Near Miss

On our trip from Pittsburgh, PA to Sarasota, FL in September 2012 and traveling through West Virginia in the rain the second vehicle (Ford F-150) ahead of us did a 360 and hit the concrete barrier traveling at 70 mph + we were able to come to a controlled stop without any fears of hitting the car directly in front of us or the F-150. I believe the MXM4's were the reason for the safe controlled stop. THANK YOU Michelin!! PS: The driver of the F-150 was OK but, the front end of the truck was a mess.

Very disappointed in these tires

They came with the Lexus and that was part of the overall buying decision as we've preferred this brand for decades.These were always a bit noisier than what we've been used to, but just after hitting 32,000 it felt like we were riding in a tank. The road noise is unbelievably loud and the handling has gone to pot. I expected to get 45-55k from these tires. Has Michelin quality dropped? Looks like we'll have to research other brands as our trust in Michelin quality and longevity has seveerly faded.

Tread Life Sucks

We bought these tires in October 2015 and have had them rotated every 5000 miles. I took the car in for an oil change and tire rotation Monday and was called to the service center by the auto technician to look at the tires he gauged them at 3/32 with only 10114 miles on these tires. Do not buy these tires.

My mechanic noticed them right away..

My mechanic noticed the new tires right away.. said they looked good.. asked how I liked them.. I said I'd only had them 5,000 miles.. but so far so good.. told him I'd keep giving him updates.. if they made it to 60,000 they'd get my thumbs up.. sounds like he'll choose them as his next tire too.

A Transformation with MXM4

I have just installed a set of Primacy MXM-4 on my 2006 Infiniti M35X. They have completely transformed the ride; the comparison with the original tires is amazing. Road noise is less, the ride is more comfortable and tracking is greatly improved - the car now adheres to the line chosen for it. I also ought to mention that over forty years ago I drove from London to Afghanistan with Michelin Xs on my Land Rover - rough unpaved roads, deserts, mountains on the way, but no punctures and the Xs were still in good order on return. These two experiences are going to be hard to beat. Merci bien, Monsieur Bibendum.

Sure Footed and Reliable

Drove to Lake George, NY from Jupiter, FL-total of 7,100 miles round trip. Hit white squalls near JAX(Similar to winter white outs). Remainder of trip was mostly dry w/occasional heavy rains. Never once hydroplaned or skidded. Smooth, soft, quiet ride...although tire pressure was 6# low. Local WPB dealer forgot to check tire pressure during tire rotation, nor did they check windshield washer fluid. Added proper air pressure for return trip and noted firmer, more responsive handling. Great stopping/slowing when required as drivers occasionally drifted/changed lanes with out looking. I'll remain a loyal customer!

You can actually feel you have more control

Got these tire few days ago, I was using something else before. I feel the car have more grip on dry and wet road, I haven't try it in snow yet but for sure these one is better than my old one. I drive a Ford Fusion hybrid 2014 with 18" wheel, and I am very happy using this all season tire.

Poor performance

I have 2016 c300 Mercedes, I live in suburban and only drove 21k and went for annual inspections , the report came back as was “ I need two new tires in the rear , there is severe inside wear. Use extreme caution in ALL conditions.” Replaced now. I think there must be a defect in this models . This is ridiculous, I hardly drive this car.

Disappointed

I agree with a previous reviewer. These tires made a huge difference on my car years ago. But I just put the Primacy on my SUV and I getting lower gas mileage. Where I drive and how I drive hasn't changed. Only the tires. I enjoy the comfort of these tires but the price wasn't worth lower mileage.

Best tire I've ever purchased!!!

My 2008 2.0T Passat came equipped with Continental's and I was very pleased with the OEM set up. I enjoy my sport mode transmission setting and use it often in the rolling hills and back roads of Bucks County PA. I ran my tire tread off in about 32,000, which is about 50% sooner than my history with other cars and OEM same tire set ups. I did replace my OEM tires with the tire as I did like the rain and handling experience that I had, though disappointed in the 32,000 mile tread life. My 2nd set of Continentals preformed and lasted just as the OEM's. I wanted to keep the same rain feeling and handling that I enjoyed but wanted a longer tread life, so I shopped the internet and asked others who also enjoy pushing their cars on the back roads.. After about 5,000 miles on my Primacy's I am happy to write these are simply the best tires I have ever owned (My first Michelins were on a 1972 Lincoln Mark IV) they have better wet road traction than I could have ever expected and when I'm "pushing" through tight back road turns, I fell like I'm glued to the ground! Hard for me to believe that I'm enjoying my VW more now than the day I test drove it when after about a 2 mile drive said. let's go talk numbers. If you enjoy wet and dry road safety, handling, improved gas mileage (I improved about 0.3 of a mile city and about 0.5 highway) couple with a 55,000 tread life warranty and a quiet ride, you have no other choice than Primacy, GREAT JOB Michelin, thanks!!!
