Great Handling, Tread wears a bit too fast

I bought a 2018 Honda Accord Touring new with these tires. I drive pretty tame in Kansas...flat...no curves. I do a lot of gentle engine breaking and with a CVT there isn't much exciting about 0-60, so these tires live a boring life. The car lives in a garage too at night. I got about 35,000 on the original set and decided to replace with the same tire. I am at 68,000 and it appears I am about 4-5k miles from a third set. I used to run Goodyear Assurance Comfortred's and get the advertised mileage (80k) in older Accords when I used to travel highways all the time. I think 45-50k would be realistic on these tires. 35k just seems low. Also, once you get down to about 4-5mm of tread depth, the noise really picks up.

Great when new

New on a 2011 E350 Mercedes they were great. Easy riding, great traction, smooth and quiet. But things changed. After 30,000 the dealership would not recommend rotating tires any longer. And did not offer any solution or warranty. Replacing them at 33,000 miles of Grandmother driving. In town and on interstates to visit grandchildren are the main usage of the vehicle. I had tires rotated every maintenance visit, and have worn smoothly. The tires were rough, noisy and hard riding after 15 or 20,000, and a great loss of wet "puddle" traction. Still super traction on dry pavement. Would you recommend this tire to a friend? Maybe

Michelin primacy MXM4

I purchased 4 of these tires on Nov. 19, 2015. In August, 2016, I was told that 2 of the tires were wearing in the middle tread of the tire. I had to replace 2 tires. When I went back a month later to have them rotated and ready for winter driving, I was told the other 2 tires needed replacing, because the tread was so low. Only 28,000 miles of use. The price was adjusted, but replacing them, because the price has gone up since last year, was still much more than anticipated. Only 56% of the projected use, and all 4 tires had to be replaced. When these wear out, I will look elsewhere! I do NOT recommend this tire!

Good Performance, Poor Comfort

I have only had these tires on a new car, a Hyundai Genesis, since Mar,2016. Their handling and stopping performance has been outstanding. Their road noise level is really annoying, which is probably a result of the performance design. The ride comfort is extremely poor, with every bump in the road transmitted to the passengers. The tire are Primacy X4M4 245x45x18 96V, which accounts for the noise and ride issues we have. The trend by auto makers to ever larger wheels and low profiles for looks is the real problem. They should provide for different wheel sizes other than the set size for a trim package. You can go up but not down.

Not even 24k miles and need replacing.

Bought my Avalon 2 years ago and have less than 24k miles on it and tires are at the wear bars already. Regular rotations and air pressure adjustments, needless to say are not enough. Sad part is it's been 23.5 months...I shouldn't have to put tires on it in less than 24 months. I've always like Michelin tires until now. Guess I'll start looking elswhere for tire products. This is a very poor respresentation of what used to be a good tire manufacturer.

Good but leaky

Had these tires for just over a year now. I'm coming from years of Michelins that have required zero maintenance. These however, during cold months, are losing 5psi per week. They ride fine and grip the road fine, but I now have to be in the habit of constantly checking pressure.

Worst tires I've had in my 20 years of driving

In my 20 years of driving these are the first run flat tires I've ever had and I would never purchase them again. Since I've been driving I've never had a bubble or tire ever shred on me until I bought this car with these tires. On this car I've had an issue with all 4 of the original tires. 3 of them had bubbles and the 4th was going to shred. With run flats I thought they were supposed to be more durable but I've found that to be the opposite. When the last one developed a bubble before I went on a long trip I called everywhere and they were on national back order and the only place I could get the tire was from the dealer which ended

NOT CLOSE to an All Season Tire

Michelin Primacy mxm4 tires are very competent on wet & dry conditions in summer and are even pretty good in snow IF ITS COLD..but in wet snow / slushy city roads these tires are HORRIBLE. I chose these for my sister's Subaru Forester as I was very impressed by the Michelin Pilots I had on my Camry, but the Primacy mxm4 are very disappointing. I'm now shopping again, this time going for an ALL WEATHER TIRE. I'm not sure I will be purchasing Michelin's in the future. This vehicle is used primarily in the city and she didn't want to have to invest in two sets of tires considering she drives less than 10k a year.

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.

We now drive another car than before installation

Our 2014 Chrysler 300S was equipped with Firestone Firehawk tires from the factory. The road noise was extremely agitating especially on cement roads or bridges. We had a constant noise which was diagnosed as wheel bearing noise but after replacement of the bearings the noise continued and it was suggested it might be caused by the tires. As a licensed aircraft mechanic with former auto shop experience I doubted that suggestion, however upon installation of the MXM4 tires the noise disappeared, the handling is totally more enjoyable, the ride is 100% improved and we are now enjoying what rides, drives and feels like a new car!
