Quiet sturdy tires

Great tires. Nice and quiet, I don't hear road noise in the cabin of my Honda Odyssey even on the freeway. Have a nice look and made with solid materials. Would highly recommend.

Performance

I purchased a new set of tires for my wife's Ford Escape. I have always been a Michelin fan and after installation, she commented on how quiet and smooth the ride was now.

New skins

Tires are great! Found them loud at first but a few months in they are good, car handles great. Bought them for my 2019 Impala!! Would definitely buy again!

Tires

Got 4 new defender 2 tires 2 days ago thinking they would be quiter than previous tires. Paid much more than previous tires, but NO NO NO, these tires are not quiter. If anything, these tires are more noisier. Guess I was suckered into paying much more for tires that are not as quite as my previous ones.

Great Tires

Excellent tires! I’ve been using Defenders for years and always replaced them around 30,000 km, well beyond the official warranty. What’s impressive is that the tread still looks barely worn. I highly recommend this brand—they offer outstanding value for the money. I’ve used Defenders for the past 11 years on my van, towing a 4,500 lb travel trailer every summer. Today the van has 563,095 km on it, all with Defenders—because I don’t like dealing with flat tires. Keep up the great work!

Pleased with my purchase

I bought a set of 4 to replace nearly 6 year old tires that were constantly losing air. I've using them for 3 months. At first they seemed overly responsive to the steering wheel, but I have adapted well to this, I think. I also drive an old Nissan pickup and the contrast is marked. The review I read in a national consumer journal was correct.

Better tire life with Michelin, thank you very much

I used to have Hankook tires on my Honda Civic. They only lasted about 30k miles I had two sets, the one from new and the replacements. Both lasted only 30k and I drive very conservatively. I noticed that my wifes Acura has Michelin tires and has not worn them out after 100,000 miles. So that is 3X longer than my Hankook tires. So now I have Michelin Defender 2 tires and I like the stiffer ride they provide.

Durability and Performance

A couple of weeks ago i was stopped, checked a couple of times to see if it was clear to go ready to pull out across traffic when someone came flying out of nowhere. As soon as I saw him I hit the brakes, and he hit his. Luckily I stopped within inches of his car, I can only say how lucky I was to have such great tires on my car along with good brakes. Such a nice smooth ride, love my Defenders.

Exceptional tire!!! Defender 2

These tires have demonstrated exceptional handling capabilities. Road performance is superb, with unmatched wet and dry traction across various terrains. The tires appear to be durable, boasting an 80,000-mile rating. While the price point is slightly higher, the value proposition justifies the investment. This is undoubtedly a superior tire.
