Product description & features

The Michelin Primacy 3 is a summer touring tyre designed for long-distance driving. Primacy 3 features a self-locking tread design and AutoBlock technology. AutoBlock technology incorporates razor-thin slits that lock under load. During braking and cornering, the slits limit movement of the tread rubber. The Primacy 3 incorporates bevelled edges that break the water film at the groove surface before it contacts the road. Michelin’s tread rubber incorporates a unique combination of silica and plasticisers, to balance dry and wet grip throughout the service life of the tyre.

The Michelin Primacy 4 succeeded the Primacy 3. The tyre also comes in a run-flat version. The run-flat version allows for a 50 miles range at 50 mph under certain conditions set out by Michelin. At Tyres.co.uk, we stock the Michelin Primacy 3, including run-flat versions.

Highlights

  • Self-locking tread design
  • Bevelled edges break water film

Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 3 215/60R17 96V
The tyres are performing as expected. Unfortunately, the garage overinflated the tyres during fitting, which caused some handling issues because they were at the front. After adjusting the pressure, they performed as expected.

Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 3 215/60R17 96V
These tyres seem to be original with the car; they seem to have a good lifespan, which is vital for a strong front-wheel drive vehicle.
