Review Summary
The Michelin Premier LTX tires offer excellent ride quality, handling, and traction, especially in wet and snowy conditions. However, many customers report premature tread wear, often well before the advertised 60,000-mile warranty. Some had to replace the tires as early as 30,000-40,000 miles. Customers also noted issues with the warranty support, as the company was unwilling to fully honor the warranty when the tires wore out early. While the performance benefits are notable, the poor tread life and warranty concerns are significant drawbacks to consider.

Fantastic tire!
I put Michelin Premiere LTX on my wife's 2014 Lincoln MKX back in December as the original Pirelli scorpions were shot after only 27k. Drove to a wedding in Alabama (8hrs one way) last weekend and these tires performed just as expected, flawlessly! I believe they saved a deer's life a couple weeks ago also! I have new Michelin's on my Lexus too! Best tires money can buy. Hope I get the expected life from both sets. I'll review tread life after next winter.
55R 19 new on my Santa fe
Car handles much better with the premier xlt's. Got les than 40k from OEM continentals. Hope the michelins last longer.
Disappointed
After approximately 27,000 miles, I was told that two of my tires needed to be replaced for safety. These are rated for 60,000 miles. I had these tires rotated every 5,000 to 8,000 miles. These tires DO NOT meet the Michelin standard. I would never recommend purchasing these tires. Very disappointed!!!
Pleasantly Surprised
I had always heard the hype about how Michelin tires were superior to every other brand, but now I am thoroughly convinced. I just put a set of Premiere LTX tires on my 2012 Nissan Murano and it rides like a dream. No road noise from tire, and smooth as silk. Very pleased!
Thanks for the great feedback 2012murano!

Instantly fell in love with these tires
I have been beyond impressed with these tires in the short period I've had them. Not only are they great in all weather conditions, but they provide a cloud like ride on bumps and turns. I get the look of a rugged SUV and the feel of a luxury vehicle. Exceptionally satisfied and would recommend to anyone with an SUV.
Thanks for your feedback Aimee! It's much appreciated.

Long time Michelin customer. Have replaced tires on all vehicles with Cross Terrains, Latitude Tours, LTX A/T 2s, and now these. Put these on my wife's 2013 Ford Escape Titanium (with 19s) to replace the factory Continentals. Significantly smoother and more grip. We did notice a drop in MPG of about 1.2 MPGs. However, when we got caught in a serious snow storm at Hunter Mountain in upstate NY, I was happy to have these tires. Didn't slip or hesitate once with these on there. I was considering the Defender LTX for my Grand Cherokee, but now may go with the Premier LTX instead! Great Tire as expected. Thanks Michelin!
Awesome Tires!
Had Michelin Latitude tires for 56,000 miles and thought they were very good tires. Put a set of Michelin Premier LTX tires on my 2012 Highlander 4,000 miles ago and WOW! What a difference! First time on the highways around Houston I was smiling and saying to myself "Now these are great tires" Smooth ride and quiet. They seem to be made of a much softer and gripier material. Really good in the rain....no hydroplaning. If you want a significantly better tire for your SUV....get these. You will see what I mean immediately.
Thanks for your feedback Jim! It's much appreciated.

Noisy
I was looking to replace my Michelin LTX M/S tires, which I loved, and this is what BO recommended. They sound like knobbies. Very loud hum. And my mileage has slipped a bit. Traction seems very good though. Too early to tell about wear. But overall wouldn't recommend.
Road Noise and tire whine.
Bought the Premier LTX 55x50x20 tires for my Ford Explorer. Good tire but at 120 + KM per hour there is a real noticeable road noise and tire hum or whine.Tires are inflated to 35lb as they should be .

Bought this for snow
I am now in my 2nd winter with these tires and I couldn't be more pleased. Outstanding traction on snow packed roads and even do a good job on the icy roads here in Colorado. These tires still look brand new and are performing as well as when they were first installed. I would highly recommend.
Thanks for the great feedback bus driver!
