These are the second set ...

These are the second set of 235 R 16 LTX MS tires. The first set lasted 70,000 miles. The tires ride, road noise, and overall performance are excellent for a truck tire.When it comes time to purchase tires for our other 2 vehicles, we will buy Michelin.

LTX M/S wears like iron!

I put a set of LTX M/S tires on my 1994 chevy pick-up ten years ago. I have plowed snow, towed a camper, towed a boat and towed a dirt bike trailer. The tires have performed great under all of those conditions. They have good traction without being noisey on the highway but the best thing is they wear like iron! The tires have over 100,000 miles and still have 4/32 of tread left. I'm in the process of rebuilding the truck for my son so it looks like its time for a new set of Michelins.

EXCELLENT, EXCELLENT TIRE !!!

These are the best all season tires I've owned! have had them on my F150 for 2 years now and still have plenty of tread - Amazing traction in the Colorado snow/ice! I also tow a trailer and they are sturdy built tires! I don't understand how anyone can complain of these being a noisy tire in the reviews that I read. They are an extremely quite and comfortable ride even at 80psi when towing (275/70/18 E 10ply tires) Would buy them again!

If it's not Michelin, I'm not interested

My son has an older model Jeep Cherokee Limited with over 150K miles. The Jeep had set of Michelin tires which we loved the ride and the durability. We visited a local retail shop and they had sold out of the Michelin for that size car. The salesman recommended several high quality tires that he had in stock as an alternative. After considering his pitch, I simply said "If it's not a Michelin, I am not interested." Interestingly the saleman replied, "I think you are right. No question, Michelin is the best tire." After some reseach, I was able to find a set, ordered them and waited a couple of day for the tires to arrive. It was absolutely worth it. We drive the Jeep in mixed conditions; rain, snow, mountain gravel roads and interstates. Thanks Michelin for making such a great product!

Smooth ride

Picked up a 2019 Nissan Titan pickup with Goodyear tires, after one highway trip I noticed a slight vibration at 65 mph. Thought about it for about one second and had my local tire shop order me a set of defender 275/20’s. The tires are 33 inch anyway put on Michelin’s and the truck is as smooth as silk. Good thing there is a tire company that can make a big tire with some precision. Another happy customer

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!

long lasting tire

I replaced a set of big lug mud and snow tires that were horrible in the snow, these tire bite the snow and ice and brought back confidence on the snowy Vermont roads I travel in the winter. Just about every drive home was in a snowstorm, these tires perform well.

Amazing tires

This is my third set of the LTX MS tires. My daughter and I both have these on our SUVs my husband has the AT2's on his Excursion which he absolutely loves! I also have a blazer with the LTX MS , and have Michalin passenger tires on my Honda Accord! When I go to the tire shop for new tires they always try to sell me a different brand and I stop them in their tracks and say I only want Michelin tires! They have a smooth comfortable ride and they last a very long time well over 60,000 miles!

Will NOT Balance... and keep getting worse!

I have been buying Michelin LTX tires for many years now too include the MS/2 version. Without hesitation the LTX MS/2 were the best tires I have ever seen put on a truck. However with the advent of their new Defender series, I can honestly say they are the worst LTX tires they have ever made, they just will not balance out, the more I drive them the more they shake and shimmy. Last pair of LTX MS/2 had 115,000 miles on them, my 2002 Z71 Tahoe... LT285/70/17. The old tires had a better ride than the new tires do, (Defenders)... Shame, time to find another tire and manufacturer, never thought I would be saying that about the LTX Dave

Great Ride, high mileage

This is my second set of Michelins. The first set got me close to 60,000 miles, and I am hoping to get the same out of the 2nd set. These tires are smooth, quiet and offer a very comfortable ride. They are a little more expensive than other brands but they last longer so it actually saves you time and money in the long run.
