LTX M/S ARE GREAT

This set of tires were purchased about 5 years ago. I have driven the tires +/- 75,000 miles. They still have good tread are wearing smooth and have never had a flat tire. I have them on my GMC Yukon 1997 and am very happy with them. I highly recommend these tires to anyone under any conditions.

I continue to buy these tires

These tires came on my truck when purchased Brand new in 2000. I have continued with this brand because they are dependable ,wear well, and ride is smooth and they last for over 75,000 miles or more. I still have the original spare time that came with the truck. These are the best brand of tires and I recommend them to everyone.

Rough Road Capable

I drive down a 10 mile rough gravel road twice a week. The road is known to eat up tires. The Michelin LTX MS tires hold up exceptionally. I drive highway miles as well as this road. I put on about 16,000 miles a year. The gravel road has a reputation for eating up tires. The Michelins have endured without any problem. I am very pleased with this product.

Couldn't ask for more

OK, I had michelins on my honda accord years ago and remembered how good they were and how long they lasted (had 110K miles on them when I sold it). So when my 2003 Escape needed replacements for the tires that came on it at 60K miles, I went with the Michelins. Now six years and over 170K miles later I am ready for a new set (or maybe a new vehicle, since the odometer is near 240K). I am very pleased with Michelins. They last forever! The guy at the tire store said I could probably get 5-10K more out of them since I actually still have good tread but am seeing some dry rot - they are getting old. Great tires Michelin!

will buy this product again

The LTX M/S tire is as good as it gets. The mileage is great along with the traction and water shedding all the way to the minimum tread wear bar. I have bought 3 sets over the years and the mileage was from 90,000 to a high of 103,000 miles on 2 different pick up trucks. I was very skeptical of the wet traction since the wear rate was very low, but to my surprise, the traction never left. Thanks for finding the perfect compromise of wear and traction as I know that having both has been a mystery for years.

15k so far and excellent

We bought two sets of these tires about 15 months ago. The Michelin Defender LTX are wonderful tires for my wife’s 2011 Odyssey van and my 2009 Acura MDX suv. Have road tripped them both 1000’s of miles and they are smooth and quiet and are also great around town whether wet or dry. I took the Acura to the Rocky Mountains and these tires inspire great confidence even through a foot of fresh snow. And quiet on the highway (less than 68db). Plus the 18” version of these tires have 12/32 of tread when new, so they are going to last a long time. Much better for a heavy van and SUV than the “regular” Defenders IMO, since those are built for lighter cars, while the LTX version is for heavier ones like a loaded down minivan (well north of 5500 pounds when loaded with 6 people, 2 dogs, and tons of luggage). Don’t be turned off by the LTX version for your minivan or luxury SUV. They look cool too, are built for a heavy vehicle, and are still super smooth. I have about 15k miles so far on the Acura MDX’s tires. Just drove it 2500 miles round trip with the LTX tires to the Colorado mountains and back through all types of weather: dry and smooth interstate as well as blinding snow a foot deep. They were super smooth and quiet crossing Kansas on the interstate, and never slipped in the Colorado snow. Could not be more pleased. I would recommended this version of tire over the regular Defender for heavier vehicles, since I would not have thought about an LTX tire since one normally thinks about a pickup for an LTX tire. The tires have stayed 100% balanced (as all Michelin tires do!) and wear evenly. Kudos to Michelin for engineering a great tire for all the family vans and SUVs out there.

Outstanding tires

This is my 2nd set and my 2nd Honda Ridgline. I love the ride, these tires give smooth reliable traction on all surfaces as in northern Virginia we have all seasons and these are fantastic all season tires. I drive with confidence and comfort as these tires perfectly compliment the suspension of my vehicle. I recommend these to any and everyone desiring performance and comfort.

LTX M/S - Quite simply the best!

I have been on Michelin's for years and was glad when the non-Michelin dealer tires had to be replaced on my Lexus RX. My local Lexus dealer recommended the LTX M/S and I had excellent prior experience with Michelin LTX tires on other SUVs. Handles great navigating Colorado's mountain passes, even during major snow events. I have pulled other vehicles out of snow banks and ditches as these tires really grip in all kinds of conditions. Very comfortable, smooth ride on dry roads and over long trips. A great all-season tire for paved and dirt roads. Coming up on 30K miles and they still look like-new with even tread-wear. I am diligent about rotating and balancing at recommended mileage intervals.

These tires came as ...

These tires came as standard equipment on my 2004 Dodge Ram 1500. At 85,000 miles they needed to be replaced. The folks at the tire dealer thought I was crazy for putting such expensive tires on an older truck, but I told them that I planned to drive it until this set of tires wear out and I would be making money with the more expensive tire.
