FAQ
Is the Michelin LTX Trail good?
Yes, for pickups and SUVs driven mostly on paved roads with some off-road use. Tests in Thailand by TÜV Rheinland, commissioned by Michelin, found it lasts 41% longer than leading tires on the market and stops 3.1 meters shorter in the wet when new and 4.6 meters shorter when nearly worn.
Is the LTX Trail quiet?
Yes. Michelin uses Duo-Harmony tread blocks to spread out sound frequencies, and tests at 100 km/h in a Toyota Hilux Revo found cabin noise 19.8% lower than the premium tire it was compared with.
Can the LTX Trail go off-road?
Yes, for light off-road use. Michelin designed it for both paved roads and off-road, with an open shoulder for traction and a sidewall that resists cuts and punctures. If you regularly drive in heavy mud or on rocky trails, look at a dedicated heavy off-road tire.
