"You get what you pay for, get the best"

I have run michelins for the past 15 years and recommend them to all. To some they might seem a little pricey, but I have found that they are well worth the extra expense. I have had very little problems with these tires, a few have separated but overall I am very satisfied with my decision to run michelins.

I've been a Michelin ...

I've been a Michelin loyalist since 1985. My latest set of LTX M/S on my SUV have been and still are a great ride. I am amazed at how well these tires perform, and I get more than the average rated MPG for my SUV which I do credit the tires, because it is the only thing that is not factory on my vehicle. There is no doubt for me that my next set of tires will be Michelins.

Best truck tire on the market - bare none!

3.7 star average is nuts! I have had 2 sets of Defenders on my Ford Expedition. Nothing else compares! Amazing tread life - 70k is true. Amazing traction - WV mountains no slip, no slide, will go anywhere. Amazing quiet ride. The only tire to buy for your SUV - bare none!

Now I know how Fred Flinstone felt

These are the worst tires I have ever owned. I have another set on my Tacoma which I bought a couple of year's ago. Those were the best tire I have owned. This new version vibrates and shakes horrible between 65-75 miles sn hour. I had them rebalanced which did nothing. Regret the day I bought these. I was always a Michelin guy but I am rethinking that now.

Great long-lasting tire ...

Great long-lasting tire on my 2003 Ford Excursion. I have over 20,000 miles on these tires and they show no signs of wear. They work well on dry pavement and the grooves are deep enough to handle standing water with no problem. The tread is also agressive enough to handle deep snow. The rubber compound seems soft even when cold to handle ice as well.

I am on my second set of these tires on my 2004 Chevrolet crew cab pickup. I had 56,000 miles on the first set with still a lot of tread. Replaced them so I would have new tires for the 2010 hunting season when I get off road. This is the best tire I have ever used for a pickup, and I am 78 years old. They are quite on the pavement and adequate for off road use.

I always buy reliable Michelin Tires!

I do a lot of driving in all kinds of weather and road conditions. Michelin Tires have never let me down, steady and true in a rainy downpour and reliable traction in snow and changing road conditions. Since I usually have children along, their safety is top priority. Thanks to Michelin Tires, I have never had any trouble on the road.

dependability while traveling

My wife and I use our van for seeing America. We have made three trips since June,2012 . One trip to Colorado, one to the Everglades of Florida, and this summer to Cape Breton and PEI by way of the Maine coast. All trips were from our home in South Carolina. I check the air in all tires before each trip and trust my tires that we will have a safe trip. Michelin tires are made in our part of the state, which is one more reason to trust our tires.

We have the Michelin LTX ...

We have the Michelin LTX 245/70-16 on a Nissan 4x4 Pathfinder that replaced the stock 255/65-16. Had the tires on the vehicle now for years and 40,000 miles. The tread looks like it will last another 40,000 miles and wears very even. The sidewalls are extremely rigid and must be puncture resistant. We live in a area with lots of potholes and new construction, so nails and debris is common on the road. My wife gets nail punctures very often and I don't so I have to think the deeper thread blocks and inner lining of the Michelins must have something to do with it. Where we live when it snows they don't clear the roads, so I only drive the Pathfinder then because the tires have really good grip on show and icy roads. They are way better than the OE tires, I am very impressed. If there is any negative complain I would say they do ride harder than the OE tires, they are very quiet but you do feel the road surface more.
