MaxTouch Construction™ — Engineered for Maximum Tread Life

• MaxTouch Construction™ optimizes the tire's contact patch geometry to evenly distribute the forces of acceleration, braking, and cornering — reducing irregular wear and maximizing tread life
• EverTread™ Compound uses a high-silica rubber formulation engineered for long-lasting durability, resisting wear while maintaining grip as the tire ages
• Backed by Michelin's 80,000-mile treadwear limited warranty, one of the strongest coverage commitments in the all-season touring category
• Covered by the Michelin Promise Plan™, which includes a 60-day satisfaction guarantee, roadside assistance, and Michelin's manufacturer's limited warranty

IntelliSipe™ Technology — All-Season Grip and Control

• IntelliSipe™ technology features interlocking zigzag sipes that increase tread block rigidity for improved stability and cornering while maximizing biting edges for grip in dry, wet, and light winter conditions
• An asymmetric tread pattern with wide circumferential grooves and lateral notches efficiently channels water away from the contact patch, delivering strong hydroplaning resistance on wet roads
• High-silica tread compound enhances wet traction and contributes to lower rolling resistance for improved fuel efficiency and reduced CO₂ emissions
• Mud & Snow (M+S) rated for confident traction in light mud and snow conditions

Comfort Control Technology™ — Quiet, Smooth Ride Quality

• Comfort Control Technology™ employs computer-optimized tread design and precision manufacturing processes to minimize road noise and vibration transmitted into the cabin
• The asymmetric tread pattern is specifically tuned for smooth, quiet operation — widely recognized as one of the quietest all-season touring tires in its class
• Delivers a refined, comfortable driving experience on city streets and long highway miles alike

Broad Application for Everyday Drivers

• Designed for drivers of sedans, coupes, compact cars, minivans, and crossovers seeking long-lasting premium all-season performance
• Available in a wide range of sizes to fit a broad spectrum of passenger vehicles
• EV Ready — suitable for use on electric vehicles where low rolling resistance and long tread life are especially important
• The combined efficiency of IntelliSipe™ and EverTread™ technologies also contributes to improved fuel economy without sacrificing safety or longevity

The Michelin Defender T+H represents Michelin's commitment to a no-compromise all-season tire — one that prioritizes longevity, safety, and everyday comfort. It is an outstanding choice for drivers seeking a premium, long-lasting tire that inspires confidence in all four seasons.
