Peace of mind to keep you in drive: the Michelin Defender2 225/50R17 is an all-season tire and Michelin's longest-lasting tire for miles of uncompromised safety performance, because life never stops moving. Completely redesigned to meet the needs of today's larger and more powerful vehicles, the Defender2 now offers the increased tread life that today's families expect. Engineered to outlast, it 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. Locking 3-D Sipes provide extra grip from hundreds of biting edges, which translates to stopping distances better than three leading competitive tires on wet and dry pavement, and MaxTouch 2.0 technology offers a smooth ride that is as comfortably quiet as your first mile. Michelin backs the Defender2 with an 80,000-mile manufacturer's treadwear limited warranty in addition to the 6-year standard manufacturer's limited warranty, which covers defects in workmanship and materials for the life of the original usable tread or 6 years from the date of purchase, whichever occurs first. Actual on-road results may vary.
