First Dissapointment

Been using Michelin tires for about 15 years and this is the first time I've been disappointed. Only got 3 years and 30K miles out of these before they were worn to 3/32. I expected them to last longer, but they actually wore out quicker than the Primacys I used to use.

Michelin defender

This is my second set of Michelin defenders. I got approx. 65000 miles on first set easily. I liked them so much I replaced them with another. Great in snow or wet conditions. Low road noise. Keep rotating these tires every oil change and you’ll never have any problems with wearing.

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.

Cheapest Tire for your Money

I did not particularily like using that title but it is true. If you take the total miles you will get from a set of Michelins and divide by the cost it is the cheapest tire per mile on the market. My last set I got 120k on my Ford F150, I could have easily put on 2-3 sets of competitor brands of tires. Besides that these tires handle real well and are excellent in the Rain. It makes you feel real safe when running these Michelin LTX M/S. How could I ever buy another set of tires without considering Michelins for myself or family. I have told many a friend about my experience with Michelin Tires and the sets I have purchased thru the years,which haven't been many? I may be your best salesman.

I just recently purchased ...

I just recently purchased my Michelin ltx M/S tires for my 2006 Honda Ridgeline. Driving makes me feel like I'm on a cloud. They adhere to the road surface without sliding. I've driven on gravel and there is very little slippage on a hill. They fit well & look great! There is alot of road construction in my area with lots of graded surfaces. The tires I previously had rode hard and I could feel the roughness on the road. The Michelin ltx M/S have a smooth ride and I barely feel the graded surface (although I try to avoid the construction areas). I live in a mountainous area with many different road surfaces and weather changes. I haven't had any problems with my tires and love the way they feel and handle! When my 1999 car needs new tires, I will definetly purchase Michelin for it as well!! My husband works in the Automotive industry and he agrees that Michelin are the best brand of tire you can get.

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!

Hulk, there could be a contributing factor to the wear on the tires. We recommend to take the vehicle to an authorized retailer in your area for an inspection. Utilize our Dealer Locator to find dealers in your area. Give us a call once the tires have been inspected and we will contact the dealer and get their findings to determine next steps.

Rides Smooth

These tires are mounted on my daily driver, a 2007 Chevy trailblazer. It is used mostly for touring, and we had a mild winter last year, but if these are anything like my previous set of Michelin's they will get me where I need to go and do it smoothly and quietly. 15000 miles so far without any signs of wear.

Smooth riding, long lasting tread

Use this tire for everyday city/interstate driving also backroads travel, through various different types of terrain. Experienced a smooth ride, traction over the various terrains, and extremely good tread wear. Road noise on paved roads, dependent on surface material is annoying at times overall good.

great features

I have used the defender tires for years on my vehicles and love them in every way. Bought a chev pu and the tires were still good, but did not like them and had to replace with these defender tires , could not wait the other tires were loud and did not drive as nice. I will only use michelin tires. My spouse does think it makes that much difference but it does.
