About this item
Product details
Before purchasing tires, make sure to use our Tire Finder to select the right fit for your vehicle.
Get peace of mind to keep you in drive. The Michelin Defender2 all-season tire is our longest-lasting tire for miles of uncompromised safety performance – because life never stops moving.
We redesigned the Defender2 tire to meet the needs of today's larger, more powerful vehicles. The Michelin Defender2 tire now offers the increased tread life that today's families expect. Engineered to outlast, the Defender2 tire can deliver 2 years of additional tread life compared to three leading competitive tires, outlasting them by up to 25,000 miles on a treadwear test.[1]
This durable tire features locking 3-D sipes that provide extra grip from hundreds of biting edges. That extra grip translates to stopping distances that are better than three leading competitive tires on wet and dry pavement.[2] The Defender 2 tire is designed with MaxTouch 2.0 technology to offer a smooth ride that is as comfortably quiet as your first mile.
Because performance and safety matter to you, Michelin makes tires to last and backs the Michelin Defender2 tire with an 80,000-mile manufacturer's treadwear limited warranty[3] in addition to the 6-year standard manufacturer's limited warranty.[4] Before purchasing tires, make sure to use our Tire Finder to select the right fit for your vehicle.

Nothing but Michelins
I have been driving Michelin tires exclusively for more than 40 years with nothing but praise for their quality and performance. So it made this choice of tire purchase pretty simple. We now have several thousand miles on this set of tires and they are performing exactly as expected.

Excellent tire, but quite pricey
Great tire for my Subaru Outback. Performance is as expected. Good traction and braking. Cornering is adequate, but I haven't really pushed it anywhere close to the limit. It is not as quiet as I expected, but I guss that is the price I pay for treadlife.
