They eliminate water and slush from the footprint in wet-weather conditions.This tire also promotes a quiet and comfortable performance. The footprint channels airwaves away, preventing them from coming into contact with tread elements and generating noise.

The reduced noise and vibrations guarantee the passengers an enjoyable driving experience.The Michelin Defender LTX M/S 2 extends its service life. The ribbed tread design and the durable rubber compound work together to prevent irregular and premature wear formations.
