Passenger Car Summer Premium Touring Tires Tire Review Highlights
Michelin Primacy 4 rated 58% while driving a Hyundai Ioniq 5
Driving on mostly town for 15000 spirited miles
Driving on mostly town for 15000 spirited miles
Like in all subjective scores, these are relative to the other tires I used on the same car. These were cheap Winter tires (for one Winter) and UHC All-Season Hankook Kinergy 4S. Please also note that my Michelin Primergy 4 are OEM tires for an EV, so they might be different from the retail version of the same model.
Michelin Primergy 4 loses in every category to Hankook Kinergy 4S:
Wet roads: Michelin start to skid unpredictably with quite sudden and nasty understeer and the tire doesn't react to weight transfer when you slow down a bit to load front tires for more grip - the car just keeps sliding until the speed reduces enough. Hankooks feel way more safe in same situations and way more manageable and react to corrections just nicely.
Dry roads: Michelins start to slide quite early (earlier than Hankooks) on a heavy Hyundai IONIQ 5, but are very predictable and forgiving and once they start squealing they are still driveable and react to the steering.
Hot dry roads: I'd expect a Summer tire not to overheat on a hot sunny day, but hey... It is normal when all-season Hankooks start sliding more and become mushy at temperatures around 25-27 C and by 30 C they drop quite noticeably. But Michelins start to slide more at above 30 C, which is surprising. I'd expect a Summer tire to hold to at least 35 C. Of course, the road is way hotter under the Summer Sun. however my next Summer tire will definitely be something that can stand the heat better.

2022 qashqai.15000 miles over 2years.Advised that tire wear down to 3mm/4mm.Need changing soon.Where are people getting exaggerated miles recorded from.I am not a boy racer and try to slow down without excessive braking,so I cannot agree with wear achieved by some reviews.

Driving on a combination of roads for 34000 spirited miles
Driving on a combination of roads for 34000 spirited miles
A hard wearing OEM factory original tire that was used for 6 years and 55000 km. The tire tread is still very sufficient, but it is already unsafe to drive on - the wet grip decidedly awful. You will get wheel spin just with a mist of water, or on a drying road, with only moderate throttle input. Dry grip is sufficient but you can feel that the car is just a little on edge if you brake too hard while cornering. The feedback is excellent, if only because you can feel every bump and dip in the road surface. Obviously the ride is extremely bumpy, and road noise was quite loud. The steering got very heavy as the tires aged, and some brake screeching started to occur even at very light braking between 40km/h and 60km/h. All issues, including the steering and the brake screeching, were solved when replaced with new tires. I would not recommend these tires to anyone.
Continental EcoContact 6 rated 76% while driving a MINI MINI COUNTRYMAN S ALL4

Driving on a combination of roads for 300 spirited miles
This tire is Eco Contact 6 SSR BMW labelled which is OE tire for MINI countryman cooper S ALL 4 sell in China.
According to my oberservation, the treadwear is 440 and the traction is AA which is different to the non brand-labelled tire or other brand proved tire.BMW or MINI may customize of this tire with Continental and improved the traction, handling and reduced wear.
This tire has good handling in urban and mountain tarmac in Beijing.The support in curves is good and not easy to make some noise to remind driver so this tire can support the spirited driving although it is not belongs to the sports tire at all.I think the Premium Contact 6 is placed at higher level than this.
I gave the lower mark on noise.This runflat tire is likely to produce more noise than others like PZ4 RSC for BMW X5 21 inch wheel.(The countryman has poorer level of NVH)
I may buy the UHP non-runflat tire for Countryman to increase its sportiness and reduce the rolling noise.

The tires are fantastic,but were it is even more fantastic is at wet and heavy wet roads,it is like you're driving in dry road without any water, first time i drive in a heavy rain and i couldn't believe the behaviour of the steering wheel (+) of course.my ex tires were rain ex 3 ,and i was very satisfied,but the 5 is even much better!!

Use this set to replace my Goodyear efficient performance 2. the dry grip is impressive when compare to the Goodyear. been under heavy rain a few times and the wet grip is comparable with the Goodyear. However the fuel consumption is significantly worse then Goodyear with a motorway fuel consumption from ~64 mpg to 60mpg

By far the worst tire I drove in the last 10 years.
Noise and ride comfort are all right.
Grip in dry is ok if you take it slow but as soon as you speed up in corners, the tire struggles to keep you on the road.
Wet grip and wet breaking are the worst I’ve ever experienced in my life. At first I could not believe the car would drift sideways that easy at normal acceleration on a wet road, figured that that part of tarmac must have been greasy or something. Then tried the same on 4-5 diferent places and realized just how bad and dangerous this tire is.
Wet breaking - ABS kicking in on maximum breaking at 30 km/h !?!
After driving it on 3 different occasions / days on wet roads, decided to get rid of the tire after only 2.000 km I drove it.
I cannot believe such a terrible and dangerous tire is used as an OEM and delivered as a first set you get on the car which costs over 100.000 €.
I understand it reduces CO2, but safety must be more important that CO2.
Absolutely terrible.

Second lot of 4 Avon ZV7 tires, as with my previous tires all 4 developed cracking in tread wells around entire tread and the off side front tire developed a single crack across the entire tread but not the sidewalls at all. Contacted DVSA by filling in online form , they need more evidence e.g. photographs ,actual tires and more complaints to take further action.

I use these tires on a 2004 Nissan Teana. I average 1000kms every week at speeds averaging 120km/h 90% motorway driving. The current tires went on the car in March 2022. They have lasted 120,000kms with a few more 100kms left to the tread wear indicators. Filled with nitrogen. Rotated every 30000kms. Allignments done every 30,000kms. Exceptional tires I would say. Going for the same brand and type as I am quite sure they will last at least for another 120,000kms. :)

The tire is very good when it is new both in dry and wet. The braking performance is also great due to its compound. It can get quite noisy even when it's new. But when it is around 30% left, the tire gets very dangerous and slippery even when you go over the road lines. The rubber become hardened after 3 years of use.
