Expert Verdict
The Michelin Primacy MXM4 suits comfort-focused drivers who value a quiet and smooth ride, with solid dry grip performance. However, its below-average treadwear rating suggests it may not last as long as some competitors, potentially affecting cost-effectiveness.
Pros
Comfort and noise scores of 8 make it a pleasant choice for long drives, typical of the grand touring all-season category.
Treadwear warranty of 55,000 miles provides a reasonable expectation of longevity for a grand touring tire.
Dry grip score of 8.5 ensures confident handling and stability in dry conditions.
Cons
The below-average UTQG treadwear rating of 500 could mean more frequent replacements than some competitors, impacting long-term value.
UTQG treadwear rating of 500 is below the category average of 683, suggesting shorter lifespan compared to some rivals.
Wet grip score of 7.5 may not be as reassuring in heavy rain compared to other options like the Goodyear Eagle LS2.
Does not feature the 3PMSF symbol, which limits its capability in severe winter conditions.
