Review on Tires Michelin Primacy 3 205/55 R16 91V runFlat by Micha Micha ᠌

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The quality is terrible and the product is not what it says it is.

I rarely write reviews, but now it's boiling over. I didn’t even ride for two weeks, as I was completely disappointed in this rubber. The noise on the roads with coarse-grained asphalt, of which we have the majority in the 2022, is terribly annoying. May came, the air temperature warmed up to +22, I decided to go to the track to ride, to try out the vaunted qualities. Handling is generally lost, as if you are driving a ship into a storm, although the car itself (handling) is pretty good (Mazda 3). A week later, I flew into a small hole, pierced the wheel to the disc. And the rubber and the disk are thrown out, this has never happened before. I want to say that there is something to compare with. Previous Continental Contipremiumcontact 5 wheels have served faithfully for 4 years, not a single puncture or hernia. As it turned out, they are also quieter than the vaunted Michelin. Bought on the reviews, I thought Primacy would be even quieter. Complete disappointment. As an option - perhaps the fact that the rubber is made in the 2022 is partly to blame.

Pros
  • quite quiet on dry smooth pavement
Cons
  • disgusting handling, unbearably noisy on asphalt with high abrasiveness (which is strange for such soft rubber), manufactured in the 2022
