    By far the worst tires I have ever had. Dragging and vibration, weak sidewall (will deform at the first pothole). First Michelins in my black list.

    Fitted as replacements for Bridgestone Turanza ER30,ER30s were original tyres and had been replaced at the front once but were out of stock so lease company fitted 3 Michelin Pilot Primacy HPs,2 front and 1 rear,leaving one ER30 with just over 2mm left.In comparison to the ER30s i find them a poor tyre. They are quite vague in a straight line,they lack grip in general and spin very easily when accelerating. They don't seem to clear as much water and were far worse than the worn ER30s in the snow ...

    Michelin Pilot Primacy tyres have good road grip in dry and wet conditions. easily lasts for more than 25,000 miles in country roads. Reliable brand name. I am very satisfied with michelin and would not change to another brand. Only bad point is not cheap.

    I bought my BMW 530i with dunlop sport tyres (yep, BMW fitted dunlop budget tyres on my luxury sedan). So I bargained a purchase condition that BMW fit Michelin Pilot Primacy 225/55 on 16inch rims (95W rated) on all 4 rims plus the spare. I did my homework and asked around before I stipulated the Michelins for my car and the experience of riding on the Michelins over the last 55,000klms confirmed my research results. I'm a trained high speed driver and use my car in a spirited fashion on coun ...

    Michelin Pilot Primacy have very good wear rate. Reasonably comfortable, steering and handling is good on my car although I would not push too hard in the wet.(BMW E36 323i 4 door)

    Generally OK for comfort and especially wear, OK for performance in dry.

    In the past lucky if I got 15,000 miles out of the Michelin Pilot Primacy tyres. So 5 years ago (YES FIVE) fitted 4 Michelins and after 5 years and 57,000 miles there is still 3mm tread left on them, reckon I'll get 65 out of these. So 65,000 miles = 4 sets of cheapies at 15,000 miles a throw. Thats a total tire cost for cheapies of £240 a wheel. Okay so the Michelins are pricey at £140 a tyre but do the maths as in the long run they are a better bet.

    I find these tyres all in great ..... Ok a bit pricey, however they do seem to of worn down pretty quickly. you get 7.9mm of tread new & I'm down to about 4 in 2 yrs 15,000 & they really don't perform now ...... Theys like me I suppose ..... GEtting old.

    I have a IV Golf GTI and have had 3 lots of new tyres, each time Michelin Pilot Primacy's. Cannot recommend them enough. The wear on them is great, especially compared to other people I know who have the same model car, same kind of mileage but other branded tyres.

    I have always used Michelins but this run has been a grave disappointment. All is fine including tread wear with the exception of the road noise. I know I'm driving my BMW but It sounds like I'm driving my truck. Very significant harmonic vibration. I have had the tires aligned but I really don't think this was actually ever the problem. The volume level is really disturbing especially on flat crisp pavement when the sound comes forth. This is a real bummer when laying in for a nice ride. I have ...

    I am a driving Instructor using a Mini Cooper,I had two sets of Pirelli tyres on,both doing about 30000 miles each,I aquired a new set of wheels and was recommended Michelin Pilot Premacy 225/45/17 tyres for hard wearing and rim protection, so far they have done 51,000 and have worn evenly across the whole width of the tyre. Even tyre fitters are amazed when I tell them how many miles these tyres have done with most stating they look like they have done 20000 miles. There is still about 5mm of t ...
