5 out of 5 stars review

I love the tires. It snowed about 6 inches and didn’t have any trouble at all. The tires are very quiet and the ride is very smooth. I’m getting ready to purchase another set for my other vehicle.

Good in snow.

It's too soon to comment on durability however with the recent heavy snow falls in Toronto, the Defender 2 tires were the best performing all season tires we have had to date.

Maybe I am missing something

Not sure where the outstanding ride quality reviews come from. Placed these on a Kia Telluride and the ride quality is noticeably rougher. The vehicle always appears to sway back and forth and you feel every bump.

Better Control and Quieter

With these tires, there is less road noise, the ride is smoother, and it seems that the steering is more precise.

Just what I expected.

Would be nice if you list Puerto Rico in your drop down for registration. Have to use my home state of Idaho.

Defender 2 Great

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.

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,

Rain and light snow handling big win plus quite

While my MPG did drop about 2 miles per gallon from my "other" former tires, handling especially in the rain big (huge) improvement..... Now, plus side a little more quite than brand x.... so Safety and quietness always wins in my book....

Great handling

I love these tires! I notice a big difference in handling going around curves. The tires are silent and comfortable, which I consider important since I'm a Uber driver.
