I have been using them for the past 20 years on 4 different vehicles.
You get what you pay for.
I have easily gotten 70,000 and up to 80,000 out of them.
The ride is far superior to other tires I have tried. We replaced the Firestones on the Suburban with these and the right was very much improved, much quieter and a lot smoother. I was going to go with Goodyear or a less expensive tire as now our tires age out rather than wear out, however the Michelins were only about 25.00 more each so it was a no-brainer to go with a far superior tire.
I am replacing the 285-75-16's on the F250 after the first of the year with the LTX/AT LT and have an out the door price of 875.00 from a mom/pop tire shop a short drive away from here. I am currently running LTX/MS but am changing now since moving here I use a lot of boat ramps that are on dirt roads and need the traction.
I will probably now have the same experience as eichacsj above and these will age out and crack as we now drive around 5000 miles per year and will not wear them out. I drive company car for work and our vehicles are only for personal pleasure use.
