Michelin Primacy HP

$150.00 Released October, 2009

The Pros:Good handling when driving at high speeds. Very quiet, almost perfectly silent. Response in general is superb, moves with your movements right away.

The Cons:Feedback from the road can seem too harsh, not a very relaxing drive. Wear out in a relatively short period of time. Can't handle any snow or ice, lose traction fairly quickly.

The Michelin Primacy HP is a mid-priced summer tire designed specifically for luxury vehicles. The European handling profile of this tire has a rounded shoulder that offers easy handling, even when you are testing the limits of your vehicle.
