The new Defender LTX M/S tire series, from Michelin, is designed for heavy, high-torque transporting trucks. The tire has a feature called Evertread, a stronger compound that withstands tough weather conditions and delivers better gravel wear, longevity, and fuel efficiency. As trucks produce substantially more torque than they did a generation ago, the Defender LTX M/S lasts 10 percent longer in severe conditions than previous models. The tires are offered with a 50,000- or 70,000-mile warranty.
