Smooth ride

So far a smooth ride at all speeds. No pulling or vibrations. Seems to be wearing evenly. Advise getting an alignment with the new tires.

Defender 2 AS 215/60R17 96H BSW, Set of 4 Tires

Tires ride smooth and grip well. Handling of vehicle on all surfaces is excellent. Great tread life. My family feels safe and secure on these tires.

Great value on a great tires

The ride with my defender 2 tires makes driving my car enjoyable again. The gripping and at the same time the smooth ride is amazing. The only complaint I have is the rebate, it states 6-8 weeks. It been over 3 months and I’m still waiting.

Michelin has always been my first choice because I have had them many times over the years. Well known name, great handling, promotions at times which help with the expense.

Wonderful value

These tires are wonderful! Great treadwear, traction, and best of all, they’re extremely quiet. This is why I always trust Michelin products. Thanks for offering such a valuable product.

Solid Performer on Roads

Great all-around tire. Noticeably smoother ride, solid grip on roads, especially during rain and snow. Tread seems to be holding up well, though I try not to be too hard on start/stops regardless. Very pleased with them after 9 months.

Defender 2 tire reviewe

The tires have been on my SUV for 2 weeks and I've driven about 600 miles on them. They grip the road well and braking is good though they are not that quiet on the highway. It's too soon for me to give an accurate estimate about anything else.

Smooth & Quiet Ride

I am a Michelin consumer of many years. Just replaced my set of Cross Climate after driving 56K miles. Purchased the Defender 2. The ride is superb! I feel confident I will be able to drive on them for the full 80k mile warranty.

Excellent Tires

Since having our Michelin Defender tires installed we've felt a remarkable difference in handling performance, comfort on all road conditions and overall better drivability.

Best Tires I've Owned

Incredibly quiet. Great grip and handling. Long lasting treadwear. Good in sun, rain, and snow. Super happy with this tire on my mid-sized SUV.
