Michelin tires provide a great ride and excellent mileage *but you can never run one low on air, it will destroy the tire*.

Pros: great ride, excellent mileage
Cons: destroy tire low air

Falken Tires

I'd maybe recommend the newer [Falken RT660+ in 225/45ZR15](https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Falken&tireModel=Azenis+RT660%2B&sidewall=Blackwall&partnum=245WR5RT660P&tab=Sizes) since they're a little wider and a grippier compound.

Pros: grippier compound

They are good. They lasted 12k kms on my Hayabusa. It is a heavy and powerful bike that eats tires for breakfast, so that mileage is impressive.

What I also like in the Road 6 is how quickly it gets warm in cold/wet weather.

Pros: good, impressive mileage
Mileage: 12000 km

If you were curious about the longevity of these tires, I'd say they are well worth your money. I ride a 2019 Kawasaki Versys 650. It is not a particularly heavy bike so I'm sure that helps a bit with the wear. I also check my tires pressure regularly

I currently have 16,000 miles or 25,000ish km on these Michelin Road 6 tires.

Pros: well worth money
Mileage: 25000 km

I have the AT3W on my ram. 5 years 70,000 miles no rotations (got lazy this time). I just purchased a set of the AT4W. Hoping to get as many miles, or more with proper rotation.

Pros: hoping for many miles
Mileage: 112000 km

There are a lot of excellent tires in that size. And honestly, the Defender is a mediocre tire anyway.

Pros: excellent tires
Cons: Defender is mediocre

The first set survived 18k miles. I thought it was alignment issue so replaced with another set of OEM tires.

The second one lasts only 16k miles…

Pros: replaced with OEM
Cons: lasted short mileage
Vehicle: Subaru
Mileage: 18000 km
