Quit procrastinating...just buy them!
You know how when you read reviews people say "Wow what a difference these tires make" Put a set of these Defender 2 Michelins on your SUV & then you'll be saying that too! Excellent tires.....well worth the money!!!
I bought these about 4 months ago. BIG MISTAKE
DO NOT BUY IF MPG MATTERS! I bought these 4 months ago, and have driven them for about 5000 miles. I have a hybrid that was getting low 40s for mileage. Since getting the Michellin defenders I'm getting low 30s. That's about a 22 percent mpg drop. Pretty ridiculous! What a mistake. DO NOT BUY THESE IF GAS MILEAGE MATTERS. Michellin should be ashamed to sell these tires!
Andy, there are several Michelin products available that are suitable for your Toyota Rav4 Hybrid, depending on your driving style and preference. One of our team members will be in touch to discuss options for fuel efficiency.

Excellent All season tires
Just got Defender 2 installed for my CRV. Feels the comfort drive and so quiet. Very please with the tire
Performing very well
Have always been a fan of the Michelin tire. Don't know how often your customers get 100,000 miles out of their tires but I am coming up on that magical number. My Honda Accord has 195,000 miles on the odometer and the tires still have 4/32nd left of tread. They were purchased with 99,000 on the odometer, have had 3 low tire pressure warnings but never had one that left me stranded. Will recommend these to my family and friends. Thank you for building a GREAT PRODUCT.
WG, we frequently receive testimonials from consumers advising us of their excellent mileage. Thanks for taking the time to provide this feedback. Our customers ROCK!

I feel great. Comfortable and smooth.
Quiet tire, hopefully it will be durable.
I just got 4 Defener 2 installed today, but obviously, it's a very quiet tire. The noise level is even lower than my old tire, almost bald. On the road, I can only hear the tire noise from the car on my next lane.
Softer ride
Good tires and always can depend on Michelin and Bridgestone tires.
They are great, driving in spring weather you never know what you are going to get and it has been performing well on ice, light snow, heavy rain and dry roads.
Very smooth, quiet and hold on the road very well.
