Michelin Primacy HP - User reviews

3.1
I have Michelins Primacy HP since this spring. I have to say that I expected much better grip - especialy that I've read all the reviews. Tyre behaves realy weak on dry surface. In majority of corners you have to be carefull. I even changed my damper but it didn't help. Earlier I used Uniroyals- the same size and price but the diriving comfort was better. In addition, I'm not a huge fan of agressive driving. I drove 10000 miles and I can say that I will ever buy them again.

I bought new tires from Michelin because I was sure that they are Premium Brand. After 20000 miles Michelins Primacy HP have to be changed (they rubbed off). I controled the presure and I was realy disappointed. MIchelin brags about Primacy's pro-longed durability but it seems that they started to search for some savings. One more thing- when the highway tarmac became wet my car started to skid dangerously ( i was driving only 90 mph)

Unfortunately Michelin Primacy HP is a standard equipment of C4 Grand Picasso (size: 215/55R16). My engine is not powerfull (1.6HDi) but it breaks the grip while moving off on wet road, sometime even on dry road and they force my ESP system to turn on. Average grip in corners which may be cause by soft rubber. After 20.000 miles the tread is invisible. In general very expensive tire in comparison to the quality. I don't recommend. I will never buy them again.

After driving 20.000 miles my front tires are ready to be changed (I have to say that I dont drive in an agressive way). The noise level rised right after 6.000 miles. In general if the noise could be a bit lower I wouldnt hesitate to buy them again... Grip on wet and on dry didnt knock me out.

Good tires on dry and wet road. This is the only benefit of MIchelin Primacy HP. Rest only disadvantages: - very high price, - very loud - very quickly rubs off. Tyres fitted in the factory Citroen C5, They clashed after 40.000 miles - I was driving on highways mainly - 80% of the distance I made was on highwas ; 20% of the distance I drove in cities. I don't recommend them because of the high price and the low durability.

Both the previous car (rover25) and now (Volvo v50) when buying a car "got the drop" these tyres. I drove the Volvo on these tyres and have 30 thousand to be yet but .... Unfortunately wyząbkowały, but more noise. I also noticed uneven tread wear. Slightly attracted. Amazingly the winter Nokianach went to the track, no download. After the change in the summer .... upa. I think convergence. I'm going for convergence and what? Perfectly. In summary, the two cars on the Micheline complained. Previous car, they were, unfortunately, but the energy foo kicked them slippery on wet grounds behaved like plastic, although were only 5 years old. A little bad as used tyres lay not in stock. Today I have another, but what is in another entry ...

Michelin Primacy HP rubbed off very quickly. After I put them the fuel use raised for about 1l / 100km. They rumble so hard that I feel very disappointed.

Switching from zimowek Semperit these Michelin is an annual horror. First tyre awfully hard (is exactly on the other side of what would call comfort), to the extent that need a lot of experience, to the extent to leave the ruts smoothly without jerking the steering and returning engraved tyres in the asphalt track. Any bulging asphalt humps overcomes unstable. Second terribly loud. At speeds of about 70 km / h is probably the worst, because August is going so slowly, with too much air ped not roar, so you can enjoy a full range of tyre rumble, sounds like from a distance approaching helicopter. At higher speeds the same, but the air ped it slowly drowns. Thirdly - weak to cope in the wet. Entering the water really slows me, does not drain too much water, which in combination with bulges asphalt gave me a couple of times a rzyciu excess of emotion. I do not recommend, probably the worst tyre which has so far ridden. Jednyne pros is a relatively good performance in dry conditions and a small abrasion. I started to use the tyre tread with a height of about 4 mm.

I drove on it ok.25000 km and are suitable for exchange-ride quite calmly, surprisingly fast pace of consumption, value to the strength of the tire only plus- disastrous quite comfortable, and as quiet, weak in the wet

Very average tyre. On dry road: OK but I dont feel confident on wet road. My ABS turns-on very often. Conti P Cont or Bridgestone ER300Ecpoia were definitely better (despite the higher attriction). Michelin Primacy HP are quite durable, I cant see any visible tread damage after 15.000 miles. I wouldn't buy them again. My car: Toyota Avensis 2.2D4D 150HP
