The origional tires that came on the new Camry only lasted 28,400 miles and were beginning to waterplane, so we replaced them with the Michelin Defender. I've only had the new tires for two days and can already tell the difference in the ride and handling. Over the years we have driven the Michelins over 250,000 miles and have never had any problems with any of them. I would highly reccomend these tires to anyone.

When I bought my 2012 Honda CR-V, it came with the typical low end brand tires and I knew that I was going to have to live with it till it was time for new ones. The low brand tires that I had on my car was so NOISY....UGH...talk about noisiest tires I believe I ever own. I also put lot of miles on my car as well so imagine my excitement when I finally wore the tires out to replace it with Michelin tires!!! I've had Michelin tires before and let me tell you...when I drove off the tire store today with a set of brand new Michelin tires....my car is so QUIET that I can actually can think!! It also drive so much better. I don't know what it will do to my gas mileage but I know it is going to be an improvement. I will always be a Michelin customer for life cause I know they stand by their products and my hubby and I had very good luck with them!! Don't be afraid to spend that extra bucks for good tires...it is well worth it! Thank You Michelin for outstanding tires as always!!!!

Michelin honors its warranty. I had some other Michelins on the Prius that caused vibrations despite being balanced 3 times. They replaced those tires with the Defender, which were cheaper, but perform very well. The ride is smooth and quiet. I have driven through rain at high speeds, and they feel like dry pavement. These tires are a major upgrade over the OEM tires and I recommend the Defender for the Prius.

I purchased a set of Michelin Defenders at the start of last winter as the factory ones on my wife's Rav4 had finally worn out. I must say, I am very pleased with the tire's performance. They've given great traction during 3-4" deep snow, icy roads, wet roads, and torrential rain storms. Best of all, they've increased her fuel efficiency by about 3mpg! I would absolutely buy another set.

I have two cars, both of which are on Michelin tires. One car is on Harmony series and has given me excellent service with no incidents of any sort. My other car is on the Defender series and shows great tire wear and has been really great in all kinds of weather. I have great confidence when I am driving on Michelin tires.

Michelin Tires have been a part of my life since I learned as a young lady purchasing a car, tires are as important as the car. So with some research and testing, Michelin was the tire for me. I have used Michelin tires over 25 years. Feeling safe in my car includes my tires and Michelin does it!!!!

Just bought a set Defenders for my Honda Civic. I am very impressed with the handling and quietness of the tires. My stopping power also increased substantially. A HUGE HUGE difference over the previous set of tires. Glad I paid the extra $. Haven't had them long enough to assess improvement in mileage or decreased wear. Still waiting for some precipitation to see how they handle wet roads. So far, I love them!

In the last couple of months I replaced tires on both our 2005 Sienna and 1999 Corolla with defenders. So far, they seem to be doing a good job. In the NorthEast, we already hit many bad weather days and I had no issues or complaints so far. However, MPG went down by 4 miles in our Sienna. Time will tell how well they do in their second to fourth years.

I have always purchased Michelin tires!!! Even though the tires are great, you should always get a road hazard warranty. If the company does not offer one, go elsewhere. Everything is super about Michelin tires, you will be pleased. The ride is smooth & the road grip is nice. Try them today!!!

AFTER VIEWING MANY REVIEWS AND TIRES, I DECIDED ON THE DEFENDERS FOR MY WIFE'S 2011 ALTIMA. I AM SO GLAD WE BOUGHT THESE TIRES. ALMOST NO ROAD NOISE, HANDLE GREAT WITH A GREAT RIDE. I AM EXTREMELY IMPRESSED WITH THESE TIRES. WE GOT THE 215/45R17 I DO BELIEVE WITH AN AFTERMARKET RIM BUT STILL LOOKS FACTORY ON THE CAR. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A TIRE FOR A CAR THIS SIZE, THIS IS THE TIRE TO GO WITH HANDS DOWN. I ACTUALLY CANNOT FIND A DOWN SIDE TO THESE TIRES YET. WE HAVE HAD THEM ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND THEY LOOK GREAT ON THE CAR. I LOOKED AT SEVERAL BRANDS AND THIS HAD A 4.5 PLUS STAR EVERY WHERE I LOOKED. EXCELLENT TIRE!!!
