Solid and Proven Tire for the Long Run

This tire was recommended by my retailer on the basis of many satisfying customers over many years and it reputation for long wear. I was inclined to buy a more energy efficient Michelin like Latitude for gas savings but was told the LTX's wear noticeably longer and have winter traction advantages so I went with them and will likely spend more on gas and less on tires. I was not able to calculate break even points but know that I lost 1mpg compared to the last tires (not Michelins) on my vehicle. Overall I am very satisfied. I have 25000 miles on them on my Highlander with 9/32nds of tread left so it looks like I can expect about 75000 miles.

Nothing but......

I will use nothing but this brand of tire. For the last four new cars that I have bought, I immediately switched out the tires to my LTX M/S. Primary reason....the safety factor. These are the greatest for everyday driving in rain, snow, etc. I can drive with confidence in inclement weather.

All Michelin are the BEST TIRES

I have had Michelin tires since 1978, I first purchased them to put on my "Pinto Wagon" yes I said Pinto, she was a 1976. The car did not come with radial tires, and these tires changed everything. I have been a loyal Michelin owner since. The ride is awesome, the wear is awesome, and I feel very safe knowing I have Michelin tires on my Vehicle............ I put different Michelins on my Explorer this time, but the LTX/MS were on my vehicle, I purchased them.....the Latitude is also great, only a 5,000 mi difference in warranty.........If you can do it, always use Michelin. Michelin has come a long way, the one years ago had softer side walls, and that was rough in NYC, having to parallel park............ Thank you Michelin !!!

Best tire for ride and mileage period.

I have used LTX M/S on both of my trucks and have been very pleased with the ride and quality of the tire. I get more mileage out of these tires than any other brand of tires. I have been running these tires for years and will not buy any other tire. Very pleased.

Awesome tires

Loved this product, when I put my first set on my 2003 chevy 2500 the ride was better and much quiter from the old factory tires, now I am on my second set of MS and I love them on my surburband not to mention the last set lasted 90,000 miles Travis in WV

GET MORE THAN YOUR MONEY'S WORTH !!

Great value! The ride is phenomenal! Safety and braking are very good. Peace of mind having my family members ride on these tires. Best of all.....the wear life is incredible with proper balancing and rotations! In today's world it is nice to find a value for your money. Thanks Michelin!

Last Set

Have had 7 LTX-MS2 tires replaced in the last year. Failures ranged from blowout at freeway speeds due to tread separation, sidewall puncture, tread penetration thru the belts by virtually anything. The 6th was a sudden sidewall failure and upon changing the tire noticed that the rip was about 4 inches long but the interesting part was the sidewall only had ONE belt--not two like printed on the tire. Previously ran 2 sets of Michelin tires over 100,000 miles each with NO failures.

Long wearing

Good looking, long wearing tire. Whenever I've put LTX M/S on a vehicle those were the last tires I bought for the vehicle. Great traction on the beach. I buy AWD vehicles to drive on the beach, and LTX M/S is the best tire for off road and on road. The only inhibition is price. The most expensive tire you can buy.

Much improved ride

Needed new tires for my 2018 Honda CR-V and wanted to improve the ride quality. These tires nailed it! Much improved in both the ride handling, smoothness, and lower road noise inside the vehicle. Also simply feels more sure-footed in the rain. Looking forward to seeing a difference in winter snow.

Great Tires

I bought a used Honda Ridgeline in 2008 that had these tires. About 200k miles and 4 sets of tires later, I am looking for another set of these tires. I average about 600 miles a week and living in Colorado I see all kinds of inclement weather and road conditions (even dirt!). These tires have saved my life more than once. Highly recommended! Long life and great traction in all kinds of conditions. And doing a ton of hi-speed (avg 80mph) driving, these tires spin smooth and I have no complaints on road noise.
