Not happy

Not happy with these tires way too much weight they use 5 1/2 half ounces or more. Took it back they just moved them from the inside. The inside rim truck has a vibration now it didn’t help by moving the weights to a different place from the inside rim to the outside would not recommend this tire vibration of seats are shaking was not like this before about the tires had original tires bought the truck new Has never been wrecked. Wheels are not bent just poor quality tire they’re telling me this is normal.

Michelin Defenders are the superior choice for your light duty truck, Take care of your tires, and they will take care of you!

Vehicle: 2018 Sierra 1500 All Terrain Tire Size: 275/55R-20 These are by far the best tires I have ever purchased. Ride comfort, low road noise, longevity, durability, climate grip, and so much more. The first set of Michelin Defender LTS M/S2 tires I purchased for my truck on Nov. 15 2019, the odometer was at 70,953 miles. The tires were religiously rotated every 7,500 miles and the air pressure checked and maintained every month. Today, Nov. 17, 2023, I purchased my second set of Michelin Defender LTS M/S2 tires for my truck and my odometer reads 209,777 miles. That's an incredible 138,824 miles on the first set. Incredible! I put a lot of miles on my truck throughout the year, and these Michelins are worth every penny.
