Terrible wear on this tire

At 2.5 years driving my car and less than 30,000 miles I'm being told I need to replace my Michelin Primacy. I am not a racer with my car and am no disappointed to see many reviews from multiple sites stating the same issue with all makes/models of cars. Not sure I would recommend these tires.

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.

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!!!

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!

Expect nother but the best!

I decied to choose Micheline based on a racing friend who uses them exclusively. I chose the MXM4 and they didnt't dissapoint. I have a 2010 Taurus Limited that sees all 4 seasons. These tires stick to the road when cornering at higher than normal speeds and does a great job in the snow too. There is little road noise and they ride nice and smooth. I will consider Micheline again when its time for new tires on this or another car.

Tires run well, but wear too quickly

Got them on a new 2015 Lexus CT-200 f-series. Happy with their quiet and handling. However down to 6/64 tread at 30K check, and service advisor says I will need new tires in 2K miles. That's a LOT less milage than the claimed 55K "warranty" that no local dealer will honor (including Lexus). They were rotated every 5K miles by dealer. Use car to commute to work on freeway ~40 miles each way.

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.

Great Handling, Tread wears a bit too fast

I bought a 2018 Honda Accord Touring new with these tires. I drive pretty tame in Kansas...flat...no curves. I do a lot of gentle engine breaking and with a CVT there isn't much exciting about 0-60, so these tires live a boring life. The car lives in a garage too at night. I got about 35,000 on the original set and decided to replace with the same tire. I am at 68,000 and it appears I am about 4-5k miles from a third set. I used to run Goodyear Assurance Comfortred's and get the advertised mileage (80k) in older Accords when I used to travel highways all the time. I think 45-50k would be realistic on these tires. 35k just seems low. Also, once you get down to about 4-5mm of tread depth, the noise really picks up.

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.

Great all arounder

I drive 50,000 a year between all my cars. I replaced Michelin Energy Savers with the Primacy MXM4. I liked the Energy Savers. They did provide a measurable MPG improvement from the prior Pilot HX MXM4. That said the Energy Savers were a little noisier and less inspiring in the corners. The Primacy MXM4 is a superior tire in comfort, road noise and handling. Gas mileage is about the same or slightly less but the tradeoff in less noise and better comfort and handling is worth it.
