The defender tire has worked great for me, the old tires I had rode hard and were very noisy. The defender tires are quiet and give a smoother ride. Also they did not work as good in the snow as these tires do. I have about 5000 miles on them, rotated them once and did not see much wear on the tread. The size is 205 55 x16 on a 2005 Pontiac Vibe all wheel drive

The Best Tire Choice, The Only Tire Choice For Me Everytime When I'm In Need Of Tires. I've Been Driving Since 1979, Age 17, When I Received My N.J. Driver's License. I Defected Once, Big Mistake. Keep Up The Great Work With The Greatest Tires Ever Made. Happy Trails, Eric.

I have been driving on Michelin Defenders in my Subaru Forester for about six months. I have driven in wet, icy and snowy conditions and have been impressed with how they hold he road in these conditions. I am also pleased with how quiet they are. The best praise, I suppose, is that I would definitely buy them again.

This tire is very smooth riding and is labeled "Green" , low rolling resistance. The one thing I noticed is that now the car seems to float around a little at highway speeds. It seems like the tire pressure is low but that is not the case. The feeling would be like you are steering a boat. Tires were installed last month on my 2010 Fusion and now have about 2500 miles on them. 2000 of which are highway.

Although we have not had these tires on this vehicle long, I'm confident we will like them. I've only driven in dry conditions so far but have observed very quiet road noise and great emergency braking unfortunately yet fortunately if you know what I mean.

I'm 71 years young. I've bought a lot of tires over the years, and have used them hard. I have always done a lot of traveling all through these 50 states. I can't recall being as satisfied with any other tires as I have been with the four Defenders I put on my vehicle. The ride is smooth, quiet and comfortable. WHAT MORE CAN A DRIVER ASK FOR!!!

After suffering with tire noise for over Five years, from my previous tire purchase, I am thrilled that my Defender Tires do not make any tire/road noise. Immediately after my last purchase I noticed an unpleasant and irritating kinda roar from the tires. Not so with the Defenders, they are quiet. I am so glad that I replaced the noisy tires way before I needed tires. I really didn't think that I could afford Michelin Tires but with everything considered, my low milage per year and treatment history, I figured that I could not afford not to have Michelins!

After 8 yrs of the brand that came with our cruzer we are finally totally satisfied with our new defenders. The car feels like a new car, rides like a dream. Every time we get in the car its like a new gift. after all the problems we had with our old sets of tires. On top of that we upgraded.to nitrogen instead of air. one totally satisfied customer!

I drive a lot. Probably average around 24,000 miles a year, or more. I drive all sorts of roads, from backwoods country roads, to super highways, all in the same day. I feel safe on my Michelin Defenders. One time I had to do a panic stop that turned into a panic diversion to avoid rear ending an SUV dead- stopped on the approach to the Golden Gate Bridge. I'll never forget how, by some miracle, I managed to avoid this accident. I give some of the credit to my Michelins. Thank you !! Regards, Peter Fittipaldi

When I was a young driver back in 1969, my father thought me that probably the one most important safety items of a car is its tires. By having good tires you not only minimize the risk of catastrophic unexpected tire failure but also the inconveniences with it. I have always tried to go with Michelin whenever possible as I feel I can trust my family's safety in doing so. I was so pleased with the current set of Defenders that I bought a set for my son's car as well. Dan Burke, Plano TX
