OVERVIEW

The Michelin Primacy 4+ is a performance and high performance, summer tire made for passenger vehicles.

High speed controllability is guaranteed with this tread design. The symmetric tread pattern keeps the surface contact at all times, by maintaining surface contact at all times. This enables the tire to firmly grip the road surface, upgrading steering responsiveness and driving stability. In other words, these elements increase steering response time and accuracy to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against driving pressure. Cornering and maneuvering are upgraded as well. At the same time, the special siping detail shortens the braking distance by creating friction. These elements ensure the driver's full control over the vehicle.

The tire increases its summer traction. The summer compound and the ideal tread design increase the dry and wet grip on the road. The compound actively avoids heat build-up along the tread area, while the tread elements increase the grip with additional biting edges. The wide circumferential grooves and the angled lateral grooves prevent hydroplaning, by channeling water from the footprint. This combination ensures the tire's safe summer-weather performance, boosting warm-temperature driving safety.

High speed durability is ensured with this tire. This tire upgrades its high speed durability. The optimal tread design can easily follow the road surface, while the strong construction maintains the optimal tire shape under pressure. Also, the heat-resistant compound prevents pressure accumulation along the tread area. This combination guarantees excellent high speed performance.

The Michelin Primacy 4+ provides a quiet and comfortable driving experience. The passengers can enjoy high driving comfort levels by reducing road noise. This is achieved with the optimized tread elements that prevent sound wave formations. As road noise does not reach the vehicle's cabin, the tire makes sure to promote a quiet driving experience.

This specific tire is marked with CZ as it is the original equipment of Subaru vehicles.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
