4 months and 3000 kms after, all I can say is ....great choice! They are solid in heavy rain plus I noticed that my Economy improved a lot. Those tires are made with performance and longevity in mind. Well worth it is the bottom line.

I purchased a set of these tires a month ago. They do not ride smooth and they are noisy. They sound like I am driving a pick up truck with off road tires.

Exceeded expectations. 2017 Defenders lasted 138,000 miles (7 years). They still had tread wear left, but we're getting noisy, weather checked and would not hold balancing. Replaced with Defender 2.

I put a very used set of these on a 1992 suburban, without the 4 wd hooked up. They were almost gone, and I never slipped. I'm in Michigan, on some Michelins.

I bought in April. They are advertised as quiet but we’re as loud as my winter tires. I suffered all summer thinking they may get better but did not. I will rate them in next spring and hope Michelin will help.

I have previously used Defender tires on a light truck. Now, I have purchased Defender2 for my Toyota Avalon. Very Quiet Smooth ride! Feels like I am driving a new vehicle.

Great handling, part of my travel is on gravel road (under construction), I was able to move along beautifully, with smooth, even ride, hardly and noise.

I noticed an immediate improvement in the comfort of the ride. I drive on a concrete highway that tends to create a lot of tire noise. It has quieted dramatically since I have had these tires.

Bought these to replace different vendor. The Michelins are great, as usual. Much quieter than prior vendor's, excellent road feel and secure handling.

I HAVE HAD THIS TIRE BEFORE ON OTHER VEHICLES. IT HAS PERFORMED VERY WELL AND WAS WITHIN MY PRICE RANGE. RIDEIS GOOD AND THERE IS NO EXTRA ROAD NOISE.
