Fixed by someone who actually had a set of LTX's... instead of someone speaking from second hand experience at best. Most expensive set of tires I've ever bought, and by far the WORST set.
Re-fixed by somebody who has had at least five sets of LTX M/S and M/S2 tires on three different vehicles
We have several sets in the driveway right now. LTX MS and MS2 may be one of Michelin's best ever, but my PSS's are great too.
The MS/2s that were on my F-150 went nearly 80K and were some of the best tires I have ever owned. I cannot say the same for the AT/2s on my F-250 and with the exception of the MS/2s, I tend to find most Michelin tires are long on promise (and price) but are short on delivering those promises. Every OEM Michelin I have had (except the MS/2s) in the last 10 years has been absolute junk. Michelins were not on the list for replacements on the Explorer.

Well it would appear the M/S2 isn't available in that size anyways so yeah, I could understand you not considering other Michelin offerings based on your experience.
Sometimes its the chassis/unit NOT the tire fault - a good tire will not make a prezel chassis drivable. An MOST are tweaked - few are super straight. I think the WORST tire I've bought was a base goodyear VIVA or ? Some of the best were Falken Ziex - they didnt last long, but had great performance on my 2005 Suzuki Aerio SX 2.3L MT5.

Installed the back two today and for $135 each, I am very satisfied with the look, quality, and ride thus far:
