Comfort & Longevity Bundled In
Glad that I chose this set for my SUV, Appreciable improvement in mileage as well as better comfort specially for long drives. Great longevity inspite of heavy duty use that I put my SUV through, with cutting edge aesthetics. I am enjoying the quiet and comfortable rides after I changed to this set of tires.
Amazing
I must admit with all this bad weather we’ve recently had these tires have made it even more safe to drive my truck in unsafe weather conditions. I have noticed I don’t drift or slide as much as I did with my previous tires. These tires are very durable and rain and slippery roads. I am completely convinced that these are the best tires fit for any truck.
Great
These fit great on my dodge truck! I love the way they perform on the road and they have minimal road noise. They are good brand I like Michelin tires and would recommend them to friends. The defender series seems tough and reactive to my driving
Riding in Style and Silence
First off, these tires are smooth. Like, Sunday-morning-drive-with-coffee-in-hand smooth. No more road roar or feeling like you're constantly wrestling the wheel. They grip the road like nobody's business, giving you the confidence to take that on-ramp a little faster, or maybe even navigate a surprise downpour without white-knuckling the wheel. You also have peace of mind from knowing you've got 70,000 miles of worry-free tread on these tires. Michelin Defender LTX Platinum's are smooth, grippy, stylish, and built to last. They're the perfect upgrade for any truck owner who wants the best of both worlds, on the road and in the looks department. Trust me, these are worth the cost. 2 thumbs up!
Best Michelin ever.
I bought these tires December 2023.
Fantastic Tire! Great job Michelin
Decided to give this tire a try on my GMC 2500HD and they have exceeded my expectations! Drove over 100 miles on ice covered roads and the truck handled amazing! The truck is glued to the road on dry pavement and handled amazing on wet roads. Would recommend this tire to anyone.
Great Tires
I bought a set of these tire to replace all terrains on my RAM 2500. These tires have a smooth quiet ride and give about 1 mpg better performance. They look great too.
Awesome tire!
Just bought a set and they look sweet and ride even sweeter!
Impressed
I bought the 295-65-20 from Discount Tire for my 2022 Ram 2500 about 3 weeks ago. While it has only been a short time, I am very impressed with the ride, handling and quiet ride from these tires. I use my truck primarily to tow a 34” travel trailer and am looking forward to an improved ride and handling experience from the stock tires.

Next Level of Awesomeness!
I will add pics soon, these tires are on whole other level! 1st thing I noticed is that they are extremely quiet I mean like insanely quiet! I found noises inside my cab that I have never heard before. secondly, something stood out was the faster you are driving the more the tires want to stay straight ahead you can actually feel the resistance if you were to slightly move the wheel. This obviously must have to do with the stange tread. and third cornering, my truck weighs over 8k in traffic circles, tight turns I have much less body roll. These tires are insanely cool! I have not had inclement weather to test them however i did test them in wet locations from a stop aggressively throttled and noticed no spin. Very smooth on our dirt road with aggressive turning no skidding. I have already noticed very low rolling resistance I will document my MPG savings as well as bad weather driving as have the chance. I have a feeling these tires are going to become the next best thing especially for EV's. My Tires are 295/65/R20 Load range E. These tires are 35's and will fit stock height 2021 GMC2500HD's No modification necessary.
