WHAT A DIFFERENCE

I bought a used Honda CR-V with tires that were due for a change. I decided on the Defenders based on reveiws and overall value. It was a great choice. My Honda now rides like a Lexus and I feel safe and sure of the road. Thank you for the piece of mind and feeling that my family is safe.

Great Tire

Bought a set of these for my wife's car August 12 car had 86k right off the bat noticed a big improvement in ride and noise over previous tires. The car now has 116k tires rotated every 5-6k miles and they are wearing evenly I have no doubt they will make it to the 90k mile mark! As far as mpg goes my wife doesn't keep with it so its hard to say. I would say they help being a LRR tire. I will be buying a set of these when I need tires on my car!

Very Good Value for the Money

Over the years I have purchased many different manufacturers tires. Michelin gives you the best overall cost. You pay a little more for the tires, but you go twice the distance with them making them the least expensive tire when you look at total cost of ownership of your vehicle. I have almost 40,000 miles on my Defenders now and we still have good rubber. I commute several times a week 65 miles and these tires give me superior control and stopping ability, especially in bad weather.

Awful

Have had these on my minivan for 3.5 yrs. on my second set and after 18000 miles again they are worn smooth. Have have the tire pressure checked, and have them rotated every 5000 miles but they don't get any where close to the wear rating advertised.

Defenders saved my life!

Very simple...Defenders saved my life. The car was sliding all over in Chicago's winter ice and snow with the original tires. Now, I stop readily with no sliding danger. Mileage is better with a smooth ride. Thanks Michilin.....no more fear of driving in bad weather.

Complete Satisfaction

I looked at several other tires before purchasing the Michelin Defender. I was told I would get very good mileage. That is yet to be seen as I have had my new tires on my car only one qnd a half months. I don't think I paid any more for the Defenders as I would have paid for any other top line tire and yoet I got a proven product from a proven company. These new tires give me a very comfortable ride.

So far, so good!

So far, I love the feel of these tires - I drive on mountain roads and in wet weather, and they have been very comfortable and sticky (sticky is a good thing in a tight curve on a wet road!). I'm hoping we don't have much snow this winter, but if we do, I feel confident I will not get stuck on that one uphill slope a mile from home again this year! I think my gas mileage has suffered a bit, though, maybe 2 to 2.5 miles/gallon. But the feeling of security on the roads I travel is worth a few more pennies of gas. I'm very glad I purchased this set of tires for my Honda!

Fantastic!

I love my new tires! I have been having problems with sliding and not being able to turn corners during our Wisconsin winters. For the past couple years I dreaded my drive to and from work. I saw the ads for the Michelin tires on TV and decided to try them. It was the best decision I have made with my car! I no longer slide thru stop signs, I can turn a corner or steer through a curve in my own lane without worry of sliding into the vehicle next to me and hitting someone. I do not have to creep along at 10 mph because my car will not hold the road. This is the most relaxing winter driving to and from work that I have ever had with my car!!! I love my new tires! Thanks very, very much!!!

Perfect tire

I purchased a set of Michelin Defenders for my Saturn several months ago mainly due to the fact that I drive 150 miles a day to and from work, and the quality Michelin has always been known for. I must say I am really impressed and pleased with these tires. I mainly purchased them for the wear mileage warranty the Defenders are advertized for, but the handling, braking and quiteness of these tires make the daily long drive more relaxing. Heavy rains and lightly flooded roads are no match for the tires. Very nice and even wear across all four tires. Highly recommended!

You won't be disappointed

I have 3 vehicles and this is my second set of Defenders. There are cheaper tires out there. However I was so pleased with my first set I will never buy any other tire than Michelin. The traction and wear on my on my first set has been great. This tire has a 90,000 mile rating which was another factor. I would not hesitate to choose this tire.
