Peace of Mind!

I bought these tires because of the safety rating and the ability to stop on wet roads. The amazing ride that these tires provide is 100% pure bonus. So my Michelin tires make me feel like I'm in a luxury car but most important they give me Peace of Mind!

Two thumps up!

These new Defender H+T tires are great! I put 12,500 miles on them and it doesn't even look like any tread is worn. These are definitely going to last way longer than the 1st generation Defenders. The noise level is minimal and the handling is reassuring at higher speeds. I do believe that these tires will fill my expectations!

Great Tire on VW Alltrack

I don't understand the reviews stating that this tire is noisy. I am very happy with these tires - they are nice and quiet! If the tire is loud, that most likely is due to improper wheel alignment, or perhaps the tire was installed inside out (there is an inside and an outside face of this tire). VW installed Falken tires on the car from the factory which really were noisy and only lasted 25,000 - 30,000 miles. I went with a slightly wider size so that I could put Michelin tires on.

Could feel the difference from the start

I have been using the Primacy for 14 years or more. I like Michelin tires and have been buying them for 20 plus years. I didn't like that the dealer only offered me the Primacy so I bought the Defender TH online and had them delivered to the dealer. As soon as I pulled out of the parking lot, I could feel the difference. The car felt surefooted and the handling was incredibly smooth and quick. The real test will be this winter and how long they hold up. I usually change my tires every 50,000 miles. I'd like to be able to keep them longer.

Highly recommended!

The Michelin Defender T + H tires are a top-notch choice for drivers seeking reliability, longevity, and performance in all-season tires. With a solid four-star rating, these tires excel in delivering a comfortable and quiet ride, thanks to their advanced tread design and noise-reducing technology. Whether you're cruising on the highway or navigating city streets, the Defender T + H tires provide excellent traction and stability, even in wet or slippery conditions. One of the standout features of these tires is their impressive tread life. Michelin's MaxTouch Construction ensures even wear and extends the lifespan of the tires, providing excellent value for money over the long term. Additionally, the Defender T + H tires are backed by Michelin's reputation for quality and reliability, giving drivers peace of mind on the road. While the Defender T + H tires offer exceptional performance overall, some drivers may find that they lack the sporty handling characteristics of high-performance tires. Additionally, the initial cost of these tires may be higher compared to budget options, but the long-term durability and performance make them a worthwhile investment. In summary, the Michelin Defender T + H tires are a solid choice for drivers prioritizing comfort, longevity, and all-season performance. With their excellent traction, quiet ride, and impressive tread life, these tires are sure to satisfy a wide range of drivers' needs. Highly recommended!

Immediate Gratification

2006 Stock Mustang 215/65/16 BFG's to 235/60/16 Mich Defender T+H KYB Stock strut shocks. Fit great, full travel no rubs. Look and feel superior. Recommended as replacement for stock BFG traction T/A Radials. Quiet Sweet Cadillac ride with grip handling and response. Would recommend as an upgrade.

Awesome Tires for my Prius!

These tires are awesome! The ride is fantastic- smooth and quiet. I read the reviews of many tires and the Defender T&H had the least complaints and most praises. I see one commenter saying their gas mileage dropped with their hybrid. I had the exact opposite happen. My mileage increased by 4 miles per gallon. Maybe the installers under inflated their tires or whatever.

Excellent tires

I purchased my first set of Michelin Defenders for a full size van and I have to say these were the very best tires I've ever bought. After 5 seasons of summer use, there was still a lot of thread left. In my opinion, there is no other tire out there that lasts as long as these. This is an excellent product and I will never buy another brand of tire but Michelin.

Smooth but only get 50k miles

I can't give 5 stars due to early wear. I've had several sets of the Defender 215/60 R16 tires. You get a smooth quiet ride but your only going to get about 50,000 miles before they begin to crack and tread is just about worn down. Handling in the rain will make you nervous and ready for new tread. I drive a 2002 Toyota Camry V6 3.0 engine and 4.9 years and 49.6k miles I need new tires. I am a fairly aggressive driver maybe. I do use the power of a 6 cyl. I am not sure more faithful rotations could get me 40k more miles. I am currently tire shopping and doing lots of research. I hear the pirelli is also a good tire, should I switch or not

Totally met and exceeded my expectations.

I purchase this tire shortly after I bought my used Saturn Vue. I had BF GOODRICH tires that delivered very poor wet traction. I hated doing it and resisted because the BFG's had only about 6000 miles wear on them. I did not expect the amount of difference these new tires made both wet traction and snow/ice. BFG's are a good grade tires but Michelin Defender T/H is exceptional for the money.
