Michelin LTX M/S2

Combining long tread life with all-season capabilities.

Michelin's Highway All-Season light truck tire, the LTX M/S2 was developed for vans, pickups and sport utility vehicles, as well as for commercial vans, shuttles and chassis cab vehicles using light truck tire sizes. Compared to its predecessor, the LTX M/S, it has evolved in appearance and performance. The LTX M/S2 is designed to combine a smooth, quiet ride with year-round traction in dry, wet and wintry conditions. Twin steel belts, a part of the tire’s internal structure, provides the toughness and grit needed to handle hefty loads.

Blending a long wearing, silica-enhanced, All-Season compound into a tread profile featuring Michelin's MaxTouch Construction, a contact patch is produced. This creates reliable traction and long wear by evenly distributing acceleration, braking and cornering forces. High-density 3-D Active Sipes are featured in stable independent tread blocks with a symmetric tread design. This delivers all-season traction on dry roads as well as in inclement weather. To promote lateral water evacuation as well as to enhance wet traction and stopping performance, the LTX M/S2 features four wide circumferential channels, multiple lateral grooves and open shoulder slots.
