Primacy 4 TYRE REVIEW

Very good

Great tyres for grip in all sorts of weather, long lasting tread. And low road noise.

New tyre tread changed...

I needed 2 new tyres, thought as previously they would be 8mm..was really disappointed to hear during the MOT/service (FORD GARAGE) 10 miles after fitting they were being measured at around 5.6mm??? went back to garage (ATS) who fitted them ..they were measuring around 6.5-6.8mm....my back tyres which have been on for 5 years are 5.2mm??? it would appear ive "lost" a good few years mileage on these new tyres, but what makes it worse was that i contacted Michelin in the hope of getting an explanation and i got a message someone would be in touch...no one did! i've looked around on line and a quite a few other people have seen similar thing regarding the tread decreasing..someone actually managaed to get in touch with Michelin and they reckon the new tread spec is 7mm _ /- 0.4mm but allegedly still lasts better than their competitors?? Really disappointed with Michelin customer service and for someone who seldom uses my car except for shopping every other week or hospital appointments i could of bought cheaper with more tread. People should be aware if Michelin have changed their tread, that's fine but tell people! Although ive put a rating below i dont know how fair this is based on the amount of travel i have done with these new tyres

Very poor grip

This tire has very poor grip on acceleration, even when accelerating on overtaking. Very poor grip on braking (anti-lock system always has to kick in). Very poor grip on cornering.

I bought 4 new tyres ..very next day one tyre was flat

Very thin tyre tread

Amazed how many punctures from screws of less than 10mm through thickest part of the tread from new. Average Potholes cause walls to crease. Been mitchelin user for decades and these are the least robust I’ve had. Primacy 3 were better.

Really pleased with the performance of this tyre .
