Review Summary
Customers report mixed experiences with these all-season tires. Many praise the exceptionally quiet, smooth ride and strong handling on highways, with reviewers consistently highlighting noise reduction and stable cornering. However, a substantial group expresses significant disappointment with premature wear, reporting tread degradation well before expected mileage—some needing replacement at 20,000 to 30,000 miles. While satisfied customers commend traction and performance, those experiencing rapid wear feel let down by durability expectations. A few note additional concerns including harmonic noise and snow performance issues. Overall, the divide between positive ride quality and negative longevity experiences creates notably split customer sentiment.

45k mile experience- helpful?
These are the OE tires on our toyota crown limited. The first 10k miles the tires wore down to 5-6/32nds, thought the tires were not going to make it to 20k miles. We made it to 43k, but they hydroplane for the last 5-10k mikes. Had the alinement checked and corrected if needed every year. Also I am a fanatic about tire pressure. The crown is an AWD hybrid so not a high hp or torque car. The tire noise after 3-4/32nd kept getting louder. I live in michigan and when the tires had 6+/32nd were pretty good in the snow/ice. Handle great in dry weather...what AS tire doesn't. We have had many different models of Michelin tires on many different vars/trucks and these are a little disappointing. (Disappointing, wear, noise, life long traction) (happy with sidewallk rim protection, dry weather performance, and ride comfort) I wish I had other model options but the crossclimate 2 doesn't come in my tire size. Are these better than average tires....yes, are they what I expected from Michelin....not really. If you are someone who just buys cost effective tires and don't pay attention to tire performance, you'll probably be happy with them.

Great tires!!
I just replaced my Primacy Tour A/S tires on my 2021 Hyundai Tucson. I purchased the car “new” in Fall 2020. I’ve put 60,00 miles on my Tucson. I loved the smooth ride, gripping in wet conditions, and quietness of these tires, so there was no question about replacing them with the exact same tires. Love my Michelins!

These tires sound like snow tires from 0 miles to the present 3500 miles. Very disappointed! Dealer told me “ Michelin is the industry standard” maybe in the past .

>> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
>> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.
>> Tread patterns are often tuned to accomodate different tire widths. Tires for a particular dimension of a given tireline may vary in appearance from the tire shown in the photograph.
WARNING: Serious or fatal injury may result from tire failure due to underinflation or overloading. To ensure correct air pressure and vehicle load, refer to vehicle owner's manual or tire information placard on the vehicle. Serious injury or death may result from explosion of tire/rim assembly due to improper mounting. Only tire professionals should mount tires and they should never inflate beyond 40 psi to seat the beads. Before mixing types of tires in any configuration on any vehicle, be sure to check the vehicle owner's manual for its recommendations.
DANGER: Never mount a 17" diameter tire on a 17.5" rim.
Inflation pressure increase must not exceed the maximum pressure branded on the tire sidewall. When a customer requests a replacement tire with a lower speed rating than the original equipment tire, you must clearly communicate to him or her that the handling of the vehicle may be different, and that its maximum speed capability is limited to that of the lowest speed-rated tire on the vehicle. Exceeding the lawful speed limit is neither recommended nor endorsed.
For high-speed driving, additional inflation pressure and possibly reduced tire loading and/or upsizing is required. In the absence of specific recommendations by the vehicle manufacturer, use the following guidelines based on those in the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organization Standards Manual.
For speeds over 160mph (100 mph), load and inflation must be adjusted according to the table below.
