Very Good Tire for the Money

We have had these tires on our car for approximately a year. I am very happy with the purchase. Even though Michelin was at the higher end of the price range, the performance has been great and our car's handling has improved. Welkl worth the investment.

Performance at it's best

Drive on country roads between corn fields and soybean fields, with deer always a threat. The performance of this tire for stopping and the sudden swirve to miss a deer is fantastic. Mostly have the road to myself so I can always use the hanging power of this tire on wet roads. Saved me more than once, really.

Have Michelin Wheels will travel

It always amazes me at the quality difference in tires. I have tried other tires and ultimately come back to Michelin every time. The tires last longer, the ride is smoother and I like the control it gives me when driving, especially in rain. I have to say the only thing I don't like about Michelin tires is the cost. But you do get what you pay for. If I buy a 90,000 mile tire I get 90,000 miles of smooth travels and safety in my car. In fact now that 2 of my 4 kids are driving I have put Michelin's on their cars too. I don't have to worry about them on the road to due poor quality tires.

Would recommend this great Michelin tire

We continue to trust the Michelin brand. These tires perform fantastically on our Chevy minivan. In all kinds of weather (snow, rain, hot sun) and all road conditions we are glad to have our family riding on Michelins. As my father before me, Michelin is my preferred brand.

Defenders on a 90 VW Vangon

I was reccommended to size 215/60-16 Michelin Defenders on a set of 16" x 7.5" alloy rims for my 1990 VW Vangon; AMAZING! Increased contact patch to the road; great handling/ride and hardly any body roll as compared to VW factory stock rims/tires. So far, the Michelin Defenders have held up exceptionally well. Worth every $ and has given me a renewed life to my 23 year old VW Vanagon.

Wife's car gets Michelins

I put Michelin Defenders on my wifes Corolla earlier this year. She really likes the tires. It is about time to rotate them and I don't really notice any tread wear at all. I hope they last 90K miles. It may be the last set of tires I buy for that 06 Corolla. Happy in Deland, FL

Great ride and handling

We put the Defender tires on our 2002 Chrysler T&C almost a year ago and drive the van daily. When we had them installed it was a whole different van. We were amazed when we drove it home, it was so much quieter. The ride and handling is wonderful. We live in FL where we get heavy summer down pours and I feel like I have complete control wet or dry. We have run Michelin tires on several of our previous vehicles and that is the biggest reason we looked at Michelin tire first. We've never had any negative experience running Michelin tires.

Strong like Steel

Purchased this set of tires to replace earlier tires that are no longer manufactured. I am very pleased with the Michelin Defender product, they provide a very smooth and quiet ride. I would recommend these tires to anyone considering purchasing new tires.

Keeping my family safe

The tires have performed admirably. This summer has been filled with rain and we have had no hydroplaning. I have been impressed with the tire wear, which has been minimal. I am very impressed with the price and safety they have provided for my family. I would definitely recommend these tires to anyone needing new tires. Thanks, Mike

Reliablle, Quiet and EXCELLENT!

I have had such excellent wear and drivability with Michelin tires. I bought a performance car and needed to have something that would compliment the car and the expectations of being safe in the extreme changes in the North East weather. Michelin Defender has met all my expectations! I have always had the Michelin Energy Plus but decided to try the Defender. I am so psyched! Not only do they handle well, they are very quiet-and that great warantee leaves me confident and happy! We have had downpours here out of the blue and puddles that can't be avoided and my car handled very well. Thanks to Michelin. GREAT RELIABLE TIRES!
