WAYYY better than the factory tires as well. night and day. no more hydroplaning, no more snow issues
Reliable as hell, I found one negative but it's mostly my opinion. The tires are great but I believe it can be excellent. I wanted to swap out the tires with Michelen Cross Climate 2 tires for crazy grip in rain.
Defender2 hands-down. Michelin reports an honest UTQG. Those tires will last.
Michellines are much better tires in general. I've had great experiences with them vs. Goodyear and Firestone.
I have these guys on my V8 SUV. Didn't give them much thought, was a good deal, and ride quality is much improved. Mine balanced fine and look pretty new after a year and almost 10,000km. I don't drag or track race, I'll floor it occasionally for a thrill and I drive probably 160km/h max on highways.
Michelins are cheaper to run because overall they last longer both in mileage and cracking. $ per mile much cheaper.
I went with the Michelin Defender 2 on my last set, and now I totally get why they’re so popular. The ride is super quiet and smooth—even on rough pavement—and they’ve been wearing incredibly well. I’m already past 40,000 miles with plenty of tread left, so I believe the 80,000-mile warranty is legit. Wet traction has been solid too, and I feel confident driving in all kinds of weather.
3rd set of Defenders on mine. Such a quiet and great handling all season tire.
I have them on my VW Atlas R line so they are the 21 in tire. I like them but it's a hard ride. When you hit bump you can feel it in you bones..in the rain they are great. Blows right through deep puddles
The Michelins that came my 2018 Corolla hatch barely, barely made it 18k
