Michelin Defender LTX Tires

[Stbentoak]

Which Bridgestone's came out from under you? There are many variations for our trucks.

All new 21+ Tahoe's and Yukon's come with Alenza's as OEM. Not to many have anything good to say about them, including me. I'll try to get to 20K on them just to get some good out of them, but it's Michelin or Pirelli's after that....

I believe I have the same Bridgestone's on my 23 Escalade. 22" 275/50-22". They come from the factory with only 10/32's. When most come with 12/32's. I'm down to 7/32's and they go nowhere in the snow. Just spin. If we are talking about the same tires. But I never had a problem in the rain at 7/32's.

Are those the "previous" model? There's a newer model (where the tread pattern wraps more around the shoulder into the sidewall), yes? Did you have the option of the newer model when you put those on your truck? I'm wondering what the differences are between the two.

Sorry I missed this. Mine are the “OG” defenders. I think you’re referring to the Defender MS2’s?

Indeed. Thanks for the info!
