Tires with great traction and stability boost control, especially in tough weather conditions, promoting a sense of security and peace for the driver and passengers. If you want to maximize these elements, choose a trusted brand like Michelin. The new Defender LTX Platinum is an all season highway tire designed for light truck owners who want the best from their ride.

Starting off, the Michelin Defender LTX Platinum has a unique tread pattern engineered to increase performance on paved roads. The carefully designed channels not only enhance self cleaning but also add extra biting edges that raise grip. Thanks to the lateral grooves, this tire can easily traverse wet and snowy roads without giving up comfort or safety. Its abundant siping maximizes traction and balance in harsh weather conditions, keeping you in control at all times. Also, the aggressive open shoulders improve the cornering accuracy, helping you easily take sharp turns.

In addition, the internal build of the Michelin Defender LTX Platinum has a dual ply polyester casing that supports two steel belts. This increases durability, especially at higher speeds. Besides that, it aids in handling precision for more responsiveness on the road. The tire's Evertread 2.0 rubber compound resists cuts and abrasions, ensuring a long service life without issues. Moreover, the materials are molded into a symmetric tread pattern that combines with Michelin's MaxTouch 2.0 Technology to boost dry grip. Its stylish yet durable sidewalls offer rim protection against curb damage. At last, this model is available on the US market in popular sizes such as LT275/65R20, fitting a wide range of light trucks.
