On outside edge of tires there's a lot of excess rubber left on the tires from the manufacturing process . I've been a customer for over 20 years . And always purchase mich defenders . They never look like this

Purchased the first of the year (2021) for my 2015 4Runner and am very pleased with the ride. I had the defenders on my 2004 4Runner and they lasted also. Very pleased

Michelin has been my go to tire for all my vehicles. This is the second set I put on my MDX-the first set lasted 70,000 miles. These tires are silent on the goad and perform well in snow as well.

Just a simple note to advise I have driven on Michelin tires for at least the past 40 years. I do not shop around and simply have another set installed. Tires are the only thing between yourself and the road.

Bought them a year ago. They are great in rain, snow, and slush. Not to mention great grip on dry pavement. Great side wall strength. Have not had any issues with hard cornering.

This is my third set on this car and over the years I have had several sets. Michelin Tires are my favorite brand. I have 6 vehicles and Michelin are on all but 1 (Original Tires are on now but will switch when needed)

I have been driving michellin defender over 4 years. Incredible tire performance is amazing in all weather snow rain sunny freezing cold and summer Driving experience is beautiful

I have had the tires for about 5 months now. They are wearing great. The only downside is driving on dirt/gravel roads. They like to throw little rocks.

I was very unhappy with the tires I had on my truck. Switching to these tires had made the ride so nice and road noise has gone away completely. I can hear my radio!!.

I wanted a longer wearing tire than my last Michelin tire. I was told these will wear longer and the ride was quiet which was my second priority. Pleased that the ride is quiet.
