Perfect Tires

I bought these for my Jetta in 2019, my car had 62,000 miles on it. I am almost ready for new ones I have 145,000 on my car! I love Michelin's won't buy anything else, if it is good enough for the Paris Metro than it is good enough for me! (We road the Metro)

Very bad load tire -

I bought a set of defender 2 tires 3 weeks ago (11-20-24)- they rumble and drone like no other tire I have ever had. Stay away from these tires! I have been a fairly consistent Michelin customer for over 30 years and this is my first dissapointment with one of their products. I will try to replace or upgrade using the warranty, but I don't expect this to be an easy battle now.

Not up to my Expectation

I installed these tires on Mazda CX 9 2021, less than a month ago, after reading positive reviews about these tires. Disappointed, brand new tires, thumping noise at 100km/hr plus speed .Tire shop recheked it, balance it again, its better, but not the same smoothness as OEM tires Falken Ziex Ct 50. ires, balanced it again. I won't buy or recommend. Wish, could replace it with continental extreme contact.

First set of Michelin's

Best tires I have ever owned. I have mainly leased in the past and OEM was never Michelin. I have worked in and around cars for a good part of my career and as an enthusiast as well, I always knew Michelin was the best. When it came time to replace all 4 on my wifes SUV, I knew there was only one brand. Handles like a dream in the rain, they absorb bumps and potholes much better than her old tires, and I feel way more confident with this rubber than other tires I have experienced. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

Michelin Tires are the BEST!

Amazing handling, and my car has never driven so smooth! I did see an immediate drop in MPG approximately 4 mpg due to having more rubber on the ground which explains the go cart like handling. The overall handling and comfort is well worth the small loss in mpg.

Not as quiet as the Michelin Energy Saver

i recently purchased the Defender 2 for my Toyota Camry LE. My original tires were the Michelin Energy Saver. These tires seem to perform well, but they are not as quiet as the Energy Saver. I'm considering swapping them out for the Energy Saver because of this. Have you heard this from any other reviews?

MaryAnn, sorry to read you are experiencing noise with the Defender 2 tires. There are many factors involved in harmonics of all vehicle/tire combinations. Remember, as part of the Michelin Promise Plan, we have a 60 day satisfaction guarantee. Have your retailer contact us with any questions.

Using Only Michelins

I have used Michelin's on all my vehicles for many years. When I bought my 2014 Durango, it came with another brand. After 20,000 miles or so they were wearing. Michelins have been on it ever since and I not have almost 50,000 on them and not near wear points yet. Great traction in wet weather, low noise, and smooth ride. What not to like.
