Amazing
These tires are very comfortable and make for a super smooth ride. I really enjoyed the size of these on my vehicle. I take road trips often and having these off road tires did not compromise my comfort. I would highly recommend these to anyone! I will never choose a brand other than Michelin.

Great
Came just in time for the snow here. Had no issues overall. It's been over a month since we put them on. Great tread, have used on multiple terrains and no issues. Didn't like having to peel off all the stickers though.

Great Allrounder Tires
These are great tires that are all-rounder for light weight trucks. The treads are great and will easily last longer than other tires. These are pretty standard with 20" rims so you don't have to change the rims as well. The road noise is not much, but it depends on what you put these on. if you put these on Jeep with 20" rims, then as the jeep itself is noisy, these will make more noise. but if you put it on Ford F150, then the noise is not much. It feels great to drive on these tires and can be sure that it would navigate through anything that in not Mud or Snow. these tires does lack little grip in rain, but that would be any tire. all in all great tires, nothing to complain. you get what you pay.

Great Traction
Really happy to be able to find something on my Jeep with good traction. Here in Texas as soon as the road gets a little wet its end game. They really do mean it that no one can drive here, but it can be the roads. I am originally from the Midwest. I've been through it all, but never have I slipped around just on a basic misty rain even in a before in a brand new Wrangler Rubicon with huge new off roading tires slipping in the rain.. At this point I knew it was more that just me. The road are like a slippery treadmill out there. These tires have offered me more piece of mind, when it comes to driving around in wet conditions. Even something as simple as making a quick turn, I am not fishtailing every single time. These provide traction and grip that is needed to keep you rolling.

Poor in snow
Just put these on today. Very smooth and quiet. If you live in a cold climate area that gets snow steer clear. The design does not self clean and it took 4WD in my flat driveway to get through 6 inches of snow. Dealer tossed there hands in the air. Michelin is working with me to replace within their 60 ride quality guaranty.

Great Tire - Lives up to the price!
I had these installed on my 2020 F250 King Ranch on 11/30/23. They replaced BFG All Terrains KO2's. I've placed 7158 miles on them so far and they've been a fantastic tire! Quiet, comfortable, and good looking. Wet and dry road performance has been fantastic! They do hold gravel a bit more as another person has mentioned but it hasn't been a factor for me.

Amazing!
This product was extremely amazing! They look gorgeous and are aesthetically pleasing. They made for a very comfortable and quiet driving experience. They are very luxurious and have really great longevity. Impeccable quality too.

Awesome new technology! ✅
I purchased these tires on January 12th They are so nice, Talk about quiet! Wou don’t hear them on the road ✅ Heavy Duty! I have a 2016 GMC Denali HD 3500 Diesel

Disappointing
Bought these a couple of weeks ago. Might be good if you never leave pavement, but of all the tires I have owned, they clog with gravel worse than any other tire I have bought. They ride very quietly when clear, but the block tread allows rocks to enter making them very noisy back on the asphalt. Even at beyond highway speeds they will not clear. If you leave the road for any reason, be ready to listen to the sound of popcorn in your tires until you get out and manually clear them... This has led to minor visible damage to the tread in less than 200 miles. On the bright side, maybe the rock "studs" will make them good for ice...

I have been running these tires for almost a month now. I have driven in town, interstate, rain, snow, and dry road conditions. So far, they have done nothing but impress! If you are on the fence about tires, you really should consider these!
