Great tires for my vehicle. Great traction on the roadway.

Great braking, cornering, traction and treadwear.

They make my car feel like a brand new car. Beautiful ride, handles the road very well.

The ride is so smooth and excellent handling

Great smooth and quiet ride initially. I have high hopes for the future!

So far it has been a great riding and performing tire as Michelin has been in the past.

Purchased three weeks ago. They ride Smooth and quietly. Gas mileage is the same. Did not worsen. Wet braking, dry braking both good but good brakes and driving at reasonable speeds in a rain storm has more to with braking than new tires.

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 purchased a set of these tires a month ago. They do not ride smooth and they are noisy. They sound like I am driving a pick up truck with off road tires.

Without a doubt in my mind, the best overall tire for performance, noise levels, ability to hold the road at any speed in any kind of weather, comfort and handling.....cost is excellent for such an amazingly quiet and comfortable ride.
