Disappointing after 41K miles

I was happy to buy tires in 2012. I had Michelins on previous car and they were half warn after 60K. Today tires were checked during regular oil change and tire thread is 4/32nds. After 41K and 4 years there is not much thread left, maybe 1 more year of driving. The tires will not survive 90K or 6 years. It is very disappointing.

Michelin are the only tires I use

Michelin are the only tires I have used on the vehicles that my wife has driven for approximately 30 years. They have been very reliable, and have always delivered excellent traction, smooth / quiet ride, and high mileage. Even the few times that warranty problems have arisen, Michelin has always stood behind their warranty with quick replacement.

Quiet and Smooth Tire

I replaced my five year old, 50K mile Michelin Hydroedge tires with the Defenders. What a difference, the car is quiet and smooth again! What a pleasure. Great tire, I would buy again. I can't give it a wear rating as I only have about 3K miles on them so far.

My best Michelin's so far.

I bought 2 sets of Defender tires in the last 6 months. They ride a lot smoother and quiter than the previous ones. I bought the first set and after driving with them for the first two months. I got a second set for the other car. My wife and daughter are also driving both cars and we all agree on this (for a change :) ).

Excellent tire

I've been waiting for tire such as this. I have the Michelin LTX a/s tires on my SUV and always said why can't they make a tire like this for passenger cars. Well they did. I now have defenders on my wife's Camry and now on my 3 series BMW and love them. They are responsive, absorbs vibrations, extremely quiet and do well when the weather takes a turn for the worst and in Michigan that's 9 months out of the year. Will I buy them again? You BET!!

Best tires ever!

I put the Michelin Defenders on my Honda CRV and they are amazing!!!!! They are super in the snow and rain! They are a quiet tire for dry roads. I feel the tire really holds the road! I will highly recommend them to family, friends and clients! They are worth every penny I spent on them! I couldn't be more satisfied with my choice! I read the reviews and what I read is correct! A great tire!

Leap Over Your Cost Barrier And Win!

This is my second set of Michelin tires and I will never buy another manufactures tire again. These tires have made my driving experience enjoyable again. Although they cost a little more than what I used to buy, the ride comfort, fuel savings and a feeling of safety for outweigh the additional cost.

Nice tire, long life

On a 97 Buick Regal, commuting 200 miles per day. I've had these tires for about 45,000 miles and they still have half of their tread remaining. I've driven through snow and blizzards and was able to keep up with 4WD vehicles. I've driven through very heavy rainstorms and passed everyone with very little hydroplaning.

GREAT TIREs!!!!

These are the best riding tires that I have ever owned and they are so quiet. I put them on my 2010 Honda Civic and WOW! That made me get a set on my wife's 2011 Camary and they are providing the same service. GREAT TIRES! When friends ride in my Civic they cant believe the ride and how quiet the car is.

I feel safe again!

When I went to buy 4 tires I had it in my head I could not afford Michelin because they were the top of the line tires. I am estatic to say I have 4 Michelin Defenders and feel safe again. I just went through a heavy rain storm since purchasing the tires and did not hydroplane or have any problems driving. I will definately be buying Michelin tires again.
