I am a dedicated Michelin fan. I think they are the absolute BEST tires in the world. I bought a set of Michelin Defender 2 tires for my 2020 GMC Terrain, but unfortunately, I was rear-ended on the freeway with less than 1,000 miles on the new tires. The car was declared "Total Loss" by the insurance company. Now, I have to wear down the tires on my replacement car's off-brand tires so I can put Michelins on it. Only then, will I feel safe and satisfied. Thank you for caring enough to make the best product money can buy!

Had 2 incidents in one month. 1st incident tire only months old, apparently picked up a screw somewhere, no warning and tire blew. Covered under warranty and then a second incident with no nail or any apparent damage to the tire and the low pressure light came on. In seconds the tire ripped along the rim on both sides leaving about 2inches rubber and the rolled off the car. I was on a 4 lane freeway both times and it this could have been disastrous. Thankful no one was injured. I did get to the shoulder of the freeway as my tire rolled past me and rested on the concrete barrier

I love the defender tire Michelin. The tires gripped the road really well . There was a car on a busy road and I didn't see it right away and had to use the brakes fast. The tire really stopped quick. I was glad we had a brand new set of Michelin's on a car.

Buying Michelin Tires goes back many years starting with my family. Paying a higher price for a tire is worth every cent and the warranty on the Michelin Defender 2 goes a long way on the wear and tear on the tires. The Defender 2 is a quite and smooth tire and I am very satisfied with the performance of the tire.

Bought as a replacement for Primacy AS. The Primacy were down to 4/32 by only 33K miles. The defender 2's were louder and not nearly as good in the wet. Also not a fan of the sidewall near the tread. Probably looks good on an SUV, but no so much on a sedan. A bit rugged looking. Exchanged for the Primacy AS again... i'll deal with them not lasting as long for a smoother quieter ride and more confidence in the wet.

These tires are absolute garbage in the rain after 3 months. Whatever changed from previous defenders they should go back to. I tried with 90+ percent treadwear to have them warrantied and the credit offered was insulting. I have used defenders for ages but Michelin has lost me as a customer for life. Bas bad as the OE Hankook tires in civics. Never again. Premium price for awful wet performance.

Needed new tires for my 2019 Chevrolet Traverse. They had Continental tires on them previously. The first and only tire I considered were Michelin tires so I researched SUV tires and chose the Defender 2. What a great looking tire and solid ride and feel.

I has one tire replaced due to dry rot and then a couple weeks after that the rest of the set (3) I was so happy how my car drove I bought the Lincoln town car used and these new tires made the car drive so much better like driving on butter I had another Lincoln and it drove the same with Michelin tires the defender 2 are great tires

I replaced the factory Michelon's on my 2015 HONDA Odyssey with a new set of the same tire. Why change what has worked so well for the last 10 years! I couldn't be more pleased. They improved the handling of the vehicle...I had 65K on the last set...and the new set is smooth and quiet. I definitely will buy again.

Great tires that grip better than any All Season I've ever owned. Wet (rain) or dry pavement, these tires hug the road like the best of them. I'd give them 5 stars, except I find them to be a little louder past 70km/h than I'd like… they have a slight buzz depending on the speed at which you're rolling which gets higher pitched and louder the faster you go. I stalled on a 2021 Mazda CX-5.
