About this item
Product details
Peace of mind to keep you in drive. The Michelin Defender2 all-season tire is our longest-lasting tire for miles of uncompromised safety performance – because life never stops moving. We completely redesigned the Michelin Defender2 tire to meet the needs of today's larger and more powerful vehicles. The Michelin Defender2 tire now offers the increased tread life that today's families expect. Engineered to outlast, the Michelin Defender2 tire can deliver 2 years of additional tread life compared to three leading competitive tires, outlasting them by up to 25,000 miles on a treadwear test.[1]
Bring confidence to your drive with the all-season Michelin Defender2 tire. This durable tire features Locking 3-D Sipes that provide extra grip from hundreds of biting edges. That extra grip translates to stopping distances that are better than three leading competitive tires on wet and dry pavement.[2]
Plus, the Michelin Defender 2 tire is designed with MaxTouch 2.0 technology to offer a smooth ride that is as comfortably quiet as your first mile. Because performance and safety matter to you, Michelin makes tires to last and backs the Michelin Defender2 tire with an 80,000-mile manufacturer's treadwear limited warranty[3] in addition to the 6-year standard manufacturer's limited warranty.[4]
[1] Based on U.S. Department of Transportation Average Annual Miles per driver (13,500 miles) and Desrosiers Automotive Consultants' estimate of annual average kilometers driven in Canada (23,000 km), and on a treadwear test using tires in size 225/65R17 on 2021 Toyota RAV4s. Actual on-road results may vary.
[2] Based on internal wet braking tests from 50 MPH and internal dry braking tests from 60 MPH using tires in size 225/65R17 on a 2021 Toyota RAV4, versus the following competitors. Actual on-road results may vary.
[3] Excludes DOT-approved competition tires (e.g., MICHELIN Pilot Sport Cup tires) and Original Equipment tires starting with the 2018 model year. Mileage warranties vary by tire line.
[4] All MICHELIN tires have a Standard Manufacturer's Limited Warranty which covers defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the original usable tread, or for 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever occurs first.
- Our longest lasting tire now lasts even longer. Michelin Defender2 is completely redesigned to meet the needs of modern vehicles. It offers the increased tread life that today's families expect on their passenger cars and CUVs.

I love these tires. This is my second set of these tires and if I have the same SUV when I need another set, I will be buying them again.

I like this newer version better than the older defender ltx series. I'll be replacing the other 3 older tires to the newer version soon. Would highly recommend.
