Super Happy With My Tires

Was in desperate need of new tires! They were so slick, I would be extra anxious driving in the rain and snow. Was in COSTCO one day and my sister suggested I get a quote, which I did. When it came time to buy the tires, the price was actually lower than the quote. Went with the Michelin Defender2 All Season. Smooth performance, great traction, and excellent performance.

Very Impressed

These tires have outperformed any tire I have purchased in the past. I drive long distance for work. I love the quiet smooth rides I receive with these tires. I will never choose another brand.

Rough Ride - High Vibrations

These tires ride very rough and noisy at highway speeds. The vibration they produced was so annoying, there was no way I could take a long trip with them on my car. I took them back to Costco and had them replaced within a week. Not a good tire for my Volvo S60. I bought these tires based on Costco representative recommendation, and sorry that I did.
