It seems a toss up between the two. This is from the Michelin people.
"Michelin XLT A/S: Treadlife (10/10), Fuel Econ (9/10), Off Road (6/10), Braking (7/10), Comfort (9/10)
Michelin Defender LTX M/S: Treadlife (10/10), Fuel Econ (8/10), Off Road (7/10), Braking (8/10), Comfort (8/10)"
Size would be 265/70R17 however now I am reading about Michelin tires dry rotting long before the tread life is gone. Splits in the side wall or cracks in the tread are never good.
