I have been buying Michelin tires for 40 years now. Overall I have been quite satisfied with the wear patterns, reliability and service life of the tires. I have had Michelin tires on light trucks, vans, SUV's, sedans, sports cars and mid-range trucks. The Defender LTX M/S for my 2015 RAM 2500 4x4 Turbo diesel 3/4 ton truck only lasted 20 months and less than 30,000 miles. They were religiously rotated every 5,000 miles, not used for heavy loads or towing, little mountain road driving and no off road use. They all four (4) wore evenly but did not reach any where near the 50,000 service life expectancy.

LTX M/S is my current tire on my Ram 3500 diesel! This is my second set on this truck! Original tire made it to 70K. Previous set of Michelin’s made 96K! I have had a set for 125K on a smaller truck! I have also had LTX M/S’ and the previous models on Suburbans, Is excursions and other light trucks. Total sets 9-10. Consistent performance, quiet, great in all weather and mileage has al aye been excellent!

Purchase these tire based on past experience with Michelin. Returned the next day with a vibration thought it was bad balancing, the second balancing did nothing complained with no results. A few weeks later went to my dealer and had the tires balanced again but to no avail. Returned to the supplier that I staled them and was told the they had found a problem with some on these tires. Asked for resolution and was told it was complicated. Finally they will replace these defective tires but I will have to pay for the wear on them. This is not rite as I have been complains since day one. No happy about this at all.

The Michelin Defenders 265 50r 20 tires on my 2014 jeep grand cherokee make a lot of noise. I am really disappointed with that part of the tire. I have been using Michelin tires on my vehicles for over 20 years and will continue to do so. Help me out Michelin what is going on with the noisy ti

I had the Defender LTX M/S on my truck and really liked the ride and the quality of the tire. When I needed new tires for my car it was an easy choice to make. I purchased the Defender again. I feel you that you get a quality tire that provides a quiet ride and will last for many kilometres.

I recently put these on my 2015 Grand Cherokee and so far, they are great. Prior to these, I had the Latitude Tours, which I loved. These have a more aggressive looking tread pattern, and initially, I was a bit concerned they would have increased road noise, or compromise the comfort of the ride, but I have to say I am impressed - they are as good in those respects as the Latitude. These appear to be a more capable tire in snow and mud and I am looking forward to taking them through a Minnesota Winter. Recommmended!

Replaced all 4 tires on my 2020 Odyssey about 7 weeks ago. Did a lot of “research” / read a lot of websites before settling on them. Was concerned about a possible drop in MPG. Haven’t experienced that, and they ride so smooth I forgot what the original tires felt like. I would definitely buy these again.

These have been an excellent tire for bonding with the road whether the roads are dry, wet or snow covered. They are quiet and have great wear. I have them on my vehicles and had them installed on my kids vehicles. Worth the investment. Provides peace of mind. I highly recommend !

I have 30k on these tires and they wore abnormally down the middle, despite keeping proper air pressure and rotating them. The original LTX M/S2 tires were the best tire I ever owned and what made me a Michelin customer. These new Defenders may look like the old design, but are clearly inferior.

Had 4 of these put on my truck in 2003 and all still have good tread and have had ZERO issues. Changing these out for 4 new Michelins X LT AS just because of age. Decided to go with the other model due to the reviews here and I hope it will not be a mistake.
