Touring all-season tires provide unparallel balance of good year-round traction, comfortable ride and longer tread life. Branded with the Mud and Snow symbol, touring all-season tires are often used as Original Equipment with higher aspect ratio tire sizes, offering all-season versatility, smooth ride and durability.

Michelin Defender LTX M/S tire is developed to combine long tread life with a smooth, quiet ride with year-round traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions, even in light snow. Compared to the popular Michelin LTX M/S2 it replaces, the new Defender LTX M/S tires share the same highly functional tread pattern, and offer improvements in wear life/longevity to better meet the high-torque demands of modern trucks. Defender LTX M/S is designed to be stronger, longer. Defender LTX M/S tires feature Michelin Evertread compound, which is a stronger advanced compound that holds up to tougher conditions longer. This compound is molded into a symmetric tread design of stable independent tread blocks featuring high-density 3-D Active Sipes to deliver all-season traction on dry roads and in inclement weather. Four wide circumferential channels, multiple lateral grooves and open shoulder slots promote lateral water evacuation to enhance wet traction and stopping performance. The tire's profile features Michelin's MaxTouch Construction to produce a contact patch that promotes reliable traction and long wear by evenly distributing acceleration, braking and cornering forces. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts to provide the strength and durability needed to handle heavy loads.
