REALLY loud! from a Michelin fan

My 2003 Lexus LX470 has 195,000 miles on it, all with Michelin tires. I installed these Michelin Defender LTX on it, they sound like I'm driving a monster truck. Ride is fine, noise is so unbearable my wife won't drive the vehicle anymore. Wish I could get my old Michelins back.

Been using Michelins for ...

Been using Michelins for 35 years. Had to very off the road to avoid a deer and the shoulder had a drop off. The Michelin's came right back onto the road with out pulling back. The safety of the Grandkids I feel is insured by drivving on Michelins. I recommend them every chance I get. Some people don't want to spend the extra money but in the wear factor and milage I save in the long run. One thing,,,,,Rotate them. I do it at 5000 even though recommended at 7500.

OUTSTANDING TIRES ... SIMPLY THE BEST

These tires are used on an AWD Vehicle year round. There is essentially no road noise from the tires and they just wear and wear and wear with no unusual problems having been encountered. Most trouble free tires I've owned. So good that I use Michelin Tires on three (3) vehicles. Two SUV's and one (1) full Size Passenger Car. The Michelin tires were not given to the writer of this review and the writer was not compensated in any way for writing this review.

Best kept secret in 4wd tires

This tire is the best one on the road for me. I have over the years taken this tire way, way off road and often I've pulled 4x4's with more aggressive tires than these out of situations they could not get through on their own. I drive a stock 2013 Ram 1500 4wd and these tires not only take me wherever I want to go but they ride smooth. I often go in sand, snow, mud, rocks, you name it and this tire is gonna get you through. It takes a long steady foot on the accelerator but these tires will find a way to get you through. Love my Michelin Truck Tires.

These tires are mounted ...

These tires are mounted on a 12 passenger Van. They are performing up to my expectations with regard to wear and comfort. I have used them in wet, dry and Icy conditions. In fact, I believe the tread design ( sipes into the tread pattern) were a big part in slowing the Van down when we hit some black Ice. We were on our way back from a Thanksgiving trip 2006, to Astoria, Oregon. While pulling our 7500 lb travel trailer up over highway 26 we encountered black Ice just as we crested a hill. Once we started down, the Van began to slide. I used the brakes very cautiously and was able to get stopped. These tires work really well.

The Best Tires Only

I only use Michelin tire on my cars and SUV. I know they cost a little more than others. Theirs time when my money would rather for me to buy a cheap brand but I always know that the michelin tires will perfrom and last for the money. Dad always told me it only takes a little more to go first class so spend extra on one`s you love. That`s why I buy Michilen tires for our vehicles.

Over 100,000 Miles!

I currently have 104,000 miles on my Michelin LTX-M/S on my 2003 F-250. Most (98%) of my driving is on-road here in SE Pennsylvania. Even with this past winter being the second worst on record for snow fall, the LTX tires with just about 4/32 left on them never left me stranded. I'll be buying another set this fall and will again buy the Michelin LTX-M/S! (my tire size is 285/75R16(D)).

Pretty disappointing tire

Have had these tires for 6 years now on a 2002 Nissan Xterra. Got them for the mileage warranty and the supposed superior traction. These tires have about 30,000 miles on them and only have 4/32nds left of tread. Definitely did not make the 70,000 miles. They never got any flats though. They have been decent tires in wet weather and snow, but nowhere near dedicated snow tires. They were fairly quiet brand new, but got much louder as they wore down. After 6 years and being on a car that is outside almost all the time, they have developed a good amount of age cracking which is expected from really any tire that sits out in the sun, rain, heat, and cold like they do. For the price of the tire, though, you can get other tires that are nearly the same for much less money. I don't think I'll purchase another set of these tires.

I wouldn't buy anything else!

I have been running Michelin LTX M/S tires since the purchase of my first 4Runner in 1998. They are quite, hug the road in all weather conditions, long lasting and smooth driving. They are without a doubt the best tire I have ever run. I won't buy anything else.

Best tires out there!

I absolutely love these tires and honestly, I wouldn't put anything else on my vehicle. The lasts set I purchased lasted 9 years! No, o don't drive a lot, but I live in Charleston, SC, and the summer sun and sea breeze can wreck a good thing fast. These tires hold up!!! They have excellent traction and they are just glide down the road.
