"These tires are good for my driving needs. The day after getting them put on I drove from Baltimore County, Maryland to Palm Beach County, Florida, which is basically 17 hours of nonstop driving on I-95 for more than 1,000 miles. It was a variety of sustained conditions. If something were going to go wrong it probably would have, and it didn't. I had an enjoyable drive. Recently we had heavy snow that got icy and my vehicle performed very well in that condition as well. Overall, I would say these provided a consistent and reliable experience." - Pikesville, MD

Although I've only had the tires for about a month, I can honestly say that during the month they exceeded or surpassed what I expected.

Michelin tires have been my go-to tires for a while. They usually cost a little more but are worth it if you plan to keep the car. I only replaced my last set because a couple of road hazards shortened the life of the tires.

This is the second set of Michelin Defenders I have had. They are certainly not less expensive, but I believe they are worth every penny. The traction is awesome and they are virtually silent at highway speeds. For my trucks, this is the only tire I will buy.

Had the previous generation, used and abused them and got great mileage out of them. Great tire for those that drive 'energetic' like myself.
