    This is the new replacement for the Michelin MS2's.

    It's basically the same tire but with an updated tread compound. Supposed to be slightly better in snow/wet conditions. So far, after about 1000 miles, I can't even tell a difference from my old MS2's. Feels like the same tire.

    This is the same pic- just different exposures.

    Dressed with Duragloss #253 Tire and Rubber Mat dressing.

    I've always used Meguiar's High gloss Endurance tire shine and can't find any that beats it.

    Missing My Last Tacoma --- Had 11 Toyota trucks in the past and many other Toyota cars too.
    ^^^ ... Probably my next set of tires (Michelin Defender's) ... thanks for the pics in the post.

    I love Michelin tires since I don't off-road.
