I wanted tires that would hold the road in rain and be stable in winter weather. The Defender gave that me that and more. I feel safe when driving in any weather condition. I have no negative comments about these tires.

I commute 32 miles each way to work and the defender is a great all season tire for our Utah weather. It has a smooth ride and the advertised mileage I will get out of the tire is promising. I also like how they look on my Honda Civic.

These are great tires. We have put about 5,000 miles on them and they are wonderful. We enjoy a smooth ride and improved gas mileage too. They are worth the premium you pay for the benefits you receive.

I just had my tires and wheels balanced and rotated again and with over 20,000 miles on them they are hardly showing any wear. Some of the best tires I have ever owned.

After 47,000 km driven, the remaining tread on my tires is 4/32"s on the rear and 5/32"s. My expectation is I'll likely get another 10,000 km on the tires before they need to be replaced. I do not recommend these tires.

I drive a bunch of miles. Tires are holding up great. Handle very well and handle wet weather extremely well. The tires are very quiet too. I cannot remark on snow tires. I have dedicated snow tires. We get way too much snow for a standard tire.

We have used michelin tires for years and always been satisfied with the products and the wearability. Plan to continue using them in the future. I definitely would recommend them to friends and family.

The Defender is terrible in snow. The tread packs with snow. The tread needs a larger gap between tread blocks to allow snow to be released. The LTX tread design seems better in snow.

We currently have 5 cars in our household of 5 drivers. We always get michelin tires and have always been pleased. they ride well, handle well and we get a lot of mileage from them. We've never been disappointed.

Michelin defender tires seem very nice. I have had Michelin Harmony on the same car and loved them. The new Defenders seem very good in snow and ride great. As far as mileage, time will tell;)
