Great Tire

This tire was highly rated in all the research I did, and it hasn't disappointed. I've had these about 9 months and in all weather conditions they've provided excellent traction, while wearing well. That's a huge change from the stock tires that came with my Highlander, which wore out in 40,000 miles. Sure, the better tread is a little louder, and it cut a mile or two off my gas mileage, but I'm glad I bought the LTX tires and will be looking at Michelins for my wife's car next.

I just installed my ...

I just installed my second set of LT M/S 108s. The first set lasted 110 thousand miles and still had 4/32 of tread left! We have a lot of rain in FL and the wet weather braking was exceptional. The tires were balanced when they were first installed and there was never a sign of vibration for their entire life. I never did anything special other than watching the inflation pressure and rotating them on a regular basis. We keep our vehicles for a long time and I am sure the new set will perform equally as well as the first.

Guess Mine are Magnetic

Don't know how,don't know why....but I can't get these tires to last. I've used nothing but since buying my Ridgeline in 2006. Seems right after I get a new tire, it finds a new nail. My wife and I both travel the same roads ( we work at same place just different shifts ) different brand,no problems

Great tires

I took advantage of the deal my local tire dealer had on Michelin LTX Defender tires for my Ford f150. The ride is very quiet and smooth. This is my 3rd set of Michelin tires and I'm about to buy another set for my wife's car. I won't buy anything else! Michelins are the best .

Smooth

Recommend by a coworker who has them. I'm very happy with my purchase, smooth ride, excellent grip and they supposedly last many miles. Just drove them on our first Wisconsin slippery winter conditions for the season and my new Michelin Defenders handled it great.

outstanding tire that keeps going& going

We got our first set on a used vehicle, we drove it all the time in all kinds of weather and had no issues! The tires we had on our other vehicles were wearing out and dry rotted within the 1st year of having them. We were replacing them all the time and theses Michelin tires kept on going and going like the energizer bunny. So we said enough is enough and we replaced the rest of the cars with Michelin tires too. Lets just say the tires out lived the cars. So now that is the only tire we look at and will buy. And we will make sure our kids do the samething. So what ever you are putting in that tire Michelin don't change a thing, it is perfect.

70K Maintenance-Free Miles

Only now am I forced to replace the front tires, and that's primarily due to my AWD 4Runner's tendency to abuse the front rubber (and a September registration renewal). Rear tires have 15K+ miles of tread remaining, and this is from a guy who pays little attention to air pressures. Michelin has never disappointed me, and even though there are less expensive options, they are also cheaper in almost every respect. My next purchase will be another set of Defenders, without question.

Nice tires

The tires have a great ride and feel. I have noticed that I am getting about 2 miles per gallon less than my old tires. I realize it could be a variety of things but my driving habits are about the same. It is the beginning of winter so maybe that has something to do with it.

Great 3 season tires!

I bought these tires more than a year ago. I call them 3 season tires as we have 6 months of snow tire necessity in the north. I always buy the best I can afford and Michelin is a very good price for the quality. My wife and I both feel safe on wet or dry pavement and I have found that the road noise in our SUV has decreased dramatically since changing to Michelin. I have always leaned toward Michelin for the reasons above and lastly, if we get caught in an early snowstorm or ice storm I will always feel safe. We have the Defender LTX M/S

Should have known to always buy Michelin....

I have Michelins on 2 of 3 of my trucks. I decided to 'save a few bucks' and went with Bridgestones. I was not happy with the performance since day one. They lasted about 40k miles and were horrible. Two of them leaked and had to be pumped up weekly. I'm back on to Michelins and I won't stray again!
