LOUD road noise.

These tires came installed on GMC 2022 Terrain SLT and the road noise is horrendous. With the radio turned up, road noise is still loud. The vehicle has 3,100 miles on it after taking I recently drove it on a 2400 mile vacation road trip. Is it the construction of this vehicle or the tires that account for the loud road noise? As winter is approaching in Colorado I was going to by X-Ice Michelins which I have had on Subarus I've owned. But the loud noise of the Primacy Tour tire makes me hesitate to buy. Michelin tire again.

Lots of tire noise

Michelin has been my only tire choice for years. I currently have four vehicles, all with Michelin tires. I recently installed the Primacy Tour A/S and they are significantly noisier than any of the other Michelins (LT, Pilot 4s, Defender T) on my other cars. They handle well and are smooth, as I've come to expect from Michelin.

Great grip/bad feel

Bought these tires at end of August. Been trouble since they were put on. Road force after road force and sending back tires cause they fail and getting new ones not that much better. we just can't get the car to ride smooth. Tires do grip well though in rain and dry. City speed is smooth, highway speeds causes harsh ride, vibrations. An overall tiring drive.

Like these tires

I bought these tires in Nov 2020 for a 2016 Honda Accord EX-L V6. From the first drive home, I could tell a significant positive handling and ride difference vs higher mileage warranty tires (stiffer sidewalls) I’ve owned previously. Not having been satisfied with the ride and handling of higher mileage warranty Michelin tires purchased in the past, which didn’t come close to the stated mileage wear warranty anyway, I was willing to give up a longer wear warranty to have a better performing tire. I got it in these tires. I love their handling and ride and have never had an issue in wet weather. While I do not expect I will get 55K miles out of these tires (mileage warranty for the Primacy Tour A/S tires), even if I get 45K miles, which seems the best I’ll do, I like these tires. So much so, that in Nov 2024 I bought a second set for a 2009 Lexus ES350. Same comments as above, with regard to ride and handling. I would recommend these tires with the caveat not to expect more than 40-50K miles. For me personally, I can live with the performance vs mileage tradeoff.

Great Traction & Great Ride!

These came as original equipment on my 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Touring L Plus. Great ride and traction. They are very quiet and as Michelin says they are as good worn as they are new. I did keep them rotated and balanced and managed 48K from them. They could have gone a bit further but I had bits of rubber start coming out of them. I hadn't seen anything quite like it in all my years of driving. I took them to get looked at and the dealer said the same thing. They are a soft tire and it was like bits of the rubber were peeling off. I decided to call it good at 48K. My only flaw in them seems to be that from reviews I have read, and from the tire dealer is that many of these tires don't make the mileage mark, and I did really well getting to where I got. I replaced them with the Michelin Defender2. We'll see how these compare.

Awful tread life

I purchased a 2021 RAV4 Adventure with only 16,900 miles in Dec 2024, tread at 5/32 already. I actually hydroplaned recently at 21,000 miles while raining but it actually was a normal rain and nothing excessive. Seems like tread should not be this low already with these low miles, would there be any type of warranty left for these? I am going to have to replace these so I can be safe while driving. Not happy about this.

Hydroplanes a lot.

As soon as it rains this tires are dangerous to drive. I experienced 9 set of tires (from different companies) throughout of my driving life and I have never seen tires this bad. It hydroplanes a lot. Vehicles becomes impossible to handle. Dangerous to drive.

Good on dry/wet condition, but terrible on snow

These tires came with 2024 Genesis GV 70 EV. I only have 6000 miles on them. I like the look and how smooth and quiet they performed on dry and wet surfaces. As being that they are A/S tires, I expected decent performance on snow covered surfaces. But that was not the case when we got snow accumulation of 4-5 inches. It wasn't even icy condition. These tires were slipping as if they were summer tires on snow. For those who live in warmer climate, these are good tires. But I wouldn't recommend these tires for those living in colder climate.

Smooth quiet ride for 30K

These tires were so much quieter and smoother than the factory tires. I thought I would get 40,00 miles even though rated for much more. I was wrong. I only got 30,00 miles. Its a trade off. One tire developed sidewall bubble. Another blew out and the replacement tire blew out. Bad driving? Coincidence? Not so good quality? Maybe all of the above. Good value? - probably not. They're expensive but they do ride nice.

Exceptionally uncomfortable tires on rough roads

Purchased in 2022 and these ride exceptionally smooth and quiet in great roads but on rough and bumpy roads they are the worst for this price. You can feel everything on the road and my poor car stares at me! If you are living in a place with super good roads, hands down you will be happy with these..
