3.7 star average is nuts! I have had 2 sets of Defenders on my Ford Expedition. Nothing else compares! Amazing tread life - 70k is true. Amazing traction - WV mountains no slip, no slide, will go anywhere. Amazing quiet ride. The only tire to buy for your SUV - bare none!

Have these tires due to 70K mile warranty. At 20K miles, noticed extreme wear on the front. Realized had not completed rotation. Began rotating tires, but to no avail. Tread worn completely across entire tire on 2 of them. 2 remaining tires also low on tread. Likely 10K left on those. Have bought at least 5 other sets of Michelin's (LTX MS & LTX MS2). All lasted at least as long as the warranty. Not these. Tire dealer said nothing can be done for warranty. Pretty disappointing. These tires are not cheap.

Bought these tires a month ago to replace the same set. Last set had 96,000 miles on them. Definitely not much left on them so it was nice to replace. Went on three trips already with heavy rains and winds, performed great. Great ride, great traction.

I have this tire on a 2018 Toyota Highlander Hybrid XLE Tire is very comfortable and quiet. I like the wet and dry performance of this tire even when pushed hard. It can easily handle the 306hp the highlander has to offer during hard acceleration, braking and turning.

Always had luck with Michelin tires until I purchased 4 defender tires for my ram pickup. The loud whine is unbearable on blacktop roads. A little quieter on concrete but still loud. Unfortunately I waited longer than 30 days to return them.. seriously considering buying new tires even though only 2500 miles on these

I used buy the older LTX;s what great smooth riding and handling tire and mileage had them on 4 vehicles...now a set of these new LTX Defenders on my 2014 Pro4x Xterra, man these tires RIDE HARD and handing not great at all 15000 miles on them sidewalls are to stiff from on road driving..next time I need tire I"m going back to the BF GOODRICH that they came from the factory new.

Although these are a M/S tire, I switch them out over the winter for winter tires. Since these were purchased for summer (non-winter) use, for those months, I'm happy with them. I like their feel and their ride is very comfortable, quiet and secure. I have no issues with them. Although I've only had them a short time, I see no reason not to recommend them.

Always love my Michelin Defender's! My third set on two different trucks. Long life!

Rides much smoother than the factory tires

These new tires get me wherever I want to go without any worries or concerns. Nice firm ride.
