This tire saved my life

I was driving on the wet highway changing lanes suddenly there was stopped vehicle in front of me at 90 km an hour I had to swerve to avoid this vehicle the tires in the wet gripped like they were on a rails. The tires were 5O% worn out at the time. In the heavy snow thet are ok i have AWD.

Excellent Tire, Quiet, High Gas Mileage, Smooth.

I am so happy with these tires! There are several reviews that claim drivers only got 38k or less miles on this tire. I wonder if these drivers had proper inflation, perfect alignment and what road conditions for which they were using these tires. My experience is the tire wore down after 58,334 miles. That is how many miles I drove before the ‘penny test’ failed. However, I could probably drive another 5,000 miles safely. Given that I do a lot of long distance and business driving, I decided to replace them before they completely wore out. Remember, these are touring tires meant for smooth, super quiet, luxury rides. If you are using these for strenuous driving, you’re better off with the sport edition. This is my personal experience and it’s possible that other drivers received defective tires or had them installed by a non-professional.

Not as good as reviews would leave you to believe...

I have a 2004 Toyota Camry with over 260,000 miles on it and I have been driving Michelin tires for years. But the tire I had been using was discontinued and these were recommended. I read up on them and the reviews were all good. But after purchase, it seemed as though they were never able to balance them properly. Unlike prior Michelin's I had, the ride was always on the harsh side. I had my car looked over by my mechanic and they could find nothing wrong. Now at 40,000 miles and no where near the warranty, I'm just at the wear bars and need new tires. When new, they were very good in heavy rain. Now, they feel unsafe. Won't purchase again.

Two sets wore out quickly

We went through two sets of Michelin Premier A/S tires on our 2014 Honda Pilot EX-L. Both sets rode very well with very little noise. Handling and breaking were excellent. The only downside with the Premier A/S tires (at least on our Pilot EX-L) is that we were not able to get close to the warranted 60,000 mile tread life on either set of Premier A/S tires. We got just below 30,000 miles on both sets of tires. This time around we gave up on the Premier A/S tires and switched to Defender LTX M/S tires which I have used for years with success on my truck. The dealer (and presumably Michelin) were good to deal with - they credited 45% of the original purchase price for the Premier A/S tires towards a new set of Defender LTX M/S tires.

Perfect match for both vehicles.

I have a 2013 Honda Civic LX. I wanted Michelin tires for this car because I've had positive experiences with them on other vehicles. First, the dealer installed Michelin Defenders which were good, but softer feeling. I called Michelin and they helped me get into the Premier A/S, which was the proper H rated tire . I have been smiling ever since. They feel just right. Sporty, with a tight feel in the corners and braking distance seems much shorter. No dip in the front when coming to a stop. I've also put a set on my wife's 2013 Ford Focus SE. Same positive results. It's been 5000 miles in the Florida heat and rain. No complaints.

4.75 Stars Out Of 5 '01 VW Jetta TDI

I have been a Michelin tire rider since I first became an auto technician in the late '70's. Since 2001 I have had the MXV4s, another MXV4s, The MXV4-S8, the Primacy tires, and February '15. I purchased the Premier A/S. I wasn't totally sold on them because I really was looking to purchase the Pilot A/S3, but the Pilot's are not made in the 195/65R15 size, so I bought the Premier A/S. Wet conditions have improved. Smooth transitioning from the smooth to rough road surfaces, extremely low noise and hard stopping is great. My only complaint is the fuel mileage dropped from 50mpg to 48mpg, but I can live with that. '01 VW TDI 285K miles.

GREAT TIRES..HANDLES THE ROAD IN BAD WEATHER

I placed 4 new Michelin Tires on my 4Runner in 2012. I just changed them this year. Because of the Covid, I had a hard time getting them and put a brand that compares. The tread was barely worn. I drive between 15,000-30,000 miles a year. I live in Baltimore and these tires, Michelin, never failed me in the snow or rain. I never got stuck in mud. Well, I am putting Michelins on my Corolla. Toyota only had 4 of my tire size left and I have to move quickly because of the Covid. I don't care what the cost is.

Premature wear

Bought 4 Mich Premiere A/S tires for my Toyota Camry on 01/24/19 its now 4/21/22 and 35k miles later and I need 4 new tires. Religiously rotated every 5k and had Alignments. First set of Michelins I've ever had this premature wear with. Looking at the other reviews on these particular Premiere AS tire says it all.

Decline in Fuel Economy

I purchased four Premier A/S tires for my Hyundai Sonata late 2014. Though I like its better grip on snow and ice, I have noticed a decline in fuel economy this summer. I usually got 33.xx last year, now its 31.xx. A two mile drop is quite significant. maybe a price to pay for a better grip ?
