Great grip

I've never had a full set of brand new Michelin tires before. They are great. Good grip of the road and v Ty quiet.

Good in snow.

It's too soon to comment on durability however with the recent heavy snow falls in Toronto, the Defender 2 tires were the best performing all season tires we have had to date.

I love the tires. It snowed about 6 inches and didn’t have any trouble at all. The tires are very quiet and the ride is very smooth. I’m getting ready to purchase another set for my other vehicle.

Best tire and long lasting.

The durability of the is everything I expected. Grip going around corners have no slip. Stability at high speeds are great. Traction is great on slippery and snowy roads in Michigan. Long last wear is what I wanted in a tire.

Should be standard on new cars

I have driven my Honda Civic for 10 years. My only complaint was road noise. My new Michelin tires are a godsend. New cars should have premium tires!!

Good ride. Surprisingly my gas mileage went down 2 miles per gallon from the Michelin Privacy tires I had on from the factory. My vehicle is a 2022 Ford Maverick hybrid.

Good tires

I like my new tires, but one of them is leaking, belle tire service can’t find cause, they sealed but few days since then I still notice less PSI than in other 3 tires.

Great Tire

I had 4 Defender XL with 20k miles. Great tire, however I had road hazard on 2. Because I have AWD all 4 needed to be replaced. Since I had the Defender tires before I stayed with the Defenders

Maybe I am missing something

Not sure where the outstanding ride quality reviews come from. Placed these on a Kia Telluride and the ride quality is noticeably rougher. The vehicle always appears to sway back and forth and you feel every bump.
