Disappointed & frustrated - 25K miles and bald already

I have been a long time (over 20+ years) fan and promoter of Michelin tires and not only have I recommended them to numerous friends and family over the years, but I have always made sure that my BMW's and Telsa only had Michelin tires. However, I am not sure if Michelin quality standards have gone down but back in 2020, tires on my BMW went bald at around 20,000 miles which I could understand might have been a one off issue so I didn't bother and paid on my own to get them replaced, but now the same issue is happening with the tires that came with my Tesla Model 3....gone bald (i.e. 1mm tread left) at around 25,000 miles. I have always trusted the Michelin brand for the past 2 decades but I am being made to rethink that based on the above issues. I hope Michelin management does right by their customers and makes tires that last the full warranty mileage instead of giving us a run around with the warranty claim process.

Disappointed

Within a month of having a new set of tires installed, one of the tires developed a bulge in the sidewall. I had it replaced and paid a usage fee for the one month of wear on the old tire. Understandable, so no big deal. After about 5000 miles the tires started generating quite a bit of road noise that continued to increase over the life of the tire. The car was checked for alignement, etc with no problems found. I recently replaced the tires with a non-Michelin product and I can now comfortably talk with passengers in the car. very disappointed in your product.

Primacy MXM4

Had a set of 4 of these on my BMW when purchased and gave an excellent ride and control. I decided to replace the old Michellins with the same tire and they have so far given the same excellent performance. Had the new ones since Nov of 2017. Very good in the snow. A little more expensive than some SUV tires but my originals lasted for 8 years and 135,000km.

Michelin MXM4

I had the Pilot MXM4 tires on two Acura's TL Tech's and put over 58, 000 on both vehicles before replacing with Pilot Primacy tires. During the period of ownership I never had a sever handling problem, in snow or heavy rain or a out of balance problem. The only thing that annoyed me was the tire noise they created, especially when traveling 1000 miles per day. When time to replace the OEM's I gave consideration to other brands, just based on less tire noise but after reviewing the performance of the MXM$'s I had to stay with Michelin and search for another model tire. Deciding upon the Primacy model, I was shocked as to have such a quiet ride, and then to see the new Acura RLX had the same tire as OEM. Performance of the Pilot MXM4's is gratifying especially pushing them to MY Limits in the Rockies. Truly a superior tire as long as you don't mind some extra road noise.

Disappointed! Barely lasted 25k miles on my Tesla Model

These were the stock (OE) tires that came with my Tesla Model 3 (Dual Motor + Long Range), and I'm extremely disappointed with them. The only reason these tires even deserve 1-star is because they never blew out, and were fairly quiet (due to the acoustic foam inside). But I WOULD NOT pay money to buy these tires again, as they barely lasted 25k miles—well short of the 45k mile lifespan that Michelin touts. When I inspected my tires at 20k miles, I noticed that all four of them were measuring between 3/32" and 4/32". However, being on a tight budget (due to some unforeseen circumstances), I decided to hold-off on replacing them, thinking they'd survive another 5k miles while I saved enough money to buy some new ones. At 25k miles, I took my Model 3 in for routine maintenance, and had the Tesla Service Center inspect all four tires—one of them measured at 1/32", and the other three were COMPLETELY BALD at 0/32". Completely unacceptable for tires that are supposed to last 45k miles! But, honestly, even when these tires were new (at 9/32" tread) their performance in wet weather was lackluster, at best. Especially in the snow, where my Model 3 would frequently slip and slide—even though it has four-wheel drive, and a center-heavy battery. I just CANNOT recommend the Primacy MXM4s to anyone. And I've already told several of my friends (who also own Model 3s) to steer clear from them! I really expected better from Michelin.

Worst Michelin ever

I've been a Michelin user for over 30 years. This is the worst Michelin tire that I have ever had. My car is a small hybrid that is never driven like a sports car. I have 19000 miles on the tires and the dealer said that the tires needed to be replaced - no warranty at all.

Good Looks Great Wear

The Primacy MXM4 236/45R18 98W T0 were OEM on my 2019 Tesla M3. It has been almost 3 years (6/19/2019) and 41,200 miles and the tread is still good. I expect to get 45000 miles out of them. The tires have a good feel and perform well in cornering and in rain. There is some slight inner tire wear but l have not had an alignment done since I bought the car. I have rotated the tires roughly every 8000 - 10000 miles. I drive pretty fast on my commute as it is 90 percent highway but l also take it easy in the corners because if you are not careful you can eat up your tread-life pretty quickly in a Tesla. I just ordered a new set from Costco today. I would recommend these tires to anyone.

These are the best ...

These are the best original equiment tires I have used. They are on a 2009 Acura TSX and enhance the car's already good handling, in my opinion. The only comloaint I have is that, at least with this car, they are a little noisy. I view this as more of a probl;em with not enough insulation on the Acura, and I suspect it is triggered by the low profile of the tire.

Too hyped Too little return on investment

Awd. Hemi. Rotated on tire consistently but with 20k on them, they are at 4/32nds and now handle rain and snow like garbage! My review ratings are from when they were new. They are terrible now when the roads aren't dry. Had to bite the bullet and buy four new tires- losing my pro-rate money because I can't keep the car on the road in bad weather! I was driving on a slushy turnpike and at every corner while driving less than 50mph, I would consistently lose my steering and start to plow straight in turns! I was approaching a red light recently on a flat, snow covered road and while driving less than 30mph, with substantial stop distance I couldn't get the car stopped. I ended up 5' into cross traffic by the time I could get the car stopped. This was standard powdered snow. Honestly, the dry cornering since new is basically just satisfactory. I was never impressed when trying to push my car a little in dry turns. I will never buy them again unless I suddenly live in a dry climate. Pennsylvania isn't that.

Fantastic tire in all conditions

OEM tire on my 2013 Honda Accord Sport Sedan. Live in MI and have driven 25K miles so far in all four seasons. Feel completely confident in all driving conditions; never fear hydroplaning when wet or loosing control in snow. Tires are extremely quiet at all speeds. Tire wear is also above average. Had 9/32" left after 12K service and now only down to 8/32" after 25K service. Will not even shop around for another tire when these finally need replaced.
