Great Ride

So far so good! Good comfort, handling, traction and safety! Traction got us through the snows this winter! Will keep monitoring durability!

Good but didn't last

These tires came with my 2018 Tesla Model 3 LR RWD and have been pretty good overall, but they didn't last. For the performance of the car (mid-low tier by Tesla standards), they held up pretty well as far as traction in the warm dry and wet. Even at very low tread (seen in pictures), they gripped a steep, rain-socked driveway all the way up with no problems. Tire rotations at 10k miles FEB2020 and 18k miles NOV2021. By service logs, treadwear was 6/32" at 13.5k miles and 2/32" at 19k miles. I ran them longer since I was surprised it was already time to change the tires that are rated for 45k miles! They finally started to feel a little off when changing lanes on the highway, probably due to going bald at 28k miles. Like many others, I am disappointed in the wear and probably won't get these again.

OK but didn't last the warranted period.

Tires only lasted 35,000 of 55,000 warranted miles.

Smooth quiet ride, much better than primacy tour tires!

Bought them a few days ago and there's huge difference. I drive a Tesla and only found out after the purchase that I need special EV tires but these are great they're quiet and smooth. (For context: My previous tires were completely bald, there was no groove, it was completely smooth and would slide on dry surfaces so anything may be better than those lol)

Very quiet ride!

I have a "classic" VW Turbo S New Beetle, 2002, and it needed new tires. I called the Michelin Man for recommendations on tires, and the rep advised me to get the Primacy tires for my VW. I can't tell you what a difference these great tires have made in the "quiet ride" and the ease of handling. I am very impressed, and pleased, and feel that I really got my money's worth with this purchase.

Great Buy

I bought 4 new Primacy MXM4's for my 2013 BMW 328i Convertible. I had no confidence in the Continentals that were on it. From the moment I drove away, I could feel the difference. Much more sure-footed and reaction time to steering inputs was reduced. Have 5k miles on them with Long Island winter weather and have no problem taking out in the rain. No reason to try it in the snow.

Solid performance in dry and wet conditions.

These are OEM on my Tesla 3, and so far I like them. They provide great dry traction when accelerating, cornering, and during everyday driving. They also handle uneven and rough roadways really well, both with absorption of the shock and dampening of the noise. The real test came during recent heavy rain. I was driving home from work at night after a heavy downpour and didn't see a large pool of water on the freeway, which I couldn't avoid in time. Fortunately these tires rolled right through it, never hydroplaning and allowing me to maintain control of my vehicle. I can see why these tires are chosen to be on Teslas.

Michelin MXM4

I had the Pilot MXM4 tires on two Acura's TL Tech's and put over 58, 000 on both vehicles before replacing with Pilot Primacy tires. During the period of ownership I never had a sever handling problem, in snow or heavy rain or a out of balance problem. The only thing that annoyed me was the tire noise they created, especially when traveling 1000 miles per day. When time to replace the OEM's I gave consideration to other brands, just based on less tire noise but after reviewing the performance of the MXM$'s I had to stay with Michelin and search for another model tire. Deciding upon the Primacy model, I was shocked as to have such a quiet ride, and then to see the new Acura RLX had the same tire as OEM. Performance of the Pilot MXM4's is gratifying especially pushing them to MY Limits in the Rockies. Truly a superior tire as long as you don't mind some extra road noise.

Solid Luxury Performance Tires

These tires, MXM4 in 225/45/17 are on my everyday ride. They replaced a set of Pilot A/S Plus, which replaced Pilot's. I only run these 3 out of 4 seasons, using dedicated winter tires. For the 3 seasons I do run these they hold up very well. Certainly grippy enough for everyday driving with spirited moments. They actually grip better than the Pilot A/S Plus'. Hydroplaning resistance is also better. As for noise, these are very well designed and are actually rather quiet at all speeds. The only suggestion I would make to improve them is for a rim guard rib in the next generation.
