Pleased So Far

I just put these on recently so these are first impressions. I am a longtime Michelin owner for all our vehicles from SUVs to cars. First time on the Taurus. Against my better judgement, I put Continental Pure Contacts on first to save a few dollars. But after replacing 2 of the new Continentals and still not being able to balance them, I switched back to Michelins, which is what I should have gotten in the first place. Paid a little more but...you get what you pay for. The Primacys ride is smooth, they are super quiet and very responsive. I have only driven in dry and wet conditions so far but very pleased with their performance.

Tire with replacement needed after 21000 miles

This tire came on my 2018 Lexus 350 ES. I have approx. 21000 miles on the car and my tires are down to the bar that indicates that I need 4 new tires. I have been researching tires to purchase and realized that these tires should be getting many more miles than I am getting. My driving is on paved roads by my home. I don't understand why I am getting so little mileage on these tires, but I would not recommend them based on my issue.

Shame Shame Michelin; Shot at 23,000 miles

Would give Zero stars if possible. These tires came with a new Model 3. 23,323 miles later, constantly properly inflated, driven conservatively, and they are near bologna. These are THE worst tires manufactured since the steel belted radial in the 70's

Improved the car's ride

I purchased the Primacy tires as a replacement on my Lexus GS 430. Not only are these tires handling extremely well, they have made a noticeable difference in the ride quality. The car has the handling package with the lower profile tires and I could tell the difference in ride quality between my car and my wife's GS. Now not only do I get the handling benefits but the ride is not nearly as harsh.

Great all around tires

For the Acura TL these are hands down the best tires. The first set lastest 35k miles which I thought was a little low so I bought another supposedly equivalent set of tires and the loss of quality compared to the Michelin was immediately noticeable. The new tires had a lot of road noise that wasn't there with the Michelins plus the difference in build quality and appearance was very noticeable. After 10k miles a tire separated, so I was liberated from the bad set and went right back to these!

Excellent Value and Performance

These are the best all around tires I have ever experienced. They give the car a safe, planted feel, a huge improvement from the last set of (cheaper) tires I had. The MXV4 is excellent in all conditions, especially rain. There are cheaper tires but in the long run, you can't go wrong with Michelin tires.

Good car, good tires

Primacy MXM4’s were factory installed and gave very good service. Very smooth and quiet, not a hint of balance or out-of-round issues (I’ve seen that). But coming from a 2WD minivan with good winter tires to a AWD SUV with new All Season tires in a major snow belt area was scarily disappointing, but nothing a new set of good winter tires couldn’t fix. Winter tires with 2WD is better than AS tires with AWD on snow covered roads with any accumulation, but winter tires & AWD for the win in really bad conditions. Changing tires every winter makes it more trouble than it’s worth to keep track of mileage on each set, but after 260K kms, I’ve used up the original set, a set of Premier LTX’S and about 66% of the winter tires. Not bad at all. Both sets have been very good. Both were very good on wet roads, with the LTX’s staying excellent right until they were down to the wear bars. And the MXM4’s become quite noisy and more slippery close to end of life, but nowhere near as bad as some others I’ve experienced. All in all, the 2 best sets of tires I’ve had. Getting a new set of MXM4’s tomorrow.

Quality Tires Last! Buy Michellin n Save

Occassionally due to auto manufacturers choices or recommendations I have used other brands of auto tires. They always seem to disappoint me. It is usually the ride, handling, miles-per-gallon, or total miles driven on the tires. I then switch the vehicle to Michellin tires and I say "thats what I've been missing!!"

Good tire

To correct my review of the Premier which I just bought for my Camary, my review was for the Primacy for a Camary 2 1/2 years ago. I was more than pleased with the performance of the Primacy even when I hit the pothole and got a bubble in the tire, I was driving on that tire for 2 months until I bought the Premier. As far as tires for my car, I will stay with Michelin as long as I can afford them.

So Far So Good

Just replaced a previous set of Michelin asymetrical Primacy sport tires on my GS300, which had worn out prematurely and developed cupping/excessive road noise very quickly. However, they handled great. So far these MXM4's are much smoother riding, are rated at double the wear life, and seem to handle well - although have not really pushed them. With the exception of the last set of Primacy's, I have always been pleased with the performance of Michelins. Tried another brand once and noticed immediately a harsher ride and poor handling, despite being touted as equivalent to the comparable Michelin tire.
