Good Handling and Ride, Poor Treadware Life

I purchased these tires in 2014 as a new release. Handling and ride are excellent, however treadware life is poor. They had a 100,000Km warranty and with 52,000Km they have less than 3/32 tread remaining. The tire did maintain the treadware pattern across the face of the tire as was designed and still handled well, but 3/32 going into winter is still a risk. I did receive a warranty adjustment, but did not purchase another set of Premier's due to the poor treadware life I experienced. However I did stick with Michelin and purchased a set of their newest release Primacy Touring A/S. Am hoping for the same performance but better tread life.

Horrible treadlife

Echo what many others have described. Purchased a set on 2-5-18 for a 14 Honda Odyssey. All four are down to 2/32” and need replaced before winter. That’s 20 months! Rotated regularly. Just not a good tire at all. Possibly my last set of Michelin’s as my previous set of Primacy MXV4 only lasted 23 months.

Michelin All Season Premier Tires

The tires were on the vehicle when I purchased it. They "looked" newer. When 3 different people checked at 3 different sites, all noted that the tires are in the "recommended replacement" range. The vehicle only has 20k miles on it. The vehicle handled terribly on snow & ice and I dreaded driving in inclement weather b/c I slid all over the place and experienced unreliable stopping. I thought that perhaps it was because I was getting used to driving a new vehicle, but that's usually a "good" experience. I've driven cars and trucks for 40 years now and this was unique. I hated driving on these tires. I heard that there were problems with this tire, but never received notice of a recall & am wondering how to find out.

Nor12, unfortunately the warranty on the tires is not transferrable, it's for the original purchaser. Give us a call at 866-866-6605 to discuss options for your vehicle that are suited for your needs.

Excellent Tire, Quiet, High Gas Mileage, Smooth.

I am so happy with these tires! There are several reviews that claim drivers only got 38k or less miles on this tire. I wonder if these drivers had proper inflation, perfect alignment and what road conditions for which they were using these tires. My experience is the tire wore down after 58,334 miles. That is how many miles I drove before the ‘penny test’ failed. However, I could probably drive another 5,000 miles safely. Given that I do a lot of long distance and business driving, I decided to replace them before they completely wore out. Remember, these are touring tires meant for smooth, super quiet, luxury rides. If you are using these for strenuous driving, you’re better off with the sport edition. This is my personal experience and it’s possible that other drivers received defective tires or had them installed by a non-professional.

Outstanding, new A/S performance product

Purchased to replace OEM, subpar brand, at delivery of new, luxury sedan. The Premier feels even more surefooted in the steering wheel and seat than the three sets of Primacy owned with last three, large but lower performance sedans. The tires' quiet, grip at take-off and extreme cornering must be experienced to be believed. However, its surefooted grip at highway speeds, during sudden lane changes, in a pouring rain, will assure you, that you own the finest, affordable passenger car tire on the road, today. I expect to achieve more than the 60,000 mile wear from these tires as I have from the previous Michelin Primacy model. I intend to keep this car for more than ten years and will keep it shod in Michelin's best A/S tires for my enjoyment, safety, and that of my passengers.

Taming of the Impreza

The Premier A/S made a difference in the way the 2015 base Impreza rides. There seems to be more cushion over bumps compared to what I experienced with the Yokos. It rides quieter as well. On the turnpike the car (stick shift) gets 41.4 mpg. So I'd say the investment was worth it. Snow? That's next.

"PREMIER A/S"

I have a 2010 Impala. The original TPC, Brand X, tires had 37,445 miles and were displaying operational signs of Tire Aging @ 60 months. My experiences with Michelin Tires has always been great. I purchased a set of MICHILIN PREMIER A/S 225/55/R17 MXV4 97V. What a great decision! We, my wife and I, went to lunch today and the ride was comfortably smooth. The new tires were completely road silent and gave good steering Total Performance. I look forward to ongoing comfort, safety and performance from our purchase.

Poor quality; tires show premature excessive wear

Couldn't be any more disappointed in these tires. Despite Michelin's reputation for quality, these tires are showing excessive wear well before the stated mileage warranty. We have only 31,554 miles on a set of tires guaranteed for 60,000 miles, and a tread depth gauge already shows yellow. What's most aggravating is my Honda dealer noticed the excessive wear back on 10/28/22, when our vehicle was in for an oil change and tire rotation. They measured the tread depth at 5/32". This is only 2.7 years after we purchased the tires new. If that's the best Michelin can do, I'll take my business elsewhere.

Marie, sorry to read your tires are in need of replacement so soon. But remember, there is a mileage warranty on the tires. One of our team members will be in touch to work with you and your retailer in initiating a warranty mileage claim.

Aweful treadlife!

My Honda Odyssey has all new OEM suspension and I keep them rotated and I'm not even going to make it to 15,000 miles. This is absolutely insane. I was expecting at least half because I live in Arizona and it's very hot and I understand these are a soft compound tire which is why they ride so amazing. Problem is I have to wait until they gets to 2/32 and then replace the two that are really bad and wait for the other two and have them staggered. Which doesn't help if I need to take a trip with my family. I have been a long-term Michelin customer but I'm just sick and tired of dealing with ridiculous treadwear. if you've got money to burn, these are great tires because they do ride amazing. But the mileage I'm getting is going to be very similar to what I got out of the last Pilot Super Sports I had on my Acura. Heck, even the AS3+s that I have on my all-wheel drive Acura are wearing better then the tires on my Honda Odyssey

They got rid of the MXV4 for this?

After excellent performance from a set of MXV4 (H) on Lexus ES350 I learned the MXV4 had been replaced by the Premier A/S and I eagerly purchased a set. Extremely disappointing! Has fairly good traction dry/wet with worsened gas mileage of about 5%. Theoretical snow traction irrelevant. The A/S has a harsh, stiff ride which transmits every minor road surface imperfection as jarring and vibration to the cabin. Loud on asphalt, but the 'singing' noise on concrete pavement is so loud as to be distracting and tiresome. Looking for a real replacement in terms of ride and quiet for the MXV4? This expensive tire is not it.
