Terrible

I bought these tires 4 years ago and experienced a blowout on the sidewall of this tire. Only 30K miles applied to the set of tires. As a life long customer, I've learned Michelin's shinning reputation is no longer what they used to be.

john512, sorry to read that you had a tire problem. A member of our team will be in touch to work with you and your local dealer. The first step is to get an inspection of the tire in question.

Great Tires!

Just had these put on my 2017 Honda Accord and they are much better than the Yokohamas that came off. These are smooth, safe and they are great in the rain. Driving in the snow this weekend I'm sure they will do great.

Less noise, more traction.

Just bought these and could immediately tell the difference in decreased road noise and increased traction/handling. I had the first version just placed on the rear wheels which I can't complain about but I think these new ones are better.

Just put 4 Defender 2’s on my Infinity QX60 (55k miles) and took a 100 mile trip and the ride was perfect. Very quiet, handled great. Highly recommend these new shoes!

No buyer's remorse

Purchased three weeks ago. They ride Smooth and quietly. Gas mileage is the same. Did not worsen. Wet braking, dry braking both good but good brakes and driving at reasonable speeds in a rain storm has more to with braking than new tires.

SMOOTH AND QUIET RIDE

Considered other options for replacement on our Buick Enclave. It had Michelin on it and 110% happy, so far, we went back with Michelin. Yes, other options were less expensive, but we didn't want to road noise etc. issues.

Best tire for overall comfort and stability

Without a doubt in my mind, the best overall tire for performance, noise levels, ability to hold the road at any speed in any kind of weather, comfort and handling.....cost is excellent for such an amazingly quiet and comfortable ride.

Love them so far

I noticed an immediate improvement in the comfort of the ride. I drive on a concrete highway that tends to create a lot of tire noise. It has quieted dramatically since I have had these tires.

Awesome quiet ride. Excellent handling.

This is the third set of these tires I have purchased. Two sets on my previous Outback and this set for my most recent Outback. Extremely satisfied with the quiet ride and wet/dry performance. Highly recommend!

Excellent Tires

So far so good. Original tires on my vehicle were Continentals and very noisy. These tires, Michelin Defender2s, are outstanding. Very quiet and fuel economy very good.
