I love this tire

This is the second set of LTX M/S tires we've owned. The first set lasted 105,000 miles and were replaced due to age not tire wear. After 105, 000 miles they still rode as smooth and performed flawlessly. The 2nd set is living up to the same expectations.

132.000 unfailing miles

I replaced the almost worn out tires on the used vehicle I purchased thirteen years ago with a set of Michelin LTX M/S. They have performed flawlessly in all kinds of weather in city, highway and trailer towing conditions. The vehicle just turned over 200,000 miles, which would be over 132,000 miles on these tires, and they still have a little tread left. I'm donating the car, but will make sure my next set of tires are Michelins.

Consistent performance in all conditions

After 80,000 miles on the original factory LTX M/S there was no doubt about what my replacement tires would be! The next generation of the LTX M/S have not disappointed. In fact, they continue to exceed my expectations in all driving conditons. From rain to snow and the little off-roading I do, these tires handle everything! What I am most impressed with is the braking distance. I feel very safe and secure in my vehicle with these tires.

Best Wearing Tire On The Market

For past several years I have used Michelin Tires on my vehicles with the latest being installed on a 2008 2500 Dodge Diesel Pickup. Previous Michelin Tires on this vehicle had 59K miles on them and only replaced due to weather cracks appearing on side walls. Tires were five years old with vehicle stored in sun and would estimate tread had another 15,000 miles on them. Only replaced due to cracks and I pull a fifth wheel on a regular basis. Have recommended these tires to several friends and most have purchased them. Highly recommend them to anyone for any vehicle.

I can't use enough ...

I can't use enough adjectives to describe these awesome tires! The tires I replaced were the ones I bought in 2004, which were, you guessed it...Michelins. I have never bought tires that performed the way Michelins do. I was single at the time, driving to and from work at over 70 miles per day. Thats why I bought them again. Your tires do exactly what you say they will. I'm one happy customer.

GREAT TIRES

Michelin in my opion are THE BEST TIRE on the market. Have had them on all my vehicles. Replaced the set on my GMC Pick/up (daily driver) after 75,000 + miles with a new set of Michelins, and put the old set on the farm Pick/up last year. Also have them on the Wife's Yukon and they have 60,000 + miles on them and still have plenty of tread left. You won't get that kind of ware out any of your competitors!

Rolling & Driving excellence!

We our proud new owners of our 31.5' Coachmen Freelander Motorhome and the one thing we decided was to put 6 new tires on. The Michelin LTX M/S 225/75R16 by far has been the absolute best choice because the ride is smoother and I definitely feel more confident on some of the road types that we ride on with these on our rig. I have not found anything bad about these tires.

best tire on the market

without a doubt the best overall tires on the market. Best ride , wear and over all the best I have bought and would not buy anything else. Have bought 4 sets on different trucks in the last 15 to 20 years and never had a problem out of any of them and ran them all about 100,000 miles.

This is my third set

I drive 35,000-40,000 miles per year. I am also an avid hunter and spend a fair amount of time off-road. In the past, I would opt for a more aggressive tread design than the LTXMS, but was always disappointed in the life span of the tires. I finally made the decision to go with a tire that would give me more economy on the road as well as a longer tread life and the LTXMS has been a great choice. I have noticed very little difference in my vehicle's (GMC 2500) off road capabilities and have been totally satisfied with the tread life. I have had a total of three sets of the LTXMS's on two trucks, and see no reason to alter this strategy. These are great tires!

Smooth Ride

I didn't have time to have tires installed although I knew I wanted Michelins, so I asked my wife to take the car to get the tires replaced. When she walked in she said the car is different, you better drive it. When I drove it, I thought, how could a set of tire make such a big improvement in a car's driving & handling - it was the Michelins smooth ride.
