Quiet and comfortable ride

As What i expected from Michelin Primacy series, it provided me a quiet and comfortable ride. The information search process and overall buying experience was also outstanding, I ordered online from Tyresonline.SG and promptly fitted the tyres on the same day of installation, tyres were ready before I arrived. Hassle free fitment experience adds to the overall satification with Michelin tyres.

Comparable to none of the competition. Still the industry leader as expected from this brand

I swapped to the Michelin Primacy 5 (Sept 2025) barely a year into my previous Goodyear Assurance Comfortred (Sept 2024) tyres as they were awful in both dry/wet braking as well as in cornering and driving feel and it was ruining my ownership experience. I am still in my break-in 1,000km period but so far the experience has been night and day. The Michelins are even more silent than my previous tyres and the braking experience is the gradual type which is to my liking and my preferred driving style. The sidewall design is even nicer than my previous and that was really the icing on the cake to convince me to switch. Michelin forever!!

Suitable for Tesla Model 3 Highlander 10/10

Swapped the original Bridgestone T005EV tyres for Michelin Primacy 5, no regrets. Noticeably quieter, better grip, and definitely longer lasting than the T005EV. Superb comfort. Not meant for aggressive driving, but perfect for everyday drivers who value a smooth, comfortable ride.

Best premium touring tyre

Drove the tyres for 1000km. All aspects surpassed Primacy 4 which I had previously. The silence from the tyres is unbeaten, especially when going over speed stripes, it is able to suppress the noise well. Dry and wet braking are equally good. Definitely the best premium touring tyre compared to competitors such as Continental CPC7 or Bridgestone Turanza 005.

NEW! Michelin Primacy 5

Michelin Primacy 5 225/45 R17 94W 0925 Purchased 4 pc of the above tyres. The Michelin Primacy 5 tyres are excellent - comfortable, smooth, and very quiet. Test drove over 68 km after installation from east to west and back to the east again across Singapore from Simei to Changi Village to Ghim Moh and back to Eunos in dry, dusty and rainy conditions. Longevity cannot be assessed currently. Verdict: 🛞 🛞 10/10 🛞 🛞
