Just bought a 2024 Santa Cruz (small pick-up) with these on it. First day, I barely scraped a sidewalk and the sidewall tore right through. I have never had that happen with any car or truck I ever owned or drove in my life. Then I happen to see others have the same issue with lack of durability! I need this resolved by Michelin.

From an engineering perspective, it would appear that the tire design was not considered when running on sanjas, (drainage cuts). The tread pattern runs parallel to these cuts and as it skips, from cut to solid, the friction fluctuates causing significant vibration in the perpendicular direction. This effect is further magnified when on ice and wet sanja roadways. It feels like the vehicle is hydroplaning. On non-sanja roadways, the tires perform as expected.

2 of the 4 leak like a sieve at 12,000 miles. Came on new 2024 Nissan Frontier. Multiple tiny leaks in 2 of the tires without punctures. Can’t believe Michelin would put their name on them. Can believe Nissan would choose to put them on their vehicles. Only 42,000 miles short of guaranteed mileage. Worthless.

First off, this tire has a bad reputation. I think the reason people don’t like it, is they’re using it for the wrong purpose. The Primacy is not for off road use. It will perform well for long trips, but its life won’t last like the defenders. This is a fuel efficient tire-low rolling resistance. It is best suited for stop/start city driving, and/or highway driving if you are going to drive less than 55,000 miles in 5-7 years. 7 years is about as long as you want to keep any tire on the road; thanks to the sun and oxygen in the air.

I purchased a brand new off the trailer 2022 Kia Telluride EX in March 2022, which had these tires installed OEM. The tires rode just fine, but I only made it to 30K miles before the treads have worn down requiring replacement. I am not looking forward to replacing these so soon and may be looking for another brand.

Came on my 2022 Nissan Frontier. I Took it off highway on a graveled county road for the first time with less than 2400 miles on them. A rock punched up right through the top of the tread and ruined the tire. I spend a lot of miles off pavement. I feel these tires are cheap (dealer provided) and too soft for me to trust off pavement. I put on my spare ( a smaller 16" rimmed tire of different manufacturer than Michelin) and crippled back to nearest tire store. They sold me a Michelin Defender LTX M/S to replace the ruined Primacy LTX, I'm hoping the dealer will now step up and at least put 3 defender LTX on my Frontier and replace the under sized spare with the 4th defender and a new 17" rim

These tires came as standard on my 2022 Nissan Frontier, I got a puncture in one in less than 3000km's of driving. The tire was ruined. I was not offroading, i was driving on a regular gravel road. If you stick to paved surfaces exclusively they may be ok.

Primacy 265/65-18's came on a new Chevrolet Silverado 4x4 . All was good until first time on grooved pavement when it started rocking side to side with less than 500 miles on the vehicle I thought something was wrong with the truck this was not the case! As soon as vehicle left the grooved pavement handling returned to normal.

Quite ride in the SUV with the new tires
