good tires, good in wet and dry , less sporty(handling and road feedback) than PS4 I had previously, but better comfort(less noise)

Real touring tire. No compromises to confort. Road feeling is numb and soft in side changes. All you get is quiet silent wheel an you reach speed whithout knowing thats fast! Sonehow mire touring than primacy 3 but with better grip, quieter and good on wet. An improvement but if you want to drive your car and be sporty, stay away.

These tires need some worn to get the best of them.
In the first 1000 km or so, the steering doesn't seem precise like primacy 3 .
But after that the tires are fabulous .
I had michelin HP and primacy 3 in the same car, and these beat them by large.

Got these tires already fitted on Saab-original rims I bought. Tires inflated to spec, 2,8 bar.

The 2 Michelins in the front and my old tires from my old rims mounted on the rear.

The Michelins grips well overall and noise levels are good, but the overall impression is bad.

Road feedback and handling is very bad, you have no idea what the front of your car is doing. Feels in a way like the front end isn't connected to the car properly. The lateral stability is very poor.

Very unstable on ruts on motorways and in sidewinds you can feel the front wanting to weer away. It doesn't have to be strong winds even.

Would not recommend.

I've fitted a pair of these Primacy 4 tires to the front axle of my MB C320 CDI 4Matic. They are quite good for daily driving, with adecuate levels of noise and fuel efficiency. I live in the North of Spain where it rains a lot and the wet grip is also very good. Where they aren't so good is in dry grip. Compared to the previos tires I had (Continental ContiSportContact 5) they are clearly inferior in ultimate grip. However they are really noble and well behaved close to the limit. You really know when the car is going to understeer. They seem like they can easily last 30k or 40k km (12k to 18k miles) with my driving style (really aggressive at times), the only thing I don't like is that they are showing signs of irregular wear near the external sidewalls and also in the centre of the wheel, next to the big grooves, always on the external-facing side of the rubber. This is clearly from heavy cornering and should not happen with normal driving. All in all a good tire but not as high performing as the UHP range (Pilot Sport, Assy 3, etc).

Had these installed on my 1998 SLK 230 after my Bridgestone Turanza T001's were worn. I drove those tires from new and I must say that these Michelins feel much better. Lower noise, better comfort. It gives the car a bit more "floaty" feel, but not in a bad way. Feedback from the tires is good and they can cope with a pretty high cornering speed, without feeling too soft or unstable, though I must say that the Bridgestones gave better feedback during high speed cornering. But that is something these tires aren't made for. Can't say anything about the wear yet, because I only drove them for 1000 kilometers.

I purchased a pair of Michelin tires from Black circle and used one of its tire fitting centers.
On returning home the tread on my new tires looked the same as my old tires on the rear which have done 25000 miles. I contacted black circle after checking with a web review the correct tread depth which was 8mm, They asked me to take the car to have the tread measured, it was 5.6mm. I contacted black circle again, they contacted Michelin and they said the tread should be 7mm +/- 0.4mm. I have spoken to Michelin independently and been told tread depth is not important any more, it how many miles per tire you get. I have had it suggested by black circle to by 2 new tires and they will return them to Michelin for review. Not sure who's customer service is the poorest Black circle or Michelin.

I used these to replace my Goodyear efficient grip performance on my astra in the size of 225/50 17 and I can say they outclass the Goodyear's in every way especially wear which the Goodyear's gave out at about 7000 miles of realitvley quick driving where as primacys 4 still got tons of life after same mileage, dry handling is better too, even comparable to 245/45/18s I have on my other astra (exact same model) and wet grip is only slightly out done by the wider goodyear eagle f1s. Comfort is far better as they obsorb bumps better and the sidewalls are slightly stiffer than both the Goodyear's hilariously which means less wallow in corners. Fuel consumption is slightly and I mean very slightly worse on the primacy 4s compared to the efficient grip performance Goodyear's but it's vastly out weighed by positives in every other regard.

So you want excellent grip while maintaining a good fuel econemy and wear get these hands down best tire going.

Need something wider I'd suggest pilot sport 4s.

Quality tires. Very good wet grip and very good response when under pressure. Really premium stuff

Only lasted 26000 miles on front. Happy with performance but not durability. Replacing fronts with Goodyear efficient grip performance, saving £50 fitted on the pair.Will see if there is a difference in durability. Rears (primacy 4 also)were changed at same time and still have at least 4mm tread

Recently replaced 3 years worn energy saver Michelin on an French MPV vehicle.
On dry steering where before felt steering light, with new tires i have not yet found the tires limits. Grip and road info with grip is always there. No need to try find the limits. Concluding, now i can steer in a more confident fashion and in corners.
On dry, simply superb. On these tires you got the confidense that you can steer and brake like on dry. Always respect wet conditions and never try to find limits, though grip is always there while road feedback is excelent.
Comfort. My vehicle is a really confirtabke one (french), while these tires added confort. I could not believe how confort despite low profile and rather cold weather, that i checked pressure to verify all ok. Pressure was fine. So it was the tire, not the setting.
Crossing fingers, since tires carry our lifes, but first impression wasreally good. Hope that this is the case and later on

Seat Leon 5f (mk3 2014).changed very noisy Dayton d320 with these Primacy 4 on 205/55/16.
Thoughts after 3.000km on various roads in Greece with more country driving.
-very quite and very very soft,in town is going over bumps like a charm.
-I’ve seen at the end of the bead small cuts from stones or bad road condition.didnt expect
-dry grip is good but wet grip is not as good as expected,it loses grip on BAD asphalt wet roads easily,but on new asphalt is really ok.
-worst,is that my steering now is a bit sluggish and off feeling with these versus the cheap precious Dayton wich has a softer sidewall.i consider better fuel economy with the Primacy but the steering was more aggressive and accurate with the previous..

Overhaul, 8/10 from me.
