Michelin Defender LTX Platinum 

These were great tires, they lasted about 53k miles, and would have gone longer. However, one of my rear tires, got two nails in it. One of the nails was lodged in, near the sidewall. My mechanic tried to save the tire, but it popped, unfortunately. I drive a Rear-Wheel Drive, manual transmission, 3rd gen 4runner. Thus, I cannot truly evaluate the "high performance" aspect, of this tire, like a sports car owner. I cannot test the extreme dry traction, etc. Nevertheless, these tires were excellent on my SUV.

They are a very confident tire, in both dry and wet conditions. They provided all of the grip, stability, ride comfort, and durability, that I hoped for. I also had the Kumho Solus KR21 before this one, (another great tire). The KR21, was the tire, that got me into Kumho tires. At this price point, you are getting a very good, all-around tire, that has no weaknesses, (besides strong ice/winter conditions). I have never driven my car in rough Winter weather, or a snowstorm, so I cannot speak on that.

The Kumho TA11 provides good grip, and it has a nice, comfy ride. It is not a loud tire either. The tire is very stable, and it lasts a very long time, without failing, or deforming. (In my experience). The tire inspires confidence. I trust this tire. It did not let me down, even in heavy rainstorms, where other cars were hydroplaning. I lived in Oregon with these tires, and they did well in rain. I also lived in Socal, with these tires. When Socal highways, get heavy rain, they can be very treacherous. Since these roads were not designed to expel heavy rain. Large, hazardous puddles develop, and your car must drive through them, at angles, and they can be very dangerous. Nevertheless, I was confident with the Kumho TA11, it handled every condition that I threw at it. These are excellent tires, and I am buying another set right now, as I type this review. This is a great product. I am a repeat customer!

This is the second set of this tire I've bought for my work truck. I do not go easy on that vehicle at all. I haul heavy stuff. I drive the truck through anything. These tires are amazingly quiet for being a value tire. They wear evenly even on my neglected truck. The last set I had I think got about 50k miles on them before i swapped them. They probably had some more life left, but I had 4 plugs in 3 tires and 2 were no longer holding air so I found it to be time. We just had flooding rain and new, these tires hydroplane almost ZERO. Very sold and predictable tire for not a pile of dollars. I recommend this tire a lot personally to friends. Will buy again if they're still available in 18-20 months when I wear these out.

These were replacement tires for our project Volvo 245. The were preceded by Cooper tires that must have been made from recycled concrete, hard riding, noisy, bad in the wet and dry, just awful. We had used Kumho Solis on a previous car and found the price/performance ratio pretty well dialed in-especially for an old Volvo. These are quiet, compliant and good on the rain. We live in Charleston so rain is almost a daily thing in the summer afternoons.

Overall I recommend these. Don't expect the longevity or handling of some more premium brands, but if you are an easy going or average driver these are great. We do have Pirelli's and Continentals on our other 2 vehicles so we are not just bottom feeders BTW.

I bought these for sons car, he commutes to college, a one hour drive each way 3 days a week. Never did he have any problems getting to school. The tires ride nice, handle very well and give great traction in all conditions. His vehicle is a light weigh, low powered commuter car, so no high performance testing was done. We are very pleased with the tire.

Don't get me wrong, these are great tires, but not the best. They're cheap, so for the price I'd say they're great, but again, they're cheap. While they do have FANTASTIC rain performance and a very smooth ride and excellent dry grip , they are a bit noisy and the steering response isnt the best. (Those are the two things Im concerned about when I get tires). I probably would't buy these tires again, it's not because I hate them, they're great tires (for the price) it's just that at the time I was trying to budget because I'm saving up money for a house. Now I'm much better off financially and would get better tires next time. Bur if you want the cheapest tire possible but want a great tire, these are for you! If you're expecting a great tire and budget isn't an issue, get a set of Michelin Defenders (what ill be getting next).

For a cheap compact car tire, these are by far the best I have ever purchased. The treadwear is amazing. At nearly 31k miles, the tires are still at ~75% tread remaining. They handle well in rain during cornering and braking, but can break traction on acceleration. Hydroplaning has not been an issue - these track straight. Road noise does not exist with these tires. I am extremely pleased.

i have mounted these 4 tires on my 2016 Mazda CX-5 and I am pleased with the performance after 1500 miles. so far used 1500 miles , no road noise compared my previous michelen tires. very comfortable to ride in both city and highway. i can recommended without issues. actually i just bought 4 tires like this brand for my 2014 ford fiesta

I'm extremely pleased with these tires! The car turns easier than my old set of tires and they ride smooth. The grip on the road is really good, though I haven't pushed it. I actually mounted these tires myself, at home. They were all well balanced and required very little wheel weights. I hope I can get most of the mileage out of them as most manufacturers way overstate the mileage. (I drive conservatively and rotate my tires religiously) Super happy and would buy these again!

Good reliable tire. Excellent ride

Great tire with exceptional treadwear. We tow the vehicle behind our RV. Does great and the tires don't wear out like other brands.

Terrific tire and a great price, I have paid twice as much for tires that wore much faster, right at the full 75k now, will need to be replacing soon. It also says something about my Nissan, 145k and never had an alignment done and never have had any uneven tire wear.

Purchased tires in 6/2022 I drive mostly all highway I have 89,000 miles on these tires. Even wearing great traction low road noise and still some life left. Will probably be 100,000 miles before I change them
Great purchase for a commuter
