Bought these for my ...

Bought these for my wife's 02 explorer sport. Wanted a tire to handle slick wet roads and slight off-road conditions. Tires have preformed beyond expectation. I even took them through truck size mud holes to see what they could handle. Tires held grip very well and tread stayed clear of debri. Same for snowy roads, good all around performer. I feel better knowing that my wife is riding around on tires I can depend on. They are amazing and suprized me with their rough and tough ability even though they look mild mannered.

This is the second set for my truck.

These are a great set of tires. Long lasting as long as you rotate every 5,000 miles. If you don't your front tires can become cupped and you will feel some front end vibration. Rotate from to back every 5,000 miles and you can get 70,000+ miles easy.

Best tires would never use any other

I have had these tires on my vehicle 7 years and they still wear and perform great. I spent over 20 years at a Ford Dealer in mgnt and when we had to have new tires pn something I always chose Michelin . So with my past experience I still carry on the tradition of using Michelin tires . Never change your product

these tires lasted ...

these tires lasted 130,000 miles and still were not quite down to the wear bars. vehicle is a 2000 ford explorer and while i did not beat them up this suv is not babied either. even late in the tread life they performed extremely well in the rain and snow. the new LTX M/S 2's are even better starting and stopping in the rain. i do not believe that there is a better tire on the market, at least in this application.

Great All Purpose Tire

These tires came new on my 2009 Honda Pilot - I put 95,000 worry free miles on the original set. I just bought 4 new ones this week and hope to have similar results. Great ride, great wear (with faithful rotation), low road noise and never any vibrations or flats. I really like these tires.

LTX M/S Ford Expedition

My 2003 Ford Expedition now has 160,000 miles and I am now on my second set of LTX M/S. I got about 85,000 miles on the last pair which was a little less then I expected. The winter handling in Minnesota, along with the traction during the off road driving I do make them well worth it. Great handling and fairly quiet too. They do instill confidence in less then ideal conditions.

Best Tires Ever

Michelin tires are the best. I only use Michelin, on all 4 of our vehicles. The LTX M/S has been on my wifes blazer and we get approximately 3 1/2 years usage out of them. They are great riding, long lasting and the best all around tire I have ever used. We will purchase them again! Thanks Michelin for giving us great and safe tires to ride on!

Nothing but Michelin

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"!!

"ONLY Tires I will use on my vehicles"

I own 4 vehicles and would use no ther tire. When I buy a new vehicle the very first thing I do is replace the tires with Michelins and sell the others. I find that the warranty,wear and overall feeling of safety given by their use is unsurpassed. Fortunately all my children have followed my lead and spend the little extra for the same terrific results. I highly recommend any Michelin tire, but my favorites have always have been the LTX series since we own suvs and trucks.

My tires are more than reliable!!!

I will only buy Michelin Tires. They are so reliable and Michelin tires beat the prices of many other competitors in their class. I do a lot of highway driving and I can honestly say, I have gone a lot farther than the recommended 50,000 miles and my ride is always smooth in my SUV. I do my rotations and get them checked regularly. Thank you for such an awesome product that I feel safe riding my family around on our many trips and day to day activities.
