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

I've never had a full set of brand new Michelin tires before. They are great. Good grip of the road and v Ty quiet.

I HAVE USED MICHELIN TIRES FOR A LONG TIME BECAUSE I THINK THEY ARE THE BEST TIRE ON THE MARKET+++I HAVE RESEARCHED TO MY COMFORT.

Defender 2 design will provide excellent traction, durability and grip! Excited for the long-term wear too.

Wanted tires that would last long-term and despite the increased "noise" they handle great year round

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....

I recently had the Defender 2 tires installed. They ride is comfortable, handling and response are superb. They are my second set of tires for the Toyota RAV4

This is my second set of these tires. Was very pleased with the first set. Price was a bit high, but I have always gotten good service out of Michelin tires.

I immediately noticed a better ride quality. We drove the same route and bumps which jarred us before were smooth. I only put Michelin tires on our vehicles and have told family members to do the same.

The tires have been fantastic. Nice smooth ride and I feel very safe in the car. These tires were the right selection for what I wanted on my small SUV.
