Product Details

The Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 is a premium all-season highway terrain tire engineered specifically for modern light trucks, full-size SUVs, and commercial vans. This tire represents a complete redesign aimed at meeting the demands of today's larger, more powerful vehicles while delivering exceptional tread life and all-season performance.

Advanced Tread Technology:

  • EverTread 2.0 Compound: Specially formulated to resist pressure and abrasion under heavy loads and high torque, providing significantly extended tread life
  • 3D SipeLock High-Density Technology: Full-depth sipes maintain block cohesion on dry roads while providing biting edges for enhanced wet and snow traction throughout the tire's life
  • Symmetrical Tread Design: Closely-spaced independent blocks deliver greater rigidity and more even wear than the previous generation
  • Four Wide Grooves: Efficient water evacuation from the contact patch ensures confident braking and traction on wet roads

Performance Benefits:

  • Delivers up to two additional years of tread life compared to leading competitive tires
  • 50,000-mile treadwear limited warranty for LT sizes
  • Piano Acoustic Tuning technology smooths out road noise for a quiet, comfortable ride
  • Reliable year-round traction in rain, snow, and dry conditions
  • Reduced braking distances for enhanced safety
  • Compatible with electric vehicles (EV)

Construction:

  • Double polyester carcass for stable, crisp steering response
  • Two steel belts ensure highway reliability and strength
  • Load Range E (10-ply rated) for heavy-duty applications

Tire Specifications:

  • Size: LT275/60R22
  • Service Description: 125/122S
  • Maximum Load: 3,638 lbs
  • Overall Diameter: 34.99 inches

I Called and asked basic question but was told I can not be helped and was referred to sales, which was closed or out of office. I emailed sales and received zero response. Not what I expected.

Item arrived extremely fast exactly what we wanted no issues good service

Easy

Super fast ship and best price!

Easy to order.

I mistakingly ordered two of the product. someone from customer service contacted me to verify it I actually wanted two. So we cancelled the extra order. Most companies would not go that step in customer service, much appreciated. The product arrived really fast and was exactly what I ordered and worked perfectly.

thank you

Quick and easy

THM had the correct bearing at a good price and delivery was prompt.
