Michelin e.Primacy vs Michelin Primacy 4 — Compared

“New Tires: Michelin e.Primacy ... anyone with experience? I'm losing 0.5psi per minute (patched, but on the shoulder). I blocked it to save the rim. I chose the Michelin e.Primacy and I'm just curious if anyone else has done the same switch. I'm done with the Continentals. Awesome on my mountain bike, but I'm not pleased with them on the Y. I think I'm at 5 plugs and 1 patch. Regular commuter type driving, nothing fancy (I got kids man). Read more”

“Michelin E Primacy opinions? Hello, I have a 2023 BMW X3 RWD. The original tires are currently at 4 mm in the front and 3.5 mm in the rear after 24k miles, so they’re almost due for replacement. The car is mainly driven in town, and we live in southern Tennessee where snow is very rare (maybe 1–2 days a year), although temperatures do drop below freezing in the winter. I’m considering Michelin e.Primacy (grand touring summer) tires since they’re available at a great price—about $158 each after rebate. Would these be a poor choice for this type of climate?”

“Michelin E.Primacy vs Pilot Sport 4 — care iau vara 2026 pentru sedan compact? Salutare! Trebuie să schimb anvelopele de iarnă și m-am blocat între două variante Michelin pentru 205/55 R16. Amândouă sunt verificate de ani de zile, dar profilele sunt foarte diferite. Michelin E.Primacy — 94H Anvelopă eco, gândită pentru consum redus și confort. Testele independente arată un consum cu 15-20% mai mic față de un Pilot Sport 4 pe autostradă. Zgomot redus, confortabilă pe drumuri naționale. Perfectă dacă faci în principal drumuri lungi și vrei să economisești la pompă. Michelin Pilot Sport 4 — 94Y Ea e anvelopa sportivă din gama Michelin. Aderență uscat excelentă, răspuns precis la direcție, se simte o diferență clară în viraje. Dar consumă mai mult și e puțin mai zgomotoasă. Dacă îți place să conduci dinamic, asta e alegerea clară. Contextul meu: Sedan compact, ~1300 kg Drumuri mixte: 50% oraș, 30% național, 20% autostradă Conducere normală, nu agresivă Buget mediu spre sus Ceea ce m-a atras la E.Primacy e voucherul Michelin activ până la 30 aprilie — 300-500 lei înapoi la set de 4 anvelope. Practic diferența de preț față de Pilot Sport 4 se micșorează considerabil. Voi ce ați alege între cele două? Sau aveți alte recomandări în aceeași gamă de preț?”

“Gomme alternative a Primacy 4 Buongiorno, ho una Peugeot 208 del 2020 con delle Michelin Primacy 4 205/45 R 17 88 V, le ho da 4 anni, circa 20000km all’anno tranne quest’anno che non le ho sostituite con le invernali e che quindi dovrei portarle ad usura completa con il prossimo “giro” delle gomme per altri 20000km. In totale arriverò a quasi 100000km, quindi super ammortizzate e le consiglierei sempre anche per la tenuta. Visto che entro fine estate pensavo di sostituirle tutte e quattro, vorrei capire se ci fossero delle alternative un più economiche ma altrettanto valide (un cambio gomme al momento mi costa circa €650-700).

“I might try to have a look at one today. There are two Uniroyal shops near me. Whether they have one in stock to look at though...? The trouble is they look really nice online but I'd like to see them in the flesh first. The old tyres (above photo) that were on these wheels were that nice square edged profile that I like, much the same as the Michelin Pilot Sports. These are going on my sons Golf EV so I'm also trying to consider if they are A rated for fuel, the best wet grip I can find and the lowest decibel level. The best choice I can find is the Michelin Primacy 4 which are A, A and 68. But on Black Circles it says they were designed for BMW. I'm sure they fit any wheel but do those properties still hold? I've always bought Pilots but B, B and 72, and its this 72 that really bugs me, is whats making me invest so much time into getting the right tyre for Toms EV. I'm getting a Tesla this Tuesday which does in fact come with the Pilots so they must be good on EV's anyway. Who knew buying tyres was so complicated.”

“Michelin Primacy 4 or Conti UC6 - Virtus GT Hey, i recently got a Virtus GT with stock Apollo alnac 4g tyres - looking to upgrade them. As per ChatGPT my options are Michelin Primacy 4 and Continental UC6 - budget is not really a problem. Overall i want good grip, handling, comfort and low cabin noise. Not going for Pilot Sport 4, because don't want to compromise on comfort for performance when i am not going to push my car too much, hence PS4 is a no no. But read it somewhere that with Primacy 4, there is a noticeable difference in mileage not sure if it means going up or down. Need recommendations on what i should get! Thanks in advance”
