Good high mileage tires

These tired have been on my 1997 Chevy 1500 for several years and probably near 100000 miles. My driving is mostly on good paved roads in Mississippi. Usually hot and dry or hot and wet conditions. Not much ice and snow. Have not had any problems with these tires. Highly recommend the LTX M/X tires.

Fantasic tire

Bought a set of these tires in October 2016. I now have over 5000 miles on these tires and I can not say enough good things about them. These tires give a great sense of stability on wet or dry roads. The tires are very quiet on all of the road surfaces that I have encountered here in Texas. These tires were a great buy for my Jeep Grand Cherokee!

I came to know about ...

I came to know about Michelin LTX's while I was the shop forman at a large dealership dealing with alot of complaints about front tires whitling off on the edges. After checking front ends for alignments issues still had problems with competors tires replaced them with Michelin LTX and problem went away. I belive it is due to the excelent sidewall constrution of the tire preventing tire rollover, this also is why Michelin is the only tire I will put on my vehicles because the better the sidewall constrution, the better the ride .

Tires are good for what ...

Tires are good for what it does. Good tracing in the snow and they last a long time. A few gripes that I have is the loud road noise that comes from the tires at high speeds. In addition, two of the four tires I bought were not good since even after multiple balancing and even having my rims checked for deformities, the tires would wobble when the car was in motion. Brought it up with the place where I bought it from and they said it was all right, but my mechanic said that should not be the case and that the tires should be like the other non-problematic one.

A world of difference

First accumulating snow in Michigan 2013. From the trip in, to the trip home with new tires; these new LTX m/s made a world of a difference. The sure grip was very noticeable. No where near the slip and slide at stopping or acceleration. Good choice of tires on my Explorer.

A great tire would buy again

I purchased these set of tires when the other tires wore out. I have them on a half ton truck. They handle grrreat and they are lasting a long time. I keep the truck well service for allingmnents and rotation of them. Hardly any wear shown on these tires.

Good All Around SUV tire

I have had two sets of these tires. One set on a 4x4 4 dr Chevy Blazer and 4x4 GMC Envoy. These tires are great in the slush and snow of upstate New York. I have great confidence driving in 4x4 with my LTX tires. They are well worth the money except i wish they did not wear so fast. Not a great a ride on the highway as the Cross Terrian tires i previously had.

We were on a cross ...

We were on a cross country trip. The passenger car tires were not holding up to pulling a trailer. With a sense of urgency we purchased new tires. Had never purchased Michelins before as I thought they were over rated and over priced. The tires were the only thing in stock in my size so the purchase was made. Putting the LT tires on the van greatly reduced the side to side sway and increased overall stability and safety. Even with the trailer unhitched there was a marked improvement in handling. The van now has a bit harsher ride due to the LT tires. It is worth the truck like feel for better stability. Being light in the rear I had always had problems in rain and snow. Now my wife is not afraid to drive the van on wet roads and light snow. Rotating on a regular basis I was able to get 80,000 miles out of these tires. And yes they were replaced with the same tire.

Great Tires, time will tell

I've had this tread pattern on several vehicles, and the tires outlast my interest in the vehicle. When trading the vehicle, the tires are a selling point. In this case ( Oct 26 2017) I've removed the factory installed Latitude TourHP from my new 2017 RAV4 Hybrid XLE ( quiet, smooth, appear to be low rolling resistance, but do not appear to be well suited for winter or rainy near freezing weather, despite "M+S" inscription on sidewall) , and replaced with these Defender LTX M&S as an all weather tire. They are great so far, but I get the impression they do not roll as effortlessly as the Latitude Tours. Perhaps they need to be "broken in"?

pretty disappointed

I have had these tires for about two years now. There is just over 40,000 kilometers on them and I'm not likely to get another 10,000 out of them. To be fair the stock tires were no better but the rating on the defenders was a lot more than 50,000 kilometers.
