Very Impressed by quiet drive, smoother control

My second hand Toyota Rav4 was roaring like muscle car and road noise was deafening. We finally put this tire set last week. Rav4 sounds like a car drive. Cannot believe it myself. Steering is lot smoother. Hopefully tires remain same throughout.

My second set!

Just bought my second set! I sold my last car that had Defenders with lots of mileage on them, but they looked like they only half worn! After my first set, I knew I would be buying them again for my current car. Michelin's are a little more money than some, but you get that money investment back since they last a long time! With the high mileage I do, these are a testament to how well they do. They handle nice and are quiet.

Quiet and smooth

I bought these yesterday in Salt Lake and they are great. On the way back home they much quieter than the Douglas extra tracks that I replaced. They also rolled much smoother, there was a little bit of vibration but I think it was from over inflation when they mounted them. I lowered the pressure from 42 psi., to 35 psi and took my truck for a drive and the vibration is gone . These are great tires and I would buy them again if still available, but Michelin does not show this size anymore in the Defender T+H, the other deciding factor is if my truck is still operable as it is 34 year's old.

Good tires but extremely noisy!!!

I bought these for my 2010 Honda Odyssey minivan and absolutely hate them!!! Got them around Thanksgiving and noticed that they were very loud and my MPG was not as high as with my previous tires. I tried to have them exchanged at the place I purchased them, but they would not honor the guarantee. Now that it is summer, and it's much hotter, the tires are even louder! If I had a disposable income I would change these out, but given the price of the tires, that is not possible. While the tread is great for all conditions, please note that you will hear an increase in road noise.

Great Fuel Efficiency but too rigid and bit noisy

I bought this to replace my Premier as there was no Premier which fit to my Subaru Outback any more. Gas mileage has been improved over 10%. But, it is a bit noisier than Premier and bit too rigid. Premier was much better in terms of ride comfort.

amazing tire

got these for my Camry and it totally transformed the car made the cabin a whole lot quieter. consumer reports thinks highly of these tires so right there is the reason to get them. Michelin is a good tire i had energy saver a s tires there good but not as quiet and dont have the 80-90 thousand mile tread life.

Disappointed with predecessor Defender tread life

Bought Defenders in October 2014 for a 2009 Toyota Camry. I was impressed with reviews, and tread life advertised at 90,000. Figured a tire might not make its full tread life, but even in normal city/highway driving conditions, two of the tires are now at 2/32" after only 35,000 miles and 4 years, and should be replaced. One is at 3, and one is at four. I rotate every 5000; definitely have done one or two alignments since the initial installation alignment. Other than the tread life, the tire rode well and was quiet. I've seen other poor reviews of the Defenders due to tread life. Since then, Michelin has revised the line, so perhaps the tread life has improved.

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.

Great performance on Ford Escape

I have used these same tires on my 2009 Ford Escape and with regular rotation I got 89,000 + mile on the before I traded the ar. I have installed the new version T+H on my 2014 Escape and am looking forward to not ever having to change them! Great all weather performance on dry, wet and snowy roads. Quite quiet for a trie with a deeper then normal tread.
