michelinman.com

I bought Michelin Defenders in summer of 2023

Great features. Superb performance on ice and snow

Feel such a difference on my first drive!

So far they feel great on my first drive with them.

Just bought these again last set lasted 10 years, I always buy Michelin tires.

Great performance

Purchase my first set in 2019 and now 2nd set in December 2024

2nd set of Defender tires 80,000

GREAT

BEST TIRES YOU CAN BUY for quiet, smooth ride and superior safety

GREAT TIRE.  i USE THESE EXCLUSIVELY ON ALL MY VEHICLES

My son recommended these tires, and they are a great smooth ride.

Great Ride

Michelin Defender 2 tires ride very smoothly

Smooth Ride

I am very disappointed with the Michelin Defender 2.  The 4 tires are rated for 80,000 miles.  However, I am experiencing uneven wear (feathering) on al 4 tires at 12,000 miles.  I have documentation to prove I have been aligning my tires at Firestone since the tires were purchased new.  The shocks and struts are new on my vehicle.  However, I am experiencing noisy tires, and the roads feel bumpy all the time.

Poor Reliability

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 235/40R19/XL(Extra Load): 
I recently switched to the Michelin Defender 2 tires from the Primacy MXM4s (~5 years, 45k miles). While I've only driven a single, nearly 200-mile trip, the difference in performance is quite noticeable.

The most positive aspect is the improved traction and control. The torque transfer feels much better, leading to a more responsive acceleration compared to the Primacy tires.

The trade-off, however, is the noticeable increase in road noise, particularly at speeds around 80. It's a significant difference compared to the quieter Primacy experience. 

I am hopeful that the enhanced durability and potential tread life (80k miles company warranty) will ultimately make the Defender 2 a worthwhile change.
