Our vehicles (17+" tires) all have Michelin tires. Purchased smaller used vehcile (15") with non-Michelin but quickly forced to replace. Immediately had little or no road noise, tail-fishing or bumpy ride! The smaller tires are as excellent as their bigger "siblings"!!

Two years ago after 32 inch snowfall I was the only one on the road besides the plow trucks. The day before, on my way home from work, the snow was coming down hard and I was headed for a 250 foot elevation hill climb. About halfway up, and around the bend, cars were in the ditch and blocking the road. I had to come to a complete stop on the steep incline. Whew, I didn't slide back down the hill. I put it in four-wheel-drive low expecting some slippage as I started moving again. Surprisingly no slippage whatsoever! I slalomed around the cars and pulled a couple out of the ditch and one up the hill to safety. Without a doubt I would purchase Michelin mud and snow tires again for my four-wheel-drive vehicle.

I've always used Michelin, then Ctls were on sale and I chose them. 3 Flat tires in 6 months. Been working at same place same drive path for 25 years. Had the new tires taken off and new Michelins put on. They even road quieter. I won't do it again. Flat tires are a pain to deal with especially when it's freezing out.

Vacation this year was to Florida and as we were driving through Georgia we encountered a series of very heavy rain storms. the rain was heavy enough to slow traffic to 30 miles and below on I-75. when we got to our destination for that night the second vehicle that we were traveling with was remarking about all the hydroplaning that they had experienced. we were surprised because we had not experienced any even though there were times there was water on the highway. I attribute this to my Michelin tires and I am glad that they always keep me and my family safe.

Have these tires due to 70K mile warranty. At 20K miles, noticed extreme wear on the front. Realized had not completed rotation. Began rotating tires, but to no avail. Tread worn completely across entire tire on 2 of them. 2 remaining tires also low on tread. Likely 10K left on those. Have bought at least 5 other sets of Michelin’s (LTX MS & LTX MS2). All lasted at least as long as the warranty. Not these. Tire dealer said nothing can be done for warranty. Pretty disappointing. These tires are not cheap.

End of tire thread's review ! After 20 months on our 2010 Chevy Suburban service vehicle and 135000 miles of New England Driving conditions these definitely are the best tires we ever had on vehicle. ( lots of Highway driving some occasional dirt roads ) Rotated as recommended and kept correct PSI. These tires IMO are the best !!!!

without a question?the best tire,on the market.michelin wrote the book on the steelbelted tire recipe, i personally,have never had,or ever herd of a michelin tire seperatting,or twisting a belt,and thats why i trust ther process,and there great wear, i put 160,000 miles on my 245 75 r 16 and they still had safe tread wear left on them!

Bought these for my wife's explorer sport '02. wanted something to be able to handle wet roads as well as slight off-road conditions. Very pleased at the ride quality, low road noise and wet, lick, road handleing. Took it off-road and was very impressed. Massive mud puddle with no wheel spin at all. I feel very safe with my wife behind the wheel now.

These are the best tires I have ever purchased for any vehicle. I got 90,000 miles out of this set of 60,000 mile tires. Only rotated once and tread wear was even throughout the time I had them on my truck. That is why I replaced those tires with the exact same tire regardless of the price. It is a good investment. I highly recommend these tires if you are looking for a smooth quiet ride, even wear, and long use.

I had run-flat Pirelli tires on my new Durango R/T...I replaced them after not even 12,000 miles with the Michelin Defenders.... HUGE Difference! Quieter. Better ride and better traction. I had these on my Jeep Grand Cherokee too and they are far superior to any other tire I have used
