Review: Excelente calidad, vale la pena
Review: I really like these tires! In fact this is my 2nd set on my Honda Civic that has over 300k miles. My only complaint is they are horrible in snowy conditions. Here in Utah I will swap them out during winter for a set of blizzak. It's completely amazing how much more winter tires will perform over the Defender.
