Scale of scores: Highest lowest

This summer tyre offered by Michelin is an excellent choice for demanding drivers. Top quality and excellent performance in any situation are the main advantages of premium tyres.

This new product for summer 2018 is a model designed for high-end cars. Why is it worth buying Michelin Primacy 4?

  • This tyre provides perfect protection against aquaplaning

  • It ensures effective braking on dry and wet roads

  • It guarantees safe driving in any conditions

  • The tread wears slowly and evenly


The product combines the most important features for drivers—low rolling resistance, which translates into fuel economy and high travelling comfort. Michelin Primacy 4 has a symmetrical tread pattern, optimised for durability and performance.

The tyre is divided into 4 wide grooves, which run around the tyre and perfectly remove water, even when driving during a heavy rain. Smaller incisions in the tread blocks are designed to make the driver confident and comfortable even at higher speeds. The tyre excellently keeps track, even during dynamic cornering.

To create the model, the engineers used a high-performance rubber blend, which is not only extremely durable, but also perfectly adapts to the ground. The tyre has a wear indicator, which is very helpful in assessing tyre condition and its replacement time.

    The tire is ideal for those who appreciate safe and comfortable driving. It performs well on dry and wet surfaces, and at the same time does not make noise, which could be annoying on longer rides. I would recommend. Read more Collapse

    The price difference is compensate by better MPG. It's like buying cheap tyres but with better handling, road noise, comfort and safety overall. Another plus is durability. 40.000+ miles. Read more Collapse
