Product description & features

The e.Primacy has been designed so that the amount of contact the tyre's tread has with the surface of the road is maximised. By designing the tyre to evenly distribute the pressures of braking, acceleration, and forces into the corners of the tyre, the lifespan of the tyre has been extended significantly.

A low rolling resistance has been achieved through specially constructed compound. Within the tyre's compound elastomer-filler coupling works to greatly reduce energy loss, which lowers rolling resistance - resulting in less fuel or electricity needed to move.

Michelin have designed the e.Primacy with a thinner top belt, that is capable of delivering the same resistance with less raw material. As a result, the e.Primacy generates less rolling resistance overall.

Thanks to an innovative component, the tyre's sidewalls can absorb less energy when flexing - reducing energy consumption and increasing range.

The Michelin e.Primacy - 225/45 R17 W is a summer tyre.

These tyres are much better than the old primacy they replaced, they are quieter, have better fuel economy highlighted by the way it keeps on rolling when on overrun now. Above all the ride over uneven surfaces is softer without loosing handling or grip.

They are excellent tyres as you would expect from Michelin. I have not had a single issue with them and am really pleased with their performance. I am so pleased I have recently purchased another two tyres of the same make and type for the rear of the car.
