When it comes to safe, smooth driving, trust the Michelin Defender 2 Tire. This all-season tire has been rigorously tested for both safety and longevity, proving more durable than comparable tire models with a tread life 25,000 miles longer. On average, that’s another two years of tread life you’ll enjoy. And like all Michelin tires, the Defender 2 tire is engineered for safety and control, so you can drive easy knowing these tires will help keep your vehicle safe.
The M+S symbol differentiates an All-Season tire from a Summer only tire. While rated for light snow, they will not match a winter tire for traction or stopping distance on snow and ice.
