Review Summary
The Michelin Defender 2 tires offer a mix of positive and negative attributes. Positives include excellent grip and handling, especially in wet and snowy conditions, a smooth and quiet ride, and long tread life and durability. However, some customers have reported decreased fuel efficiency, a rough and bumpy ride quality, and premature wear not meeting the warranty. Overall, the tires provide good traction and handling, but customers should be aware of the potential impact on fuel economy and ride quality.

Long life tires
I had these on my 1998 Grand Marquis, and my 2006 Buick Lucerne, best tires ever. Now I am getting ready to purchase them for my 2023 GMC Acadia. There is not a better tire made in my opinion than Michelan
You have a lot of confidence on wet and icey roads.
So far so goo
Best of the Michelin tires Defender 2.
Superb tires. Quiet ride, good traction rain or snow. And a reputation for great wear. DF2 tires in my opinion is your best bet in value.
hope tires hold up , had aset of these on my 2021 equinox and had 30000 miles on them and would not pass state inspection because od unusual tire wear ! had alignment done and was told alignment was ok ! contacted michelin about this and they said nothing could be done because i was second owner of car !!!!!!
Should be standard on new cars
I have driven my Honda Civic for 10 years. My only complaint was road noise. My new Michelin tires are a godsend. New cars should have premium tires!!
Great Tires
Great set of tires Excellent stopping in dry and wet weather Immediately noticed how quiet the tires are.
Safety
I purchased them for my 2020 Honda CRV. These tires are great in the snow and rain. This was a great choice. I recommend this tires.
Meaty Michelin.
We just got these so we’ve only put a few miles on them tires but they are much quieter than the continental tires we had been buying. They seem to ride nicely as well and look much meatier too. I’m sure I’ll be kicking myself for not paying the extra price for Michelins years ago.
Defender 2 Honda CRV
Very stable in any road conditions. I like the feel & traction in the snow. Very minimal slip on ice. Will buy again in the future
