MICHELIN® DEFENDER® Tire Drives Safer

Introducing the MICHELIN® DEFENDER® tire. Tire design helps keep you safer, longer. Special slits in the tread, called sipes, are designed as 3D zigzags. These zigzags are important in improving tire grip and flexibility. Varying spaces between the 3D-Sipes optimize the locking and unlocking of tread-blocks, helping them open flexibly yet lock firmly when pressure is applied. The tread-block surface maximizes contact with the road — Providing exceptional grip and braking for your vehicle. Find out more at michelinman.com/defender
