My 2008 Ford F250 Super Duty 4x4 came with tires. I love them. No road noise, consistant wear across front and rear. I have 77,000 miles on them and could do about another 3k but the treads getting to the point where off road theres little grip and I need a front end alighment. I do about half my driving as towing and most as highway or rural roads, very little city. No problem tires.

Best set of tires I have ever had. I have 100,000 on the tires and they have many more miles left on them. I have a 2500 Dodge Ramp Quad Cab that spends most of its time towing a 3 horse slant gooseneck trailer to barrel races, horse shows and back country trail rides. This truck is also the family vehicle so it gets all kinds of use other than hwy miles. I have never in my life had a set of tires come anywhere close to lasting this long. This is the only tire I will buy to replace these and I'm sharing my story with all my friends and family.

I bought my 2011 Dodge Ram 2500 Heavy Duty Mega Cab Turbo Diesel truck in November 2012. I like the tires but they seem to be weathering a lot on the sidewalls. They still have plenty of tread left but I am not sure they will last anouther 10,000 miles. I have put about 25000 miles on them (highway mostly). I am taking anouther trip to Arizona next month. The tire is a great tire but I just wonder if this was a bad batch... I am probably going to have to get a new set before my trip.

These tires came stock on my 2015 Toyota Tacoma. I had read poor reviews about these prior to purchase of the vehicle, but wanted to approach the reviews with a healthy level of skepticism. What I can tell you: I drive a lot, for both work and personal activities. Which means I put 30,000 miles on this vehicle in 11 months. I also live and work in a place where snow, ice and hardpack are around for 5 months of the year. I have never had to purchase specific winter tires for a vehicle. I purchased the truck new with these tires, kept them properly inflated and rotated every 5000 miles. Pros: The tires are light, quiet and fuel efficient for dry bare pavement and light rain. They did not disappoint for summer driving and light off road use 1-2 times per month on rocky or rutted gravel and sand roads with no change in tire pressure. The tires definitely wear well, as a result of the harder compound. Cons: These tires performed fine on hardpack snow in 4wd for the first 5,000- 10,000 miles worth of use. Shortly after I purchased the vehicle it was driven from Michigan to Montana in Mid November. Overall the tires performed reasonably well in mountain passes with fresh snow over ice and hardpack. However, after about 10,000 miles of use the tires did not hook up as well, in snow when cornering at low speeds, and stopping despite different driving styles (mine and my wife's) was downright unpredictable. Shortly therafter, I was unable make it up our short snow covered driveway without the use of 4wd, (in my previous vehicle wrangler rubicon unlimited with hankook and other BFG All terrain tires 4wd was not necessary.) I would not recommend these tires for anyone looking for an all terrain or all season tire for areas that receive significant amounts of snow. The hard compound does not hook up well in winter conditions.

Bought them like a months ago not sure what to make of them not an expert on rubber, travel with them across the nation road condition not that good pot holes and falling trees uneven road. Driving 12:39 am Middle of the desert rear back left tire a screw about 3/16 size got into it dash light of low air light up, luckily a service station with in a mile patch the tire and keep on driving. Not sure how much is the damage on the front tires with all the pot holes got into it. We do not need a team of experts to judge the tires. No concerns about the performance of the tires it’s great but what kills the tires is the composition what is made off more resistance to all the crazy elements on the road . I don’t care if you have to put particles of airplanes tires just do it make long lasting tire, Now I have to go the front counter of the retailer , which I hate this process. Theirs no time for star rating. No problem , I would talk to your research team and engineering and the president of tired company. Hope no other family goes to the same vacation trip, what profanity ?

Have had these tires on my truck for the last 7 years / 90,000 miles (give or take) in all season northern Nevada weather and I am just now replacing them due to two tires being slashed. You can bet I am keeping one of the remaining two as a spare, thoough. These tires are more than worth it.

This tire came on my 2012 F-350 4x4 dually. I've towed my 20K lb camper more than 13K miles and driven unloaded more than 20k miles. The tires handle excellent on wet, dry, snow and dirt. I have not been on ice or mud. They dig in sand. I am very pleased with the tires, but I am currently searching for a new set as they are completely worn out. Tires are worn pretty evenly and have had normal rotations.

I put the Rugged Trail tires on my Toyota Sequoia replacing the tires that came with the vehicle. Since then I have experienced a smoother ride, better handling, better traction off-road, better steering and braking on the street, and better fuel efficiency!

I just put these in my 2011 f-150 supercrew after inwas told inwas getting the Rugged Terrain. I went with the rugged trail because its the size they had and my oem wrangler SR As were wore out. Its the families primary vehicle and by these reviews I am scared to death to drive in anything other than sunshine. I mean i read reviews on the GY Wrangler SRAs were not good for snow and ice but they never gave me trouble. But these reviews are down right scary with my 14, 6 and 1 month old. They seem to handle fine on dry pavement, but very stressed now about when the weather comes. I just wish people would say more about their trouble in bad weather like are they hydroplaning bc they are doing 80mph down the highway in the pouring rain or is it 10 degrees outside when the snow is packing in the tread. Ugh. Im not sure if i regret my purchase but defintely dont feel like finding out the hard way!!!

I bought a set of four of the Defender 2 model earlier this month expecting them to be an improved version of my previous Michelin Defender tires. What I didn’t know until I got home and had a chance to look them over more closely was that the traction rating is “B,” unlike the previous model of tires which were rated “A” for traction. What a disappointment! Why would you have this mediocre traction design to the Defender 2, Michelin? My only other Michelin option for the size I need was the snow tire model, but I wanted year round, all season tires and that left the Defender 2 as the remaining choice. While it’s great to buy tires made in the USA, this traction B rating seems rather bush league coming from such a renowned manufacturer.
