Review Summary
The tires provide a comfortable ride and good performance on dry pavement, but struggle with traction in snow, ice, and wet conditions. Many customers reported poor tread life, with the tires needing replacement well before the expected mileage. Overall, the tires may be suitable for dry road use, but are not recommended for driving in wintry weather or off-road.

Terrible in snow
These came on my 2020 F150. They are a summer tire for dry roads only. They get terrible traction in snow, wer grass and leaves.
z, sorry to read of your disappointment. We'd suggest taking your vehicle to an authorized Michelin retailer for an inspection of the tires. Have the dealer contact us with their findings while you are there.

These are the best overall tires I’ve ever owned.
These tires came stock with my 2020 Ford F-150. They have been very safe and reliable. I’ve had several nails and screws in them, they held up well and were easily repaired each time. Also, my wife has hit the curbs numerous times, and we never had any issues with them. The traction has been great in all kinds of driving conditions. They run smoothly, quietly, and they get great fuel mileage too. I just bought a brand new identical set to replace the original ones, and will definitely consider buying them again in the future. Highly recommended!
Poor Tread Wear
I have a similar problem: terrible tread wear. I have a 2021 f150 power boost with less than 22,000 miles. These tires have been rotated twice by the Ford Dealer to get" better trad wear"-HUH! Not much tread left to deal with upstate NY winters. The truck was purchased in May 2021. The good things are that they are quiet and give a comfortable ride, nevertheless, they are too pricey for the service they give.

Poor Tread Life
These tires came on my 2021 F150. Almost 33,000 miles on them and they are already at 4/32. I am surprised and disappointed given that I had a Escape that came stock with Michelin tires as well and I got approximately 80,000 miles on them. I know the vehicles are not comparable, but I had hoped for better.

Avoid if you drive at all.
Received my new 2022 Ford F-150 in April 2023. Just hit 25K KM’s and the tread is worn to the replace line. As they are factory installed, no warranty. Really nice 70K truck and 8 months down the road new tires. Don’t buy this tire.
Unhappy, we get your frustration and would like to get more details to see if we can help with a solution. A member of our Consumer Care team will be in touch.

Poor
Poor tires. They come on my 2020 f150. Got 32k out of them. I would have kept running them if winter wasn't here. I don't think they handled well in the snow at all. I wouldn't ever buy a set of these.
Brent of the north, thanks for taking time to submit a review. We're sorry to read that you were not happy with the original tires on your F150. We hope you will try Michelin again in the future.

Bad
These tires came stock on my 2021 f150. I have had nothing but problems with them ever since day one. I think every one of them has had to be repaired at least once some of them twice and my truck is at 25,000 miles now and I have one that's leaking right now and I will not put another dime into them, I'll just keep on talking off the PSI until I get my new tires in a couple days.
North Dakota, we're sorry you experienced numerous punctures in the tires that came originally equipped on your F150. We hope you have better results with your replacement tires.

Short tread life
These tires came with my 2022 F150 Powerboost, and now at 31,000 they will need to be replaced. I tow a 21 foot travel trailer, maybe a dozen times a summer. Pretty disappointing, given Michelin’s prior reputation for long tread life, and I now have concerns about replacing them with another set of any Michelin tires.

Lasted 60k for me.
These came with my 2018 F150 Lariat. I have 60k miles on it and the wear bars are still not showing. I only tow a utility trailer occasionally, most of my driving is city/highway. No extended off-road driving.
Shot before 30,000
2021 F-150 purchased new w/ Primacy XC from factory. Followed recommended inflation and rear tires are shot well before 30,000. Fronts will also not pass inspection in NC. I do tow regularly (5K lbs) well within the limitations of the truck but apparently these are not the right fit for towing. I have michelins on most every other truck/cars I have but Primacy is not the ticket for towing apparently. They are, however, very quiet but I'm sadden I have to replace these at such low mileage compared to manufacturer spec'd warranty.
ncspacewhite, we're sorry to read that your tires are close to needing replacement. A member of our team will be in touch to discuss further with you.
