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!

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.

Repeat customer

Michelin is my go to tire . I live in North Florida. I drive a 22 Genesis GV 70 and have had no problems with handling, even in Florida sideways rainstorms. Very little road noise. Just replaced original set at 46,000 miles. Thinking of putting a set on my Mercedes SUV that has Michelin Pilots on them for the extra 15,000 miles of tire wear.

Security & Peace of Mind

Michelin Tires are great. I buy them for security and peace of mind. I had the dealer replace the original Toyo tire tire that came with the car, before I left the lot. Replaced them with these Michelin tires

Much Better than O.E. MXM4

These tires perform better on my 2017 Acura RDX than the OE Michelin MXM4s. I purchased spec 235/60R18/XL 107V to replace the SL OE tires. I was concerned about the ride being too harsh with the XL rating for the new tires but, they actually ride much better (less steering wheel feedback from road imperfections) than the OEs. Road noise, braking, cornering and traction are also improved. Maria in the Michelin Consumer Care Department was great getting answers to my questions.

77k Miles

Although I was pushing it at the end, my OEM Primacy Tour A/S tires got me to 77,600 miles! I also changed my brakes, OEM too, if that shows you a little into my driving style. The style fits the design of my Genesis G70 Prestige 2.0 AWD perfectly, and the road noise has gone away once again.

Good tires

This is the second time I have used the Primacy Tour A/S on my car. They are quiet, comfortable, and stable. They hold air pressure quite well. They are not very durable. The set I replaced lasted 30 K miles, even though they are rated for 45 K miles.

Not great

These came stock on our 2025 Hyundai Tucson. They made the ride really stiff, and hard. We put on some Yokohama YKC CTX tires like we had on our Kia. The difference is amazing! I don't know how Michelin gets such great ratings all the time. Maybe since those came with the car they weren't actual Michelin primacy tires or something.

We’re sorry to hear the Primacy Tour A/S tires did not meet your ride comfort expectations on your Hyundai Tucson. New tires can feel firmer at first and typically require a short break in period as the tread surface wears in and the tires settle into normal performance. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. If we can be of assistance in the future, please don't hesitate to contact our Consumer Care team a call at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

Avoid buying

This tire is just not durable. I have replaced two in the space of three months. Both times were a sidewall damage during normal driving on a city street. I have driven these same streets on Pirelli tires and have no problems. They also underperform on snow and ice. Even with an Audi Quattro drivetrain, the tires slide in slush, snow, or on ice.

Great in dry/summer - impossible in any other weather.

On my 2024 GV80 3.5 AWD - These tires are excellent in the dry. Are quiet, comfortable and are the OE for this car. tires have 20k and a fair amount of tread left . Driving in MN and FL. Typically all seasons like this are fine. In the wet they are the scariest tire i've used in 40+ years of driving all types of vehicles in all kinds of weather. ANY slippery surface, light/heavy snow, rain, icy, the tramlining above 30 mph has made me change roads and trips. Car seems to be fighting itself from all 4 corners. glad i checked this site as i was going into the dealer to check tire options. traction control/snow mode/diff lock - nothing made difference.
