Best Tyre I ever fitted
I put on a set on my Toyota Corolla Verso at 289 000km - I got close to 112 000 km on 2 of the tyres and changed the first 2 at about 70 000 km. I managed to get 2 x Primacy 3 ‘s for the two that were on approximately 70 000. When it was time to swap the 2 with about 112 K , the tyre was not available. I put on Primacy 4. The 2 x Primacy 4 s - had about 44000 km when I sold the car. The 2 x prmacy 3 tyres had about 80 000 km when the car was sold. Period in question - 2016 to 2024 Owned this car from new - 2006 - 2024. This car still has its original shocks at 448 000 km when sold . Note - this is not a sports car . Prior to Covid - this car averaged 30 000 km a year. Post Covid - about 12 000 kms per year. First purchase - July 2016 Last Purchase - p4 - January 2020
Rubbish on Kia e-Niro
Tyres are original to car and apparently, according to Kia UK, recommended by Michelin to Kia for use on the e-Niro. but mileage I absolutely useless. at 2 years old and only 11,700 miles they are down to the wear strips.
Brilliant Tires
I fitted Michelin Premacy 3 tires to my Mercedes C Class to replace the factory fitted Continentals, the noise reduction was amazing, the car steers more accurately and no longer vibrates
Longevity
Tyres are long lasting
Longevity
The tyres are robust and have a good lifetime.
Excellent Tyres
Just had them fitted, so can't comment on long-term use, but straight away I can tell that these are even quieter than my previous Michelin Energy Savers. I was told by my dealership that these tyres are a level above the Energy Savers, hence why they are so expensive, and said I could get an equivalent of the Energy Savers from a brand like Continental. I opted for these at the extra cost thinking it would make my car even better if these tyres are even better. That turned out to be true! Very pleased with them.
Run flats for BMW Mini
I've had other run flat tyres on my Mins. But out them, these Michelin Primacy run flats are the only ones that don't tram line. They improve the driving experience by making the steering more predictable.
Great tyre
On the Mini John Cooper Works these tyres provide quiet, long lasting driving. Good all round grip only spoilt slightly by being so firm due to being Run Flats. Covered 30k miles with ease
good grip during cornering
feel more confidence while driving
Nice but can be better.
I put these on my nissan juke 2 years ago. I must say that handling and road noise is very good. The only problems I have with the tyres is wet road handling and durability. In heavy rains the tyres tend to become very loose on the road and is on the verge of hydroplaining. Durability is something to be desired and road conditions that are less than favourable the tread wears out quickly and they are very prone to sidewall damage. I have had mine for 30000KM and they need to be replaced asap!
