most milage for the buck, great tire

I live in the in an area that has chip seal roads. these are the most unforgiving roads on tires. I have 2 4x4 autos. the least milage I have recevied was 21000 miles on a set of tires, not Michelin. next set when needed on my auto will be the Michelin as I know the result from using Michelin. also installed Michelin on my fathers suberu, still on after many miles and in good shape. thank you-

Tires only lasted 30K miles

Have these tires due to 70K mile warranty. At 20K miles, noticed extreme wear on the front. Realized had not completed rotation. Began rotating tires, but to no avail. Tread worn completely across entire tire on 2 of them. 2 remaining tires also low on tread. Likely 10K left on those. Have bought at least 5 other sets of Michelin’s (LTX MS & LTX MS2). All lasted at least as long as the warranty. Not these. Tire dealer said nothing can be done for warranty. Pretty disappointing. These tires are not cheap.

was expecting better wear - honestly

Have put on about 20,000 mile on these - medium use and mostly highway. wearing down pretty quickly in less than 1 year. not my previous experience with the Defender tires - they lasted 100k+ miles. Michelin - am questioning why I paid a premium for durability based upon previous performance now. Hopefully they will last. Don't appear to handle dirt/gravel roads as well as advertised/expected. I only buy this brand and this model for my p/u and SUVs. Am reconsidering now with my newest experience.

Best tires made

I have been a Michelin tire user for many years. I have put michelins on two Suburbans,two Chevy Silverados,two Jeeps and a Ford Expedition. The tires wore as advertised and regularly exceeded the mileage noted. That's all I use and will continue to ride on Michelin rubber.

The best truck tire on the market

I have owned several sets of these tires on various trucks and suv's. I can say that they are absolutely the best truck tire on the market. I consistently get 70-90k miles out of each set. Low noise and great handling. I could not ask for a better tire. I am now using a LTX2 set. I hope they are just as good or better than the original.

8 Years

I purchased these tires for my FWD Honda Element in 2006. They have lasted me about 120,000 miles and 8 years. There are sometimes it was poor in snow, but I always made it through. This is a good long lasting tire. Since they longer make it in my size I now have the Latitude Tour, and will use winter tires in the winter.

Installed 17 Years & Still Great Tread & Running Smooth

Had 4 of these put on my truck in 2003 and all still have good tread and have had ZERO issues. Changing these out for 4 new Michelins X LT AS just because of age. Decided to go with the other model due to the reviews here and I hope it will not be a mistake.

These are the best tires ...

These are the best tires we have ever purchased. We paid a little more for them but it was well worth it. We installed these tires on our GMC Yukon Denali when we had 20k miles on it and now at 115k miles its time to replace them. Very comfortable and quiet ride. Will definitely be purchasing these tires again.

Fantastic Tire

We live in Colorado so a good snow tire is essential. My wife drives a 2007 Honda Pilot FWD. The Michelin LTX tires are so good in the snow, I don't feel the need to switch to a 4WD for our next vehicle. They plow through the snow easily with confidence. We received 14 inches of snow one day here in the Front Range and we had to travel to Loveland for a school outing. I was a bit nervous on how the car would handle with that much snow. I was amazed at how the tires and car handled with that much snow on the road. Not even 4WD would have made a difference. I highly recommend the LTX tires as we've gone above our expected tread life by 15,000 miles and the traction in wet/snowy weather is four stars.

love the tires

I use my LTX M/S tire on my everyday truck and just love them traction is superb in all conditions and the road noise is almost non existent on these. The mileage on the tires is excellent as well and with proper rotation they run true for the life of the tire. The only con I can think of, is of course is the price on them but you get all that you pay for for sure. I have them on both of my trucks and just love them.
