I have Defenders on my Highlander, Corolla and Rav. They are the only tire I will ever buy.
Have had Defenders on the 2013 Sienna, a heavier vehicle than the Highlander, and they lasted me 53k miles...could have gone longer, I thought I had a worn out tread causing noise that turned out to be a bearing.
I went Michelin from Costco and I have no complaints. They are not noisy and have been great in the snow we just had in Minnesota this last season
Switched to CrossClimates from Defenders. They are unequivocally better.
Have a set of X-ice for the winter. Can't go wrong with Michelin's.
The Defender LTXs have been great on my Highlander. Nice ride, quiet, good traction, long wearing too.
I have the defenders on my 2017, I have had them for 2 years and didn't put my snows on. They are a good all season tire and aren't noisy
The second day I owned my '22 Highlander, I swapped out the OEM tires for the Michelin Defenders. They are by far my favorite tires. I live way out in the country on a dirt road that doesn't get plowed for hours after a snow storm. These are truly year round tires and I don't have any problems in six inches of snow. I can't rate them high enough. Just fantastic tires.
I have the Michelin MXM4 my 2022 Model 3. I have about 25,000 miles on the tires and I am told I will need to replace them in a few thousand miles.
Our '11 Yaris came with these in a T-rated 185/60-15 with 160 treadwear. They had some tread left but were super unsafe by 20k miles (no traction on wet roads and uncontrollable axle hopping wheelspin with light acceleration). Total throwaway trash tires: super loud, no grip, harsh riding.
