Good Quality, Questionable Value

These Tires were original to my FWD 2014 Buick Regal Turbo. Rotated every 5K miles. They were comfortable, decent performance and overall good tires. I recently replaced them with Continental Extreme Contact DWS06 Plus. These last a good long time, 100,000 miles, 50,000 miles each tire on the drive wheels which is right on par with the warranty. The reason I didn't purchase these again is because they are really expensive. I understand that they are touring sport tires so they have to be both comfortable and have good performance and tread life but when i switched to the continentals, the new tires were just as comfortable even though they're ultra performance all season. These tires run even more expensive than the critically acclaimed Michelin pilot sports. The MXM4s also have pretty thin soft side wall, maybe for comfort but it was flushed with the rim so no protection from curb rashing the rim. The rubber compound is softer which makes for great stopping in wet but the trade off is they don't last as long as rivals, especially for heavier vehicles like EVs. Overall a Good tire, but for the money you can buy a tire that offers more for less, including offerings from Michelin.

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.

Civlized Performance

Michelin is known for smooth and quiet tires , but this tire is a great performer also. The handling at highway plus speeds is awesome and they handle the rain as good as any performance tire.A very good tire for maximum comfort without giving up any performance.

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!

Michelin Primacy, not impressed

I have the Michelin Primacy MXM4 on my 2015 Hyundai Genesis. I lease this car and don't put extensive miles on it. I am sitting at 22,000 miles 2 years into my lease and when I went in for my scheduled oil change I asked them to rotate my tires, at which the dealership said I needed new tires. These are a 55,000 mile tire and i have 1/32nd left in tread on my rear tires. Contacted Hyundai who denied the claim. My fronts have 7/32 left on the treads. I rotated the first time at 10,000 miles. I would expect more out of Michelin tires.

The peace of mind, excellent performance

I drive over 35,000 miles every year. Rain, snow, sunny weather. It does not matter - I have to get there. Over the past 15 years I tried different tires (mostly the ones that came on a new/used car) and I always come back to Michelin. I do not remember last time I got less then 50,000 miles on a set and never had one fail me. This weekend I am going to put another set on my Toyota Avalon. It will be 4th set on a car with 170,000 miles. Primacy MXV4 has done really well for the last 120,000 miles so there is no reason to change!

I'm sold on Michelin

I purchased a set of michelins 1988 right after our per owned car hydroplaned with my wife and two small children. I promised myself that I would never again skimp on tires. Since that time I have ran Michelin' exclusively on my two BMW's and my Acura.... I have never been disappointed. Chuck Diesel A completely satisfied Customer

Great in rain and dry roads but not an all season tire.

I got the tires installed just before winter. Immediately felt the difference in handling. Terrific on the dry road and in heave rain. Total control in heavy rain at decent speeds. I saw no improvement in mileage at speeds over 100k but I noticed some improvement when driving between 90 and 100k. Driving in fresh snow scared the living out of me since the tires had no grip whatsoever. On packed snow they got me to where I was going provided that I drove much slower than I am used to. This is NOT AN ALL SEASON TIRE. Too pricey for just 3 seasons. Bring back the Harmony tire for all seasons.

Great tire

I drive 70 miles a day for work alone, mostly highway and I must say these tires are far better than the bridgestones that came with my vehicle. No road noise, smooth ride, great grip on dry or wet pavement, and cut right through snow. This is the first time using Michelin tires and they have gained a loyal customer from now on in.

Treadwear is lacking

2018 Tesla Model 3 OEM - tires wear out fast after approximately 25k miles. Thanks to Covid 19, have to drive much less miles now, but still, no where near 55k rated. I don't drive aggressively and like to maximize my miles/kWh. Realistically, I didn't expect to run these tires out to 50k, but after researching replacement tires it's a well known complaint. Perhaps Michelin should lower the treadwear (warranty) expectations to 20-25k on this tire.
