Excellent Tyres

Reviewed by Trojanhorse11 - February 27, 2023 for a purchase of February 11, 2023

Just had them fitted, so can't comment on long-term use, but straight away I can tell that these are even quieter than my previous Michelin Energy Savers. I was told by my dealership that these tyres are a level above the Energy Savers, hence why they are so expensive, and said I could get an equivalent of the Energy Savers from a brand like Continental. I opted for these at the extra cost thinking it would make my car even better if these tyres are even better. That turned out to be true! Very pleased with them.

Run flats for BMW Mini

Reviewed by Abul - December 13, 2022 for a purchase of June 25, 2022

I've had other run flat tyres on my Mins. But out them, these Michelin Primacy run flats are the only ones that don't tram line. They improve the driving experience by making the steering more predictable.

Great tyre

Reviewed by Mark - November 19, 2022 for a purchase of February 22, 2021

On the Mini John Cooper Works these tyres provide quiet, long lasting driving. Good all round grip only spoilt slightly by being so firm due to being Run Flats. Covered 30k miles with ease

Tyre wears very quickly.recommended PSI. I have the 19 inch tyres. Once these wear I am changing to another brand as its getting rediculous.

Reviewed - May 29, 2021

I'm on my 3 set of tyres in 4.5 years. The last set lasted only 9000 miles and the metal came through on the inside of the front and back drivers side. The other side was worn to 1mm of both tyres too. I had alignment checks two years running and checked the tyre pressures complied with Peugotes recommended PSI.

Cracked tyres

Reviewed - April 29, 2021

Very disappointed with my Michelin Primacy 3 runflat tyres. The have all developed serious cracks between the thread. The company are now ignoring my emails in relation to warranty cover. I really thought more of Michelin but like everything you find out a lot about a company when there is a problem. I could no longer recommend them to anyone. I have Continental premium contact 6 tyres on my other car that are two years older sitting in the same conditions and they are perfect.
