less money. I don't think I'll purchase another set of these tires.

Excellent Quality and Ride

The Michelin Defender LTX are great quality tires and have a luxury ride. I have purchased my second set of these tires. The first set had almost 100,000 miles on them and still were in usable condition. I highly recommend these tires for high mileage and smooth ride.

Replace Goodyear Wranglers with Defenders

Defender is a great tire, could not have picked a better day to replace my Wanglers. Felt like I was driving a different truck with the Michelins final on, quite, good control, ride that feels like your floating. Only draw back to me I always felt like I was driving 10 MPH slower. Had to keep my eye on speed until I adjust to them. Highly recommend.

Very happy

This tire is an excellent choice for hwy. handling. We drove 1200 miles in very wet conditions including storms and noticed immediately how much better the vehicle handled the wet pavement. Is a little noisier but I expected that being this is a SUV.
