I use these tires for Ice fishing and commuting to and from work on a 2007 dbl cab 4x4 tacoma in the colder months. They look nice have nice white letters on the side, quiet and smooth on the road. These tires come from a manufacturer that makes great tires ie. radial ta's. The bad- From day one they were dangerous in snow. The tread fill up with snow and you have slicks. So if there is any snow on the ground I am in 4 wheel drive. I get stuck in 4 inches of snow on flat asphault without 4wd often. My ABS gets a workout if there is snow. Stopping distances are really really long. Second dry rot is common on these tires in the tread area it doesn't hurt anything but cosmetically I don't like it. I have 35000 miles on them and have 1/8" tread remaining. They have worn evenly with regular rotations and dry traction remains fine. These tires would be fine in a san diego type climate.

Ordered tires when I ordered my Truck in 2004(Dodge 3500 4x4 single rear wheel) have replaced them with 61000 miles on them. Only replaced them because of their age and me running into curbs and wearing the sidewalls down. They just passed inspection and could go for another 10000 miles or more I am sure. I haul heavy load(firewood, logs to mill,mulch) you name it. The are good in snow and mud,thats why I got another set.

I HAVE A 2012 FORD F-150 IT HAD RUGGED TRAIL TA TIRES ON IT THE FIRST SET RAN 95,000 MILES I BOUGHT A SECOND SET THEY RAN 101,000 MILES I HAVE THE THIRED SET ON NOW AND I HAVE 317,000 MILES ON THE PICKUP, SO THESE TIRES HAVE SO THESE HAVE 120,000 MILES ON THEM I WORK IN THE OIL FIELD AND DRIVE ON GRAVEL ROADS EVERYDAY. THESE ARE THE BEST TIRES AND THE BEST TRUCK I HAVE EVER SEEN. THE SIZE IS LT 245/75R17 THANK YOU

This year, it was time to buy new tires for my Honda CR-V 2018. I researched a lot and came to the idea that Michelin Defender 2 is the best choice. I bought them and I could not believe how fantastic they are. Defender 2 is very quiet and comfortable on both highways and roads. In addition to comfort which was my first priority, they are excellent at handling and maintaining vehicle stability, even compare to the factory-installed tires which were not Michelin. I realized why Michelin is the number 1 brand trie in the world. As a friendly reminder, tire is the most important part of a vehicle and they must be the best. Spend your money wisely, buy Michelin, and enjoy your everyday ride. I never go with any other brands. I highly recommend Defender 2. Rest assured you will never regret your purchase.

In 7000 miles on the current Rugged Trails, they have handled well in wet, dry, and mild off-road conditions. In the packed snow on the roads in the mountains, I expected the tires to slip in several situations, but was surprised at the amount of grip they had. Wear is minimal so far with the E rated tires on my 3/4 ton Dodge and I am satisfied with these tires as the original equipment on the truck.

I purchased a set in December of 2014 for my 2011 Ram 1500 4x4. Tires wore pretty evenly. The ride was comfortable and I had minimal road noise with them. They performed well on mostly road/highway miles, in dry conditions and some snow and rain. Some off-road but not much about 70/30. My complaint is the longevity of the tire. I was told my the dealer I would get around 50K out of the tire. I only got around 30K miles. I drive less then 12,000 miles a year and I rotated them regularly and never drove on a low tire. Very disappointed in the long term wear of the tire I didn't buy another set and probably never will. I think BF Goodrich has good tires, just not this one.

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.,

These tires are like driving on clouds - everything is smooth, the tires absorb bumps and road imperfections easily, and I can tell they "have the road". In short, I feel very safe with these tires, which is important since my commute to work is 250 miles twice a month. I originally purchased CrossClimate 2 as replacement tires for my 2020 XT5 Sport but was not satisfied with them (wrote a review). I took the car back to my retailer and they swapped them for a new set of Defender 2 no questions asked. Michelin stands by their product and I've had exceptional customer service from both the retailer and Michelin in this process. The commitment to their product and exemplary service is why I will stay a Michelin customer.

These tires came standard on my 2010 Tundra. When new they rode nice and looked good. They however did not wear well. My truck is well maintained and has had an easy life but you wouldn't guess it by the condition of the tires. 46000 and they are completely worn out!

I have had two sets of BF Goodrich tires on my SUV and they are the only tires I have gotten 100,000 mile on. Before I retired I averaged more that 44,000 miles per year on a set of tires. I have never had a blowout or road hazard problem with these tires. It is the best product for the money.
