Michelin tires are the top performers !

I've been using Michelin Tires on my 1998 Dodge Caravan since I got it in 1997. I tried other brands intermittently, however, Michelin has proven to be the most reliable and top performing on and off the highway. I never worry about my tires at any time of the year or any kind of weather. I have always gotten home after month long trips across country on my Michelins and gotten great milage. I just put a set of Defenders on at 231,500 miles and will rely on them just as I have previous brands of Michelins. I look forward to another 100,000 miles of safe and dependable tire performance.

Sturdy, comfortable truck tire

These tires are the perfect replacement for stock S-10 tires. They're a little wider and taller than stock, so the ride is more comfortable. These are also more durable than the stock replacement tires, I don't like braking around corners so normally by now, I've already worn the sides down but these have held up to my abuse great! I have no complaints at all.

Michelin Defender Tires

Purchased Michelin Defender tires and very satisfied. They are good in wet weather and are very quiet as to road noise. I can actually hear the radio at much lower volumes now. They also handle very well on fast turns and braking distance. I would recommend these tires for a good all around weather tire.

Great Tires! I like the 90000mile rating

I like that this is the last tires I will have to buy for my car. It will have a 140000 miles on it with the 90000 mile rating. I will trade my car before then. I will definitely buy the same tires for my next car. I've been buying Michelin Tires for over 40 years (Best Tire on the Road).

Defender battles against wear

The Defender has battled against wear and is still going strong. I would buy this set of tires again and have it on both of my vehicles. Love the extra mileage it gives you so changing the tires for a new set is postponed for a longer period of time.

Great quality - Highly recommend

Installed 2 months ago on my Sienna 2005 Mini Van. These tires are replacing the second set of tires on this vehicle, also Michelin. Have nothing bad to say about these tires. As advertised, they are a quite running tire. They have excellent handling performance. They feel sure when braking. Performs well on dry and rain, the winter will be the real test but I feel confident that I will not be disappointed. Yes, these are a better grade of tire, costing a little more but they are well worth the extra money. I would HIGHLY recommend these tires to anyone, feeling certain that they will not be disappointed.

Home again

I purchased 4 Michelin Defender tires for my 2009 Honda Civic after the previous set of tires (another brand) wore out prematurely. I decided to come back home to Michelin after being lured away by the claims of a competing brand. The Defenders wear well, ride quietly, and hopefully will last as long as other sets of Michelins I have purchased in the past.

Great ride and handling.

The difference between the Defender tires and my old tires is night and day. Better handling during lane changes on the highway and tooling around town, and vastly smoother ride with my 2006 Uplander. Higher priced and worth it especially if they go the full 90,000 miles.

I would buy this product again.

This is a great tire. I have total confidence in Michelin tires. In fact, I have so much confidence in Michelin that I drive a four wheel-drive Van that requires "run flat" tires since there is no spare tire on this vehicle. Run flat tires are terrible. The tires do not wear well or drive well. I have switched to Michelin tires and have total confidence that I still do not need a spare tire. Have been using Michelin tires for years. I was glad to switch back to Michelin from the original "run flat" tires. This may not work for everyone, but it works for me.
