Good Quality

I used this tire on my '09 Honda Accord for years. The last set lasted 6+ years. I average 11,000-13,000 miles a year. Wore great and evenly with regular rotations and alignments. Now I'm getting them for my '18 Accord. I really like the quality of this tire.

Smooth and quiet

These tires have changed the way my 25 Crosstrek drives. I love how smooth and quiet my ride is now. Have not had a chance to test on wet roads yet. But I would certainly recommend these tires. I have always gone with Michelin on all of my vehicles and the Defender 2 did not disappoint.

looks like there's a new sheriff in town

Thought I had one of the best trucks on th market and would have too. It wirked as hard as I did if not harder, did all I asked and more. If I was tired or to tired to drive some how we both made it home. Well winter was comming fast and old girl needed a set of shoes before sniw and had heard how snow tires made all the difference in the world. Well I alredy had one of the best trucks, could tires help? NAW. Well I talked to my tire store customer care and went with the X ice just to make sure I wasnt missing anything. Well I now am the proud owner of the single best truck in these united states. Should name a hi way after it. Winter is no mach for this truck with those tires on it. No sir.

Quiet and Smooth Ride

I purchased these tires for my VW bug. I wanted a quiet tire and a smooth ride as my can is small and if the wrong tire is purchased it can be noisy. These tires are just what I wanted. They are quiet and give a smooth ride. I recommend them highly!

2nd set of Defenders--excellent tires

We replaced the Michelin Latitude tires on our 2010 Acura MDX with Defender LTX tires last year and have been pleased with the ride and performance. We just purchased a second set of Defender 2 tires for our 2013 Acura TSX wagon to replace a set of IronMan tires that were failing at 18k miles. What a difference! The improvement in ride quality and fuel economy is noticeable. I drive over 400 miles a week and these tires are rated for 80k miles--I expect to have them for a long time.

Driving in northern New ...

Driving in northern New England can be treacherous in the Winter with all the ice, black ice and snow. Over the years I have had many snow/ice tires and this one is superior in both ice and snow conditions and even in the Spring during mud season. These tires are great.

MUCH BETTER THEN THE X-ICE XI2'S

i got a set of this tires for my 2006 cobalt LS manual 5sp(no traction control or stability control thank goodness!!!) and i couldn't believe how well they did in every winter condition mother nature could throw at me here in alaska. great tread life because i've used them for 5 season but this year i had to use them as my summer tires since my summer tires were worn out now after 5 years and they did very well as a summer tire. being in the warmer weather and dry pavement for a whole summer they didnt do as well in the winter i believe it has something to do with the compound and the warmer pavement driving. the only perk i didnt like but it was expected was the but on the melting ice it did ok but not as well as like studs since studs dig instead of grab the surface of the terrain and on melted ice there isn't much to grab a hold to. i've converted to the x-ice xi2's this year and i was a bit disappointed they aren't as good on the deep/shallow/packed snow as the original x-ice's but still a good tire....i've had yet to see how the newer x-ice xi2's on the melting ice but from what i've learned about them they should do better then the x-ice's.

Happy Customer

We have had Michelin Defender tires before and loved them. They rode nice and smooth on our 2011 Toyota Sienna. Then we hit a nail on the sidewall and our dealer was out of Defenders. We regret putting other tires on. Just put our 3rd new set of Defenders on and happy.

I love my snow & ice tires!!

I love my Michelin Tires, used them two winters and kept them on for the rainy spring. I live in PA with lots of hills and traffic and need a secure tire. I also travel on the turnpike through the snow belt weekly and these are great in snow, ice and rain!! I have no negative remarks for this tire. It meets all my expectations plus!

Best tire I've ever owned

My 2014 Subaru came with Continental tires that only endured for a little over 15k miles. I immediately put on the Defender tire in 2016. I have been going strong for over eight years and close to 90k miles on them. I'm just about due for my next set and you can rest assured that I'll be getting some Defender 2's.
