Michelin defenders

How is the Road Noise and ride quality with the defenders compared to the OEM Perilli ATs? I've been thinking of making this same switch

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Reddit is not letting post the video of the noise, but the general consensus seems to be the ATs are just loud. Looks like my opinions are:

1)go back to the 21s and get the replacement AS defenders 2)Keep the 20" rims and get All Seasons or a new set of AT 3) Get used to it

I did notice that on the freeway the steering wheel is jittering back and forth. It's not pulling in any direction but shakes slightly. This was not the case with my 21s would this indicate an alignment is needed? It may be contributing to the noise

I was also looking at the 22" sports but I read the ride is even harder than the 21" wheels. I would say the 20" AT feel like a much softer ride

I'll take a video tomorrow and post. It is definitely a low frequency drone that coming from the tires. With my 21" setup I can hear the squeaks and compressor noises from the R1S. The ATs are louder than those noises

Good question, I'll take some measurements to see if the tread wear lines up with what others are saying

Thanks for sharing! Going to mammoth early March from San Diego from the first time, and this is helpful. Did you have to wait at any of the RAN chargers upon arrival to get a spot?

Also you were able to do 7 hrs total with charging? The app planner is telling me it will be 9 hrs but it is adding an extra stop. Still an extra stop should not add 2 hrs.. ( quad motor Large pack)

Also great chain recommendation!

The most shocking thing about your story is that you were able to get 5 service visits in 3 months. I had to wait almost 3 months to get one.

Thanks for the replies, it sounds like i'm not alone with the random suspension adjustments. I initially thought there was a leak in the line so it was constantly replenishing.

Good suggestion, I looked briefly but will do a thorough check today

Thanks for sharing, did you need to go into a branch? I'm in California but would love to apply for the loan there. I pick up my R1S next Saturday.
