Disappointing

Reviewed by Paddyl180 - February 16, 2023 for a purchase of December 6, 2022

Initially my vehicle was fitted with energy Saver tyres which regularly gave me in excess of 70 mpg. These were replaced with primacy 4 S1 tyres and I have difficulty getting 60 mpg. Not very happy with the performance. E-primacy tyres are not available at this time in the UK

Is this tire suitable for EVs?

Reviewed by Teaman - January 10, 2023 for a purchase of November 1, 2022

I recently had these tires installed on my EV, (Hyundia Kona). I relied on the shop to pick a very good EV suitable tire, but I'm not at all convinced that this tire is a tire suitable for an EV. EVs are heavier (as much as 25% heavier). Higher torque, and much quieter.

Very noisy tyre

Reviewed by Toni - December 24, 2022 for a purchase of December 1, 2022

I bought a set of Primacy 4 for my volvo v60, they claim that tyre is 70db but I find it a lot noisy compared with my previous tyres. I also contacted Michelin customer support for some help regarding the load, but they were not very helpful at all.
