While my MPG did drop about 2 miles per gallon from my "other" former tires, handling especially in the rain big (huge) improvement..... Now, plus side a little more quite than brand x.... so Safety and quietness always wins in my book....

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.

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 love these tires! I notice a big difference in handling going around curves. The tires are silent and comfortable, which I consider important since I'm a Uber driver.

The Michelin Defender 2 tires are wonderful, as well as dependable tires for a passenger car. The confidence of having the needed traction in all types of weather is an important factor.

Best brand that I could locate.

Safety of good rubber hitting the road

Very good longevity and grip

Its a very smooth ride with these two rear tires

super quiet, very responsive in handling, tracks true to the road with minimal driver input.
