Product description & features

  • Wet Braking
  • Excellent Longevity
  • Everyday Comfort

Michelin have developed the Primacy 4 as a premium summer tyre focused on long-lasting safety and reliable everyday performance.

Primacy 4 tyres are available in 17 inch, 18 inch, 19 inch, and 20 inch rim tyre sizes.

Wet Braking Safety

With Michelin EverGrip Technologies and an optimised tread design, the Primacy 4 maintains strong wet braking performance throughout its lifespan. Wider grooves help evacuate water, even as the tyre wears, ensuring confident driving in heavy rain.

Excellent Longevity

Engineered with Michelin’s MaxTouch construction, the Primacy 4 delivers up to 20% more mileage than its predecessor. Even wear distribution across acceleration, braking, and cornering contributes to longer tread life without sacrificing performance.

Fuel Efficiency

A refined compound and tread design help reduce rolling resistance, improving fuel efficiency. Combined with balanced performance for both city driving and long family journeys, the Primacy 4 offers a comfortable, efficient drive.

Michelin Primacy 4 Tyres Variants

The Primacy 4 is currently manufactured in 2 variants of tyre:

  • Passenger car tyres
  • 4x4/SUV tyres

Please note: before you select your tyres, ensure that the tyre size that you intend to order are the correct variant and matches your vehicle type.

The Michelin Primacy 4 S1 - 235/45 R20 V is a summer tyre.

The tyres have performed well on a wide variety of journeys. We have just returned from an 800 mile trip from Perth, Scotland to Wirksworth in Derbyshire via Nottingham. The tyres performed well at high speed on the M6 and A1(M) roads but also on some very narrow and rough country lanes in Derbyshire. Steering always feels positive and braking distance is good. Tyre noise is quite muted. Very good tyres.

Feel on the road in poor weather is good and responsive , not too noisy with a comfortable ride, wear properties are good, appear ok on fuel consumption. - A good all round tyre.

The tyres I purchased were recommended for my car which is a hybrid. The right tyres are really important to me and it is good to be able to consider all the options like noise, grip in the rain etc. These are things I had not previously even thought about I didn’t realise there were options to be honest. Absolutely over the moon with my selection and will certainly be coming back when the rear tyres need replacing. Great tyres, good competitive price, very happy 😃

These Michelin tyres have transformed the way the vehicle drives, gives me so much more confidence in the grip and braking on the road, even in the wet conditions.

Performing fine. With mostly urban, with some 60-mph motorway driving, I am quite a sedate driver. I like to drive smoothly in a manner that my passengers are comfortable and don't particularly notice negotiation of bends and roundabouts - so I don't often notice performance. A few years ago, during a journey in atrocious rain with standing water, I found myself in a dangerous situation where I had to do an emergency stop and fully expected to be in a nasty pile-up. However, I managed to stop astonishingly quickly with plenty of room to spare. I had just fitted a complete set of new MICHELINS. ' Nuff said !!!!

On some road surfaces , tyre noise is whisper quiet. On most, at any speed they drone like mud tyres on an old landrover. Possibly something to do with this irregular tread pattern? Wheel bearings and geometry have subsequently been checked and are perfect. My Michelin Pilot Sports didn’t have any noise problems and didn’t have acoustic inserts either. Wet grip, ride comfort and handling are all perfectly adequate but will fit Continental next time.

They are very good, I am however very annoyed that I could not get the same tyres for the rear axle of the car. It is not an unusual size and it seems bizarre to me when Michelin offer tyres in both sizes in other of their ranges why they shouldn’t for Primacy. It is therefore unlikely that I will buy these tyres again. - I have long been a fan of Michelin Tyres and these have thus far absolutely met my expectations, performing well in the shockingly wet autumn/early winter we have been having!
