Perfect tires in the traffic jams and while speeding fast :) Silent and safe. I advise drivers that look for speed records to buy Michelin Exalto. I drove my leasing period on 1 set in the city (moving off, braking and again moving off) it gives the real proof of durability. I drove as dynamic as my 1.8TDCi (125HP) car let me.

Tyres grip tp the wet and dry road with no difference. The only con is water discharging. My Bridgestones were draining water much better than Michelin Primacy !

For such a respectable brand tires are at best average. Fair in dry conditions, quiet and comfortable. However, the average barely wet. I have a fairly high torque of 340 Nm. This tire compared to the previous Bridgestone ER 300 Ecopia and Continental ContiPremiumContact 2 pales on the wet asphalt, both when accelerating, braking or in an arc. To be honest though they were relatively expensive, do not feel confident enough with them. The advantage of this tire is quite low attrition. Bridgestone and Conti consumed in the eyes. Maybe one of the other models such as the Michelin Primacy 3 or Energy Saver + are better in the wet.

I have Michelin Primacy HP. My mechanic recommended them. Everything is ok except one issue: from 90MMPH noise level raises diametrically. I have Mondeo TDCI and my engine is already noisy, but these tyres are much more noisy. I will probably sell them and buy something silent. I won't buy them again.

I purchased Michelins Primacy HP because my mechanic told me that they are perfect. HP are silent but not for agressive style of driving. First what came to my eyes was the insufficient traction in quite small corners... that tyre slips which is a disaster. To be more positive about these particular Michelins I have to say that they are good in moving off and for long distance journeys. Braking ok.... the only disadvantage is grip in corners witch is unacceptable. The design is ok but rather in wider treads.

MIchelin Primacy Hp are just splendid - in case you wont be suprised by the snow as I was on march 2008. Last breath of winter and my left halogen had to be changed :). Everything happened on the parking lot with the speed of 3MPH. I dont complain because these are not winter tyres but on some summer tyres I hadn't such problems. I would recommend!
