Have 19" Latitude tour HP from April - covered just few thousands kms but have only positives - very quiet and nice handling on dry or wet.Tried them off road (medium) in mud and wet grass and no problems. My second opinion was Pirelli Scorpion Verde....may be also worth a look.

There are four different types of Lattitude tyres.
I have the Lattitude Tour HP which i havn't used for a while.

They are long lasting and and very good in both wet and dry. And quiet.
However, the performance on snow and ice leaves a lot to be desired, but that also applies to all summer tyres.
Premium tyre at a premium price, but if you do low mileage be aware that Mich compounds are known to deteriorate with age. Dont let that put you off if you do average mileage.

What I should have said they were the latitude cross

I had four of the 17" lattitude cross on my last FL2. Felt to me a big improvement over factory fit contis. Much quieter at motorway speeds. I never had a chance to test them off road, but I'd recommend. Fuji White MY13 SD4 Dynamic
gone: Rimini Red MY10 td4_e XS

glad to hear this, ours is having 4 fitted tomorrow.

will let you know,

dont forget Im from Yorkshire, so a bit of bartering /trading is involved.

I have the latitude cross fitted to both my FL2 and a CRV. Mileage/wear is excellent, currently on 35K miles of use with reasonable tread remaining, and road noise is ok - I don't really notice any difference in any tyre for road noise mind you.

Up here in the North, performance in deep or packed snow and ice is really excellent and as for normal road conditions they are very good in wet or dry.

They've never let me down at all and I would buy these again - price point dependent. I paid £142 each for mine including fitting from tyre express back in 2010.

I have 245 45 20 Lattitudes on mine and I say I am very impressed in all weathers. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

I had the tyres fitted today at £140 a corner then went on the web site to claim the £50 fuel voucher only to find it is at participating dealers only.The Mitchelin guy I spoke to at the Ceareals Event never said anything about that,so it feels like he is a lying tw@t.However the tyres look good and are quiet just need to see what they are like in the mud and snow
Mini rant over
Forgot to say it also passed its MOT with flying colours

We have covered 30k on the Michelin Latitude tour Hp and still have 4/5 m tread left

Hi all

I have the Michelien Lattitude Cross tyres on both our FL1's since they came available a few years ago and cannot rate them high enough both for wear, drivabilty, noise and use off ( mild ) roa, on road and moderate (12 inches ) snow conditions.

When they were first introduced they were on limited sizes but as soon as they became availble for 18" FL2, my current vehicle, I had no hestitation in buying a full set instead of the Pirelli Scorpions which I found poor on milage.

Had the Cross tyres on my FL2 only a couple of months now but have signed onto the Michelin web site on which you can log the tyre depths over the coming months and they even send you a reminder when to do it.

I will post my reults when I do it.

Looking forward to many miles on these excelent tyres.
