Michelin PRIMACY ALPIN PA3 - User reviews

2.6
Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 are poor tyres, they have lots of disadvantages when compared to my previous Pilot Alpin A2 I used the season before, I'm looking for an alternative now. The main drawbacks: notorious traction loss when accelerating (1st and 2nd gear) - also on dry surface, large lateral slipping on wet and slippery surface and snow - very soft tyre, small driving confidence, the tread on the front axle is already half worn out - I had to change them after 10000 miles. Pros: great driving comfort, acceptable on dry pavement (but what do you need winter tyres for then), good braking, decent fuel consumption.

Actually, I have no comparison, because Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3 are the first winter tyres I have on my car. So the assessment is based only on my own personal impressions.
