Anyone run Michelin LTX M/S2 GreenX?

Gonna need new tires soon. My truck sits alot cause of fuel economy so I'm thinking of getting the low rolling resistance tires and was wondering if anyone is running these and what your opinion of them is.

I have the LTX_MS2 on my truck and like them. They have only been on for 8000 miles but had LTX-MS on before and had good luck with them too. I retired from Michelin so I am a little bias. I put the MS2s on before we took a 7000 mile trip and had no problems. I put about 60000 on the MSs and would have run them further but wanted new ones before the trip.

Mich's wear like iron. I have a set mounted on my dad's 94 right now and he can't believe how nice they ride. When his was new he ordered the off road mud and snow tires which were Goodyear Wranglers and they wore out pretty fast. He's had Les Schwab Tough Country and then TOYO's and he said the Mich's are the best so far after 97K and 18 years of the same truck.

Not sure what the "green" means other than enviro-correct.

My .02 = you can't really go wrong with Michelin's.

runnin 265/75/16 LTX AT's on my Tahoe- we bought them in 1996 and they still have 40% tread on them.... we dont drive that rig much, mostly sits in the barn and collects dust with the <$3 gallon price of fuel. The rig only has 73K on it!

Green is for low rolling resistance
