Very noisy

Always had luck with Michelin tires until I purchased 4 defender tires for my ram pickup. The loud whine is unbearable on blacktop roads. A little quieter on concrete but still loud. Unfortunately I waited longer than 30 days to return them.. seriously considering buying new tires even though only 2500 miles on these

"WHAT CHALLANGE, BRING IT ON!"

Simply put, the ride is exceptional, great performance, tracking, steering road conditions, tire treadlife. Only downfall is the white outline tires. The way your bonding process is? ( i WAS TOLD THIS BY YOUR REPRESENTATIVE(S) SEE ANY HISTORY, warranty adjustments/ claims...). Had sidewall cracking. Not sure if this could pose a danger, did not want to take that chance. Hoping you would solve this issue, I PURCHASED ONE OF YOUR SIDELINES B.F. GOODRICH, hoping by the time I had to replace them and come back to these tires, this problem would be solved. Currently watching this...

Smoother and more stable.

These make my 2004 explorer more stable, quieter, and overall a much smoother ride. It literally changed the way the entire ride feels. It's not as splashy (sways less also) and definitely feels much more solid, but not firm or harsh. Wet weather is no problem and it handles snow well also. Would have bought M/S 2's but they were not available in size I needed fort limited edition explorer.

I purchased these tires, ...

I purchased these tires, because of their long tire life, being quiet while driving on the freeway, and the brand name standing behind them. As for the tire life, I have driven, on the freeway mostly, 55K miles and still have tread left (not hitting the wear marks yet). Traveling daily on the freeway, tire noise becomes an issue with me. I enjoy listening to some good tunes on the radio and not having to listen to my tires howling. These tires don't make tire noise, so they won't interupt the music at all. Finally, Michelin tires stand behind their tires. I've owned many trucks and sport cars in my life without having any issues with the tires that I have purchased. Michelin tires have given me peace of mind even with my family in my car or truck. Yes, these tires are that good!!!

Great tires on my Silverado.

This is my second set of tires on my 2000 Silverado 1500. Truk has 185K miles. Driving around the city or on the highway very comfortable. reat traction and gas mileage has been outstanding. 20 mpg on the highway! Would definitely buy these again. Great in the rain and wet locations and in the snow with 4x4. I get very good mileage fro these tires easy 70K miles. Have not done too much off road with these so I can't comment.

Very Noisy and rough ride

I bought these tires less than a year ago, I have put about 4,000 miles on them and I really dislike them. There is no smooth ride and they are so noisy it's frustrating. I was told by the tire shop to give them some time since they are new but there has been zero change. I don't even like driving my vehicle anymore because of the tires. I really wish I could say otherwise but unfortunately aside from the warranty I would never recommend these to anyone.

Michelin Comes Through Again

Tires are very quiet, wear like iron, and have awesome grip. I see all weather conditions in Illinois and every vehicle I own now has Michelin tires on it. I've had a few other brands over the years, but I'm convinced Michelin makes the best. They are definitely worth the extra money!

My first experience was ...

My first experience was on my new 1997 mini truck. I finally replaced them at 125k miles. They performed very well in all conditions including snow and ice. Cornering and handling was enhanced by these tires. I made up my mind at that time that all my vehicles would have Michelin tires. All my vehicles including three quarter ton and half ton trucks and 9 passenger vehicle. My new mini SUV also has factory issue michelin.

Best Tire for SUVs and Light Trucks

I had a set of the Michelin Defender M/S tires on my 2004 Toyota Sequoia that I loved. I bought them on June 15, 2017. They ride very smoothly for an LT tire. Because they roll forever, as you approach a stop, you have to get your foot off the gas much earlier. I don't know how many miles I put on them but it was a lot! I like these tires so much that I bought new sets for my SUV and also my pickup.

EXCELLENT TIRES!

These tires have given me years of great service. I have had them on my Ford Ranger, Ford F150, and Ford Excursion. They are not by any means the cheapest tires for these vehicles, but they offer great ride quality, low noise, and I have never had one with any type of defect throughout the life of the tire.
