Does this tire fit your vehicle?

Tires are designed specifically for different vehicles and wheel sizes. Tell us about your vehicle or the specific size you want so we can help find the right tires for you.

Standard Touring All-Season tires are for drivers who want a combination of sporty appearance, long wear, predictable handling and S- or T-speed rated durability, along with all-season traction including in light snow. Standard Touring All-Season tires branded with the M+S symbol are often used as Original Equipment (O.E.) on sporty coupes and sedans.

O.E. Standard Touring All-Season tires are typically purchased as direct replacements for worn-out pairs/sets of the vehicle's original tires. They can also be used for other vehicle applications in complete sets of four or axle pairs if available in an appropriate size, load range and speed rating to match the existing O.E. tires' performance category and specifications.

...Very smooth and quiet, great wet traction especially compared to the OEM Bridgestones. Makes our Enclave extremely sure footed...

Excellent tire. Very smooth and quiet, great wet traction especially compared to the OEM Bridgestones. Makes our Enclave extremely sure footed. Only complaint is tread life for price. I drive mainly highway, 100 mile round trip 6 days a week. I have 45,000 mile on the set and they are at 1/32" so time for a new set, always rotated and kept properly inflated.

...Purchased in Michigan, drove 4 hours through a rainstorm home northwest of Chicago. Did absolutely great... Even at 85mph no issues with hydroplaning...

New car, oem tire. Purchased in Michigan, drove 4 hours through a rainstorm home northwest of Chicago. Did absolutely great. I'm shocked. Oem tires are usually terrible in my experience. Even at 85mph no issues with hydroplaning. All that remains to be seen is snow and Treadwell. Will update at 5k miles.

...In wet conditions tire was reliable at higher speeds (~80-100 MPH) with no concerns of hydroplaning. Cornering did make the tires chirp audibly in the cabin with some mild understeer (>35 MPH)...

Came as OEM on my vehicle. Held up for the past 3 Wisconsin winters pretty well considering average of ~3in of snow.

Most of the issues I faced was in deep snow (3+ in) where the tires would partially hold traction leading to some wider than anticipated turns when going about 10-15 MPH.

Tire performance was definitely best in dry conditions as I was able to avoid a collision while in a traffic circle by moving towards the inner lane with no loss traction (~35 MPH) at all.

In wet conditions tire was reliable at higher speeds (~80-100 MPH) with no concerns of hydroplaning. Cornering did make the tires chirp audibly in the cabin with some mild understeer (>35 MPH).

With all of the above considered, my biggest gripe was the tread wear. At ~3/32 after 30k miles.

...I usually run snow tires but being that these tires were pretty much brand new I figured I'd give them a shot in winter. They handled the snow and wet roads way better than expected, pleasantly surprised by their performance!!...

These came as the OEM tires on my 23 Corolla SE. I did put Eibach lowering springs on the vehicle which lowered the vehicle 2 inches.

This is my daily vehicle and my first Wisconsin winter with this set up was surprising. I usually run snow tires but being that these tires were pretty much brand new I figured I’d give them a shot at winter.

They handled the snow and wet roads way better than expected, pleasantly surprised by their performance!! I do drive in all weather conditions for work daily so I’m a pretty confident driver and these tires give me the confidence I’m looking for.

Time will tell though, as I’ve only got about 17k on them.

Surprisingly excellent, especially for an OEM tire. Handled a blizzard on I-90 where none of the four lanes were visible through the packed snow. Hyundai HTrac I'm sure helped.

The steering is effortless and stays centered with very minimal input from the driver...

The Tucson is my 5th SUV and it is the one that drives and rides like a sedan. I believe it is because of the tires it came with, Michelins Primacy A/S. The steering is effortless and stays centered with very minimal input from the driver. They are quiet and do well with roads imperfections. Definitely, the best riding SUV I have had (that includes an MDX and more than one RX, all with "Crossover/SUV" tires).
I have not driven them in snow yet (Cincinnati, Ohio). That is why I answered "Probably" would buy them again. I will update when that happens.

These are a very comfortable riding and quiet tire with good dry traction - luxury tire...

These were the OE tires, and the default for 21" wheels. These are a very comfortable riding and quiet tire with good dry traction - luxury tire. They did remarkably well on grass/gravel, but I attribute a lot of this to the RRS insane traction control offroad programming. Actually better than our GMC Sierra AT4 on Falken ATW's on the exact same trails. My big concern with the Primacy's is their lack of wet traction and hydroplanning resistance - very mediocre. I compared them to our 2008 Range Rover with Conti AT's and 2010 Range Rover with Michelin Defender LTX on the same wet roads, and the 2023 RRS with the Primacy's offered considerably less grip and hydroplanning resistance. I'm debating whether to put on the Defender LTX's in the stock size or go to a 20" wheel with the Conti's or Falken ATW's. The Primacy's are getting taken off an put in storage until I sell the RRS, whenever that is (not soon).

I'm not sure why there are so many bad reviews for treadwear life. I got 77,000 miles out of mine! Granted, that was mostly highway driving, and I am now a bit below the wear bars, but 77,000 miles is fantastic. And I sometimes do some spirited driving in the NC mountains, so it's not all highway miles. They are very expensive, so I haven't decided yet if I will buy them again or not.

...While they're not a performance tire, they show hardly any tread wear after more than 50,000 miles in service! We rotate them regularly ( every 10,000 miles) as recommended, and I suspect that has helped extend their service life dramatically...

These were the original tires on our 2022 Mustang Mach-E Premium RWD. While they're not a performance tire, they show hardly any tread wear after more than 50,000 miles in service! We rotate them regularly (every 10,000 miles) as recommended, and I suspect that has helped extend their service life dramatically. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for cars like our Mustang Mach-E. Here in northern California, we hardly even need an all-season tire as we never have to drive in snow. This tire has worked very well for us!
