Smooth quiet ride for 30K

These tires were so much quieter and smoother than the factory tires. I thought I would get 40,00 miles even though rated for much more. I was wrong. I only got 30,00 miles. Its a trade off. One tire developed sidewall bubble. Another blew out and the replacement tire blew out. Bad driving? Coincidence? Not so good quality? Maybe all of the above. Good value? - probably not. They're expensive but they do ride nice.

Held up very well, 50k miles

Came on my Ford Mustang Mach E (EV) and I wouldn't be replacing them at 50k miles except I have a screw in 1 tire, finish nail in another tire, and a plug already in a 3rd tire.....thank Hurricane Ian for that. Great tire and I will be replacing them with the same one!

Good Tire

I just purchased these tires. I rated them "Good" only because I don't know yet how they will perform. However, I had an incident on the road which made me to feel a bit better. I hit a large stone on the 60 MPH. I thought that I would loose the tire but it withstand the impact and did not get damaged to my surprise.

Life much lower than stated

I had these tires on new 2021 XT-5 Premium Luxury. With 33000 miles, I have - 9mm of brake disc on all 4 sides - No need for wheel alignment - no pulling on one side or uneven wear - Lifetime average of 23.7 miles / gallon on 2L Turbo engine - All four tires are left with 4/32 tread. This means all other parameters show an excellent driving record, still the tires are worn out much earlier than expected

Horrible Harmonic humming noise emitting from the new tires.

I had these tires installed on my 2019 Lexus NX300. The tires have been balanced twice and aligned. I have an annoying hum at 30mph. I can feel it through the steering wheel. I totally dissatisfied with these new tires. My tire shop doesn't have an answer. I cannot continue to drive with tires that emit this hum.

Bad tread wear

These tires came on my new 2022 chevy Equinox premier. Bought the car last year car has 26,000 miles and the dealership told me yesterday I need 4 new tires. And the dealership won’t stand behind them. Absolutely disappointed in the tread wear. I’ll never purchase Michelin tires.

Very Disappointed

I bought a new 2021 Chevy Blazer, came with Primacy Tour A/S. The Blazer has 25,600 miles and the tires are rotated by the Chevy Dealership every oil change. I don't drive the Blazer much, as it is my wife's. We received less than 2 inches of snow this weekend, as was driving the Blazer I was sliding all over the road. The traction from stop to accelerate in AWD is terrible. I was traveling about 20 MPH and slide 25 feet through an intersection. I pulled over and examined the tires, these is really no tread left land the outer parts of the tires are rounded. These are nowhere close to a 55,000-mile tire.

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.

The Best

Have now had these tires for more then a month. They are the smoothest and quietest tires I have ever had. I realized this in just the first 100 feet of use! My last set of tires began to chunk, they were not Michelin. Had these tires because could not get Michelins and regretted getting them. But now back to Michelins, and enjoying them on my Volt.

Lots of tire noise

Michelin has been my only tire choice for years. I currently have four vehicles, all with Michelin tires. I recently installed the Primacy Tour A/S and they are significantly noisier than any of the other Michelins (LT, Pilot 4s, Defender T) on my other cars. They handle well and are smooth, as I've come to expect from Michelin.
