Product description & features

The Michelin Primacy 4+ is a premium summer tyre that focuses on improving safety and performance with wear. It employs Michelin EverGrip Technologies to maintain wet braking performance as the tyre wears by generating new grooves to clear water from the tyre. The Primacy 4+ uses two rubber compounds in the tread, with the outer layer wearing away to preserve the water channeling grooves. Michelin’s MaxTouch Construction evenly distributes the forces of acceleration, braking, and cornering over the patch of road the tyre is in contact with, promoting even wear of the tread.

The Primacy 4+ is the successor to the Primacy 4, and is in turn succeeded by the Primacy 5. There are reinforced XL variants for heavier vehicles. We have the Michelin Primacy 4+ available at Tyres.co.uk.

Highlights

  • Wet braking maintained as tyre wears
  • Two rubber compounds in tread
  • Reinforced XL versions available

Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4+ 245/45R17 99W XL
I have been using these tyres for 15 years and have had no issues. The tyres are worth the money as my family spends a lot of time in the car, I always go for the best quality tyres.

Tyre review for Michelin Primacy 4+ 245/45R17 99W XL
I made my selection based on my personal reviews and trust in Michelin. They give exceptional traction in both wet and dry conditions and offer an ultra-high performance tyre option for my E220 Mercedes which is critical for me as I often have family in the car. While the cornering feel may not be as good as something like the PS4s, the performance is perfect for daily driving and your safety and grip is never in question. I do recommend them, even at the increased price.

It might be too early for me to say for sure, but I know the last set of tyres did well regardless of the weather.

The level of accuracy in which you can control the steering has increased, and the smoothness of the ride has also improved significantly.
