I have had the Michelin Defender LTX on my pickup since fall 2020 and they
are wearing well, ride smooth and quiet.  I=E2=80=99ve used Michelins on tr=

since I worked in the tire dept at Sam=E2=80=99s in college.  They always t=
ook the
least amount of weights to balance and had the least returns for issues or
to rebalance.  The manager at Costco said that is all still true when I
bought the last set.  YMMV :)
