Best tires I have ever had installed on any of my vehicles. The original tires were replaced at 19k by the local Ford dealer and were rotated every other oil cahang. I have 94k on my 2005 Ford Explorer which is used in all weather. I live in the mountains of western PA. The tire wear was incredable. I know if winter wasn't coming I could easly get a few more months out of them. I am planning on buying a new set soon...yes they will be Michelins

Bought these tires 60k+ miles ago. Been very happy with them. We have used them in snow, ice, rain, dirt and dry desert roads. Family camping trips, cross country road trips and daily drives. They have held up great. I'm on here planning ahead for my next set, so figured I'd leave a review.

I just replaced our 2007 Sprinter's LTX M/S 2 tires with the Defender LTX (it seems the LTX M/S 2 was replaced by these), and wanted to mention that the M/S 2's were really a great set of tires. There was still a little tread left above the wear bars at 111,000 miles over five years of driving in all sorts of Texas weather. I also ride a road bicycle and am always pleased with Michelin's bicycle tires too.

Recommend by a coworker who has them. I'm very happy with my purchase, smooth ride, excellent grip and they supposedly last many miles. Just drove them on our first Wisconsin slippery winter conditions for the season and my new Michelin Defenders handled it great.

This is my 2nd set of Defender LTX M/S tires for my 2008 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab. I'm surprised to read that the latest reviews all comment about the road noise! One of the reasons I love these tires is because they are very quite!!! I've never had any road noise with either set of tires. I used to work out of state and had to make a 350 mile round trip each week. My first set held up so well that I basically had to replace them due to dry rot from age and not from wear. They work well in the rain and don't hydroplane easily.

I leave home most the time very early before the sun comes up and travel 70 to 100 miles one way almost every day when I'm in town and reliability is very important to me and my family. When I'm out of town my wife's truck has the same tires and it makes us sleep at night knowing we can depend on our travel with Michelin tires. Win lose or draw we appreciate the efforts by Michelin to produce a dependable and reliable product. Thank you from me and my family

Had my LTX M/S tires for a year. They are fantastic! I've probably put 10,000 miles on them and they still look new. I've bought many sets of Michelin over the years and they've all stood up well for distance driving and local driving. I live in the NC mountains, so they really have to grip a lot of curbs--and they do grip. Pay the extra; it's worth it!

2015 F-150 XLT SuperCab. Photos are of the tires 4 years and 80,250 miles later. Rotated them with every other oil change. They would probably go another 10,000! Driven in snow, heavy rain, construction sites, and have pulled trailers. Even wear, quiet, and great in rain and during quick braking. Buying another set this week.

I drive a Ford F250 diesel to Mexico and back each year pulling a 10,000 lb trailer so tires are important. I am into my third set of Defenders which realistically last about 75,000 km before tread wear begins to be an issue for long distance travel. Of the 15,000 km per year I drive the truck, half of it is pulling a trailer. I choose these tires not only because Ford recommends them but also because they give me very good fuel economy even pulling a trailer (17 L/km pulling and 8 L/km not pulling).

Dear Sir or Madam: Back in 2004 I purchased my Nissan pathfinder Armada LE a 6500 lb SUV. After Trying other Brands I and being gravely disappointed on how poorly the tires lasted, I purchased my first set, my second set and now my 4th set of Michelin Tires. The Armada now has 240,000 miles on it. A lot of miles in the rearview mirror, but my Michelin lasted well past the Warranty stated at purchased. And yes I used Nirogen, and did the rotations and alignments and balancing etc. And Hocus Pocus they lasted, well past the warranty milage...So the "Beast" just keeps rolling. best Regards, Gray Ghost, Raleigh NC
