When they have a michelin brand why would you go anywhere else.
bought the tires as a replacement for my 2019 Toyota? Tundra, 4 wheel drive tires are fantastic in the snow. Tires are very smooth. I used a decimal meter to compare the noise level with the previous set of tires. I had and they are quiet as a mouse plan to enjoy these tires for the next eighty thousand miles
I have always had Michelin Tires on my Honda Pilot. Excellent tires!!!
Tires are quite, wearing well and great traction for my Tundra
So far so good
Just purchased them yesterday, so too early to tell how they perform
Quiet, efficient, good looking tires mostly for on-road service.
Quiet, efficient, good looking tires mostly for on-road service. Comfortable on the od good grip and low noise. Thread is strong and long lasting. However, shoulders are fragile and easy to puncture (non repairable) or get bumps. That's why I'd suggest to stick to the paved roads only.
Sooth riding tire!
Tires have provided me with a smooth ride.
I live in Edmonton where the temperature can get to -40 C and the previous manufacturers tire sidewall broke in the cold weather.
The tires are good and I have had them before unfortunately the previous installation was another manufacturer because there was no availability of the defender. I do mostly pavement driving but also some off road driving and this tire handles both conditions well.
Very noisy not impressed for the price of the tire

So quiet. So smooth. So reliable in rain and snow.
These are the quietest and smoothest tires that I have ever owned. And they seem to work very well in the rain and snow as well.
