I’ve got Micheline Cross Terrains on my ‘97 EB you can’t mention Goodyear and Michelin in the same breath. Its like comparing a Yugo to a Ferrari

Response:

Since I’ve had a complete set of goodyears fail one me, I’d be cautious of them. Michelin makes a *GREAT* tire, as does BF Goodrich (seems I read these are the same company?).  Looks like I should be getting about 80k out of the Long Trail T/A’s on my Santa Fe, judging by the rate of wear now with 31k on it. TireRack has a sale on these tires right now – $66/ea for the 225/70R16 T-rated.  So cheap, but such a small size… if I still had my nissan truck, it’d sport a full set (and new rims JS

What he said!! Seriously, I have the LTX ATs on my ‘97 and the LTX M/S on my 2K. They’re great tires, harkening back to the days when Michelin was THE tire manufacturer of choice for all our imports. Regards, James

Need to change tires soon, was wondering what people thought of the Michelin LTXs or the new Goodyear Forteras.  I’m kinda partial to the Goodyears, but I’ve been told that the Michelins may be better.  I wont be going offroad, and snow is minimal here in Northern VA. (think washington DC). 1995 explorer, air ride control, x-spec anti sway bars (These things make the explorer corner so much easier and stiffens the ride, if you don’t have them – get them WELL worth the money. www.explorerexpress.com) thanks patrick

Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins! Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins! Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins!  Michelins! Michelins!  Michelins! I have 60,000 miles on mine and there is at least another 10 left in them. I bought mine for $109 each at Sam’s Club, plus another $7.50 for mounting, lifetime rotating and road hazard warranty.  I couldn’t be happier with the low noise, great ride, and reasonable traction in Columbus, Ohio’s mild winters. Regards, Dave
