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.

Great Safe Michelin Tires
I bought these tires from my experience having Michelin tires on several of my company vehicles as well as my own personal cars over the years I had a blowout in route from Phoenix to Tucson a few years ago and the treads of the tire stayed in tact while the sidewall blew out which kept me on the road for over a mile when I was able to pull over safely and called AAA and they came and replace my tire with my spare while in route on a business trip thank God I had Michelin tires. After 40 automobiles in my 69 years I am pleased to say I would never own another brand of tires which I have had many brands in my lifetime. But my Michelin's are the best and I would highly recommend them to anyoneYou can skimp on price but not safety. I give Michelin five stars !!
Very Noisy Tire
I bought theses tires a week ago, in the city they are fine, good handling and stability. Once on the highway, they are very loud. I had just taken off my winter Michelins cove and they quieter than the premier. I'm really disappointed and I'm considering Exchange using 30 day return policy.

Tire out of round trigger vibration at 70 mph ?
I have got 4 new Premier LTX 255-55R18 V rated tires. They are amazing in comfort, traction, handling on local street; however they are vibrating at 70 mph on freeway. I never experience vibration with Latitude HP tires which were replaced on same SUV. I research online and I have found people have same experience with vibration at high speed only with their new vehicles too. So far, the vibration is determined by "out of round". I am very dissapointed with initial quality. My tires are MADE IN POLAND instead of USA. I will bring my car back to America Tires as I just bought them 3 weeks ago and I hope new tires will not have vibration.
Very Disappointing Tire
I purchased this tire for my 2013 Honda Pilot hoping to get a superior tire, wow was I wrong. I'd like to qualify that though. I have had two sets of Primacy MXV4's on this same Pilot and got around 43k miles on each set. I was frustrated because those tires didn't get anywhere close to their mileage warranty. I decided to go with the latest and greatest tire being this Premier LTX. I just had to replace those tires after only 31k miles. I am extremely disappointed with the life of this tire. The tires wore properly and gave a great ride, they just don't last any where close to their rating. I would not recommend this tire for a Pilot.

Poor ride quality and therefore waaaay over-priced.
If you care anything about ride quality you will not like these tires. Apparently Michelin only makes one tire that fits my car, these, so I guess I'm done with Michelin for many years or maybe forever. Returning these. The Michelin's that came on the car were great but they're being phased out.

Big improvement over Perrili
A very quite smooth riding tire. Steering is quicker and more precise. Roll resistance is the most noticeable improvement! Haven't driven on a long distance trip yet but notice 2 miles per gallon more on local driving.
Satisfied customer
I have a 2015 Toyota Highlander XLE FWD, originally equipped w/ Michelin Latitude Tour 245/60R18. Had ~47K miles when one tire had to be repeatedly inflated. Yep, you guessed it; it had a nail in the sidewall (irrepairable). Bought 2 Premier LTX, same size, put on rear. Just one day into use, only on dry surface, I'm very happy. The car (tires) seems to be "sure-footed" (grips the road better than the Latitude Tour) & is quiet-riding. It's too early to brag about anything else; but, I'm happy that the salesman @ Discount Tire recommended them. When I replace the other two tires, the Premier LTX will be my first choice.
Michelin Premier LTX for Porsche with lighter foot
This time I put "not approved" non N-spec tires on my Porsche 955. I would have shoed her with Michelin Latitudes if I was still driving it. I gave this Porsche to my daughter who is 17 and I'm trusting Michelin again to provide safe and reliable shoes for her. They drive smooth and stop great!
We appreciate your business Clint, and look forward to serving your tire needs in the future.

Disappointed..Only got 35000 miles out of them!
Put these tires on in February 2015, was told they were a great tire, warranted for 60,000 Miles. When at the shop for routine service I was told I needed to replace the tires sooner than later.. Disappointing!! I will say however they were a quiet and smooth riding tire.

Outstanding Tire
Replaced the original Continentals that came with the 2014 Acura MDX/AWD with the Premier LTX. Definitely a smoother and quieter ride! No real complaints about the Continentals but I only got 41,000 out of them; 50/50 street/highway driving plus 10 miles a day in a canyon with many turns. After a drive to Palm Springs from L.A. I put these tires through the paces; pouring rain on the way out at speeds ranging from 65 to 75, on the way home very, very high cross winds and highway speeds of 65 to 80. A GREAT ride all in all. If I ran into heavy "rain groves" cut into the concrete on the freeway they tended to make the MDX "wonder" a little bit.
