Tire wears out

These tires came on my 2021 Kia Telluride that I bought new. At the last oil change/maintenance check the tread was at 4/32 and I was told I’d need tires before winter. The car only has 26000 miles on it. Seems ridiculous they didn’t last longer. I would not recommend.

Great life, other reviews probably just cannot drive

These came factory on our RAV4. These tires did just fine in Idaho for the last 3 years (51,000 miles) in snow, ice, rain, and dry conditions. No idea where these other people are getting their reviews, I think its the fact they cannot drive. My wife had zero issues in the snow and rain as well. We are due for a new set and will be replacing with these.

Only got 25,000 miles, not the advertised 55,000 miles

These tires came with my 2021 GMC Acadia. I haven't even hit 25,000 miles and they now need replacing. I rotated the tires on time and checked air pressures every month according to the owner's manual. I see in the warranty that "Original Equipment tires are excluded". Based on my experience, and what I'm seeing from other reviews with similar experiences, these tires must be very poorly manufactured. Michelin should be ashamed for selling these, and even more ashamed for not having a solutions for those of us who only got 20-40k life from these tires.

Horrible ride

I bought these in 2021 and will never purchase again. They ride horrible, especially over any slightly rough-ish roads or bumps it feels like you’re hitting your actual wheel. I have had them checked several times to make sure they are inflated correctly and good condition because the ride is so bad and have been told the tires are fine they are just not smooth riding. I have them on my 2016 Honda Accord and cannot wait to change them out!!

Great tire for BMW

Although Michelin's website notes the Primacy Tour A/S won't fit on my 2017 BMW 440 xi, the exact sizes [225/40R19 and 255/35R19] I require were available. ?? My local Michelin dealer wasn't familiar with these tires, and had to special order them for me. The good news is I received fresh 2020 manufacture DOT codes. After just a month, I'm delighted with the new tores, as they are quiet, stick well on wet roads...and even light snow! Michelin even makes the sidewalls with rim protectors to avoid curb damage. I couldn't be happier.

Cobblestone ride

Less than 4K miles on these tires and I have tried a range of tire pressures to alleviate the problem - it feels like I am driving on a cobblestone street. Alignment, balancing, suspension parts - nothing helps. I have purchased many sets of Michelin tires but this set has totally turned me off to Michelin.

Low mileage/excessive tread wear

They came with the 2021 Ford Escape that I bought new in 2021. I check and inflate as needed every month as required and the outside edges of the tires are wearing through to the first set of plies. Very disappointed with only 45,000 miles. I've had original Michelins on previous cars that got me 70-80,000 miles.

2021 Ford Escape Owner, When the shoulder of the tread on one side of a tire wears faster than the rest of the tire, this can result from a variety of conditions (misalignment, loose or worn suspension components, hard cornering, improper tire rotation practices, misapplication, high crown roads or non-uniform mounting. We'd recommend taking your vehicle to an authorized Michelin retailer for an inspection of the tires. You are welcome to contact us at 866-866-6605 8am-5pm EST upon getting their inspection.

Very disappointed worn out in 2.5 years at 35,500 miles

Very dissatisfied with the tread wear of these tires. Bought car in September of 2020, A 2020 Hyundai Tucson Sport, I have owned the car for 2.5 years and 35,500 miles and it has been religiously serviced by the Dealer. Came with OE Michelin Primary Tour A/S 245/45/19 tires. Thought the Michelin band was the #1 tire company but fooled me, currently these tires are sitting at 4/32’s of tread left and will have to be replaced after the next tire rotation. Pretty sad for a tire at should last about 5 years and 55,000 miles, Plus my commute is nothing aggressive some highway and city driving a total of 24 miles a day. When the time comes which will be very shortly will be looking other brands other than Michelin for replacement

Range disappointment

These tires came stock on my 2021 Ford Mach-E. Tires are now completely worn at 55K and need to be replaced. There's no way they would ever make it to the 90,000 kilometer range claims. I am quite disappointed as Michelin has always treated me well on all my past vehicles. I'm now obviously in the market for replacement tires and my confidence in the brand is now in question. I also work in the transportation field and I'm responsible for a large fleet of truck/trailer tires which typically we would purchase Michelin but at this point I'm not so sure we should.

Dangerous tires.

Have this on my Genesis GV70 as factory tires with 9500 miles on it now after two years of light driving. Leave in Colorado and recently had two consecutive snow storms. This tires put my life at risk by almost spinning off highway in a light snow covered road. With great effort I managed to keep it from not spining 360 and not hitting the median or running off the cliff. Scarry and dangerous. Decided to park it till spring and drive my old truck. It is a lease so not worth to spend money for half year left. Never had this issues with BFG or Goodyear.
