Tires

Great tires. I did notice a small dip in my gas mileage with these over the Primacy we replaced.

Disappointing tire purchase

Tires are under the 80K mile warranty. Tires are leaving black tread material on driveway.

Michelin stands by their warranty! (great tires, too!)

These tires are like driving on clouds - everything is smooth, the tires absorb bumps and road imperfections easily, and I can tell they "have the road". In short, I feel very safe with these tires, which is important since my commute to work is 250 miles twice a month. I originally purchased CrossClimate 2 as replacement tires for my 2020 XT5 Sport but was not satisfied with them (wrote a review). I took the car back to my retailer and they swapped them for a new set of Defender 2 no questions asked. Michelin stands by their product and I've had exceptional customer service from both the retailer and Michelin in this process. The commitment to their product and exemplary service is why I will stay a Michelin customer.
