These tires are used on an AWD Vehicle year round. There is essentially no road noise from the tires and they just wear and wear and wear with no unusual problems having been encountered. Most trouble free tires I've owned. So good that I use Michelin Tires on three (3) vehicles. Two SUV's and one (1) full Size Passenger Car. The Michelin tires were not given to the writer of this review and the writer was not compensated in any way for writing this review.

I am a recently retired Fleet Manager with 40 years managing a large municipal fleet including Fire and Emergency Services vehicles and in my career Michelin has always been my number one choice for all on road units. The quality of the defender tire no only provides an excellent ride on my truck but also great tread wear which equals long life and economical operation costs.

Being in the car business for nearly thirty years there is no tire for a light truck like a Michelin. I would have customers request Michelin tires on their new trucks. Ride, wear, and style are just a few reasons for purchasing. Once you own a set of Michelin's you'll never settle for less

I won't buy any other tires. The Michelins that I replaced on my GMC Sierra truck had 101,000 miles and had plenty of tread remaining. The new Michelins are amazing and the ride is even better than before with the 3 year old set. I'm a Michelin tire fan for life. Getting ready to put a new set on my GMC Yukon XL.

The first set of michelin tires on my vehicle lasted seven years. They were still in good condition (no stress lines or marks), so much that the tire dealer wanted to know if I really wanted to get new ones. He said they would be sold as used tires quickly because they were still in good condition. The second set of michelin tires on my vehicle lasted nine years. I just got new ones this year. The old ones taken off had a few stressed lines. Overall the tires were still in good condition. Michelin tires are the only ones I will purchase to put on my vehicle. They are the best! They have long ware, good balance, smooth drive, and overall trouble free. I love my michelin tires! They give me great service for years! It is what I need, excellent quality for my money.

The best tires money can buy, I replaced factory tires Bridgestone with only 3,000 miles on them because I had two flats and then after a rotation developed a vibration I could not get rid of, put the Michelins on an no problem and all the other problems went away, plus I know with winter coming and wet weather the Michelins will be much safer on the road. I have them on all three of my vehicles.

I've only had these tires for two months. So far, they are excellent in all aspects. No noise! They look great! They provide a smooth ride! This is the fifth set of Michelin tires for my truck and so far I have never gone wrong with staying with Michelin. Worth the money

This set of tires were purchased about 5 years ago. I have driven the tires +/- 75,000 miles. They still have good tread are wearing smooth and have never had a flat tire. I have them on my GMC Yukon 1997 and am very happy with them. I highly recommend these tires to anyone under any conditions.

I recently put these on my 2015 Grand Cherokee and so far, they are great. Prior to these, I had the Latitude Tours, which I loved. These have a more aggressive looking tread pattern, and initially, I was a bit concerned they would have increased road noise, or compromise the comfort of the ride, but I have to say I am impressed - they are as good in those respects as the Latitude. These appear to be a more capable tire in snow and mud and I am looking forward to taking them through a Minnesota Winter. Recommmended!

Have had direct experience with this particular tire since 2006 when they were supplied as original equipment on the Honda Ridgeline. Now as a retired import technician, I can honestly say that I have never seen a problem with these tires under normal driving conditions. With normal tire rotation, tire pressure checks, and correct wheel alignment, I have seen them last well past 130,000 kilometres before reaching the wear markers. They are a great tire for light duty trucks and SUV's. I personally recommended and installed these tires to many customer vehicles with very positive results always. I can say with confidence that my recent set of improved LTX Defenders that I installed on my 2008 Honda Ridgeline have exceeded expectations. They are quiet, have great road feel, and improved grip in slippery conditions.
