In comparison to plastic, the Michelin Primacy 3 feels just like silicone after the Toyo Proxes CF2 upgrade. Heaven, as well as the earth. Gentle, unobtrusive, and opulent in comfort. I don't want to know how it slows down or how it avoids aquaplaning because I don't know how it does any of those things. This is not something I am attempting to validate. I have faith in the reliability of the Michelin brand thanks to its long and illustrious history. Honda Accord vehicle. Because of the poor condition of the roads and the suppleness of the Primacy 3 sidewalls, I went out of my way to purchase tires with a profile of 225/55/17 rather than the regular 225/50/17. In the past, when I swam on Toyo, I would get a painful sports cramp in my jaw, but now days, when I swim on Michelin, I feel like I'm riding in a limousine and I have a good time. Option for those who value tranquility and comfort together.
