  • Michelin Defender Tire for Subaru Outback
I've had Defender 99T's on my Subaru Outback for 6 yrs. Had to replace one due to unrepairable puncture. The Defenders have performed well, and wear like iron; originals have 45,000 mi on them and still have 6/32 inch tread (new tire tread depth = 10/32). I do rotate every 5K and insure cold inflation pressures are properly maintained at 32 psi. ... show more

  • Tires that last!
Size: 235/55R17 99H
I have tried any number of different tires over the past 49 years of driving. I have logged close to 2 million miles, driving personal and rental cars. Michelin tires are just a cut above the others! I get more miles out of a set of Michelin’s, than I have any other tire. This particular model has been exceptional when it comes to driving in the rain and the mileage I get out of them. ... show more

  • Comfortable and Quiet Ride
Had four of these tires installed on my Chevy Traverse, I switched from Yokohama Geola data. Mastercraft was cheaper, but seeing Cooper makes them I tried them out. Did n’t get me wrong Yoko’s are a nice tire as well but cost more. Very comfortable ride, the road noise from the tires was practically gone. Even the wife mentioned the vehicle seemed better with the change. ... show more

  • Highly rated by Consumer Reports Magazine.
Size: 215/55R17 94H
Difficult to rate the mileage considering we've only had them 3 weeks. So far so good.

  • Safe well made tire.
I put these on my Subaru Forrester. Consumer Reports rated them high. I just finished a 1000 mile drive this week on them in rain, snow, and slush, and dry pavement. Solid performance and a safe tire in all conditions I saw. I'd definitely buy them again next time.

  • Did not last 6 months
Size: 215/55R17 94H
Bought two, one blew out in 2 weeks, the other one blew our in under six months. There were no holes or punctures in the tires. I believe they were old and dry rotted, although they looked new.
