I have had 3 sets of Michelin LTX M&S (now renamed to Defender LTX M/S) on an F-150 and an Expedition. I find them to be great tires (especially ride comfort and snow traction) with one major weakness. On both vehicles I immediately noticed much more wandering around from straight ahead to the point that I felt less safe. This was true both with the new tires as well as tires with some miles on them. They require more steering into the wind and the road crown to stay driving straight ahead. My vehicles are aligned so that's not the issue. The Michelins replaced Wranglers on the F-150 and OEM Continentals on the Expedition, and the difference was noticeable immediately. I have not considered these tires for my F-350 for this reason. It may not bother most folks, but it is enough for me to considered other brands first.
