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.

A big dissapointment. Hopefully with a positive outcome.

I don't know where to begin with this review. I have always been a fan of Michelin,and i was excited when my brand new F-150 came with them as a factory installed tire.I purposely looked for one that had Michelin over the Hankook option. I am now regretting this, as I am at 9,500 miles, and am having Wear issues, chunking, and age cracking. These have been run from day 1 at the recommended door tag pressure.When the issues began, i took the truck to the dealer to ensure the alignment was not to blame.they confirmed that the alignment was perfect, and rotated them. Problems persist. I have taken this to my dealer and began the process of assistance with these faulty tires. I was hoping that it would be taken care of due to the lack of miles, and properly aligned truck. The answers from the dealer make it seem like I'm going to get the run-around from what i thought was a top tier tire company. The tires continue to wear the edges and i am concerned this will be drawn out and blown off which will force me to stray from Michelin and their partners for all of my vehicles. I would much appreciate a direct response, at which point we can resolve this, or i can put you in contact with the dealer if you would prefer. My goal here is to put tires on this truck that i can trust, and not lose faith in your company. I have added photos, but they really don't make the wear clear. I would gladly have someone from your company see them in person and confirm that they are subpar.

Absolutely no complaints with my 16 F150 Screw

Contrary to most of these reviews, I'm very happy with these tires and intend to replace them with the exact same. When the time comes of course. I now have well over 70K miles on them, and they still look good. I haven't even had a service center recommend replacement yet. They have been rotated twice and all wear very even. Far too many of these reviews are posted by those who, let's say, drive a bit recklessly, their area may be subject to bad roads, many chuck hole and no mention of alignment being checked. If I can a few others can exceed the rated mileage anybody else should also. So take those reviews with a grain of salt.

Not great for wet or light snow covered roads…

I bought a brand new 2021 F150 and it came with the Primacy XC which were advertised as “A/T” I noticed that the treadwear was not the greatest after 25***km. I have a set of Michelin X-ice tires that I use on this truck for the winter but was late getting them on and had to use the Primacy XC. They are terrible even for light snow. Less than 3cm of snow and the tires struggle to maintain traction. If you live in Canada, I would avoid these tires if you have the option.

Update on poor mileage

After being in contact with Michelin support, Michelin does stand behind their product. We worked out an agreement to satisfy both parties. Thank you Michelin for standing behind your product! It was determined that the premise was not the best tire for what I needed to do with my vehicle. I've since switched to another Michelin product. Thank you Eugene, forgetting me on the right path and representing Michelin in a very professional way.

Awful Treadwear!

These came with my new 2021 Ford F-150 purchased 17 months ago. I’ve got 28,800 miles on them and the treadwear is alarming. I’m used to getting 70,000 miles + on previous Michelin truck tires so this was a shock. I’m a bit worried about going into the winter months here in Wisconsin on these tires which currently have 4/32” tread depth, especially when looking at other reviewers’ comments about substandard traction on snow covered roads.

Great longevity

These tires came on my 2020 Silverado 4x4 dually. I purchases truck new and currently have approximately 94,000 miles on this set of tires and still have tread left. In ice and snow I generally put in 4 wheel drive and have had no slippage. Will slip a little in 2 wheel drive on ice but why would you run in 2 wheel drive on ice? Looking forward to my next set at around 100k.

2019 Ford F-150 - Michelin Primacy XC

These came on my 2019 F150 4x4 Sport. They have worn unevenly despite 4K mile rotations and are completely worn down to tread indicator at 45k miles. Little to no traction in wet or off-road conditions since new. Recommend another tire.

Worst tires I have ever had on a truck

These tires came stock on my 2020 F150 and are hands down the worst tires I have ever had on a truck on anything but a dry paved road. How Michelin can advertise these as an All Terrain All Season tires is beyond me. They have absolutely no traction in any amount of snow fall or wet conditions. I had 2 sets of LTX tires on my last truck and was pleased with their performance. Ford must have got these at a good price. Mine will be going in the garbage with 25,000 km on them.

Horrible in any condition other than dry pavement

These tires are absolutely terrible in any condition other than dry pavement/asphalt. Forget about traction on even a slight dusting of snow, even with more than 2/3 of tread depth left, and even in 4x4. I had these tires on my 2019 F150 for less than a week before I purchased new tires. These are not "all-season" tires.
