Great tire for BMW

Although Michelin's website notes the Primacy Tour A/S won't fit on my 2017 BMW 440 xi, the exact sizes [225/40R19 and 255/35R19] I require were available. ?? My local Michelin dealer wasn't familiar with these tires, and had to special order them for me. The good news is I received fresh 2020 manufacture DOT codes. After just a month, I'm delighted with the new tores, as they are quiet, stick well on wet roads...and even light snow! Michelin even makes the sidewalls with rim protectors to avoid curb damage. I couldn't be happier.

Tire wears out

These tires came on my 2021 Kia Telluride that I bought new. At the last oil change/maintenance check the tread was at 4/32 and I was told I’d need tires before winter. The car only has 26000 miles on it. Seems ridiculous they didn’t last longer. I would not recommend.

Low mileage/excessive tread wear

They came with the 2021 Ford Escape that I bought new in 2021. I check and inflate as needed every month as required and the outside edges of the tires are wearing through to the first set of plies. Very disappointed with only 45,000 miles. I've had original Michelins on previous cars that got me 70-80,000 miles.

2021 Ford Escape Owner, When the shoulder of the tread on one side of a tire wears faster than the rest of the tire, this can result from a variety of conditions (misalignment, loose or worn suspension components, hard cornering, improper tire rotation practices, misapplication, high crown roads or non-uniform mounting. We'd recommend taking your vehicle to an authorized Michelin retailer for an inspection of the tires. You are welcome to contact us at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST upon getting their inspection.

Great customer service!

I got the primacy tour tires on my car with my lease, they wore out quickly at 26k miles, I called Michelin and was back and forth a few times because of the dealership and Michelin was so kind and responsive! Was upset with the tires but the customer service saved everything, helped resolve everything and has been such a pleasant experience!

Exactly what I wanted

My 2016 Honda Accord V6 sedan came with Primacy MXV4s. They were ok but they weren’t very responsive and they didn’t like getting pushed hard during cornering. The Primacy Tours are much better. My car feels more “planted” and it handles better, The ride is a little firmer but not harsh. The new tires are 2 pounds heavier and I assume the extra weight went into stiffer sidewalls, yielding better handling but a little stiffer ride. The tires are quiet except on rough road surfaces. The bottom line is that the Tours feel sportier but still very civilized, which is exactly what I wanted.

Horrible Harmonic humming noise emitting from the new tires.

I had these tires installed on my 2019 Lexus NX300. The tires have been balanced twice and aligned. I have an annoying hum at 30mph. I can feel it through the steering wheel. I totally dissatisfied with these new tires. My tire shop doesn't have an answer. I cannot continue to drive with tires that emit this hum.

Horrible on dirt/slush/salt

These tires came on my 2020 Hyundai Tucson. Fortunately I work from home so I wasn’t aware how bad they handle on dirt, slush, and leftover salt left on the road. There is absolutely no type of traction and I’ve almost ended up off the road. Other than that, they handle normal conditions well.

Nice road characteristics, but treadwear nowhere near the promised miles.

These tires ride well and quietly, and they also improved the handling of my Lexus ES330. These V-rated tires provided handling and cornering that was better than the Michelin H-rated tires my car had previously. The only major drawback is that although they came with a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty, they were worn to replacement-needed level after a bit less than 13,000 miles (and had been properly inflated, wore evenly, and rotated every 6,000 miles). Michelin's "fine print," which I had not seen until now, limits treadwear warranty to specified miles OR 6 years, whichever comes first. I bought these before the pandemic, and did not travel for 3 years, yet Michelin's "clock was ticking," and when I called today to request pro-rated coverage, they said no. So much for "customer goodwill."

Smooth quiet ride for 30K

These tires were so much quieter and smoother than the factory tires. I thought I would get 40,00 miles even though rated for much more. I was wrong. I only got 30,00 miles. Its a trade off. One tire developed sidewall bubble. Another blew out and the replacement tire blew out. Bad driving? Coincidence? Not so good quality? Maybe all of the above. Good value? - probably not. They're expensive but they do ride nice.

Poor wear

After just 10,700 miles (12 months) the tires are at a 7 on the tread gauge. I have had 3 incidents of road debris with the last one requiring and “shaved” replacement. Apparently the tires grip so well they suck up the road debris, I would never purchase this type of tire again.
