Excellent handling and quiet

With only 10,500 miles on our 2024 Honda CRV Sport Touring AWD Hybrid, we picked up a nail in a non-repairable spot (I spent 25+ years in automotive repair and tires so I know when I have to replace and not repair). Unfortunately it was going to take about a week to ge the same exact Michelin tire to replace this one, but my daughter has to leave to go back to college in the early morning. The option was to buy another set of tires and keep the 3 good ones. So that is what we did. The Michelin Defender 2 is a great tire with an 80,000 mile life expectancy. It handles well and provides a nice smooth and quiet ride. If there is one thing I cannot stand, it is a noisy ride on my car (looking in the direction of other major tire brands that sponsors variations of auto races and monster trucks). Back to these specific tires though, the handling is great and my daughter that drives this car even mentioned that she likes these tires better than the orignial ones that came on the car. The tires are responsive and flex the way they should to provide a smooth and quiet drive. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an excellent tire.

Good tire so far

These tires worked well this past winter and after 8000 miles show very little wear. There was never much snow to test them out in so I can't rate that. On the ice they got me home fine but I feel a studded tire would have been better, however because these are on an everyday commuter car studs dont make sense.

Michelin X-ice - no problem!

Michelin tires are used on my car. The great thing about this product is its name..Michelin. Let me share a story. We had moved to CO 4yrs ago. We had always used Michelin tires, but for some reason I thought I might need a different tire for the harsh CO Winter. I asked the retailer what tires would he put on his wife's vehicle for this part of the world, he replied "Bear Claw." I immediately purchased four tires. OMG- never again. I think I prayed and cursed more that Winter..did that retailer hate his wife? I couldn't get out of my driveway some days when the snow and ice hit. Needless to say the following year I went back to Michelin X-ice. The first day the snow and ice came I was taking my children to school. We started to leave our driveway and after a little wheel spinning, the car rolled out of the driveway, I looked at my children, eyes bulging in anticipation of getting stuck, and said with a smile, "Michelin X-ice- no problem." and we all laughed. Thank you Michelin, great name..great product..

Quiet and Smooth Ride

I purchased these tires for my VW bug. I wanted a quiet tire and a smooth ride as my can is small and if the wrong tire is purchased it can be noisy. These tires are just what I wanted. They are quiet and give a smooth ride. I recommend them highly!

Top Quality Tire

Less road noise.

Noticed that road noise was much less with these tires. That was really great!
