Great When New, Horrible Road Noise after 30K miles

I just replaced these on my Toyota Camry. I love how they handle on dry & wet pavement. I have my tires rotated & balanced at the tire shop. They were great until they passed about 30K miles. The road noise was horrible. I couldn't hear on my bluetooth due to the road noise. I love Michelin Tires and swear by them to get me home! These were wonderful when newer, but the noise was bad when they started wearing. I didn't get 55K miles. I barely got 40K. 44,478 to be exact.

Terrible

Absolutely terrible tires! Loud, noisy terrible traction and if you drive in winter good luck! Very disappointing that even in AWD at slow speeds I’d be sliding and can’t turn. Came on my new suv I bought and at 36,000 miles they need replacing already.

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.

Horrible on dirt/slush/salt

These tires came on my 2020 Hyundai Tucson. Fortunately I work from home so I wasn't aware how bad they handle on dirt, slush, and leftover salt left on the road. There is absolutely no type of traction and I've almost ended up off the road. Other than that, they handle normal conditions well.

Nice road characteristics, but treadwear nowhere near the promised miles.

These tires ride well and quietly, and they also improved the handling of my Lexus ES330. These V-rated tires provided handling and cornering that was better than the Michelin H-rated tires my car had previously. The only major drawback is that although they came with a 60,000 mile treadwear warranty, they were worn to replacement-needed level after a bit less than 13,000 miles (and had been properly inflated, wore evenly, and rotated every 6,000 miles). Michelin's "fine print," which I had not seen until now, limits treadwear warranty to specified miles OR 6 years, whichever comes first. I bought these before the pandemic, and did not travel for 3 years, yet Michelin's "clock was ticking," and when I called today to request pro-rated coverage, they said no. So much for "customer goodwill."

Dangerous tires.

Have this on my Genesis GV70 as factory tires with 9500 miles on it now after two years of light driving. Leave in Colorado and recently had two consecutive snow storms. This tires put my life at risk by almost spinning off highway in a light snow covered road. With great effort I managed to keep it from not spining 360 and not hitting the median or running off the cliff. Scarry and dangerous. Decided to park it till spring and drive my old truck. It is a lease so not worth to spend money for half year left. Never had this issues with BFG or Goodyear.

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.

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.

Great customer service!

I got the primacy tour tires on my car with my lease, they wore out quickly at 26k miles, I called Michelin and was back and forth a few times because of the dealership and Michelin was so kind and responsive! Was upset with the tires but the customer service saved everything, helped resolve everything and has been such a pleasant experience!

Only got 25,000 miles, not the advertised 55,000 miles

These tires came with my 2021 GMC Acadia. I haven't even hit 25,000 miles and they now need replacing. I rotated the tires on time and checked air pressures every month according to the owner's manual. I see in the warranty that "Original Equipment tires are excluded". Based on my experience, and what I'm seeing from other reviews with similar experiences, these tires must be very poorly manufactured. Michelin should be ashamed for selling these, and even more ashamed for not having a solutions for those of us who only got 20-40k life from these tires.
