Michelin Defender Tires Great on Ice

Michelin Defender Tires They make great affordable tires, and safety is a must on the mountain in the wintertime. Great performance, smooth riding, quiet tires, very comfortable ride. Installation was a bit pricey,I need 5 new ones on my SUV now. Yes,I recommend these tires.

Beyond awesome mileage.

Bought these tires almost six years ago to put on my Tundra. Purchased a new 2016 Silverado and had the Defenders removed from the Tundra and put on the Silverado with 1,000 miles already on them. Put the new Wranglers on the trade in Tundra. I drive a lot. Fast forward to 2021 and 179,000 miles on the Defenders and still going strong. Awesome ride and quite. Tread gauge now reads 1/4 inch on all tires. Unbelievable! Considering buying new Defenders but tempted to see how far I can go on this set.

91000 miles out of my tires

Put LTX MS tires on my 2001 Ford Excursion Rotated every other oil change and just had to put some others on now and when I started looking at tires the Michlens are so high priced but when I figured out that i got 91000 miles out of them they are cheaper than the others. Hope the LTX MS2 will get as god as the first ones did. Wish they would not have changed to to LTX AT the AT2 are not as good. Love the ride.

Excellent

Best tire brand ever. I've purchased at least 5 sets over the years. It started when I couldn't get the vibration out one of my trucks, my tire guy said try Michelin tires. That solved the issue and I got 90000 miles out of that set. It's the only tire I'll ever buy for safety and peace of mind.

I purchased this set of ...

I purchased this set of Michelin's to replace the original factory tires on my FJ Cruiser which wore out at 25000 miles. I have over 45000 miles on the vehicle now and the Michelin;s still look like new. These tires are great on the highway and perform very well in the ice and snow hear in Colorado.

Will NOT Balance... and keep getting worse!

I have been buying Michelin LTX tires for many years now too include the MS/2 version. Without hesitation the LTX MS/2 were the best tires I have ever seen put on a truck. However with the advent of their new Defender series, I can honestly say they are the worst LTX tires they have ever made, they just will not balance out, the more I drive them the more they shake and shimmy. Last pair of LTX MS/2 had 115,000 miles on them, my 2002 Z71 Tahoe... LT285/70/17. The old tires had a better ride than the new tires do, (Defenders)... Shame, time to find another tire and manufacturer, never thought I would be saying that about the LTX Dave

1.5 years in and now the loudest set of tires

I owned Defenders previously, until 2018 when I replaced them with these current (2011 Highlander SUV). And now at speeds over 40 mph the oscillating sound is so loud and driving me nuts. I read a review when I bought these suggesting they are loud and now I believe it. Don't buy these -I don't know why Michelin can't design a quieter tire for SUVs. They have always been my go-to brand for my sedans.

Excellent on road ...

Excellent on road manners...my 92 Jeep xj feels new again! Yes a bit more expensive up front, but wear pays for the extra expense...they wear like iron...I have Michelins on my work truck as well. My wife's Passat is also ready for some new rubber...she got 65k out of the last pair of Micheline MXV4 Pilots and I can probably wait till spring, but with winter coming, I am going to replace them...with Michelines of course!

Great Tires

This set of tires replaced a set of private labeled tires that were on my Ford Ranger. These tires handle much better and real quiet when cruising on the highway. Michelin tires have been on many of my vehicles over the years because they are great tires and you get your moneys worth from they.
