Excellent tire

Just had a set of four put on my 2018 Malibu and they feel great going down the road. I was a little hesitant to buy these because of the few reviews about noise. “NOT true”. I was very relieved to find the tires are very quiet. Especially compared to the original stock tires I had on the car. I would bet that the negative reviews about noise is a result of incorrect installation of the tires. Yep. These tires are designed with an inner & outside. Meaning the tires “have to” be installed on the rim with the side wall of the tire that has a print “INSIDE” towards the car. I made sure to remind the mechanic of this and double check before installing the sets onto the car. I also underlined the print INSIDE with white-out marker. Do this and you'll be as happy as I was.

Another great set of Michelin tires

While I've only had these tires for four days, I've had the opportunity to drive on them in a variety of environments - dry, wet, slush, snow, ice, highway and streets - and have been thoroughly impressed with all aspects of this tire. It's quiet, rides smooth, and handles the road well. Excellent wet traction and handled the snow admirably. Obviously I can't speak to the longevity of these tires yet, but given my previous experiences with Michelin tires I fully expect them to hold up well in the long run.

Great Tires

I contacted Michelin prior to making the purchase in ordeer to get the greatest set of tires for my Honda Accord. I got the Defender T+H. They are perfect for my vehicle. They ride smooth and are safe during wet or dry conditions. Will get another set when they ever wear out in the future.

Very nice tires for my hybrid malibu.

I bought these little over a month ago, I drive all highway miles and already have put 10000 miles on them. At first I thought my car felt loose in them but that was because my old tires were so bad. These tires ride very nice, very quite even though my car sits 7 inches off the ground. Wet road handling is great and they are designed to last many many miles ahead. Very happy with my purchase.

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.

Awesome Tire!!

I bought these tires two months ago and have been impressed ever since! I immediately noticed a softer/cushier and more quiet ride with my car. And the handling/traction has been outstanding in both wet and dry conditions. The Defender T + H has very deep and wide groves and can cut through standing water puddles with ease. Seriously, the best tire that I have ever used!

how they handle

I bought these in Sept. 2022 and love the way these handle and a better ride. I am still waiting for my reward card. I have not heard from anyone except to let me know my submission was entered. Can you please contact me and let me know when my reward will be coming.

Excessive tire noise

I've been running Cooper tires for 20 years. I decided to go to my local tire dealer and give Michelin a try. We purchased 4 Michelin Defender T+H tires for our 2011 Chevy Malibu. The road noise is totally unacceptable. When you get over 50 MPH it is nearly impossible to carry on a conversation with all the noise. I cannot speak to the performance in snow, as there's no way we can deal with this noise. They may be a great performing tire; however, the road noise is unacceptable. I think I'm going back to Cooper. We've had the tires for 3 months now and can't deal with this any longer.

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.
