The Michelin Defender 2 tires are wonderful, as well as dependable tires for a passenger car. The confidence of having the needed traction in all types of weather is an important factor.

Great tires. Nice and quiet, I don't hear road noise in the cabin of my Honda Odyssey even on the freeway. Have a nice look and made with solid materials. Would highly recommend.

Great looking with a very smooth ride. Tread life looks to be exceptional. Chose these tires after extensive research on-line and conversations with current owners!

Just got my tires today, for my 2021 Honda CRV. They have made all the difference in the ride. I still had the original tires on my car with only 25K miles. I had no ideal they had gotten so bad. I wish I had purchased the Defender 2 years ago.

I have purchased 3 sets Defenders over the past year for my wife’s car and my daughter’s and mine. Had Uniroyal prior and the Michelins are far superior. Ride quality cannot be better or matched. Love these tires!

We have our tires on a Chrysler Pacifica and we travel a lot. These tires are very quiet and smooth which is our primary concern. Very happy with them,

Bought as a replacement for Primacy AS. The Primacy were down to 4/32 by only 33K miles. The defender 2's were louder and not nearly as good in the wet. Also not a fan of the sidewall near the tread. Probably looks good on an SUV, but no so much on a sedan. A bit rugged looking. Exchanged for the Primacy AS again... i'll deal with them not lasting as long for a smoother quieter ride and more confidence in the wet.

The car came with Primacy Tour A/S tires. The car handled great and had a great ride - fun to drive. These tires are terrible. I made a huge mistake buying them because of my long history of purchasing only Michelin tires. They were the Michelins recommended by a tire dealer I trust. As soon as I drove away with these tires, it was like the car that was so much fun to drive had gone "numb." The dealer tried to fix the issue, but the conclusion seems to be that the Defender tires were a bad match for the car.

I purchased a set of Defender 2 tires for my Ford Flex 10/9/24. The vehicle is AWD and was aligned shortly thereafter. Since purchased these tires, primarily the rear 2, have been extremely loud. The Defenders I previously had on this vechicle never displayed this obnoxious behavior and I was very satisfied with them. Would not consider purchasing these tires again.

I always buy Michelin tires for my travel and performance vehicles. They are tough, dependable and long lasting. This is the second set of Michelin tires I have purchased for the Explorer. The first set had shorter stopping numbers than the Defender, but I went with these based on the dealer recommendation. Plus these are 80k mile tires. I have not driven them in the rain to test stopping distance due to the recent drought in Texas. But I can say they stand up to the 100+ heat at highway speeds. I highly recommend Michelin tires.
