The tires have a great ride and feel. I have noticed that I am getting about 2 miles per gallon less than my old tires. I realize it could be a variety of things but my driving habits are about the same. It is the beginning of winter so maybe that has something to do with it.

I purchased these tires for my Tahoe in 2016 because they came highly recommended. I've really liked their performance over these years with the gentle driving I do, mostly city -short distance to work, errands, and one trip to Colorado. However, I've only driven 38,000 miles thus far and am being told I need to replace due to tread wear. I understand the recommended replacement time period, but it seems the tread should have lasted longer than this. Am I missing something?

After so much research and going back and forth between different brands and different tires I always found myself coming back to this model Defender tire. Besides having the Michelin quality and safety I look for, this tire is beautiful to look at. My friend had these on his truck and I didn't know it but when I saw his truck these popped out above everything else and I knew these were for me. His opinion was they were a little rough the first week but then they were broken in. I haven't had that experience but love these. Can't wait till next month when I take them on some much needed road trips.

Extremely smooth. quiet and great rolling resistance. they coast beautifully.

Only tires that I buy....Michelin Defenders. Number one tires for SUVs!

I will give traction, durability, performance, handling and noise all 5 stars.

Not as quiet as I expected them to be for an all season radial of this caliber.

Best tires that I have bought!

SEEM A LOT QUIETER THAN MY LAST TIRES

Very smooth, and quiet on all surfaces. Good traction cornering in the rain.
