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.

No tread left at 30,000 miles

I purchased a new Kia Sportage in 2022. I recently noticed the tires seem to have no tread, and during my recent oil change service, the dealer stated I needed new tires - AT UNDER 30,000 miles!!! I'm currently at 31,000 and don't feel safe driving them with so little tread. Very disappointed. I will be replacing with Goodyear tires.

Smooth Quiet Ride

I just purchased these tires on July 1 and had them installed on July 10 when they arrived at the warehouse. Installation was pretty quick. My ride to work this morning on the highway felt like I had a new car. The ride was super quiet and super smooth. The weather is dry so I can't rate grip of tire in 'weather' conditions, however, they grip the road really well in normal climate. I will update review if anything changes. So far, so good!

Like these tires

I bought these tires in Nov 2020 for a 2016 Honda Accord EX-L V6. From the first drive home, I could tell a significant positive handling and ride difference vs higher mileage warranty tires (stiffer sidewalls) I’ve owned previously. Not having been satisfied with the ride and handling of higher mileage warranty Michelin tires purchased in the past, which didn’t come close to the stated mileage wear warranty anyway, I was willing to give up a longer wear warranty to have a better performing tire. I got it in these tires. I love their handling and ride and have never had an issue in wet weather. While I do not expect I will get 55K miles out of these tires (mileage warranty for the Primacy Tour A/S tires), even if I get 45K miles, which seems the best I’ll do, I like these tires. So much so, that in Nov 2024 I bought a second set for a 2009 Lexus ES350. Same comments as above, with regard to ride and handling. I would recommend these tires with the caveat not to expect more than 40-50K miles. For me personally, I can live with the performance vs mileage tradeoff.

Super super super best performance tires i had ever

i had used this tire for more than 3 years, the most favorite performances are comfort and silent and additionally tread life service is better than competitors, as of today 61,000km, however i could find remaining tread depth more than 3mm/tires, it is super super good tires i had ever used so far during my driving experiences from 26 years old; that is for 26years.

Quiet and grippy

I needed new tires for my Mazda CX five, and on the recommendation of the dealership, I purchased these high end Michelin tires. It was amazing the difference. The tires are so quiet, and very well gripped in wet conditions, and beautiful on the car. They are premium in quality, and so far I am exceptionally pleased with them. It really is like driving a new car, after finally replacing the OEM tires that came with the car. And Michelin backs these tires with a wonderful warranty, and I can replace them or have them serviced at any Mazda dealership. I highly recommend them.

Great grip/bad feel

Bought these tires at end of August. Been trouble since they were put on. Road force after road force and sending back tires cause they fail and getting new ones not that much better. we just can't get the car to ride smooth. Tires do grip well though in rain and dry. City speed is smooth, highway speeds causes harsh ride, vibrations. An overall tiring drive.

Pre Mature wear, No grip at all in winter months.

Primacy Tour A/S came stock on my 2020 Kia Telluride. Less than 40000km or 24800 miles and they need to be replaced. Worst all season tire I have ever used. They had little to no grip in the winter months on an all wheel drive vehicle and with this pre mature wear I would definitely look elsewhere.

Great Traction & Great Ride!

These came as original equipment on my 2017 Chrysler Pacifica Touring L Plus. Great ride and traction. They are very quiet and as Michelin says they are as good worn as they are new. I did keep them rotated and balanced and managed 48K from them. They could have gone a bit further but I had bits of rubber start coming out of them. I hadn't seen anything quite like it in all my years of driving. I took them to get looked at and the dealer said the same thing. They are a soft tire and it was like bits of the rubber were peeling off. I decided to call it good at 48K. My only flaw in them seems to be that from reviews I have read, and from the tire dealer is that many of these tires don't make the mileage mark, and I did really well getting to where I got. I replaced them with the Michelin Defender2. We'll see how these compare.

Low mileage not worth your money

This tire came with my Lincoln I have 8,000 miles on a 55,000 mile tire and they are already halfway through the life of the tire. I have done 2 rotations on the tires so they are all are at 5/32nds. I will be lucky if the tire will last 2 more months .
