Michelin is a good brand have them on my Murano no problems with them lets see what they hold on the passat, I have always purchased michelin due to they are made with good quality

The Defender 2 is a great all weather tire. Good performance in wet or dry and quiet. The previous ratings that I had reviewed before making my purchase were accurate.

This is my second set of these tires. Was very pleased with the first set. Price was a bit high, but I have always gotten good service out of Michelin tires.

I immediately noticed a better ride quality. We drove the same route and bumps which jarred us before were smooth. I only put Michelin tires on our vehicles and have told family members to do the same.

Put on Michelin defender tires on our 2018 Lexus rx350 ftype and runs like a charm!! Quiet and long lasting with a nice profile!! Totally recommend these tires!!

I like Michelin tires to be honest. They cost a little more but seem to last longer. I have never done a TCO calculation but ai would guess the average cost per year is similar to cheaper tires and they come with better quality and performance.

I have been driving on Michelin tires for many years and my father used Michelin tires for years. I will be purchasing a new set of winter tires in November from Michelin. I find the tires are very reliable and comfort when travelling.

Haven't put a lot of kms on the Defender 2s yet but so far so good. Much quieter and smoother ride than previous tires. Hopefully the durability of the tires is as expected for Michelin tires.

The tires are great the 70 dollar rebate for the purchase of the tires suck never got mine so I would suggest to get the installer to apply for the rebate as you may never get it!

This is the second time I have put these Michelin Defender 2 AS tires on my car. They perform beautifully winter and summer and I am very pleased with the durability of these tires.
