This is my 2nd set of Defender LTX M/S tires for my 2008 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab. I'm surprised to read that the latest reviews all comment about the road noise! One of the reasons I love these tires is because they are very quite!!! I've never had any road noise with either set of tires. I used to work out of state and had to make a 350 mile round trip each week. My first set held up so well that I basically had to replace them due to dry rot from age and not from wear. They work well in the rain and don't hydroplane easily.

although i've only had this set of michelin ltx m/s tires for less than six months, what i've noticed so far is the smoothness and quietness of the ride they seem to provide. obviously, at less than six months old, there is no visible ware whatsoever. i'm happy with the tires and if they give me close to their warrantied life i'll likely buy another set.

when our Jeep needed new tires, research on quality, safety, performance and overall value led us to Michelin. 18 years later and 3 more sets of Michelins, still happy and satisfied with the original choice and every choice in between. would never consider another tire - just the safety reputation alone is worth it, but to get the performance, durability and ride comfort in addition, there just aren't better tires on the market... period.

I have put about 30,000 miles on Defender LTX M/S in all weather and they handle very well on my Honda Pilot. Stop wining about noise! These are noisier than passenger rated tires as these tires are light truck/crossover tires and are able to handle higher weights and loads. I run them about 4 lbs higher pressure than the SUV door sticker for higher vehicle load per the Michelin spec.

I have loaded over twice the recommended capasity in my 2500 ram on numerious occassions. When I changed out the first factory set of Michelin's, they had over 85,000 miles with out a problem. My second set suffered the same treatment and were changed out when the odometer hit 180,000, without a dought these are best set of tires I've ever owned,

I have been a faithfull customer of Michelin tires since i can remenber. my dad always told me that they were the best for yor money and he was right. i just recently bought my second set of 4 Michelin LTX M/S tires for my truck. Now my wife likes them too, that she will not have me purchase any other brand. good job michelin. keep it up

My Michelin's are a great performer. They hug the highway and take curves at high speed with ease. I can trek through snow and rain with confidence as tires give me traction to pull through an intersection or the bite to stop on a dime. I love, love, love my Michelin's.

Just replaced Yokohama tires with 64,000 on tires, dealers mentioned that they no longer carry them so he suggested the Michelins Defender LTX MS for my suburban. Now let's see how they perform on the highway, pulling cars to shows in this desert climate. Looks nice brings back that OEM look to the unit. Now had a fair experience with prior warranty on tread life, let's see how this round goes..

When I purchased my new SUV I complained about the ride all the time. I think they put the cheapest tires they could find on at the factory. When I only got 20,000 miles on them and they needed replaced, my first choice was Michelin. The ride improved 100%! I have purchased them in the past and have always been satisfied.

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
