Amazing tires

I bought these Defender tires due to being made by Michelin and also due to the miles warranty. I put these on my Mustang. I had another brand and burned through most of the tread within 30,000 miles. After putting these on, the gripping power is great. Tires handle amazing also in snow and rain. When my Honda is due for tires, I will definately be replacing those with Michelin Defenders. Highly Recommend!

Better than you believe

I needed new tires but had never heard of the Defender tire from Michelin since they were a new product. I know with Michelin that quality and lots of track testing go into any new design so no need to be to concerned with getting a product I would be sorry I bought after the newness wares off. Now that I have 10k miles on these tires I can honestly say these tires have exceeded my expectations. Not only are they quite, great on the wet roads, and handle great but I see no visible ware after over 10k miles.

What a value - even 90,000 miles later!

I do a lot of driving during the week and this tire makes me feel at ease. Not only for the way it handles on the road, but the way it handles in the rain and snow. I've been keeping track every 5,000 miles and the wear is right on target. I would not only be purchasing another set, but will recommend this to anyone. Michelin Defender is the tire you can depend on today, as well as tomorrow.

Michelin Defender Tires

Thus is the second set of Michelin Defender tires I have owned, the first set I got over 85,000 miles on them and they still probably had 5,000 miles left on them. I drive 200 to 300 miles Daily for work and I wouldn't run any other tire, I've never had a flat or anykind of problem out of any Michelin Product as I run them on my 3/4 Ton truck and always get great service and life on the X series as well! I wouldn't buy any other tire as I've Ways been very pleased with any Michelin product I ever purchased. Bed

LRR with Grip

I don't have much complaint with these tires. I switched to these from low pro tires so the gas mileage has greatly improved. These tires are quite grippy for being low rolling resistance tires. I expected thin slick tires. Greatly surprised. I go for spirited drives sometimes and they hold up just fine. Rarely squeal or slide out.

Best for our family

After 3 month of research I found Defender by Michelin is best for our family. Living in very hot weather with a lot of afternoon rain showers, it was difficult to find the tire that covers both yet giving the safety for my wife driving the Honda van. After installing the tire I found the car to be driving even better than brand new. It seem to have a much better handling and firm grip on the road. Now, I have the tires on for almost six month and the van still drive really well and have not heard a complaint from my wife, which is great plus.

Awesome Ride!!!

I've always had Michelin tires on my 2001 Chrysler Town & Country Van. I have a great mechanic and I just turned over 285,000 miles and needed new tires. The closest tire to my older Michelin's was the Defender. What a ride. I've looked at new vans recently, but as long as my van looks as good as it does and runs and rides like a new one, why trade? These tires are the best Michelin's I had to date. Solid, smooth as glass. Thanks for a great ride.

Great tire for wet or dry road.

These tires hug the road in both wet or dry conditions. They are good also in cornering. They run quiet. I am very pleased with them. My husband has also driven my car and comme ted on how good it handled with the new Michelin Defenders on. I hope they last as long as they are warranted and I will replace them with the same tires again!

Buy These Tires. Worth Every Penny!

These tires are EXCELLENT. I drive a lot for my job. The ride is smooth and solid. When I first got the tires, my car felt like a completely new automobile. In rough weather, they hug the road. Extreme weather, there is very little slippage. I bought these tires just before the winter, out east. Driving in downpours and snow has been much better than before. I am far more confident driving in adverse conditions than ever before--and it's definitely due to the tires. No lie.
