Got a good price on these tires over the phone. Salesman switched me to a house brand. We could not get the vibration balanced out after 3 times including a "road force" balance. I insisted he take them off and give me the Michelins for which I originally asked. We installed the Michelins and with one or two tiny weights, instead of all the heavy ones on all the wheels, I have the smoothest ride anyone could ask for. It made me remember the words of a friend who was a service advisor for a car dealer who told people with balance problems, "do yourself a favor and let me sell you some Michelins. In every case it solved the problem. I will ONLY use Michelins!

We have bought Michelin tires for our vehicles for years because we thought they were the best. Not these. And they were not cheap. I have hated these tires since they were put on my vehicle. I feel like I have a ride like Fred Flintstone. Yaba daba do!

Only now am I forced to replace the front tires, and that's primarily due to my AWD 4Runner's tendency to abuse the front rubber (and a September registration renewal). Rear tires have 15K+ miles of tread remaining, and this is from a guy who pays little attention to air pressures. Michelin has never disappointed me, and even though there are less expensive options, they are also cheaper in almost every respect. My next purchase will be another set of Defenders, without question.

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.

without a doubt the best overall tires on the market. Best ride , wear and over all the best I have bought and would not buy anything else. Have bought 4 sets on different trucks in the last 15 to 20 years and never had a problem out of any of them and ran them all about 100,000 miles.

I put these onto my 2004 Tacoma when I first purchased it new and after 6 years & 95,000 miles, I've decided to replace them with another set.. I've driven on them 60 miles roundtrip to work everyday - in snow and blistering heat. All I've ever done is rotated and balanced... I couldn't be any happier!

I replaced the tires on my Roadtrek 200 Motor home. I couldn't believe the difference in the handling, how it held the road. They made the ride much smoother with less rattle in the vehicle. I own 5 vehicles and in the future will use Michelin on all of them. I can drive with confidence!

I use these on my 1999 Ford Conversion Van which I use to pull a 3,000 lb trailer. I got about 80.000 miles on the first set and 10.000 so far on the second. Never had a flat, love the traction, can't beat the tread-life. Can't imagine how they could be any better.

As my post states, Michelin tires are the standard when it comes to reliability, control and comfort. They have always been a great passenger tire because they offer a superior ride, allow you to maintain control in the harshest of weather and rarely fail (no one's perfect). They've been under my minivan since the day it was purchased (8 years ago) and sure, they cost a little more but I wouldn't risk my family's safety on anything less.

We do a lot of traveling on the road as a family. I also uae my suv for work. Ibought the tires three years ago and the tread has really held up to the demands I have put on them. I feel I have really made an investment buy buying these tires as I have about 50, 000 miles on them and they still perform like they did when I first bought them. There is nothing negative to say about these tires and I will buy them again in the future. Thanks Michelin!!!
