    Product Details

    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.

    Mud And Snow Rated

    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.

    • Features durable construction

    • Quiet and comfortable ride

    • All-season safety

    • Wheels sold separately

    • EV ready

    • Supported by the Michelin Promise Plan of a 60-day satisfaction guarantee, roadside assistance, and a 80,000-mileage warranty

    Love these new tires!

    7 days ago
    I always respected the Michelin “name” but didn’t think I could afford them. They came highly recommended by my tire dealer. Now that I have driven with them I love them, and I will always buy Michelins.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    My second set

    8 days ago
    My first set of these tires came with the car when I bought it new. I put 55,000 miles on them before I replaced them. Back in the day, I would have driven until I had a flat, but no more. I could have put another 5 K on them, but safety first. Also the traction was a little off.

    Yes, I recommend this product.

    A: Unfortunately, we do not have visibility to your vehicle information. The Defender 2 is targeted toward car, CUV, SUV, and minivan fitments. Please consult your local Canadian Tire store to confirm if the Defender 2 is right for your vehicle.
