Straight away, I'm impressed with these tires. It's far too soon to make any judgement in terms of longevity, but the ride quality and the quietness is superb.

I bought four of the Defender 2 tires and will be putting them on for the third summer season within the next two weeks. They are still in perfect shape with lots of seasons left in them!

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!

Tires are noisy. They do not grip well in wet conditions. Was debating between the Michelins and Contenentals LX 25's. Have the Contenentals on 2 other vehicles and they are a much better tire. Wish I wouldn't have purchased these tires

I researched tires for my 2013 Mazda3 and came to the many good reviews for the Defender 2. After driving around town, I can feel the difference between my OEM tires and the Defender 2. Definitely a lot less noise!

I like Michelin tires to be honest. They cost a little more but seem to last longer. I have never done a TCO calculation but ai would guess the average cost per year is similar to cheaper tires and they come with better quality and performance.

I’ve always appreciated the durability, performance, and comfortable ride that Michelin tires provide…certainly not my first purchase and definitely won’t be my last!

I just got 4 Defener 2 installed today, but obviously, it's a very quiet tire. The noise level is even lower than my old tire, almost bald. On the road, I can only hear the tire noise from the car on my next lane.

I am very pleased with my new tires. Mavis Tire did not have my order. They seem disorganized. But they found what I wanted and seemed to install tires correctly.

I bought the original set about a year and a half ago, but they wore down a little quicker than I thought about 60K, I contacted Michelin and they stood by their warranty and reimbursed me a percentage, so I bought another set, very happy with them
