Really Great Road tires for a truck/suv

2018 Frontier PRo-4x. Replaced OEM tires with these since i am not a true off roader, and mainly on highway. I picked up 2mpg+ with these. Rolling resistance is awesome, stopping ,and more importantly cornering is WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY better. Great road Manners. Slightly stiffer than the softwall off road tires i had. But these work just nice. not to mention, they can go to 80psi???? WOW... NOT that iw ould do that. My first set was bad, the dealer did a warranty claim, and as soon as i rolled out i knew right away how great these were. Makes the truck more of a nice commuter truck now, with the ability to "trucK" when needed. I really do enjoy these, and the improved gas mileage is with the AC on all the time soo, so perhaps 3mpg or so improvement.... This replacement set used way less weights, and again these tires really do look so nice. Gives the truck an upscale "gentlemans" look if you get my point. GREAT road manners, it's still a truck, but GREAT road manner improvements.

We have had these tires ...

We have had these tires for over 70,000 miles and they still have tread left. Over the last 10,000 miles or so I have noticed that they have gotten louder. Also, they now have a tendency to when pulling away from a stop sign or making a tight turn in a parking lot. These have always been excellent in the snow and good in the rain. Even though these tire were probably the most expensive tires I have purchased, the are by far the best I have ever had. They outlasted the stock tires on my Highlander 2WD by over 40,000 miles. They also had much better handling and traction than the stock tires. I plan on replacing these in the next month or so with a new set of these or the LTX MS/2

Very Noisy and Rough Riding

I have had 3 sets of Defenders on my 2006 4Runner and I they were great tires for 210,000 miles. I decided to buy a set for my 2018 Grand Cherokee. I made a expensive mistake. They are very loud and very rough riding. They have changed the whole demeaner of my SUV. I have only had them for a week and about 500 miles but I have talked to the dealer about changing tires. He suggested Latitude Touring which was the OEM tire on my Jeep. I only got 29,000 miles out of those. I really need to find a solution. Can I change out for the Premier series? Thanks

I love these tires!!

I was traveling and had some time to investigate new tires. I put the agent through a lot of questions and he knew everything about tires and even more about Michelin. He took his time, was able to answer all my questions as well as help me make a great dicision on the tire I chose. I truly love these tires and I am so happy I bought them too. The vehicle rides so well and they have enhanced the drive in rain and snow as well. I will be purchasing another set when that time comes and with all the dog rescue transports I do, that might be pretty soon! Thank you for making a great tire that I feel safe with.

Went with the best

Had a set of 4 on my Honda Pilot when I bought it new. Used it a lot in the mountains during ski season and provided excellent traction and tread wear. It was a no brainer to get them again. Cost was a bit higher than other brands but piece of mind is priceless when it comes to the "rubber hitting the road".

Michellin LTX MS

Have been a loyal Michellin customer. These tire out performed by expectations for miles and ride quality. I was able to get 85,000 miles with limited rotation. The tires still had 5,000 to 10,000 miles, but with winter coming, it was time to change. Will always stay with Michellin.

Long tread life and great traction

Have had these Michelins for about 2 years and they have performed very, very well. They ride smooth and quiet. They are wearing very well and still have a lot of tread on them. The wet weather grip is excellent, a big plus for me. A lot of tires may grip well in dry weather. The tire that grips well in wet conditions is the one I need, and the Michelins come through like the true winner they are when the conditions are nasty outside. The handling is very good too. I would definitely buy another set of these. I recommended them to my son and he put a set on his vehicle. He is very pleased with them as well. A great all around tire.

Great tires

I have been in the automotive business for 24 years and seen all brands and makes of tires. Michelin tire outride and outlast all other brands. Of all the tire failures I have seen in that time I can count on one hand the number of Michelin tires that have failed pretty remarkable.

I have purchased (2) sets ...

I have purchased (2) sets of LTX MS ( l set on a 1990 Jeep cherokee laredo, and on a 1997 grand cherokee laredo. Both sets have been excellent, with the set on 1997 jeep still with more than half the tread after 40,000 miles. I intended on getting these for my wife's 2007 jeep grand cherokee laredo, but unfortunately I couldn't afford them at the time. Also, the tires on the 1997 have been on for 8 years. I have recommended these tires to several of my friends, and I know least three have purchased the LTX MS. These tires are outstanding for all season, long mileage, and quite/smooth ride.
