Have a 2011 GMC Yukon XL with the Denali rims. The Bridgestone Dueler's that came with the truck are starting to slip pretty badly in the rain around town.

Also I was recently on the interstate in moderate to heavy rain and got stuck in the rut, wasn't a big rut but it was enough to get the heart pumping for a few seconds.

We live in Florida so when it rains, it RAINS. I'm thinking of going with these, has a 70k man limited warranty and well I've heard Michelin are the best but having a hard time differentiating which Michelins to get.

Michelin XLT A/S - 275/55R20 113T $900.08 installed

The bf Goodrich t/a's I ran on my 2door gt. Could go through 2 feet of water in 2wd. Quiet as a baby on the pavement. What are they called now...tko's?

Those tires are junk. We see them all the time. Around half tread just throw em out. Toyo ht and yokohama ht or yokohama at 15 are top sellers for us

Did they balance out easy? I'm replacing Bridgestone Duelers with these.
Yeah no issues other than slow leak on rear two but it was bad valve stems from installer

I see a lot of people buying them so they must be doing something right and are made by Falken.

I'm new to Tahoes but I've never been disappointed with Michelins. I ran a set on my Buick Roadmaster for years and with 72000 miles on them they still ride well and handle fine on dry roads. Not gonna pump any water out of the worn tread but still quiet too.

I run Michelins on my bike (BMW), on my wife's car, and plan to get them for my Tahoe LTZ soon.

I just recently put on grabber hts 60 and so far they have been great. I have also ran cooper discoverer ht plus and liked those as well.

I don't like the stock Bridgestone or the Michelin ltz.

I had two sets of Duelers and got over 50K on each. Switched to a set of Michelin LTX MS2s (now discontinued) and they were whacked from the start. Spent the better part of a year and 20K miles trying to get a vibration out and Discount Tire finally made me a deal I couldn't refuse to pull them off. I now have the Michelin Defenders (replaced the LTX/MS2) and they've got 20K on them and are barely worn. I should have no issue getting the 70K they are warrantied for.
