Great Noiseless Tires

I researched tires for my 2013 Mazda3 and came to the many good reviews for the Defender 2. After driving around town, I can feel the difference between my OEM tires and the Defender 2. Definitely a lot less noise!

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!

Defender 2 is a great tire.

I bought this tire a year ago. I'm so glad I did. Very long lasting, handles well, is really quiet on smooth roads. No problems. Perfect for my ev car.

Tundra and BFG not good combo

These tires are great looking and provide a very comfortable ride on my 2010 tundra double cab 4x2. These were the factory tire for the sR5 TRD Off Road Wear very even but very quickly. I rotate every 5k and maintain pressur eto specs. They look great on the truck and handled very well. We had an ice storm two winters ago and i have to say, my 2wd did as great as can be expected )I am orginally from the north and have seen some pretty mean winter driving conditions. MY biggest gripe is that these tire wore pretty quickly I have 25k on them and need to replace them. Most of my driving is city/local so a lot of turning and the soft rubber just gets worn quickly. Great on the highway. The other shortfall, is the traction is a little weak in the woods--nothing muddy or rough--just really on some falt woodsy terrain...major slippiage and no suport for the traction control...I'm picky, but the wear was really disappointing for the price point. I probably wont buy these again.. Hope this is helpful

Great tread life on a dually

I'm on my second set of these for my 2017 F350 DRW. These replaced the factory tires that were underwhelming to say the least. The steers lasted about 70k miles, and the drives gave nearly 85k miles. The truck spends 90%+ of its life with a 20k lb. gooseneck trailer hooked to the back of it, much of that off paved roads, and some of the off road is severe. I have about 30k on the second set of steers and about 15k on the drives, and they're wearing great.

Impressive performance in snow and ice conditions

I purchased a used full-size SUV with these already installed and in fairly new condition. They got me through a brutal 2018/2019 Winter season (227.1" total as of May 1,2019). I recently have been on the "All-Weather is better than All-Season" bandwagon (Nokian WR-G3, Rotiiva AT) but these BFG Rugged Trail's worked just as good. I can't speak for the other BFG products but I will buy these Rugged Trail's again.

Great Tire, Last long

These tires came stock with my 2013 Tacoma TRD Off-Road 4x4. I had the A/T's before on a previous truck and orginally wanted the A/T's on my new truck. I decided becasue I drive more than the typical person for work and adventures that I'll hold out until I need a new set of tires for my Truck. I give these tires a solid 9 out of 10. Currently as I'm looking for a new set of tires I have 66,000 miles on them. I rotate the tires every 5000-6000 miles when I change the oil and I do my best to take care of them. The tires performed amaizingly in the snow, I never has a issue during storms and unplowed roads. They were just as good as my A/T tires with my past truck from what I can remember. They also were great on wet roads, and dirt roads while driving to camps in remote places. I never had a grip issue. The only problem I have with the tires is a problem I believe you'll get with every tire while they are on their last leg. There is a small vibration (still drives stright) on the highway, I was told this is just becasue I've pretty much used all the wear on them in my 66,000 miles. Seems I got every bit out of them that I could. That being said it's time for a new set, I do believe I'm going to upgrade to the All Terrians that I had before like I said, but if the price is right this tire is a sure thing and I wanted to share my experience with these tires. Also this is my 3rd set of BF Goodrich tires I've had and about to buy my 4th. I have zero complains about the company and their products. They always have given me a great tire that last!

Great Tires

I only use Michelin Tires on both of my vehicles, and have for many years, Michelin Defenders in the summer & Michelin X-Ice in the winter. I have always received great service, traction & ride, and highly recommend Michelin Tires to my Family & anyone who has asked.,

Long trouble-free life

The best thing to say about Michelin tires is--there is nothing to say. No problems, no tracking issues. Last a long time on my Cavalier, Pontiac G5, and Cruze. I have been buying them since a set lasted 115,000 miles on a Rambler American, but have never achieved that lifespan since. However, they outlast Goodyears, Firestones and Pirellis on my other cars.

90,000 Miles

I've just (9/23/13) replaced 4 BF Goodrich Rugged Trail T/A tires on my 4X4 pick up truck. I knew it had been a while since I'd put them on so I checked my records and found that I'd purchased those tires on 9/15/06 at 94,600 miles. When I replaced those tires, my odometer read 185,400. Now I'm no mathematician, but I add that up to 90,800, a remarkable number of miles for one set of tires. 7 years and 90,000 miles (I know I could have easily made it 100,000), you can bet your house that I replaced those 4 tires with 4 more Rugged Trail T/A's!
