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.

The Primacy MXM4 is Michelin's Grand Touring All-Season tire developed for luxury sedan and coupe drivers looking to combine all-weather handling and traction with good noise and ride comfort. Most Primacy MXM4 tires meet Michelin's Green X standard* for eco-focused manufacturing and low rolling resistance, and confirms the tire's contribution to reducing vehicle fuel consumption, emission of CO2 gases and improving sustainability through conservation of natural resources. The Primacy MXM4 is designed to blend a quiet, comfortable ride, responsive handling and enhanced fuel efficiency with year-round all-season traction, even in light snow.

The Primacy MXM4 features Michelin's first use of their patented sunflower oil-enriched Helio Compound technology in an all-season tire to increase traction at low temperatures for improved braking and handling in the wet, as well as better overall performance in the snow. The Helio Compound is molded into an asymmetric tread design featuring a European handling profile with rounder shoulders that are designed to provide progressive, predictable cornering. Circumferential grooves evacuate water out from under the tire's footprint to reduce hydroplaning while Michelin's 3-D Variable Thickness Sipe Technology provides additional biting edges to enhance wet and wintertime traction.

The Primacy MXM4 was developed with Michelin Comfort Control Technology using computer-optimized design and precision manufacturing methods to reduce vibration and road noise. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts reinforced by Michelin's BAZ (Banded At Zero) spiral-wrapped polyamide cord that stabilizes the tread area to enhance treadwear, handling and high-speed capability. The Primacy MXM4 features a polyester cord body to provide a smooth ride.

*Specific sizes featuring Green X technology are identified as such on the Sizes tab, as well as on the tire's Specs tab.

Toyo Celsius II Reviews

Feedback consistently shows the Toyo Celsius II delivers excellent comfort with smooth ride quality and low noise levels. Treadwear receives strong praise (8-10 range), though some note earlier-than-expected wear. Winter traction stands out with confident performance in snow and slush, supported by reliable wet grip and hydroplaning resistance. Dry handling is responsive, fitting its grand touring role. While most categories score highly, a few reports of uneven treadwear suggest monitoring alignment and rotation practices for optimal longevity.

...So far these tires have performed better on snow and ice than my last set of dedicated snow tires...

These tires are unreal!
Purchased these tires prior to winter as they were said to be good on snow and ice. I was tired of switching between all-seasons and snows every year. So far these tires have performed better on snow and ice than my last set of dedicated snow tires. If treadware holds up these will be my go to tire for everything going forward.

...Best part is, the traction on snow and ice does not deminish as the tread wears. I had these tires on a Subaru Legacy sedan, and it plowed through any weather conditions.

This tire is a game changer because I use them year round, so no need to store and swap tires every six months in NE Ohio. Best part is, the traction on snow and ice does not deminish as the tread wears. I had these tires on a Subaru Legacy sedan, and it plowed through any weather conditions.

...Great dry traction & handling...

I've had these tires for about 1 year, and I'm very satisfied with them. Primarily local & highway driving. Great dry traction & handling. Wet handling very good but I can bust the tail loose if I try. Has not hydroplaned yet, and I run 75-80 on I-95. Very quiet and comfortable ride. Tire wear so far has been very good. Definitely a quality product and a good purchase. Had Michelin Defenders on it before, and the Toyo's are better.

...Compared to Michelin Defender I replaced with Celsius II, ride quality was a clear upgrade, much quieter and noticeably more plush over rough pavement...

I installed Toyo Celsius II on a base FWD Toyota Corolla, but didn’t accumulate many miles because I sold the car shortly after. That said, during my time with them they exceeded expectations.

Compared to Michelin Defender I replaced with Celsius II, ride quality was a clear upgrade, much quieter and noticeably more plush over rough pavement. Grip was confidence-inspiring in everyday driving in NE winter, and even when pushing the chassis harder than most people would in a Corolla, I never encountered unexpected breakaway or traction issues. For an all-weather tire in this category, the balance of comfort and control was impressive.

The compound feels relatively soft, so long-term wear and durability remain unknown. Pricing is not particularly competitive without rebates. Overall, I was very happy with the tires and wish I had more time on them.

...As far as theses tires go anyone who know anything about the 1992 LS 400 its a very quiet car these tires so far are great and quiet on the road. I did get them up to about 70 MPH on the highway to see the road noise. It was very minimum...

I used to have a 1990 Acura Legend L with Toyo Proxies on it. I loved those tires and I had an issue with them dry rotting and Toyo honored the warranty after they shipped the tires back to them on there cost and examining them. Toyo honored there warranty, unlike a bad experience I had with Michelin not honoring there warranty for a steel belt separating, Michelin can say all they want and make the best tire in the world as some say but not honoring your warranty is really bad. I will never buy Michelin again. That says a lot about the company to me,for one to honor it the other to deny it. And yes the tires were in good shape in both cases.

As far as theses tires go anyone who know anything about the 1992 LS 400 its a very quiet car these tires so far are great and quiet on the road. I did get them up to about 70 MPH on the highway to see the road noise. It was very minimum.The road feel is very good for me. They corner good not that the LS 400 is a sports car but it can take a off ramp serve pretty decent for it's size and weight.
I have not driven these tires in the Snow or Rain yet so commenting on that would not be fair for this review.

These are a wonderful all weather tire combining a smooth, quiet ride, great traction regardless of conditions, and great wear. They also don't lose traction like other more expensive tires do when they start wearing.

...At 10,000 miles all tires have roughly 8-9/32nds of tread remaining.

I grew up with my parent's always buying Toyo tires for their vehicles. Dad always purchased Toyo M-55s for his truck and my Mom always had a variant of the Toyo Open Country ATs on her Suburban. We never had any wear issues or compromises from these tires so I figured I'd try the Celsius II on my Mazda CX50. Tires are expensive for the 20" wheels that come on these and while I've previously purchased Michelin CCs for my other vehicles, I couldn't stomach over $300 a tire. Giving these a shot, I've not had any issues with dry, wet, or snow handling. We get a lot less snow in my area than we used to so a decent set of all weather tires with AWD is more than enough to get me through the handful of snowy and icy days. I feel these tires do well on ice and I never had any issues in deep, slushy snow. Light snow it's like the snow isn't there. Steering is good in the winter too and the tires overall feel very predictable in inclement weather. Road noise is somewhere in the middle of a little noisy and not too bad. Overall, happy with my choice. At 10,000 miles all tires have roughly 8-9/32nds of tread remaining.

Great tire purchase for the money, car drives better than ever, when I rotated I inspected them and they are wearing evenly. I would recommend. Plus they are all weather. While they are not a dedicated snow tire we deal safer just in case since we live in Colorado and sometimes it snows unexpectedly. Great tire for our commuter.
