"WHAT CHALLANGE, BRING IT ON!"

Simply put, the ride is exceptional, great performance, tracking, steering road conditions, tire treadlife. Only downfall is the white outline tires. The way your bonding process is? ( i WAS TOLD THIS BY YOUR REPRESENTATIVE(S) SEE ANY HISTORY, warranty adjustments/ claims...). Had sidewall cracking. Not sure if this could pose a danger, did not want to take that chance. Hoping you would solve this issue, I PURCHASED ONE OF YOUR SIDELINES B.F. GOODRICH, hoping by the time I had to replace them and come back to these tires, this problem would be solved. Currently watching this...

Excelent tire

I have a pair of these on my 99 ram 2500 (24v cummins) i do over the road transport hauling a enclosed car trailer, I rack up lots of miles and often go from new england through the mid west, sometimes to california and back, so i cover lots of terain, and tempatures, the tires have NEVER failed me, the ware evenly, grip well, ride smothly even under the stress of a load, and when the trucks empty they handle high speeds well ( the truck has some mods on it invcluding a smarty tuner) I will definatly buy another pair of these tires when they warout, i read some other peoples reviwes on this tire, it's a shame some have had dryrot problems, I have some very minor dryrot on my side walls, but not enough to compromise the tire, I find that using armorall on them frequently seems to help as it has rubber conditioners, though i don't these other peoples individual stories, I suppose it could be location, or lack of use, but in any case, I can only speak to my experience which has been great 5 stars from me!

Best tires for towing heavy loads

I have had several sets of these tires over 15 yrs of towing my boat following the Salmon runs of 2 Greatlakes. As the years gone by the boats have gotten bigger requiring heavier pickups to pull them. My current boat is 14,000 LBS and pull it with a single wheel GMC 3500 HD Diesel. I fish alot and towed alot, these tires are rock solid for the serious towing vehicle that tows more than a few miles to the ramp. They're not All-Terrain tires, All Terrains couldn't hold up to the heat and abuse these things are subjected to in my application. If you're looking for a long lasting heavy duty no worries tire for your investment this is it. If not get a set of nobby All -Terrains for the sound.

Awesome Tire for all around use

I've changed the tires that came w/ my Honda Pilot to the LTX M/S. We drive onto the beach in DE, w/ 6 other families. We all have these tires. From my stand point; there are 2 big pluses I have seen. When driving onto the beach I only have to drop the pressure down to 25 psi and most of the time I don't have to drive in 4x4. The second feature is the way these tire handle in the wet weather, one word AWESOME! I would recommend thses to a friend, because friends have highly recommened them to me.

Great tires, comfort ride.

I drive about 100 miles a day and I am completely satisfied with these tires. The ride is smooth and quiet. I would recommend these to anyone and I have. We don't get alot of rain in southern california but when we do I feel sfae and insured that these tires will maintain traction and controlability.

Excellent tires

Tires have been on this vehicle for two weeks tops. first bad ice/snow storm we got 2/4/2022 upstate ny. WOW this vehicle performed 110% didn’t slide all over even when I tried to make it loose traction, last month we had snow and I was running the stock Bridgestone dueler tires that came with the vehicle. What a joke them tires are. If Michelin continue to make these tires my 2022 highlander will soon get a brand new pair of defenders LTX m/s. I’m probably just going to remove the Goodyear tires that came with the vehicle. Great job Michelin..

Weak sidewall

I sliced the side wall open while driving on hard top on a pice of lumber at low speed. Only 12,000 K on the set. Now wether to replace two or all four as its a 4X4. Disappointing, good fuel economy and ride though. Maybe I would have better luck with AT/2? Its the sort of failure I associate with off road use.

Much improved ride

Needed new tires for my 2018 Honda CR-V and wanted to improve the ride quality. These tires nailed it! Much improved in both the ride handling, smoothness, and lower road noise inside the vehicle. Also simply feels more sure-footed in the rain. Looking forward to seeing a difference in winter snow.

Michelin LTX All Weather Tires

Have had these tires for over a year. Threads are still looking brand new. Come with 80k miles, and come with free rotation from the dealer where they were purchased. Will definitely be putting the same tires when I replace my wife's SUV tires this winter

AWESOME TIRES

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.
