Great experience

We had a great experience other than our original install date was cancelled, but they were able to get us in first thing the next morning. The gentleman that checked us in was very helpful and the installer did an excellent job! I am still waiting for the refund on the installation charge since our original appointment was cancelled and we were then charged again with the second appointment, so hopefully that will show up soon on my credit card app.

Awesome tire .

I have had Michelin on everything i have owned the last 35 years. They usually Crack on the sides before they ever wear out . They are awesome . They are so smooth it's like riding on a cloud . Just put a set on my Chevy Silverado . Simply the best highway tire available.

New shoes

Tires seem quiet and car handles well. Traction rating disappointing. Trade off for high milage rating. Will see how they ride at EOL.(Rubber gets harder with age)

A longevity tire above all else. Happy with them.

The defender 2 , features long mileage and durability above all else, it's ok at other stuff, if looking for high performance, or great winter or rain tires, super quiet, super plush ride, this is not it, it's ok at that, but not stellar. This a an 80k tire, harder rubber, and will be good for the rough roads I travel to work. If longevity is what you are after, with good but not great manners, it's a good fit. If you expect high performance, stellar rain performance, or super plush ride, you will not like this tire. Others fill that roll, yet will not last as long, it's all about what compromises you wish for. Happy with them for what they are. Happy with Walmart service as well, great group of people.

Plush and soft

Those tires are not supporting the character of a BMW. They feel very plush, no feedback from the road, and just way too soft. Will not buy them again. I drove over 4000 miles in long distance rides. When arrived we feel still swimming. I had the suspicion checked, which according to BMW is good.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the Defender 2 tires did not meet your expectations for handling and road feel. The Defender 2 is designed to prioritize comfort, a quiet ride and long-lasting performance, which can result in a softer feel compared to more performance-focused tires. We recommend speaking with your authorized tire dealer about options better suited to your preferences. You may also contact our Consumer Care team at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST) for further assistance.
