Key benefits for Michelin Primacy SUV+ tyre
Excellent braking performance in rainy conditions(1)(2).
MICHELIN PRIMACY SUV+ delivers excellent wet braking performance(1)(2) thanks to the new generation of MICHELIN EverGrip Technologies. A new rubber compound integrated within the tread pattern design evacuates water effectively for enhanced wet grip. U-shaped grooves and full-depth sipes continue to break through the water film on the road even when worn(2), so you stay safe on the road.

Poor tire design and longevity
I have lost two sets of Michelin tires due to sidewall issues and damage from minor impacts, such as climbing a curb or hitting a small pothole. The Michelin Primacy 4 SUV is not designed for roads in developing or underdeveloped countries. Both times, the sidewalls failed, causing rapid deflation. I had to install a TPMS system to monitor pressures because even driving just 100 meters on a deflated tire leads to complete shredding. These tires also struggle with moderate road imperfections, making them highly impractical for rougher environments. If you drive in areas with less-than-perfect roads, I would not recommend these tires. They lack durability and resilience, especially for SUVs that need to handle everyday road challenges.

Outstanding!
I have the "SUV" (non " ") 255/55R19 version fitted to my Audi Q7, and they are simply outstanding - extrapolated longevity 140,000km (I measure carefully every 10,000 - currently on 100,000), great grip in the wet, quiet, and comfortable. I'm a chauffeur, and these tyres are perfect for this application. I'll be fitting the " " ones when the time comes, without hesitation. 🕺

Good mileage for an all-wheel drive 2.3 tonne vehicle
I'm about to fit the thrid set of Michelin Primacy SUV to a Volvo XC90 and the reasons are: excellent mileage 55,000kms for each set and a quiet ride. Breaking is as good as can be expected while in wet-weather, I drive according to the road conditions. This latest tyre replacement is a registation requirement and the tyre dealer said I'm using a tyre at the top of the market. I explained why and he agreed that all-wheel driv cars are hard on tyres.

Much Better than OEM
Just fitted to LEXUS RX450h. Tyres ride much better, are quieter, have better turn-in and better road-feel. Overall, vehicle feels much more like the premium SUV it is, and traction seems much improved...but it will take some serious rain to know for sure...too early to comment on wear.
