Michelin Defender2 - 225/55R18 98V Tire

Highest performance and best ride I have ever had from a Lt truck tire.  Improves fuel economy by over one mpg as well.

Even improves fuel economy

Bought the Defender 2 based on the durability, handling, and performance of the tires.  Added bonus they look great on the SUV.

Nice features.

Too early to tell how well though do but what I will tell you they look more substantial than the BFGoodrich tires that I replaced.

First set of replacement tires@ 46,125 miles

The Defender 2 tires are better than the OEM tires, better ride (smoother) and quieter (minimal road noise).

Performance

Excellent tires , very quiet and dependable , haven't put a lot of k's on but very confident they will go the distance !

I purchased a new set of 4 Michelin tires in late May 2025 and at this point I am more that satisfied with so far with my purchase.

Michelin Tires Purchase

Just got my all 4 tires replaced and my car feels brand new. Looking forward to see how well these preform but so far I am happy.

Feels great to drive

Excellent tires have purchase both summer and winter Michelin tires and have been very happy with product.

Great tires

These are quiet riding and reliable tires with toughness and a good appearance. I wouldn't purchase any other brand of tires for my Honda.

Best reliable tires-mechanics 1st Choice

Michelin has always been good and these don’t disappoint a bit more rough ride than Yokozuna’s but all in all good price for these tires.

I am very disappointed with the Michelin Defender 2.  The 4 tires are rated for 80,000 miles.  However, I am experiencing uneven wear (feathering) on al 4 tires at 12,000 miles.  I have documentation to prove I have been aligning my tires at Firestone since the tires were purchased new.  The shocks and struts are new on my vehicle.  However, I am experiencing noisy tires, and the roads feel bumpy all the time.

Poor Reliability

I have had Michelin on everything i have owned the last 35 years.  They usually Crack on the sides before they ever wear out . They are awesome . They are so smooth it's like riding on a cloud . Just put a set on my Chevy Silverado . Simply the best highway tire available.
