Review Summary
The Michelin Primacy tires received mixed reviews. Some customers reported the tires as quiet, comfortable, and providing good road grip and handling. However, many customers experienced rapid and uneven tread wear, poor performance in wet or snowy conditions, and even tire blowouts. Customers were generally disappointed with the durability and lifespan of the tires, often needing to replace them well before the expected treadlife.

Worn fast 30k
Always use winter tires and summer for summer, defender series gave me lasting tire's however these tires I was shocked to see are almost finished at 30k klm. I'll stay with defenders and don't recommend the primacy line.
Gordo, sorry to read this but your tires have a mileage warranty, We suggest taking the vehicle to your local retailer (preferably the selling dealer) for an inspection of the tires. Have the dealer contact us while you are at his store so that we can help resolve this.

Tire is prone to punctures even from a pebble
OEM tires on my Ioniq 5. A 16mm pebble(rock) punctured through the tread and all 5 belts including the steel belts this morning causing a rapid leak of 10 psi per minute. My bicycle tires are stronger than this model tire from Michelin with just 6,800 miles.
Terrible Tread Life
These tires came with my brand new 2020 Ford Escape and the tread is worn down so much they are unserviceable at only 25k miles. Dealer doesn't provide prorated discount on a new set despite tire warranty booklet provided with all documents. I will have to purchase all new set and won't buy Michelin.
Myoung, there is no mileage warranty with original equipment tires. But we want to get more information and help with a solution. One of our team members will be in touch to work with you and your retailer.

Poor tread wear!
I bought a 2021 bronco with these tire on it and 13 months later, they need to be replaced! Local ford dealer won’t help. Typical run around when trying to get help.

Good Ride and Traction Poor mileage
These tires are quiet. The ride is good, but don’t expect more than 35K miles. Our bought brand new 2020 RAV4 AWD came with these and didn’t even make 3 years 35K miles.
Sad, we're sorry to read that your tires are worn out at 35k. A member of our team will be in touch to discuss options for a solution.

Tread life is terrible. Buy something else
OE on my 2020 Hyundai Sonata. Decent ride and fairly quiet. I had a dealer contract for free service, so they were always kept at proper pressure and rotated regularly. At 30k miles and two years old all four are worn completely out to the point of being unusable. Hyundai says go to Michelin for warranty. Michelin dealers, I talked to several, say treat warranty doesn't apply to OE tires, but supposedly they are the same as the ones for sale of the shelf at the dealer that ARE covered by the warranty. I'll be replacing them with some non-Michelin tires and won't buy Michelin products anymore.

Very noisy despite advertised as quiet
very noisy after 20,000 miles. 7/32 tread depth after 25,000 miles. Handling is very good. Ride is ok but have to be careful not to over inflate.
Bob13, no doubt noise can be frustrating. We would recommend taking your vehicle to an authorized retailer to have the tires inspected. You mention overinflation - this can cause an irregular wear pattern which can lead to a tire noise.

Great for dry weather. Terrible on adverse conditions.
Great tire for dry weather but terrible traction on gravels, light snow and icy road. All season tires should performed a minimum safely on light adverse conditions.

Happy Traveler
I purchased these a few months ago & I am very happy how they handle & preform
Good performace at a reasonalbe price
Have been on these tires for the last year so I've driven all four season on them. Our season on the west coast are mild so just a little snow but lots of rain. Tires are great. Snow performance is not that important to me but on the AWD cx5 there are no issues in snow. Ice is ice, I drive slowly and no issues. Now, rain performance is great. Lots of grip and road feel. Summer, no issues at all of course. Road noise. How do you rate this. I mean, there is road noise but they are much better than the stock tires. There is always going to be noise but these, IMHO are just fine. Hope they last 5 years and 80K + kms!!!
