Michelin Primacy 4 205/55 R16 91V

The 2018 summer season debut from French tyre giant Michelin features enhanced ride comfort and enhanced wet and dry traction.

Saving properties

The main emphasis in the fourth generation of the Primacy series is on the fact that the tyre does not lose its properties as it wears out, maintaining the driving qualities of new rubber until the minimum allowable residual tread depth(about 2 mm) is reached. Even in this case, the tyre continues to effectively remove water masses from the contact spot, for which two types of drainage grooves are used in the design of the model: with a profile tapering towards the base and with a square section.

On a solid "five"

On the test track , the Michelin Primacy 4 shows shorter braking distances on both dry and wet pavement. Moreover, very strong “players” in the tyre field were chosen as rivals for the tyre: Bridgestone Turanza T001 Evo, Continental ContiPremiumContact 5, Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance and Pirelli Cinturato P7 Blue. Against their background, the brainchild of Michelin also stands out for its long mileage (you will need to think about buying a new set after almost 50K kilometers).

Top class

The high class of the tyre is once again emphasized by its responsiveness to the driver's actions, stability at speed and confident cornering. A trio of visual indicators will inform you of the degree of wear of the model, supplemented by an erasable Michelin marking at the bottom of the drainage channels. Overall, the Michelin Primacy 4 fully justifies every penny spent on a tyre, ensuring the comfort and safety of car trips in any weather.
