86,000 Miles and have to replace them

Great set of tires. 86,000 miles and never once rotated them, but I religiously keep inflation to point.. - I also have not had to put brakes on this car yet because of my driving style and most of it being interstate miles. Everything about these tires were great until recently as they are down to 3-4/32 and I am replacing with the same brand/size tomorrow.

Very happy with the Primacy

Bought the 18" Primacy to replace original tires on our Lexus RX350. I specifically selected 18" tires for this car because I want a smooth, cushioned ride. If you want low profile tires, buy a sports car and expect to replace them every 25k. The Primacy is quiet with a great ride. It performs well in all conditions especially on the interstate. We are at about 30k miles and they look great. Just had them rotated. Really happy with them.

I will Always Choose Michelin!

My first set of steel belted Michelin Tires came on my Lincoln Continental Mark 4. Many years into their use, the car was slowly loosing air on a return trip from Maine on the Garden State Parkway with my wife and 4 children. When the service station put the car up on a lift, I found a huge bolt in the tire, which i thought should have ruined it I was just loosing air while keeping my family safe. I vowed then to never buy any other brand of tire than Michelin from then on, and I have never been sorry for that decision. Thank you!
