I have had this model ...

I have had this model tire on every vehicle I have owned. I am on my 5th vehicle and the 4th van / truck. The first and second vehicle was a small passenger car and a small van. These tires last and I not only fully trust them but I get my money's worth.

Very Noisy and Rough Riding

I have had 3 sets of Defenders on my 2006 4Runner and I they were great tires for 210,000 miles. I decided to buy a set for my 2018 Grand Cherokee. I made a expensive mistake. They are very loud and very rough riding. They have changed the whole demeaner of my SUV. I have only had them for a week and about 500 miles but I have talked to the dealer about changing tires. He suggested Latitude Touring which was the OEM tire on my Jeep. I only got 29,000 miles out of those. I really need to find a solution. Can I change out for the Premier series? Thanks

I bought these tires for ...

I bought these tires for my Ford Edge base on recommendations from friends. So far I have been very happy with their performance. They ride great and are quiet. They have also performed well in the snow here in Michigan. We are so happy with the tires, we are looking at getting them for our Ford F150.

I am on my second set of ...

I am on my second set of these tires on my 2004 Chevrolet crew cab pickup. I had 56,000 miles on the first set with still a lot of tread. Replaced them so I would have new tires for the 2010 hunting season when I get off road. This is the best tire I have ever used for a pickup, and I am 78 years old. They are quite on the pavement and adequate for off road use.

Went with the best

Had a set of 4 on my Honda Pilot when I bought it new. Used it a lot in the mountains during ski season and provided excellent traction and tread wear. It was a no brainer to get them again. Cost was a bit higher than other brands but piece of mind is priceless when it comes to the "rubber hitting the road".

Splits in sidewall

For the second time one of my tires has split on the sidewall. The last time Michelin said my husband must have run over something. Now the second tire has also split on the sidewall. Don't know how these got all of these good reviews. We will never buy another Michelin since they seem to be junk!

Always used Michelin, the I went cheap once.

I've always used Michelin, then Ctls were on sale and I chose them. 3 Flat tires in 6 months. Been working at same place same drive path for 25 years. Had the new tires taken off and new Michelins put on. They even road quieter. I won't do it again. Flat tires are a pain to deal with especially when it's freezing out.

Tire Quality

I have been buying Michelin tires for 40 years now. Overall I have been quite satisfied with the wear patterns, reliability and service life of the tires. I have had Michelin tires on light trucks, vans, SUV's, sedans, sports cars and mid-range trucks. The Defender LTX M/S for my 2015 RAM 2500 4x4 Turbo diesel 3/4 ton truck only lasted 20 months and less than 30,000 miles. They were religiously rotated every 5,000 miles, not used for heavy loads or towing, little mountain road driving and no off road use. They all four (4) wore evenly but did not reach any where near the 50,000 service life expectancy.

Finally!!!

After so much research and going back and forth between different brands and different tires I always found myself coming back to this model Defender tire. Besides having the Michelin quality and safety I look for, this tire is beautiful to look at. My friend had these on his truck and I didn't know it but when I saw his truck these popped out above everything else and I knew these were for me. His opinion was they were a little rough the first week but then they were broken in. I haven't had that experience but love these. Can't wait till next month when I take them on some much needed road trips.
