Those are good tires. I was specifically chassis maximum rain and on road snow performance as thats how i mostly use my truck. Besides a two track it doesnt go off road. No more wheeling my daily lol
@ they’ve taken me all over the northeast with the snow and ice. Never skipped a beat. I think it was Tirerack or some other 3rd party that’s tested the Defenders against several all-terrains and they outperformed all but one and even then they were a close second. That is phenomenal for an all-season highway tire!
Great video! If you live in a snowy area, I assume you do since you’re in Michigan, could you do a review of that? Also, maybe could you review a hard acceleration? Im in a toss up between these an K03’s. My K02’s are kaka in wet weather. Thanks.
How do they ride compared to stock tires? And how is the noise level? Mine has the Goodyear Wrangler (tremor) 285/75 R18 tires (which I think are not bad, but a little noisy).
@@ShelbyvsViper road noise is slightly more but not loud. A small hum. Our cabs are extremely well insulated. Im running 50 front 55 rear psi for towing. The rear is way too hard empty and it bounces a good bit over big bumps or pavement heaves which if you are from michigan, you know our roads are terrible. The rear can probably go down to 35-40 when the truck is empty and be find and ride much better. I would say its no worse than stock and it depends on the psi you are at and the load you are at. I wouldn’t say they ride better as the stock Bridgestones were very good tires in my opinion. Duratracs are much much louder. They get worse with age too. Great tire from 100 percent tread down to about 50 then as for as im concerned a terrible tire. I would say duratracs probably perform almost equally in mud i got into my muddy field when these tires were brand new and for an at they cleaned very very well. Duratracs are also great in winter but i think the at4’s are better in rain. Iv put probably 200k miles on duratracs. Iv had many sets. Very good tire for what it is but it has limitations. Its almost as loud as a true mud tire but its not as good in the mud as a mud tire by far. If the mud is sticky you are in trouble just like an all terrain
I’m a huge fan of Michelin Defenders. Even though they’re all-seasons and lack the 3-peak snowflake, they are still the best tires I’ve ever owned.

@@ericcheung4502 absolutely we will be exploring off road and on road in the snow for sure! Thanks for watching
