EXCELLENT SET OF TYRES

Bought 4 sets of tires and the moment I drove out of the dealership after install, I immediately felt the difference from my old tires. It's quiet and traction is excellent on curves. no wiggles when tried at 140 km/hr, smooth ride and did not felt that I was cruising at this speed. This brand is excellent and highly recommended. You get the satisfaction what you pay for.

Michelin Defender T + H
5 out of 5 stars review

Great value for your money

I bought my Michelin Defender T + H in April 2023. Not only did I get a 70 $ rebate, I enjoyed a great ride with my new tires. They takes the corners well and they are not noisy like most tires are. Definitely a good value for my money. I will continue to buy Michelin from my mechanic's shop.

Extremely Disappointed

I purchased Michelin T + H Tires 3-1/2 years ago with a 6-year, 80,000 mile warranty. with just over 30,000 miles. Tires no longer grip on damp roads spinning on acceleration from a dead stop. Dealer tells me I can replace with a prorated offer. I typically get 6 years with 60,000+ miles with a cheaper brand tire driving in harsh weather conditions.

MareBear, the limited mileage warranty should allow you credit toward a set of replacement tires. The amount of credit is based on the mileage received. Sounds like your retailer is handling this based on the warranty.

Awful tires and experience

I bought Michelin Defenders as my latest "summer" tires and they wore out after about 18 months of normal use less than 1/5th of the way through their 145K warranty and have been worse than any previous ones I've had. Going through the warranty process for these expensive tires is also a frustrating struggle so I'm very disappointed.

I am totally happy with my Michelin tires!

Bought my Michelin’s approximately a year ago, have been down to Arizona & back, so they have been through various weather conditions (snow & heat) but no problems! Thankyou Integra Tireshop in Stony Plain for recommending them, you continue to make me a happy customer!

Kept Me on the Road

I use Michelin's on my SUV that I pull a vendor trailer with and they never let me down in over 8 years. So, when it was time for my family car to get new tires I got Defenders. These were highly rated and my Tire and Repair shop recommended them so I know I have the best I can get and feel safe on the road.

Loudest Michelin tire

After many years and many miles, took off a set of Michelin Primacy tires and replaced them with Michelin Defender T + H tires on my wife's 2008 Toyota Avalon Limited. These Defender T+H are are loudest Michelin tires I ever hand a car. They were load enough that I though it may have been a wheel bearing, but the Toyota dealer said it was the tires. Previous tires were quiet Michelin HydroEdge on a Nissan Maxima and Michelin Premier on a Buick Lucerne. I should have bought Michelin Premier which were smoothest quietest tires ever. But bought the Defender T+H because of the extreme long tread life.

Gripping Quiet Tire

Bought four Defender T+H tires for our 2006 Honda Odyssey LX which we drive in the Midwest. The tires have very good grip in normal, dry, paved-road conditions and are very quiet. The ride has been silky smooth at all speeds. We haven't had a chance to drive with the tires in rain or snow yet. We are very happy with their performance and would purchase them again, or for another vehicle. We first found out about the Defender Tire from Consumer Reports magazine's reviews. Michelin made them affordable with their 70 dollar rebate which you can fill out online. When comparison shopping, always ask for the "out-the-door price".

What happened to what used to be great tires?

I bought these in February 2023, replacing a set of Premiere A/S,. I get there will be some handling and ride adjustment . The A/S was fabulous until they got down to 3mls. Even though they only lasted 42000 mile, I would have bought another set, I thought they were that good. The Defenders are like driving offroad tires. Every inperfection on the road surface is felt. I have had vibration thru the steering wheel and rough ride feel throughout the cabin. At just under 3000mi, I had my mechanic go over the tires and the entire front end. He rotated and rebalanced all four tires since there was nothing else he could find. This caused a reduction in the vibration but the ride is incredibly hard. I could have saved a $100/tire and just bought a private brand label for this ride. Clearly I do not recommend these tires

Didn't go the distance

When i bought these they carried a 90,000 mile claim. They have since lowered that to 80,000. I would have been happy to have gotten 50,000. Won't happen. With winter coming I will need to replace these at about 40,000. They do ride well and wear evenly but the mileage claim is very unrealistic.
