Primacy 4 TIRE REVIEW

I always buy Michelin tyres the best grip I can buy I am not worried about life I just want a good rain tyre.

I purchased these tyres to replace the Pirelli Powergy tyres that I had used previously. Obviously the difference was was not going to be significant between the two types but, the Michelins do seem to grip even better than the Pirelli when you press into corners and the tyres do inspire confidence in the wet. I recently drove for two hours in a named storm on the motorway in torrential rain and the tyres inspired confidence and did not give any hint of aquaplaning. That said I have never had issues with the Pirelli’s in similar conditions. Where I am counting on the Michelins being better is in wear rate. The Pirellis’ Achilles Heel was a very high wear rate which is the principle reason for the change of brands, coupled with the fact that I run Michelins on other cars where again they give great service and a better wear rate. In my experience premium brand tyres will always have a higher wear rate than some of their cheaper competitors but the premium brand tyres keep you out of the hedge, ditch or side of another vehicle with their grip and wet weather performance.

Great I’m happy with them

definitely notice the additional grip and reduction in road noise well pleased with these tyres

Tires are good.. my back left has a slow leak, not sure if this is a faulty tire or a faulty fitment. Either way it drops from 35psi to 28psi roughly every 10 days requiring me to pump it up. The other 3 are perfect and have held their air as normal.

So far so good ,the tyre matches the others on the car and seems good quality.

good overall, just a bit noisy

Good performance in all conditions. Wary of driving on icy, untreated roads as the tyres are summer tyres.

Good grip, noticeably low noise and better ride

So much quieter than standard tyres
