Excellent Product

I have a Ford F150 King Ranch, and I bought this truck with 40K miles and the original tires. I now have 111,000 miles on it and still have tread left. Winter is around the corner, and I figured its time, so I have just bought a new set of the exact same tires and am expecting them to last another 100K+ miles. These tires are the best ever!! <3 my tires:)

Best You Can Put on Your Pickup

My 2004 F150 is on its 2nd set. The first set went over 100,000 and my 2nd set has 75,000 and still has good life left. The Michelins are the only replacement tires that balanced out smooth and road very quiet. The long wear is a great bonus! Purchased 2015.

Honest Review for Michelin Defender 2

I’ve driven about 30,000 miles on these tires, and while tread life and traction are excellent, the noise is absolutely unbearable. From day one, the road noise has been loud, droning, and constant — it doesn’t matter if I’m on a smooth highway, backroad, or city street. The sound fills the cabin and never stops. They’ve worn evenly and still have tons of tread left, but I honestly can’t take it anymore. Nobody wants to ride with me and it gives my daughter instant headaches. For a tire that’s marketed as quiet, this has been the complete opposite experience.

Amazing tires

I have a lifted Ford F150 and I had a big mud tires and it was a ROUGH and LOUD ride. I had the Michelin Defenders installed today and it’s like a completely different truck. It rides SO MUCH better and quiet it’s hard to believe. I don’t write a lot of reviews, but these tires are truly amazing and deserve a five star review.

Verified Purchase

Great tire replacement service

The agent was knowledgeable, ordered my "special order tires", called when they arrived and set up an appointment, and on the day installed had the work done in about an hour and half. Very courteous and helpful with additional information I might need. I'm totally satisfied with the service and price.

Best ever all around performance, period.

Great all around performance from these Defender LTX M/S2 tires. As always, Michelin tires are always the best choice in all categories that matter. They consistently deliver excellent traction, handling and comfort all while providing the longest durability I’ve ever experienced. I’ve been driving for well over fifty years and almost all of those have been on Michelin tires. When purchasing new vehicles which are not factory equipped with Michelin tires, I’ve seen the performance from other manufacturers drop off significantly. In those cases I’ve opted to replace those tires over to Michelin’s at the earliest possible time. I only choose Michelin tires for all of my family vehicles because they have always been the best performing brand I’ve ever experienced.

New tires prior customer

I've purchased Michelin tires previously and I've been very pleased with the durability performance and handling. The tires have produced a very smooth ride. Please note the tires I'm reviewing are based on previous purchases not these particular tires.

Incredible all around performance

I drove 102,000 miles on my previous set, rotated every 10k, pushed them a bit further than I should have, down to 2/32 at best. I will never buy anything other than these tires, just replaced the OEM Bridgestones on my 2021 Grand Cherokee L, 63,000 on those. I’m hoping for 90k to 100k from the Defender M/S2 that I just put on. Anyone saying these tires are loud has vehicle issues. New Michelins compared to the roar from OEM Bridgestone is like the difference between a football stadium when they score, to a night in the Arizona desert.

Not recommended for a luxury suv.

I regret purchasing these tires. Their ride is too hard and noisy. There is excess molding process flaps of rubber on two tires which should have been trimmed off at the factory. The Latitude Touring HP is a much better choice for a 2018 Lexus GX 460. I fell ill and didn't have the opportunity to ask for other tires within the Michelin allotted time period.

Great ride!

The Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 is a strong all-season tire that delivers a quiet, comfortable ride with excellent traction in both dry and wet conditions. It’s known for long tread life, stable handling, and dependable braking, making it a great choice for daily driving, highway miles, and light weather. While it’s not built for heavy off-roading or deep snow, it performs reliably in most everyday situations. Overall, it’s a high-quality, durable tire that offers strong value and confidence on the road.
