Grand Touring All SeasonComfort
Michelin Primacy LTX
The Bottom Line
The Primacy LTX is best for drivers who value comfort and noise reduction on long highway journeys, backed by a solid 55,000-mile treadwear warranty. However, its wet grip leaves something to be desired, especially compared to options like the Kumho Solus KH16.
Important Note
Wet grip performance is subpar, making it less ideal for regions with frequent rain.
Pros
- Comfort and noise scores of 8 make for a quiet and smooth ride, ideal for long highway drives.
- Treadwear warranty of 55,000 miles provides reassurance for long-term use compared to many other grand touring tires.
- Handling score of 7.5 ensures stable and predictable performance during daily driving.
Cons
- Wet grip score of 5.5 is below what you'd expect for a tire in this category, which could be a concern in rainy conditions.
- UTQG treadwear rating of 540 is lower than the category average of 683, indicating potentially shorter lifespan compared to competitors.
- The Kumho Solus KH16 offers better wet traction, which might be a better choice for those prioritizing performance in wet conditions.
