Look like they are coming out with Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 275/55-21 that will come in end of July.

Saves me from having to go aftermarket wheels and tires.

That's big news!

Hopefully this is the case and I can squeeze enough life out of my current tires to make it until then.

Does it matter too much the sidewalls are 55, not 65 (oem)?

the michelin website shows a 21" size but in a 50 aspect ratio different, which I don't believe was there previous but maybe it was as they are available on tire rack and costco: https://www.michelinman.com/auto/tires/michelin-defender-ltx-m-s?tyreSize=21

I wrote Michelin seeing if I can get an answer.. Summit tech support didn't know much either.

Not a single mainstream website has these tires but a ton of rando's do...

I have a rotation at America's Tires today I'll give them the part number and see if they have anything on their radar.

Please be true....please be true....please be true.

A ton of them also have it listed for the 20" AT size as well. Again, nothing main stream.
