Description
The Michelin Defender is a touring all-season tire specially designed to provide you with fuel efficiency, reliable handling, and year-round traction. Ideal for family cars, minivans, and small crossover vehicles, the Michelin Defender provides drivers with the confidence they need in both dry, wet, and light snow conditions. This is thanks to the silica-based tread compound with a mildly asymmetric tread design which was made to provide excellent traction on a wide range of temperatures. This is further enhanced by the Michelin IntelliSipe Technology which helps enhance tread block stiffness while reducing rolling resistance and wear rate. This means you get to enjoy fuel efficiency without sacrificing performance or durability. Another function of the IntelliSipe Technology is to increase the number of sipes which create biting edges needed during rain and light snow conditions. To help maximize the stress experienced by the tires when in contact with the road is the Michelin MaxTouch Construction.

- Meets the Michelin Green-X objectives as it has low rolling resistance which contributes to fuel economy
- Four circumferential grooves and hundreds of lateral notches to drain water out of the tires thus enhancing wet traction and reducing hydroplaning risk
- Promotes even wear and long tread life with the combination of MaxTouch Construction and IntelliSipe Technology
