Really good tires, so far I am very pleased. Decent behavior on the road, without any surprises. Although this year there was too much snow, passed the exam. Strong 5 :)

The tire is really good but the biggest drawback is its volume at speeds of over 100km / h. For comparison I have Nokian WR 3A and this falls in terms of volume much better.

I bought these tyres in September 2008, the DOT was the beginning of 2008. For the first two seasons they were doing great. They were fitted to a Golf IV 1.9 TDI 160 HP. The third season was a total disaster, it wasn't possible for them to drive on snow or ice. The distance I did on them was about 9000 miles, tread depth was 7 mm, but the rubber had become so hard, that I was afraid to press the brake pedal on snowy road, not to mention about braking on ice or cornering. I had no choice - I had to buy new tyres. I chose Dunlop SP Winter Response. As for now, I am even more satisfied with them than with the Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 at the beginning. To me, Michelin is only a legend - and a waste of money.

Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 are definitely sensational, like all Michelin tyres. I have a car with automatic transmission, so starting, especially on slippery surface, could have been a bit difficult, but it's the second winter season I've been using these tyres I've never managed to get stuck in snow or have problems with grip. It's difficult to talk about the re-purchase because these tyres have a perfect tread and I'm far from replacing them, but when I have to, I'll get another set of Michelins.

I finished my Mechanical Engineering studies, I know everything about cars, I know what parts I should buy to make my driving safe. I drive a sports car with increased performance (Seat Leon II), so I wanted to buy good brand tyres for the winter so I wouldn't get myself killed :) because I drive very quickly and aggressively. I did a long distance (about 1400 miles) in the worst possible conditions - fresh snow and then slush. I'm very satisfied because Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 did so well that even ESP didn't switch on. I recommend!
