AVIS PNEU Primacy Tour A/S

Durability problem

Being a lifelong Michigan resident, I've never been afraid to drive in poor weather conditions and I've never given much thought to my tires - until the last month when I had two blowouts on tires on a new BMW x1 with less than 3,000 miles on them. This is my second X1, and I never had an issue with the tires on my 2017 (a different tire brand). Seems like there must be a durability problem with this tire. Over the years I've periodically hit potholes and needed a realignment, but I've never blown a tire, and certainly not two within a month.

Great in dry/summer - impossible in any other weather.

On my 2024 GV80 3.5 AWD - These tires are excellent in the dry. Are quiet, comfortable and are the OE for this car. tires have 20k and a fair amount of tread left . Driving in MN and FL. Typically all seasons like this are fine. In the wet they are the scariest tire i've used in 40+ years of driving all types of vehicles in all kinds of weather. ANY slippery surface, light/heavy snow, rain, icy, the tramlining above 30 mph has made me change roads and trips. Car seems to be fighting itself from all 4 corners. glad i checked this site as i was going into the dealer to check tire options. traction control/snow mode/diff lock - nothing made difference.

Cannot give a review since we only had tires installed today. Driving home, the noise seemed much less Time is needed to give a good answer.

Excellent tires

Quiet smooth and great handling. Snow and sleet traction is excellent.

Terrible, dangerous tires

Do not buy these tires. Last winter I noticed my SRX seemed to be having a hard time on the snow and ice. My tires only has about 28,000 miles on them so I thought maybe it was just my vehicle that didn’t do well in the snow/ice. I never thought to have my tires checked since they are rated for 55,000! It’s wi ter again I can barely get going on the so n does not handle well at all. Tires have 38,000 miles on. Took to the mechanic and he said I need new tires already! Absolutely ridiculous for what I paid and the fact that they are supposed to go to 55,000 miles. I can’t afford this. I used to trust Michelin. I wish I would have read reviews. They should be recalled.

Smoother ride.

Tires come standard on Mercedes GLE, however, if you choose the upgrade Bridgestone Run Flat tires for your vehicle as I did you will be disappointed in the tread wear and comfort.

Nice Tire

Traction - good | Comfort - good | Design - nice | Performance - good | Durability - TBD but purchased these tires for a previous vehicle and it was very good.

Excellent tires

Extremely quiet and excellent braking and handling. Very impressed.

Merely acceptable summer performance, terrible in snow

These Michelin Primacy Tour A/S tires came factory-installed on my 2025 Chevy Blazer RS, and they are completely unsafe for "real" Canadian winter conditions, especially in Alberta. In dry weather they’re merely acceptable, but the moment temperatures dropped and snow appeared, they became outright dangerous. I had to drive over three hours in snowy conditions (Not whiteout conditions, just simply "winter" driving with some snow fall) with 3 passengers and could not safely exceed 70 km/h in a 110 km/h zone because the vehicle was constantly sliding and nearly fishtailing, even with light steering, gentle acceleration, and plenty of space. Traction was essentially nonexistent. The car never felt planted or predictable until the last bit of the drive where I was finally able to safely accelerate to the appropriate highway speed without feeling like I was putting my passengers in danger — there was A LOT of white-knuckle driving. For a tire marketed as “All-Season” and sold factory-equipped on a vehicle in Canada, this performance is honestly embarrassing. These tires provide zero confidence, zero winter grip, and zero margin for error once conditions are anything less than dry. If you live anywhere that sees snow, ice, or cold temperatures, avoid these tires entirely. I will be replacing them immediately, and will likely be going back to the CrossClimate2s

Awesome tires

It is an amazing tire that takes care of smooth riding.
