Rain or shine, hot or ...

Rain or shine, hot or cold, these tires perform very well. My Rav4 is not an open road vehicle. Despite being a 4wd manual transmission I don't go off road except to pull people out of a ditch. So I can't speak to those situations. Around town I love how my Michelin's have given my Rav4 a great ride that I can be confident about.

Smooth Ride

Replaced all 4 tires on my 2020 Odyssey about 7 weeks ago. Did a lot of “research” / read a lot of websites before settling on them. Was concerned about a possible drop in MPG. Haven’t experienced that, and they ride so smooth I forgot what the original tires felt like. I would definitely buy these again.

Not at all satisfied

Purchase these tire based on past experience with Michelin. Returned the next day with a vibration thought it was bad balancing, the second balancing did nothing complained with no results. A few weeks later went to my dealer and had the tires balanced again but to no avail. Returned to the supplier that I staled them and was told the they had found a problem with some on these tires. Asked for resolution and was told it was complicated. Finally they will replace these defective tires but I will have to pay for the wear on them. This is not rite as I have been complains since day one. No happy about this at all.

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.

Exactly as advertised

Just replaced the tires on my pickup and couldn't be more satisfied. Nice and quiet at any speed, smooth and stable, just as advertised! I like the performance and the design, only wish that they'd be available in white letters. Great product, keep up the good work!

More than happy with these tires

I recently purchaced a 2017 Chevy Colorado. The tires that came on it were possibly ok can't really evaluate them as I replace them with the Michelins promptly after purchasing the truck. The reason I replaced the original tires was due to previously having LTX tires on my previous truck that lasted 11years with no problems, a smooth and quiet ride and excellent performance. I am very happy with your products and will continue to purchase them. Bill Kashmark

GREAT TIRES

Michelin in my opion are THE BEST TIRE on the market. Have had them on all my vehicles. Replaced the set on my GMC Pick/up (daily driver) after 75,000 + miles with a new set of Michelins, and put the old set on the farm Pick/up last year. Also have them on the Wife's Yukon and they have 60,000 + miles on them and still have plenty of tread left. You won't get that kind of ware out any of your competitors!

You make a GREAT tire!!!

My first set of this tire lasted through 130,000 miles and I am now on my second set of the same one. Traction in snow is far beyond reasonable expectation...they are reasonably quiet and comfortable...the best I can find for my Explorer. What more can I say? I have absolutely no complaints and have even convinced my wife to put Michelins on her Honda.

Better than factory tires

On my 2017 RAM 1500 Limited, the factory tires lasted as expected, about 17k miles. I've been a Michelin LTX fan for about 15 years. The Defender LTX MS didn't disappoint. They have a MUCH smoother ride than the factory tires ever did and handle very well. I've had them a few months now and can't yet see treadwear, but I know from Michelin experience they will last many many years.

I always buy reliable Michelin Tires!

I do a lot of driving in all kinds of weather and road conditions. Michelin Tires have never let me down, steady and true in a rainy downpour and reliable traction in snow and changing road conditions. Since I usually have children along, their safety is top priority. Thanks to Michelin Tires, I have never had any trouble on the road.
