The Brand

Michelin is one of the world's largest tyre makers, producing tyres for cars, vans, motorcycles, trucks, aircraft and more. The company is known for inventing the removable pneumatic tyre and the radial tyre, and for its long motorsport pedigree. Its range suits drivers who want long-lasting, fuel-efficient tyres with strong safety and handling credentials.

The Pattern
Primacy 4+

Premium summer touring tyre built for quiet comfort, long life and low running costs.

The Primacy 4+ is Michelin's premium touring tyre, aimed at drivers who want a refined, quiet ride and low running costs on everyday journeys. Independent tests rate it highly for tread life and fuel efficiency, with short dry braking distances and settled day-to-day grip. It stays comfortable and hushed at cruising speeds, though its wet handling and deep-water reserves are not quite the sharpest against the newest rivals. A dependable choice for high-mileage motoring.

  • Long tread life for lower cost per mile
  • Low rolling resistance to help save fuel
  • Quiet, refined ride at cruising speeds
  • Short dry braking with steady everyday grip
  • Comfort-focused touring feel
Best for High-mileage saloons, estates and family cars covering regular motorway and commuting journeys
