Durability Master !

The reliability of my Michelin LTX truck tires for my Ford 150 4x4 is nothing short of amazing. They are exposed daily to a very wide vareity of road conditions and hazards and never fail. The ride is remarkably smooth. A similar set of LTX on my wife's Chevy SUV has nearly 90,000 miles with a stunning amount of tread remaining and not one problem.

These tires are my 4th or ...

These tires are my 4th or 5th set of Michelins on my trucks which are used to tow 5th wheel trailers. For me dependability trumps cost. These tires have never failed me. I trust Michelin tires with my property and with my life. Thank you for a great tire.

Less then perfect

This is my second set and by far these are less then great, with only 36,000 miles on them they slip (hydroplane) when there is a little water on the road and they slip at start up even on dry roads. I have them rotated every 5,000 miles, I check and correct tire pressure every 30 days, I am wondering if the rubber is now a harder substance, hopefully they make it to 70,000 miles

Thanks for the honest feedback. Sounds like you’ve been taking great care of your tires, so we totally get your frustration. The Defender LTX M/S is designed for long-lasting traction, but performance can vary depending on wear, road conditions, and vehicle setup. We’d recommend having a local dealer take a look to see what’s going on.

Honda put a great tire on the Ridgeline.

I was suprised to see Michelin tires on my 2008 Ridgeline when I purchased it new. Even after 20K miles, they still look new. Smooth riding and good traction for our snowy northern Minnesota winters. I would definitely replace them with the same tires when needed.

Michelin Defender LTX M&S never disappoints

You get what you pay for, and the Michelin Defender LTX M&S are by no means the cheapest tire out there. I have tried many other brands of tires, but always come back to this one. If you looking for smooth, quiet ride, good traction & long wear look no further. Over 10K miles driven so far, I fully expect to get nearly 50K out of every set and I never let the tread levels wear down completely on my tires. I drive a mix of highway miles, windy mountain roads, rocky/dirt/gravel roads, rain and snow and these tires hold up better than all the rest.

Happy Michelin customer

I have been a Michelin customer for over 25 years. Never had a problem with them. Talked my kids into purchasing Michelin tires and they love them. I am convinced that Michelin tires saved my life last year when I got shoved into the median on thy interstate running over 75 mph and they hugged the grass keeping me from flipping. Thanks for a great tire.

Great tires

I've used these tires on my wife's SUV and my old truck. They're the best tires I've ever bought for heavier vehicles. The tires on my wife's SUV are almost 2 years old and still look like new. I would have traded the truck tires from my old truck to my newer one if they would have fit.

Outstanding tire at 225k miles

On my 06 Honda Ridgeline, these tires were OEM and lasted +100k miles. Since then I've replaced them with two more sets of non-Michelin tires and have hated them every mile. Now, at 225k miles, I've gone back to the Michelin tire and love them. I'd forgotten how quite good tires should be. They give me fantastic wet-road performance. Haven't yet been in the snow yet, but if they perform like my original tires, they'll be great. My advice, spend the extra for these tires. They're worth every penny.

I love these tires!

I love these tires. When I say these tires have superior traction, I've had tires for six months and i driven through mud, wet grass and wet pavement and these tires never loss traction. I love them and I recommend them to anybody who drives a truck! One more thing, these tires make a truck look so good!

I have driven on a set of ...

I have driven on a set of LTX-MS on my 98' Expedition for approximately 6 years. The tires have performed superbly in handling, wear and ride comfort. I have not driven this vehicle off-road, but feel that these tires would hold their own in an off-road environment.
