  1. Recomendations for snow capable tires

    For what it's worth: the Defender 2s have more tread depth than the cross climates and a longer mileage warranty. Also, the Tremor has a twin clutch rear drive unit which helped considerably with snow.

  2. Recomendations for snow capable tires

    So your running Michelin Defender 2's on your Maverick Tremor? I'm glad to hear that they did well in the snow last year. I am tire shopping for our 23 Ford Escape AWD hybrid currently and I've read mixed reviews in winter driving for the Defender 2's. The Escape came with Michelin Primacy A/S...

  3. Recomendations for snow capable tires

    I biased to the Michelin Defender 2. They are quiet, smooth and performed extremely well in snow this past winter. According to the Tire Rack ratings the performance is very close to the cross climates based on exponentially more miles driven.

  4. Michelin Defender Tires?

    My OEM tires on my 2022 XLT LUX ECO AWD CP360 were unacceptable at 30,000 miles with light use. I replaced them with Defender 2 tires 10,000 miles ago and LOVE them.

  5. Michelin Defender Tires?

    Ditched Conti's @ 15,000 miles. Put on Defender 2's. I think it was worth the price. Better ride, handling, and mileage. Road trip went up to 32 mpg. Should be the last set I need for my '24 XLT.

  6. Michelin Defender Tires?

    Same as the BFG’s KO2’s for years, now they’ve moved on up to the KO3’s.

  7. Michelin Defender Tires?

    Can you provide a Michelin-supplied link or document that the 3's are coming out in North America? I can't find anything to support that. HRG

  8. Michelin Defender Tires?

    That's one reason they normally rename tires every few years.

  9. Michelin Defender Tires?

    Defender 2’s are being upgraded to Defender 3 I tried for the 2’s but they/them could only find three. Most 2’d left are getting a little out of date, I don’t want two year old new tires.

  11. Michelin Defender Tires?

    ...is that he's conflating mild hybrids with full EVs. And if that's the case...I wouldn't listen to anything else he has to tell you. The Defender 2 is a fantastic tire for anyone primarily interested in on-road comfort and quiet and is absolutely a top pick for Maverick owners who count...

  13. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    Bought them at a dealer about 60 miles away. About 80% highway. I always run my tires about 60% of the way between what the truck says (35psi) and the max on the tire (50psi). The tire dealer put in 35. I drove home with considerably larger and heavier tire, giving me quite a bit of a loss in...

  14. 🙋‍♂️ What did you do TO / WITH your Maverick today?

    Looking good! I was thinking about getting Michelin Defender or Cross Climate for my 23 XLT hybrid. Can you let us know how it effects gas mileage with the new tires, if at all? Thanks

  15. Hankook Kinergy PT H737 Tires: 90,000-Mile Warranty

    I put the lighter variant on my hybrid a year ago. They come 8/32 or 11/32. MPG is excellent. 1 MPG better than the stock tires. Smooth and quiet. Excellent in dry and wet. I'm never below freezing so no snow or ice experience but this is probably a 3 season tire for most folks. Can't beat the...

  16. Hankook Kinergy PT H737 Tires: 90,000-Mile Warranty

    I know in florida , tires should only be used for 5-6 years before the dry rot cracks are a problem, regardless of mileage.

  17. Hankook Kinergy PT H737 Tires: 90,000-Mile Warranty

    Anyone purchase these? How do they ride? Are they as good as Michelin Defender?

  18. Max Gas Mileage Tire for Mavericks

    Got it, thanks. HRG

  19. Max Gas Mileage Tire for Mavericks

    I can’t, I got this info from Ford when they tried to order me a set of defender 2’s. The 2’s that are still available are showing up with only older date codes. I don’t ever want that. She said she could still get them but it might take several days to scrounge up a set. The big tire houses...
