Product description

Designed for compact and passenger cars, the Michelin Defender all season tyre, with a T-speed rating, offers a higher mileage without compromising safety.

Longevity. Higher mileage with the MaxTouch Construction technology, where the internal structure works with 3D intelligent sipes to increase the area in contact with the road when accelerating, braking and cornering.

Savings. Features Michelin IntelliSipe technology, which by reducing the depth of grooves increases the tread stiffness and reduces the rolling resistance for lower fuel consumption.

Safety. As sipes open they provide multiple biting edges to shorten braking distances. Four wide longitudinal grooves work with lateral grooves to quickly remove water for a high resistance to aquaplaning.

What is the rezulteo score?

The rezulteo score is calculated considering three performance categories: economy, comfort and safety. When it comes to winter tyres, the performance criteria snow and ice are added. By weighting different basic performance criteria an overall score is determined. This weighting is calculated based on the tyre size category: economic, high performance or sports.
