Use this tire for everyday city/interstate driving also backroads travel, through various different types of terrain. Experienced a smooth ride, traction over the various terrains, and extremely good tread wear. Road noise on paved roads, dependent on surface material is annoying at times overall good.

I replaced these same tires on my 2012 Toyota Highlander; this time, they are so loud that you cannot hear the radio. What is the difference from when I bought these tires 3 1/2 years ago? I figured it was just me but now my wife and son-in-law have driven the car and everyone has the same complaint It was too loud. You notice it at about 35 MPH and up. I have these same tires on my 2015 Tacoma Truck and don't have this noise at all. Is there a chance these are mounted wrong?

I will only buy Michelin Tires. They are so reliable and Michelin tires beat the prices of many other competitors in their class. I do a lot of highway driving and I can honestly say, I have gone a lot farther than the recommended 50,000 miles and my ride is always smooth in my SUV. I do my rotations and get them checked regularly. Thank you for such an awesome product that I feel safe riding my family around on our many trips and day to day activities.

I didn't have time to have tires installed although I knew I wanted Michelins, so I asked my wife to take the car to get the tires replaced. When she walked in she said the car is different, you better drive it. When I drove it, I thought, how could a set of tire make such a big improvement in a car's driving & handling - it was the Michelins smooth ride.

Had a set of these put on my 4WD Honda Element in September. I liked immediately. The ride is good, they're pretty quiet, but since winter hit, I realized these are the best tires I've ever had. The grip in deep snow is excellent, they stop well in snow/ice/slush and I have to be sure not to get overconfident. Wear in the first 3,000 miles has been negligible. I'm really happy with these tires. They even look like they mean business.

I only buy Michelin tires as they are proven to be the best, I have been a faithful Michelin tire owner for many years, and however, my latest Michelin purchase I am not happy with. My MPG has dipped 3 to 4 miles per gallon since I put these tires on. These were the most expensive tires they had at the store and I was told the best Michelin tires they had, so I was quick to purchase thinking I couldn’t go wrong. Well, that's is not the case. While the tires give a smooth, quiet ride, the reduction in gas millage leaves me more than disappointed. The original brand tires the vehicle came with gave me much better millage and those were worn out

These replaced OE Goodyear RS-A’s. One of the Goodyear’s suffered a belt separation and complete failure while towing. The Defender’s have a more comfortable ride and better traction, particularly in the rain. This Michelin was a significant upgrade.

Got these tires as a replacement for the Michelin ones that were on my car when I purchased it new. The main reason for purchasing them was because of the lack of problems I had with the original set. I had 90,000 miles on the original set when replaced and am confident I can go another 90,000 miles on this new set.

I bought these tires and regulary aired and rotated them per the manufactures recomendations. The tires exceeded the waranty by 14,000 miles. I will never by another tire. The tires are quite on the roads and highways and grip well in all weather. I am now on my second set and they are performing well. I own a 3/4 ton pickup and regularly tow and haul heavy loads. Michelin knows tires and they have a customer for life. Keep up the good work Michelin.

These tires are the very best quality and ride they provide is excellent. Through the first 45 years of my life I've bought just about every kind of tire either for me or my children. But as I got older and wiser I found this tire and have been using them for the past 15 years on three different vehicles, 2 jeeps and a F150. They give you a lot of miles and are excellent in any type of weather. Five thumbs up from me.....
