Much Better than O.E. MXM4
These tires perform better on my 2017 Acura RDX than the OE Michelin MXM4s. I purchased spec 235/60R18/XL 107V to replace the SL OE tires. I was concerned about the ride being too harsh with the XL rating for the new tires but, they actually ride much better (less steering wheel feedback from road imperfections) than the OEs. Road noise, braking, cornering and traction are also improved. Maria in the Michelin Consumer Care Department was great getting answers to my questions.
Good tires
This is the second time I have used the Primacy Tour A/S on my car. They are quiet, comfortable, and stable. They hold air pressure quite well. They are not very durable. The set I replaced lasted 30 K miles, even though they are rated for 45 K miles.
Great Touring Car Tire
Could be a bit more grippy but overall very solid choice for a performance touring car. After 50,000 + miles, i just purchased my second set. Quiet and stable on the highway.
Not great
These came stock on our 2025 Hyundai Tucson. They made the ride really stiff, and hard. We put on some Yokohama YKC CTX tires like we had on our Kia. The difference is amazing! I don't know how Michelin gets such great ratings all the time. Maybe since those came with the car they weren't actual Michelin primacy tires or something.
We’re sorry to hear the Primacy Tour A/S tires did not meet your ride comfort expectations on your Hyundai Tucson. New tires can feel firmer at first and typically require a short break in period as the tread surface wears in and the tires settle into normal performance. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. If we can be of assistance in the future, please don't hesitate to contact our Consumer Care team a call at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

smooth tires
very happy with these tires will in future only buy these warranty is wonderful
45,000 miles replaced after 30,000
I purchased my last set of tires on February 22,2024 and put 30,000 miles on them. I did not get my 45,000 miles as expected. I did rotate my tires but to many potholes made my tires wear unevenly
Avoid buying
This tire is just not durable. I have replaced two in the space of three months. Both times were a sidewall damage during normal driving on a city street. I have driven these same streets on Pirelli tires and have no problems. They also underperform on snow and ice. Even with an Audi Quattro drivetrain, the tires slide in slush, snow, or on ice.
We’re sorry to hear about the durability and winter performance issues you experienced. We understand how frustrating this must be. We’d welcome the opportunity to learn more about your situation. Please contact our Consumer Care team at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

Very disappointed.
I have a 2024 Cadillac XT5 Premium Luxury. The OEM tires are Michelin Primacy Tour A/S. They are horrible. Noisy, harsh riding. Extremely disappointing, and on snowy roads they are all over the place with little traction. My wife's Lexus RX450H has Michelin Premier LTX OEM tires that are excellent. Why would you put such a terrible tire on a Cadillac luxury car?
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear how disappointed you are with the Michelin Primacy Tour A/S tires on your 2024 Cadillac XT5. We recommend visiting an authorized dealer to have the tires inspected and to ensure proper installation, inflation and alignment. These factors can significantly impact noise, ride quality and traction. If you have any questions or would like to discuss further, give our Consumer Care team a call at 866-866-6605 (Mon–Fri 8 AM–7 PM EST, Sat 9 AM–1 PM EST).

We are pleased from all aspects of what we think a tire choice should be bringing to our 2022 Ford Escape.
Quality Tire
The tires create less road noise then some of the other tires and seem to give you a good smooth ride along with the quality and getting around in the snow. I would recommend them.
