If cup corner at 80km/h, of course the Michelins will be better. I still believe you pay for both the brand and quality and I do not want to quote exceptions, just day-to-day normal driving. Sure if have money to spare, go for the best. But if the Michelins are near bo tak, then I rather people focus on regular tyre change than the brand. IMHO. Some information on Michelin Primacy when worn. True to form, the Primacy 4 did better than both competitors. For new tyres, the result was up to 5.4m shorter braking distance and for worn tyres, the best improvement was a staggering 10m shorter braking distance. The worn Primacy 4 tyres even “out-braked” new tyres of one competitor by 1.6m. How’s that for lasting wet braking performance? https://www.torque.com.sg/reviews/michelin-primacy-4-tested-in-thailand/ ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then, I still change out when due. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a high mileage driver, follow quite the standard to rotate every 10k km and stretch to 3 years plus minus. My tyre thread usually still got at least 40-50% but can feel the rubber hardened (road noise start to increase), probably due to our weather condition. I take those test with a pinch of salt (good as a reference) as there are likely elements of marketing and test conditions are likely also different. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
