This is my second set of Michelin defenders. I got approx. 65000 miles on first set easily. I liked them so much I replaced them with another. Great in snow or wet conditions. Low road noise. Keep rotating these tires every oil change and you’ll never have any problems with wearing.

On my Sierra 1500, I managed to get 105,000 miles out of my first set. On the second set, I achieved 85,000 on the set, but only replaced the two rear tires. The front two appeared to have 50% tread left. I drove the back two over inflated for too long after hauling a heavy load and inflating the tires to compensate. Great Tires.

I am approaching 110,000 miles on my Michelin tires and they look like they will hang in there for another 20,000 miles or so. These are my first set of Michelins. I have been driving for over 40 years and have never had tires like this that last this long and perform this well. These tires have been a great blessing!

Replaced factory 4Runner tires with these and love them. Smooth, quiet, with good traction. My only complaint is there is not a 275/70/17 option which would allow a clean fit without having to modify the 4Runner at all, which is necessary with the 285s. If you made a 275/70/17 it would definitely be my next set after these.

The tires have worn well. I have 49,000 miles on them and have about 10,000 miles left. The only thing I have noted is some chunking of tread on gravel roads. I have pieces of tread missing from several of the tires. I am usually towing my trailer/Jeep on gravel roads. It appears the rear tires cannot handle the weight on gravel without having chunks of tread come off.

OK, I had michelins on my honda accord years ago and remembered how good they were and how long they lasted (had 110K miles on them when I sold it). So when my 2003 Escape needed replacements for the tires that came on it at 60K miles, I went with the Michelins. Now six years and over 170K miles later I am ready for a new set (or maybe a new vehicle, since the odometer is near 240K). I am very pleased with Michelins. They last forever! The guy at the tire store said I could probably get 5-10K more out of them since I actually still have good tread but am seeing some dry rot - they are getting old. Great tires Michelin!

Michelin in my opion are THE BEST TIRE on the market. Have had them on all my vehicles. Replaced the set on my GMC Pick/up (daily driver) after 75,000 + miles with a new set of Michelins, and put the old set on the farm Pick/up last year. Also have them on the Wife's Yukon and they have 60,000 + miles on them and still have plenty of tread left. You won't get that kind of ware out any of your competitors!

The original tire was P255/55R18 104H. Had shifted to 255/R18 109V Extra Load. The difference is quite significant. The fuel efficiency has improved, but the greatest effect is noticed on dramatic improvement on the ride comfort. It felt like the suspension has been enhanced by the smoothness on the ride.

I got over 70,000 miles on my M/S truck tires and a lot of that was pulling a 3,000 lb utility trailer. The tire has an excellent ride and provided great traction in heavy rain or off road. I have replaced them with the newer M/S2 and expect them to last just as long.

I put these onto my 2004 Tacoma when I first purchased it new and after 6 years & 95,000 miles, I've decided to replace them with another set.. I've driven on them 60 miles roundtrip to work everyday - in snow and blistering heat. All I've ever done is rotated and balanced... I couldn't be any happier!
