The defender tires replaced the original set of Michelins on my Honda Odyssey. The vehicle was noticably quieter and gas mileage increased. The mileage between fill ups increased by 7%. On trips it has done the same, so rolling resistance has improved. Hopefully, the total wear out mileage will prove to be better than the previous set. I do rotate tires regularly and check air pressures semi-monthly. In closing, I think Michelin makes a very good product.

I bought these tires to replace other Michelin tires that done well by me and my Honda CR-V but had now worn out & been discontinued. I love these tires. I live down a dirt road and use my CR-V for all types of road driving and weather conditions. These tires seem to hold the road more securely and smoothly than others I've had and the most surprising feature was that they cut down on road noise inside my vehicle. That was a noticable difference even to my friends who also have a CR-V. They were driving on the same type tires that I had before and now because of my experience with these Defenders, they aren't even going to shop around when it is time to replace their tires. They already know they want these too. This is a great product and they keep me going everywhere I want to go and make the ride enjoyable.

The Defender is used on a Pontiac Grand Prix, driven by my wife. The high quality of Michelin vehicle tires provide my wife the edge of a stable handling tire that gives you the best stopping capacities. The Defender handles well in all weather condition, rain, snow and whatever nature presents to you. The tire also provides a smooth comfortable ride. The Defender out classes all others. For over 40 years we have used Michelin exclusively on all our vehicles, passenger and class C motor homes. The most impressive example of handling was in 1974 while coming home from work traveling about 55 on a paved highway. There was a utility van several car lengths ahead carrying an aluminum ladder on top of the van. I always watch my mirrors to know who or what is behind me. The ladder came off the truck into our path. I swerved into the oncoming lane that was vacant and back into my lane having cleared the ladder. The tires did not squall or loose stability, my large station wagon did not loose handling capabilities. The passenger riding with me knew something happened, but was not sure what had just taken place. This all happened within about 2 seconds. I became a firm believer of Michelin superior quality.

I bought these tires for my Dodge Charger. I was having some difficulty with traction in heavy rain and puddles with the original manufactures tires. We have a lot of strong thunderstorms this time of year and on the highway I was hydroplaning at speeds over 55 mph. The traction is SO much better now. This is the best set of all season tires I have owned in a very long time. I can't wait to see how they perform in the slushy mess we call winter!

I have been driving Michelins for 27 years & this is the Quietest & smoothest ride I ever had. These tires are on my 2002 LeSabre Ltd., & are far superior to the best Michelins I had on my 2001 Lesabre Ltd. (from 2001 thru 2009). Everything considered, these tires are truly economical.

Love these tires. Right away I noticed the smoother and quieter ride. I recommended them to a friend who also bought the same tires. I am surprised that a 90k tire rides this well. I look forward to enjoying these for a long time and will put Michelin tires on my other car when I need them.

I have been driveing for 60 years & these tires are the quitest I have ever had & they also have great traction in the heavy rains we get in south Florida.What ever you guys are doing in MICHELIN don't stop .You guys are so far ahead of the compatition.( GREAT JOB )

Bought this set of tires about a year ago, and they are holding up much better than original set of tires that came with our van. They are much quieter, and seem to handle wet weather better. Very pleased overall, just hoping they last as long as their warranty states.

My parents have these tires on their cars and told me that they really liked the performance of the tires and said I should give them a try. A few months later I did buy them. I will have to say the are really great tires. They ride really smooth and handle awesome in the rain. As for snow and ice they are exceptional. I never slid once while having these tires on my car. Thanks for such a great tire! I now feel safe when driving in all kinds of weather.

The first mile I rode on these tires (Defenders) I knew I made the right choice. I did my research and picked the best tire out there, and am I glad I did. Fantastic ride, quite, and firm handling. a little most money, but well worth it. BUY THESE TIRES, YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY!
