Tires MICHELIN or OEM Volkswagen

Michelin Defender, great sound and 80000 mile tread life warranty. But the Toyos are nothing but hot garbage. I was too cheap to replace them and they gave up the ghost around 35000 miles. I have 25000 miles on the Defenders and still sound the same as new.

Michelin is a good brand too. Went with those my last tire change and they’re still going strong ????

Michelin's! Great grip especially in rainy weather, which is a priority for me. Plus, they're surprisingly quiet for a tire with such good handling.

I run Michelin Pilot A/S3+ tires on my Toyota 86. I picked up a nail somewhere between Sacramento and Long Beach and the only reason why I knew about it was because I parked in such a way that the porter called it out when I got to the Queen Mary. The tire never deflated or showed signs of air loss. I still had it replaced, but the fact that the tire was safe enough to get me a replacement spoke volumes.

BFGoodrich run me $220 a tire. Crap traction dry, horrible wet. Same price Michellin Pilot Sport AS4 work better wet than the Goodrich dry.

These tires are great in you live in bad weather state. Drive a lot of very bad weather. They probably louder. More comfortable ride.

Yep, these tires are *amazing* in the snow, and great the rest of the time, too.

Amazing tire, and great treadlife compared to the Michelins. Just not as sticky for corners :/

Used these on my explorer. Had to replace 3 in the first 3 months. After that, had no problems for 4 years. Had some on my f150, and swapped them for some nitto grapplers and wished I didn't. 95% of my truck driving is on the freeway. They are just so loud and the mpg is 2 to 3 mpg less. The defenders did so much better in the snow on paved roads.

I had Michelin Premiere LTX’s on my ‘21 Highlander V6 and they were bald at 27,000.
