I had to replace original Michelin tires they wore with only 21000 miles with defender2 tires and I find the ride to be very rough. The place I brought tires from said it’s the road and not the tire balance iam very disappointed in the ride I drive a lincoln

The stock 265/75 R16 BF Goodrich Rugged Trail 114T that came new on my Nissan Frontier Nismo are the fastest wearing tires I have ever owned. My vehicle sits in the garage when not in use so the tires even stay nice and dry when not in use. I currently have 27000 miles on them and they are already almost bald. Also I'm 54 years old and a very conservative driver so if they wear fast the way I use them I promise you they will wear fast for you also.

I have had these tires for 2 and half years and have had no issues. I live in the North and I am also an avid outdoorsman. I have had my 03 Ram in fields, rough trails, snow, and the highway. They aren't the greatest off road tire but they are adequate and they are smooth and quiet on the highway. I have about 25000 miles on them and would expect about another 25000 out of them.

We purchased the Michelin Defender 2 tires for our SUV in the spring of 2025 and they have exceeded our expectations. They are fantastic in all conditions (except snow, havent had that to try yet) and they handle great. Not only that, but they are quiet and provide a comfortable ride. I am looking forward to using these tires happily for many years to come. Oh, the braking performance is very solid as well. We purchased 235/60/18 for our 2020 Honda Ridgeline.

These tires are OEM on my 2014 F150 Supercab 4x4 XLT long bed truck which has the HD package. I use the truck about 1/2 the time towing a travel trailer. I do not go off-roading. I have used it to back up a rain slick grassy hill into my camping site at home football games. They are not noisy, since the tread design isn't super aggressive. After 42k miles, the tread is still in great shape. Just from tread wear, I'd say I have another 25k + miles left before I have to replace these. At this point, I will the same or similar BF Goodrich tire.

This tire came on my 2012 F-350 4x4 dually. I've towed my 20K lb camper more than 13K miles and driven unloaded more than 20k miles. The tires handle excellent on wet, dry, snow and dirt. I have not been on ice or mud. They dig in sand. I am very pleased with the tires, but I am currently searching for a new set as they are completely worn out. Tires are worn pretty evenly and have had normal rotations.

Horrible tire. 1st set on F-150 replaced under warranty at 23,000 miles due to extensive craking between the treads and at top of sidewall. Replacement set now has even worse cracking between treads and on sidewalls after an addtional 37,000 miles. Its a shame that I now have to replace these tires due to cracking when they still have plenty of tread left.

I purchased a set of Defender 2 tires for my Ford Flex 10/9/24. The vehicle is AWD and was aligned shortly thereafter. Since purchased these tires, primarily the rear 2, have been extremely loud. The Defenders I previously had on this vechicle never displayed this obnoxious behavior and I was very satisfied with them. Would not consider purchasing these tires again.

These tires are great! I use them for 65 miles everyday through the center of the Pennsylvania snowbelt. Great traction and I hardly ever use 4-wheel drive! I'm on my third set now and have averaged about 55,000 miles before replacing. I didn't like the way the new tread pattern looked but it has made a big improvement on snow covered road driving.

These are the best tires I have ever owned for tread life. I am 61 years old, have owned a lot of tires my Friends. I Bought a new 2008 Ford F-150 4x4 with these tires installed. I now have 80,000 miles on them!! Had no issues in the snow here in Washington state. I have never had a flat either. I am now retired and travel to Florida in the Winter and drive back and forth. My view of these tires is very good, yes I recommend them.
