It's now been a full year with mine. Loved them in the winter. Loved them in the summer.
Michelins defender platinum.
Never look back. Quieeeeet and long lasting. Great rain performance.
Have about 5k on the Michelins after 55K on General Grabbers. As far as quiet goes, the Michelins are definitely quieter (and I think smoother) than the Generals.
I had defenders on my old truck and they last forever.
I drive heavy snow in the winter and logging roads in the summer. I found the stock Michelins hold up really well, and are extremely quiet without slipping in dirt or snow. The tires just don't look like they should work as well as they do.
I run these to get to ski resorts from denver on cold ass winter mornings. Good tire
We’re on 2nd set of the cross climates on an XC90. Only downside is they are a little noisy. Soooo much better than OEM tires…
Only thing that’s been on our Polestar 2 since the day we bought it back in 2022. Just put second set on after 60k miles, so I can vouch for the tread wear rating.
Truly a shame that Michelins dry rot so quick because they ride great and are pretty good mileage wise. The general rule is replace tires every 5 years, but I see Michelins start dry rotting just 3 years after production. Really sucks for older people who don’t drive as much.
I had the Michelin AS4 on my last car, I wouldn't do them again. They're loud and ride poorly.
