Awesome 3 out of 4 Seasons

I drive primarily highway. I've been making the 86 mile round trip commute for nearly 14 years. I'm over 250,000 miles in that period on a variety of tires (mostly Michelins). I thought these tires were great in terms of comfort and handling from Spring through Fall. Unfortunately, I only got 43,000 miles on these tires instead of the 55,000 miles for which they are rated (the first time I've failed to go over the treadwear rating). I also found the winter traction to be below-average for the category. It is apparent to me that this tire is highly biased toward touring performance in the dry/wet at the expense of winter.

The best of both worlds

These great tires came with my new 2012 Toyota Camry SE V6 which along with the premium rims really dress the car up nice. But more important than the looks and appearance comes the performance and dependability and trust that comes with the Michelin name brand. I drive with full confidence and peace of mind knowing that my new car is equipped with these top of the line Michelin tires.

Should be OE on '13 Escape!

I bought a '13 Escape Titanium at Christmas, and by the end of Feb I had 3 of the OE tires replaced for different reasons. I got tired of blowing money on them so I found the closest size Michelin made in the Primacy MXM4. I absolutely love them! They ride noticeably smoother, handle better, and look better! Keep in mind this is on a brand new car with less than 5k miles on it, and I could still tell a major difference. They should come OE on the Escape Titanium! Time will tell how long they last as I've put about 1k miles on them.

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!

Tires for my HHR

I replaced the stock tires on my Chevy HHR with four Michelin Primacy MXM4s. The two most impressive things to me about the tires was the balancing of the wheels/tires and the handling. After mounting the tires to the wheels I found that the weights needed were minimal. I recall one 0.25oz and one 0.5oz were used on one wheel and the change from that throughout the remainder of the tires wasn't much more if at all. The only reason this popped out to me was when removing the weights from the wheel with the stock tire, there were four 0.5oz weights on the inside and some weights on the outside. I can't remember exact amounts (changed tires about 20k miles ago) but it was very noticeable. It was roughly 4-7 weights off and 1-3 weights on, and this factor alone helped to give me confidence about the quality of the product. Concerning handling, I obviously don't drive a sports car but the feeling on the road came into existence. The stock tires had no feedback but with the Michelins it was as if you could feel all four tires when swerving back and forth. Other aspects of the product that impressed me was that the Michelins were quiet, and the tire wear is not too bad seeing that I finally rotated my tires after 20k miles (forgot lol). I drive approx. 60 miles one way to college via the I-10 (no dorm), so I was able to see the difference in the tries relatively quick. I usually go the speed limit or whatever traffic allows (75mph-83mph). Really no complaints at all. Probably the only complaint I'd say would be the price, but you get what you pay for.

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.

hooked

I have had these tires on my 2010 Ford Focus for almost two years now and I will never buy another brand of tire. They look like new and I put well over 10,000 miles on my car per year - (averaging 23,000 per year)! They are quiet, the grip is GREAT in the rain and snow and the ride is smooth as silk. I am extremely happy with this purchase and recommend them to anyone I know shopping for tires.

Near Miss

On our trip from Pittsburgh, PA to Sarasota, FL in September 2012 and traveling through West Virginia in the rain the second vehicle (Ford F-150) ahead of us did a 360 and hit the concrete barrier traveling at 70 mph + we were able to come to a controlled stop without any fears of hitting the car directly in front of us or the F-150. I believe the MXM4's were the reason for the safe controlled stop. THANK YOU Michelin!! PS: The driver of the F-150 was OK but, the front end of the truck was a mess.

Comfort, longevity and performance

I have the MXM4's on my 2006 Honda Accord. The first set of Michelin's that came standard on the vehicle lasted 80,000 miles. So far, I've gotten 65,000 miles on this set and they are performing even better than the OEM tire as I've got about 40% tread remaining. These tires are amazing. They are quiet, comfortable and consistent. I'm not a fan of spending a lot of money, but when you get such a great bang for the buck out of these tires...these are the greatest value by far.

So disappointed....

Installed as OEM on a 2016 Kia Optima, and at 29,000 miles, being told they need replaced. Have had Michelin before and had good luck, not sure why these are preforming so poorly. Also seeing other Optima owners reporting similar results. Maybe they shipped a bad batch to Kia? Working with the dealer to replace under the pro-rated warranty, but even then I have to pay installation and balancing...that should be included.
