Michelin Primacy 3 Acoustic – a tire designed for installation on passenger cars used in the summer period of the year. The model was created specifically for use on medium and premium class vehicles. It's an ideal choice for moving around in urban conditions. The tire provides high comfort, ensuring reliable grip on the road surface in any condition. The model is characterized by a large resource and high performance.
Tread Design
The asymmetric tread pattern guarantees high traction characteristics, both on dry and wet road surfaces. Particular attention was paid to the behavior of the tire on dry asphalt during the development of the pattern. The tread has a low percentage of negative profile, which reduces the risk of creating a hazardous situation on the road to almost zero. There are many self-locking notches around the circumference of the product, which form a contact patch with a sufficiently large area. This ensures good traction in both longitudinal and transverse directions. The tread blocks have smoothed edges, which provide complete control over braking and the tire's response to the slightest wheel movement. The smoothed edges also prevent tire deformation. Numerous lamellas with fillers reduce the mobility of the tread blocks.
Drainage System
The four longitudinal grooves have a large width and depth. There are also many transverse-diagonal grooves on the tread. The combination of grooves and grooves forms a reliable drainage system, which quickly and effectively removes moisture and liquid dirt from the contact patch area, thereby reducing the likelihood of aquaplaning even in active precipitation.
Material of Manufacture
The rubber compound in the base has three elastomers, which gives the product special wear resistance. The material of manufacture also allows reducing fuel consumption without negatively affecting the traction properties.
Acoustic Characteristics
The latest MichelinAcoustic technology was used in the manufacture of the tire, which involves applying polyurethane foam to the inner side of the product, which absorbs vibrations. Accordingly, the noise produced by vibrations during movement is significantly reduced.
