These tyres have been great. They wear really well and perform reliably in all conditions. With Michelin, you get what you pay for and I will be sticking with them.

A few years 215/55R17 85000 April 11, 2022
Covered 85k KMs of 'spirited' driving in my Camry, pressures were kept around 36psi and tyres rotated regularly. Good even wear and great wet/dry grip even on winter drives in mountain regions. A safe tyre that I would highly recommend for a family car. I only swapped them out to the updated Primacy as they were getting low (2mm tread) and winter is not far away.

These tyres are original to the car and I have completed 93,000 km of mostly highway driving commuting an hour to 90 minutes each way for work. I am now looking to replace them with the same tyres in the near future.

Very good compare to original tyres that come with the X1. Much quieter and comfortable ride after the replacement. Only 1 puncture fix per lifetime which is ok.

Driven in the Melbourne suburbs, on freeways and highways, out into regional Victoria and on the rare occasion accidentally on a gravel road, without any issues. Our car's a 2 litre diesel Golf and I expected they would wear sooner but they've lasted longer than the original Continental OEM tyres, are quieter and hold their pressures well and never really need to be adjusted as I check them regularly. They are just an all round great tyre and would recommend them.

I'm not a bot, as 78.5k on ONE SET of tyres might imply. I do not work for Michelin either. I have had baaad experience with OEM Toyos in my Mazda Sp25 and switched to Michelins PS3 and OMG - what a difference! So... I was pleased to pick up my Honda CRV VTiLX with OEM Michelins Primacy ST. What a scoop! The tyres are at a legal limit and are being replaced next week for a PS4s. Worth your money and a pleasure to ride. I do a lot of fast starts/breaking (yeah in a CRV...) and the tyres were great in both dry and wet conditions. Occasional skid was in wet where I think it was a combination of CVT and 1.5t at fault.

Great tyres, long wearing. A little noisy. I would buy again if I could get a good price for them.

Great all rounder tyre for city and highway driving. They are wearing very well and expect quite a few more km’s out of them before needing to be replaced. Would recommend them for being a quiet road tyre. Very happy they came factory fitted

Excellent performance in all conditions. Braking in emergency situations is remarkable. The last meter is often the critical one! These tyres have never let me down. It is critical to have the suspension geometry right so I have that attended to separately from the tyre dealerships. These tyres give confidence in all conditions especially in the wet. I have swapped between Continental CrossContact and these. Both are good but the Michelin has a noticeable edge. Being safe is my first priority but this helps with great comfort, grip and value for money.

Nice and chunky tyres that soak up the bumps and give me a lot of confidence, are economical and look great. Easy to clean and dont wobble around corners and are very sound.They are long lasting and wear very well.
