Good tires

I like my new tires, but one of them is leaking, belle tire service can’t find cause, they sealed but few days since then I still notice less PSI than in other 3 tires.

Can't do better than Michelin tires

These are true all-weather tires. Excellent traction for their first winter driving on ice and snow. If they live up to their expected life--80k miles, they'll be a great value

Maybe I am missing something

Not sure where the outstanding ride quality reviews come from. Placed these on a Kia Telluride and the ride quality is noticeably rougher. The vehicle always appears to sway back and forth and you feel every bump.

I love the tires. It snowed about 6 inches and didn’t have any trouble at all. The tires are very quiet and the ride is very smooth. I’m getting ready to purchase another set for my other vehicle.

Dependable Michelin

My Honda HR-V used to come from the factory with Michelin Tires. Now, they come with Hankook Tires. With less than 20,000 miles I had two tire malfunctions. I purchased my Michelin tires and now feel secure on the road. The rebates were a plus.

Good ride. Surprisingly my gas mileage went down 2 miles per gallon from the Michelin Privacy tires I had on from the factory. My vehicle is a 2022 Ford Maverick hybrid.

Quieter than factory

These tires are so much quieter than our original tires, after around 1500 miles on them the handling was as good if not better than the original Continentals that came on the vehicle

New Tires

Cannot comment on wear or durability because the tires are brand new. So far the the grip and traction are great. I will need to give a review later for wet and snow in my area.so far only dry roads.

Great Tires

Excellent tires! I’ve been using Defenders for years and always replaced them around 30,000 km, well beyond the official warranty. What’s impressive is that the tread still looks barely worn. I highly recommend this brand—they offer outstanding value for the money. I’ve used Defenders for the past 11 years on my van, towing a 4,500 lb travel trailer every summer. Today the van has 563,095 km on it, all with Defenders—because I don’t like dealing with flat tires. Keep up the great work!
