Our take on the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 275/55R20 117T BSW XL

The Defender LTX M/S2 is Michelin's all-season highway tire for light trucks and SUVs, sold here in a 275/55R20 size with an extra-load rating. It is built around long tread life, strong wet braking and a quiet, comfortable ride rather than off-road grip. It suits pickup and SUV owners who mostly drive paved roads and want a tire that lasts. Against rivals like the Goodyear Assurance and Bridgestone Dueler H/L, it leans on wet traction and treadwear more than on snow or trail capability.

Questions and answers

Is the Defender LTX M/S2 good in snow?
It handles light snow and cold pavement, but it is an all-season highway tire, not a winter tire. For regular deep snow, a dedicated winter set is the better choice.
How does it compare with the Defender LTX M/S?
Michelin positions the M/S2 as the successor, with improved wet grip and tread life. Owners upgrading from the older tire generally report the same quiet highway manners.
What does the 117T XL rating mean?
117 is the load index and T is the speed rating, up to 118 mph. The XL means extra load, so it carries more weight than a standard-load tire of the same size.
Is it good for towing?
Yes. The extra-load construction and stiff sidewall suit trucks that tow or haul, and the tread pattern is designed for highway stability under load.
Can I use it year-round?
Yes, for most climates. It is an all-season tire meant for paved roads in rain, heat and light snow, but not for serious off-roading.
Where is the Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 275/55R20 117T BSW XL cheapest?
At Performance Discounters, for $272.99, as of our latest check.
