A long-lasting, all-season tire seems like a unicorn - a myth that no one can find. That's probably because no one's paying attention to Michelin's Defender. Built with Michelin's Evertread technology, the Defender promises long-lasting tire life in the most extreme conditions. Made with light trucks, SUVs, and crossovers in mind, this all-weather, all-season tire is designed to last longer than competitors. In addition, the tread pattern offers better performance on wet roads. Snow traction is also a cut above the rest. This benefit is partly because of Michelin's investment in its silica compound for construction and its IntelliSipe technology. It's not often you get tires that offer superior performance and are eco-friendly. The Defender does both. IntelliType combines with Michelin's Green X technology to lower the tire's rolling resistance. This innovation, in turn, means better fuel consumption numbers for the consumer. Four wide circumferential grooves aid in clearing water and slush from the front of the tire to add to the traction that the sipes offer. Steering and handling on even wet and cold roads are superb. Unfortunately, the tire doesn't do so well at cornering in cold conditions. If you are looking for a reliable tire that offers safety options that you want for cold and wet conditions, check out the Defender.
