Great driving experience

I just replaced all four tires, and the driving experience was entirely different from driving on my old set. The handling of the car is fabulous.

Great replacement tires

These replaced the originals that were 6 plus years old. So far, the ride has been very smooth and quiet.

Great Tires

Just put on a new set of Michelin tires. Always happy when driving- less road noise, confident of their performance.

quiet ride

My last Michelin tires which were stock to my new Toyota had 60,000 miles so I purchased these 80,000 mile rated Michelin's, a great value.

Had them for 60,000 miles. No troubles at all. May get close to the 80000 mile mark. Smooth ride, great handling!

Michelin Defenders 2 are not for me

Loud tire noise. Sounds like they are out of balanced and causing vibrations, makes my camry sound like a helicopter.

Worst Michelin Yet -

Worst Michelin Tires I have ever purchased and I have been a Michelin Man all my life. The reviews are correct the tires generate to much noise

They are very loud

I don't know if it's because they are new, or if it's the vehicle, but the tire noise inside the car is dramatic.
