We have these (T+H) on the Rav4. No complaints. Quiet, good in the rain, comfy, inexpensive when on sale. Tread life isn't 80k or whatever the warranty number is, not by a long shot, but what tire ever hits that? They'll need replacing around 55-60k, at which point I'll get the Defender 2.

Pros: quiet, good in rain, comfy, inexpensive

Cons: tread life not 80k

Vehicle: Toyota

I've used both tires. The Pirellis came oem on my Audi. I swapped them fir the Michelins. Ride comfort and handling made the Michelins the clear cut winner.

Pros: ride comfort, handling

Vehicle: Audi

Have had both. Ok my second set of Defenders now. If you want actual on road performance and tread life get the Defenders. In my experience the Michelins are much better in rain.

Pros: on road performance, tread life

The Michelins have a somewhat well-known delamination problem. I got them too from Costco on a Michelin month, and they are definitely a marked improvement over the stock tires in all regards. They're grippier in the dry and wet and quieter.

Pros: grippier, quieter

Cons: delamination problem

Mileage: 10000 km
