Michelin Defender 2 A WINNER!!
Purchased 4 Defender 2 tires in the spring of 2023 for a 2020 Mazda CX5. Very satisfied with the tires. These are being used mostly for highway driving in the spring/summer and fall. I have another set of rims and tires for winter driving. They don't seem to have any wear and they are quiet on the highway. Handling is excellent, as I would expect from a Michelin tire. I would definitely recommend these tires to anyone looking for new tires.
Defender on Volvos
Installed the defender on our XC70 ‘04 & XC90 ‘08. So far no complaints. Balanced nicely. Good ride. Ran in heavy rain in the XC90 and liked the performance, by the way XC90 size 255/50 19 so on the wider size. I will not be running them in winter as have separate snows.
Verified Purchase
This's my first time buying tires online from Walmart. I chosen Michelin defender2 for my 2025 toyota corolla cross for first time replacement from original toyota tires. It's suitable for all seasons and especially winter. I trusted Michelin brand. This tires are quiet and good stopping. I hope it'll be excellent for snowing and not slippery wherever i go. I researched so many tires before buying. I hopefully i chosen right tires for my car. Auto care center of Walmart is excellent service they're fast. I even arrived there 1 hour ahead of my appointment time. They're available to do it quickly and finished it within 30 min while i was still shopping. They texted me that my car was ready for pickup. Awesome! guys.
