Exceeded expectations. 2017 Defenders lasted 138,000 miles (7 years). They still had tread wear left, but we're getting noisy, weather checked and would not hold balancing. Replaced with Defender 2.

Swapped over from a set of Khumo tires that came stock on my 2022 Elantra. These tires have completely changed the driving experience. So quiet and comfy on the road. I wish I would’ve known about these sooner.

Been on my car since April 2024. They handle Quebec roads, so they can be good anywhere. Smooth, quiet and amazing confident feeling when I was caught in heavy rain on two occasions

You know how when you read reviews people say "Wow what a difference these tires make" Put a set of these Defender 2 Michelins on your SUV & then you'll be saying that too! Excellent tires.....well worth the money!!!

I noticed an immediate improvement in the comfort of the ride. I drive on a concrete highway that tends to create a lot of tire noise. It has quieted dramatically since I have had these tires.

I purchased a vehicle with Michelin tires already in place, they performed well in a rainy and hot climate, that’s why I decided to buy another set of four before the cold weather kicks in. Great tires!

Considered other options for replacement on our Buick Enclave. It had Michelin on it and 110% happy, so far, we went back with Michelin. Yes, other options were less expensive, but we didn't want to road noise etc. issues.

Just bought these tires to replace some that were failing at 17000 miles. I hope these will do as good as other Michelin tire in past which when farther that expected

The tire produces a smooth and comfortable ride. I also liked its gripping capability. I tend to make fast turns. Although I have not had the tires for a while, I like its 80K miles warranty.

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!
