Michelin Agilis tire for tow vehicle

Does anybody have experience using the Michelin Agilis Crossclimate tire on their tow vehicle?

I have been using the Michelin Defender LTX MS and have been not been disappointed in the key areas of puncture resistance, even wear, noise and longevity etc, etc.

The Agilis is identically priced, appears to offer the promise of better tread life with no apparent downsides. It is marketed as being commercial.

I think Michelin has a tire comparison chart on their website. If it’s still there it would be very helpful.

I have used Michelin tires since around 2007. Very sturdy and last 40-60K miles (I can't remember exactly). I think 40K is low tho.

I have the Agilis on my 2015 GMC Denali Dually and have been very happy with them. They ride nice empty and perform well when pulling the Montana 3625. This is my 5th dually and usually ran the LTX's but these I think are better riding. I have about 8K on them now.

Quick update: Based on positive responses I took the plunge and installed the first two Agilis tires in Feb 2022. No Issues after about 5k miles towing and 10k total including one unexpected snowpacked pass while towing. Planning be buying another two shortly. The tires seems to be quiet, good ride and noticeably grippy.
