Good Tires, But not 55,000 mile Tires

I bought these tires for my 2017 Honda Ridgeline after the factory tires wore out at 35,000. I now have 78,000 miles and need new tires, so I didn't get 55,000 miles out of them and I am not wild driver, more professional and cautious driver who rotates ever 4,000 miles. Maybe because I live in a hot climate they wore out at 10,000 miles sooner. I thought they gave a good ride, were quiet, and handled well in the heavy rains of Florida. I bought another set even though I know they will not last 55,000 miles because they seemed to stop well and had the other qualities I liked. I do a lot of highway driving at 75mph and feel safe with them.

Good performance but falls short on wear.

These tires perform well and have great stopping and stability when needed. Probably saved us from colliding into an accident that occurred right in front of us on the freeway. However, the tread wears out much faster than expected. I have 25,000 miles on mine and need to replace them. And now that the thread is low the ride has become rough.

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.

Totally Satisfied With Michelin Tires

Michelin Primacy Tour A/S tires are original equipment on my 2021 GMC Acadia Denali which I purchased new. The tires now have traveled 22K miles and still perform like the day I bought the vehicle. The tread wear is minimal or what I would consider normal. The tires remain quiet, handle well in all weather conditions including Minnesota snow and ice, and I must say these are exceptionally smooth riding tires. I have owned upwards of 50 vehicles in my life and have driven well over 2 million miles. The Michelin Primacy Tour A/S is among the best tire I’ve owned. I also have a 2020 Yukon Denali that rides on Michelin Defender LTX M/S2 tires and these are top of the line in performance and ride as well.

Hydroplanes a lot.

As soon as it rains this tires are dangerous to drive. I experienced 9 set of tires (from different companies) throughout of my driving life and I have never seen tires this bad. It hydroplanes a lot. Vehicles becomes impossible to handle. Dangerous to drive.

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.

2016 Mazda 6

Superior tire from original Dunlop’s. Mazda engineers should have spec’d this tire from the start. From road noise, wet/dry stability, comfort, wear, and even light snow this tire is exponentially better in every way the Dunlop wasn’t. Another win for the Michelin team!

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.

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.

not a great tire

Bought a new Terrain which had these tires from factory. During winter conditions (snow packed roads), I didn't feel comfortable driving with these tires. Seasons have changed to spring, Now driving in rain, these tires are terrible. Seems like they want to hydroplane. I have to reduce speeds so much that i'm being passed like i'm standing still. I can say the tires are smooth riding.
