My new favorite tire.

I have a 2WD Lexus RX350. Last year i went to the snow with 50% front and 70% rear on another manufacturer tire. Chain restrictions were in effect. I lied, said it was AWD. (DISCLAIMER: I'm a professional driver and a rescue driver (my job to never get stuck) so i have the experience to drive in these conditions. I DO NOT suggest you do the same. It will cost you your life. The purpose of this is for performance comparison.) Any slight hill, my traction light was coming on. I was climbing slight freeway hills at 15-20mph just unable to get traction. Vehicles were stopped ahead on a downhill and it took 800ft to stop from 35mph. This year, i put 4 new Primacy MXM4s on my SUV. Still had plenty of tread from last year's tires but i wasn't about to go through that again. This year the weather was much worse. Much more snow. On the same interstate, my SUV was having no trouble keeping up with the AWD vehicles and 4x4s. It was so bad, some AWD vehicles (Subaru Outback likely with bad tires) had to put chains on. And braking, night and day from last year. Now, all season performance, my SUV was averaging 25mpg with the old tires. 4 of these and I'm seeing 28-29mpg at 65mph on flat ground. That's a significant improvement.

Premium tires that perform. Worth it!

We were not able to find the replacement tires for our "Pilot MXM4" OEM tires that were on the vehicle when it was new.With 60K miles we were getting a little low on tread . We found the Primacy model tire and were pleased with it's similarities to the Pilot tire. It has so far delivered great handling in wet or dry, a quiet ride, and a great tread wear promise. I believe with the 3K miles so far, that we will be as pleased with the Primacy as we were with the original Pilot tires.

Generally Great tire

These tires are so far superior to most oem tires that manufacturers stick on cars it is not even funny. They are great in the rain, I mean great. They are quiet and have very good dry grip. They are even more than passable in the snow. the only knock I can give them (and it may be partly my driving styles fault) is they do not last nearly as long as you might believe from the rating. After 30,000 they are pretty much shot and I am hesitant to use them through another winter due to lack of tread. Overall though these are excellent for all but the most hard core cars and drivers.

Great all around tires

For the Acura TL these are hands down the best tires. The first set lastest 35k miles which I thought was a little low so I bought another supposedly equivalent set of tires and the loss of quality compared to the Michelin was immediately noticeable. The new tires had a lot of road noise that wasn't there with the Michelins plus the difference in build quality and appearance was very noticeable. After 10k miles a tire separated, so I was liberated from the bad set and went right back to these!

Noise problems

Its a shame this tire is so noisy at lower speeds since it does everything else so well. I purchased these tires recently to replace the Pilot HX MXM4 original equipment tires inorder to get a quieter tire. The Pilots are good but tend get noisy about half way through their life. I was extrememly surprised to find that these tires were noisier than the Pilots when new. In fact these are the noisiest new tires I have ever had in nearly 30 years of buying tires. They ride and handle very well in wet and dry conditions, but the noise level is going to make living with these tires very difficult. What a shame.

What's wrong with mine?

This tire came standard on my 2011 Lincoln MKS (purchased used with 13,000 miles) and they perform flawlessly until a little snow and then it's like I have a set of slicks. I live in Minnesota and that's not a good thing. Seriously, other cars pull away from me and I just slip. I have to turn off the traction control because it will absolutely not move otherwise. I love Michelin tires. I have had a policy of no other brand but there is something wrong with these. As I look for replacement tires before this winter everything keeps pointing me to these tires. What to do?

GREAT TIRE!!!!!!!

this is a great tire. This is my first set of Michelins and I am sold. I will never buy any other tire other then Michelins. this tire is really good in the snow and really good. The comfort in the reviews don't do it justice. I would make it a 10 if not 11. I will write a review telling you how good the life of the tire is.

Better than stock

These tires handle very well and give a smooth ride. They are a better ride than the stock tires and give less road noise then the MXM4 Pilot Sport A/S. I prefer these tires for casual driving, the pilot sports did have better cornering though. Comfort and fuel efficiency are my two biggest concerns and these give both.

I haven't had them long ...

I haven't had them long enough yet to give the most accurate answers. I will be needing to buy another set for the same kind of car (I have 2 Pontiac Vibes), but I'm not sure that I can afford another set. Winning some of that money could make all the difference!

Tesla model 3 25K

These tires were standard on my new Model 3. They lasted about 25,000 miles and in snow they were scary. As they wore down noise became unbearable. While driving on a chip seal road I needed to put on my Apple EarPods Pro using the noise cancellation feature. Noise was 75db at highway speeds. On a smooth road at the same speed sound was 64db. Overall the tires were just OK. I am trying out the Primacy tour AS next. Also looks like no dealers honors the mileage warranty. We have 9 vehicle in our family and 5 of them have Michelin tires on them.
