Verified Purchase

These are the ONLY tires I will trust my family's life too. They are very dependable and the quality is unmatched. It makes our car look stylishly sheek with sacrificing performance.

Replaced original equipment tirres on our Subaru Outback. These tires were recommended by our service people and I think they gave us good information. They seem to ride smoother and quieter than original tires and if the expected treadwear is as we were informed we will be extremely happy with them. I feel that they are a great tire for the price.

Great Tires

These are the 10th set of Michelin Tires I have owned. Most of the sets were for my trucks and were awesome tires. They are more expensive than regular tires but I definitely believe that you get what you pay for. I would rather pay a little more upfront and get more than 80,000 miles than to repeat buying more sets of tires that don't last.

Nothing but Michelins

I have been driving Michelin tires exclusively for more than 40 years with nothing but praise for their quality and performance. So it made this choice of tire purchase pretty simple. We now have several thousand miles on this set of tires and they are performing exactly as expected.

Living Up to Well-earned Reputation

7000 mile history with this set of Michelin Tires - Have been impressed with low road noise something I highly value and have not always experienced in other premium tier lines. Most have been satisfactory when new and I consider these Michelins still new given only 7000 miles on them.

Excellent Tires

Since having our Michelin Defender tires installed we've felt a remarkable difference in handling performance, comfort on all road conditions and overall better drivability.

Amazing longevity! Way past warranty!

I can't recommend these tires enough! We have them on our CRV. They have 95,000 miles on the tire themselves-maybe a bit more. Last time we had them checked @ 93,000 miles they still 4 tread depth! I'm just patiently waiting for the best sale to put new ones on. Don't skip these tires. No hydroplaning in water, great in snow- did good in ice, great on the highway! All have weared equally as well.

New tires but poor Michelin service response

Got new tires. Haven't driven enough to review. Difficult to complete registration process. Dealer did not put Dot numbers on any documents. No tear out wallet card provided with emergency number. Waited oh hold excessively long time to try & contact Michelin. 12+ minutes to answer. I can only imagine having a flat on dark country road & them taking even longer to answer! Wonder what the emergency roadside service time will be. So sounds like terrible warranty I hope I never have to use.

Disappointed

I came here and read reviews and was impressed because I wanted a quiet and smooth ride in my 2024 Nissan Rogue. These are both IMPORTANT issues because my career requires daily travel. I am so DISAPPOINTED. The ride is rough and Road noise is horrible. I'm returning to dealer tomorrow to see what can be done. Ive had them two weeks.
