Nothing but......

I will use nothing but this brand of tire. For the last four new cars that I have bought, I immediately switched out the tires to my LTX M/S. Primary reason....the safety factor. These are the greatest for everyday driving in rain, snow, etc. I can drive with confidence in inclement weather.

Nice Tire Terrible Rock Thrower on F250

I have had many sets of Michelin tires. (Probably close to 8.) Only 2 bad tires they replaced without issue. I have these tires on my wife's Sequoia and my mother's 4 runner. Excellent tires on them. I bought these for my 2020 F250. These are HORRIBLE at throwing rocks! The grooves in the center of the tire (there's 5 of them if I recall) love to grab rocks from gravel driveway/roads and kick them up on my truck. These would hold rocks even at high speed and eject them when doing 80 mph on freeway. I have no idea why those grooves need to be so wide on a highway tire??

Bought a used Nissan 4X4 ...

Bought a used Nissan 4X4 pickup, the tires were worn but I thought I could get a few more miles on them. Then I picked up a nail in the sidewall on one, and went looking for a replacement. Being a Saturday, some tire dealers were closed, go figure, so I stopped at place I don't normally shop. They had a set of 4 Michelin LTX M/S tires, just the right size and offered a good price, so I said why not? They improved the looks of the truck right away, and as I pulled away from the shop, I could not believe how mush better they made the truck ride. Later, we had some of the worst snow we've had for some time. In 4 wheel drive, those tires were unstoppable, they just kept on digging. Will I buy more Michelins, you better believe it!

Another Great Start With New Michelins

I just bought a new set of Defender LTX M/S tires for my 2018 Lincoln Navigator. They are quiet, even on typically noisy concrete. We'll see if they perform as well and exceed the tread life warranty like my multiple sets of LTX M/S2 tires did on my Ford Expedition. Tire rotations every 5,000 miles make a difference in making the tread wear more evenly.

Not your father's Michelin's!

My previous tires (another brand) were smooth as glass on my 2014 Buick Enclave, but they were exceptionally noisy and wore out in less than half the miles warranted. I put on these Michelins, and aftrer three tire shop balances, they were still vibrating. Noise level was fine, but the shook the entire car above 60 mph. My favorite independent auto repair shop discovered that my tire shop had not distributed the weights correctly on these Michelins, and gave me a proper, courtesy re-balance. That made a big improvement, but there is still a slight vibration above 60 mph. This is not my first set of Michelins. Most have been great, although there was one set that did not deliver on the treadwear mileage. Besides the ongoing vibration problem, these Michelins are the roughest riding tires I have ever owned. They transmit every pebble and pavement crack through the entire car. They even vibrate over glass-smooth asphalt. I am extremely unhappy with these Defender LTX M/S - so much so that I will likely never buy another Michelin tire.

Dave, we are sorry to read that you are unhappy with the Defender LTX M/S tires on your Enclave. As part of the Michelin Promise Plan, these tires come with a 60 day satisfaction guarantee. You are still within that 60 day period. Simply return to the selling retailer to have the tires swapped out. Have the dealer contact us with any questions. We hope that you will consider Michelin's as your replacement tires.

Switched from another name brand

I bought a certified preowned Highlander and it came with new tires from another company. After a 6 months or so of not doing a good job of keeping the tires properly inflated it developed edges on the blocks of the tread that made the most annoying sounds while driving. I put the Michellins on and it reduced the noise level dramatically. I was very satisfied and they lasted a long time too.

I owned a set of Michelins on a Volvo I once owned. Now that I have a daughter and I am concerned about her safety more than my own and she needed good tires I bought her the best that I once knew of: Michelin. If I can afford them for my wife, (she's the primary driver in our home), her next set of tires will be Michelins also.

Excellent Service LTX MS

The LTX MS are the best tires I have ever used in my 28 year driving experience in terms mileage and overall performance. They could be a little quieter. The tires were the original equipment for my 2009 Honda Ridgeline. I am now on 97,500 miles and the tires have not yet reached the wear indicators. I must admit that I am driving 80% highway in Florida and the tires are not being abused by offroad and winter conditions. Handling is great and you could not expect a better performance on wet roads including summer tropical down pours that we experience in Florida. Great product.

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.

Great Tires

Replaced the OEM tires with the LTX M/S on our Chevy 2500 truck. The ride and noise was improved tremendously. We only got about 30,000 miles from the OEM tires and the LTX gave use almost 60,000 miles. I am now on the second set of LTX's on the truck. Very good traction in rain and snow.
