Had Michelin Defenders LTX M&S installed on the RX today
How are they? I'm disappointed they don't make them in the size the Highlander needs.
They are not the sexiest tire but it is for a CUV
I have same brand on my truck for 2 years 20,000 km
Smooth bump free ride
They are pretty quiet and never had problem in snow , and being by the lake we don't get a lot of snow , and good on ice
Only driven about 15 km with RX
I have gone to H rated instead of V on the RX, it appears a bit smooth , and quieter then the OEM Michelin tires, they had 95,000 km , they would be OK for at least another 10,000 if it was spring instead of winter coming
They are rated for 115,000 km
It was around $1200 all in ( dam 19" tires) , from Tirecraft, did get the insurance, flat repair, and free rotation
but no nitrogen
If you sign up for their app you get $20 off
Costco did not have Defenders in my size , Tirecraft is only 10 mins away, Costco is 45 mins away
