Improvements in comfort, handling, safety and noise reduction

Instantly upgraded the complete driving experience on out Toyota Prius. Both comfort and handling improved while the road noise was reduced! Other reviews say they aren't the lightest of tires, so we did see a 1mpg reduction, but expect many miles of use out of them. We've tested them in rain, light snow and dry conditions and never felt unsafe.

Lots of miles

I've had 3 or 4 sets of these tires or their predecessor. All lasted longer than their 80,000 mile claim. Most of 'em got past 90,000 miles. I'm shopping for another set right now. The set I'm replacing has a little over 120,000 miles. I kept them @ 44 psi. I rotated them once. The outer groove on the front tires has just reached the Nader bumps.

Tires to Phoenix

Feel safe tires

Have been driving with Michelin tires for over thirty years. They have taken us safely through ice and snow on our yearly drive of 1800 miles from Edmonton Alberta to Phoenix Arizona. Now a widow, not driving much but got new Michelin tires last fall and love them.

Great Fuel Efficiency but too rigid and bit noisy

I bought this to replace my Premier as there was no Premier which fit to my Subaru Outback any more. Gas mileage has been improved over 10%. But, it is a bit noisier than Premier and bit too rigid. Premier was much better in terms of ride comfort.

Too firm

I absolutely love the performance and handling of this tire. That being said, it is too firm and does not absorb road bumbs/vibrations very well. This is very close to being the perfect tire, but Michelin really needs to tone down the firmness slightly, and improve the vibration control. I cannot comment on their longetivity as they are still fairly new.

Great MPG, traction and wear

I have 80;780 miles on my current Defender tires. I replaced run flats Goodyear standard on my BMW 528xDrive for those that claim they're loud or didn't get the wear I'm not sure what to say. Very new they were a bit louder than the Goodyear. I check the tire pressure and noticed the installers over inflated each tire by 4 lbs After I set the correct pressure (listed on door jam) the noise lessened. First winter I drove into an ice storm freeway was sheet of ice cars sliding and hitting each other all around me my antilock brakes started aggressively pulsing I saw small opening hit the gas peddle and drove through the wrecked and wrecking cars. I get 3-5 MPG more than the original tires I still have tread after 80,000 miles of aggressive driving. These are the best tires I've ever owned. For all those 1-3 star reviewers correct tire pressure and rotate every 8-10,000 and you will find theses are phenomenal tires. I have installed 3 more sets over the past few years the only noisy installation was my nieces Kia and that was due to high mileage on a weak suspension. She learned to love the tire and after a few thousand miles the noise was much less. On another note I have hit sharp potholes at fast speeds with no loss of pressure there were 7 or more cars that had blown tires from this sharp pothole

Better Ride than a top competitor!

I had Bridgestone tires on my Honda CR-V, they wore quickly, got bumpy and the ride was terrible! I've had the new Michelin Defender T&H tires on now for several months, have rotated twice since installing them and they are still looking like new and show no signs of wear. The ride is smooth!

Safety First

I bought my set of tires in March and the main reason I buy Michelin tires is because I have found that they are the safest tires to drive on front wheel and all wheel drive cars in rain when there is a lot of standing water on highway. Prevents hydroplaning. Have bought several sets of Michelin tires, never had any issues with them.

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!

Terrific Tires

We replaced the Original Equipment Michelin Tires on my 2013 Camry with Michelin Defender T+H BSW Tires. These are providing good traction, a quite ride and comfort. We have equipped our cars with Michelin Tires for many years and have always gotten more than expected.
