I've been driving since 1983. I've driven a tremendous amount of miles for someone who doesn't make a living driving cargo. I've run the first 2 versions of this line on a Chevy Tahoe 4x4 and Ford F-150 4x4. These tires are amazing. They run noticeably smoother, quieter and longer than OEM tires. They are absolutely the best all purpose on road tire available in our Cleveland and Ohio climate. I know Michelin does not approve running tires too long and I never will again. but our last set, on the Tahoe, ran 117,000 miles when we sold the Tahoe at 260,000 miles. A friend purchased the vehicle and said the tires ran another 10,000 miles.

I have had the Defender on my 2013 Ford Explorer for a few days. I almost didn't buy them because of reviews saying that they are noisy and have poor ride quality. I am glad that I didn't believe those reviews. These tires are as quiet as my old Latitudes and give me a good ride, plus I get the 70,000 mile warranty instead of 55,000 miles. Having the tires for only a few days, I haven't tried the in snow yet, but they have a good tread design to give good traction. I am very pleased with my decision to buy the Defender.

I purchased my LT2s in February 2010. I now 62,000 miles on them. It won't be long before I'll be ready for new tires. I've had such a good experience with the LT2s that intend to buy Defender LTX M/S to replace them. I put Michelin tires on another car I owned and have recommended Michelin to others and all have been very satisfied with their purchase.

I am rating the LTX M/S2 tires that I replaced today (11/17/2016) with Michelin LTX A/T2 tires. I logged a total of 70,752 miles on those LTX M/S2 tires and received service from them for 5 years with no dry rot, no premature aging or premature wear. I could have logged another 3,000 miles on the ones I replaced today but decided to go ahead and install new ones for the winter. I have bought only Michelin tires (after negative experiences with other brands) since 1996. In fact, when I have purchased a new vehicle that wasn't equipped with Michelins, I would immediately replace them with Michelins.

I did a lot of research on my tires. I wanted quiet but aggressive tires for all road conditions. Discussion with the tire supplier was a choice situation. I have ridden on Michelin tires since the 1970's. Michelin has simply improved all along. I have done all types of driving in the NWT, Yukon and outback BC. Paved, gravel, off road and a side wall rock puncture - replaced The thing that made the choice final was the fact that my truck driver neighbour showed my his Michelins on his truck. He said his Defenders have served him well. I also have 6 Michelin LTX tires on our motor home RV. Great product with a great guarantee.

I bought 3 sets of the previous generation version of these tires and was so happy. I couldn't wait to put the updated version on my Suburban. And then I did. Roughest and loudest tires I have ever owned-and I have had aggressive all-terrain tires on this same SUV. When I get close to 70 mph or faster, these tires are unbelievably loud. For the most expensive (or certainly one of) all-season tires you can buy, this is unacceptable. Thought I would just continue buying the best Michelin tires available every time I needed tires. I think that just changed.

I just put a set of 4 Defender LTX M/S tires on my restored 2004 Land Rover Discovery and noticed immediately a smoother, quieter ride. The tires corner and ride extremely well. I just drove through a major rain storm with no problems at all. The tires are still new (driven about 500 miles) and let's see how they hold up over time. So far -- great!

I've had these tires for 10,000 miles now. I commute daily 40 miles and use my truck for construction as my side business. I've had well over 14k with trailer and equipment for on these tires for well over 2000 of those miles and these tires have shown little to no wear. Obviously, they don't have the aggressive tread of other tires but I have gotten around muddy and clay job sites fine. I always use my truck around our farm daily and haven't gotten stuck in my pastures. After running over 20 different brands and treads of tires these are the best of all worlds for highway, work, and farm chores. If you're feeding cows daily in heavy mud I would get a mud terrain tire as my other truck that never hits the highway has, but these are good on your primary rig. Highway driving us superior with the Michelins. Minor, ever so slight noise at higher speeds, but infinitely quieter than any AT I have ever ran. I would go rock crawling with these tires, but great for daily use. I bought 10 ply.

I had previously mentioned how rough and loud these set of tires are. After going back to the tire store, the mechanic suggested I get my U-joint fixed. The took care of the rough ride and the road noise. These are now the Michelin tires that I have come to expect. I appreciate Michelin customer service responding to me very quickly.

Great tires, second set of same tire. Got 64,000 miles out of the old set. Superior nde and traction. Will buy again.
