Nice tire. Horrid mileage

For my last six vehicles I’ve bought Michilens when it came time to replace originals. Nice ride and good handling. These are the same in that respect. However the mileage dropped immediately and consistently from the original tires. I am averaging 15% to 20% LOWER gas mileage since I had these put on. All that great tread is going to give me is several thousand more miles of less than optimal gas economy.

Great Tire for Jeeps too

Over the years, I have allways preferred Michelin Tires on all my cars. Recently I put the LTX M/S 33 RWL tires on my 2005 Jeep Unlimited. I wanted to improve the ride comfort and still have a semi-agressive tread for those Jeep Moments when you need it. These tires do (improve the ride comfort), and do (push mud and water around) when you want them to. The LTX M/S also stands square and tall (looks good doing it).

After using another brand ...

After using another brand tire for 'wet weather' use I tried the LTX M/S tire and found the results fantastic. Much better traction on wet pavement, grass and the ride was improved. The tire performed much better and looks great! I plan to continue using this tire on my truck and tell everyone about the good traction, wear, looks and ride.

I have these tires on my ...

I have these tires on my 2007 Chevy Silverado 1500. They have about 20,000 miles on them at this point and have been excellent. The wear appears to be smooth and even and I have no problems to report at this time. The tires are extremely smooth, quiet and they ride excellent. I hope they will last at least another 30,000 miles. If they do I will be thrilled wth the all around performance of this tire.

In 2002 I purchased a 1995 Suburban 2500 series with a diesel engine. I soon put on a set of 275-16 LTX Michelin tires. I now have 112,000 miles on these tires and there is still tread left. I will be getting new ones before long, but what is ironic, is that the lady that I purchased the Suburban from said that the reason she was selling it was because it wore out tires so quickly. I'm sure that a lot of the longivity can be attributed to driving habits, but the Michelin tires have performed exceptionally as well.

Best tires I ever had

Back in 2005, I bought a set of these tires for my Honda Element. At the time the odometer was at 50,000 miles. Now I am looking at tires again for the same vehicle, which is why I am even on this website. I now have 140,000 miles on the Element. 90,000 miles on a set of tires can't be beat. I will definitely stick with Michelin!

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.

The Michelin LXT M/S ...

The Michelin LXT M/S tires I put on my truck last year, is a decision I am glad I made. But it was an easy decision to make. I already knew of Michelin's reputation for quality. My dad always bought Michelin tires for his cars. Dad was very picky about his cars and what he put in them or ON them. I feel confident on the road with my Michelins. I don't worry about the rain, the changing road conditions, or how my truck will handle with these tires. The wife's car will need new tires soon. Getting her a set of Michelins. It's a family tradition.

save yourself both time & money buy thz

These are my second set of Michelin tires on my Duramax 2500 Diesel that has over 130K on it for milege. We tow a 31 foot Airstream Trailer, and ahve towed it across America twice. These Michelin tires have never failed and the milege on these have been close to 60-65K per set with rotation and air pressure being monitored. We're about to upgrade to 16" wheels on the Airstream and they will have Michelins and on our Cadillac SRX we use Michelins. The only bad thing is for Michelin, is they last forever. Buy Michelin and you will save yourself allot of time, money and frustration. A well worth investment for a long term return.

Molding Process Not Up To Par

In the past Michelin tires have had clean side molding process. The Defender tires that I recently purchased does not have clean molding lines. One tire tire is perfect while the other three have extra rubber “flaps* around the tire side wall. Time will tell how they hold up. Maybe I’m picky but the extra molding rubber makes them look cheap.
