The all-season Michelin Primacy Tour A/S tire is a universal tire designed for use in regions with a specific "European" climate. It is characterized by reliable traction on wet and snowy roads, comfortable handling, smooth and quiet ride, and extended service life.
The tire features the Piano noise reduction technology. The name choice is due to the shape of the blocks, which resemble the keys of the same musical instrument. The elements are arranged with a certain step relative to each other, which minimizes the risk of resonant noise and vibration. Another component of this technology is the optimized design of the block edges, each of which has a chamfer with a very smooth surface. In addition to reducing noise, this solution makes the tire's ride even smoother.
The rubber compound used in this tire is "borrowed" from the CrossClimate model, designed for regions with a colder climate. Its feature is the ability to maintain elasticity even at extremely low temperatures. The use of such a compound allows the model to remain quite efficient on wet and snowy roads, providing reliable handling in such conditions.
Another feature of this model is the optimized carcass design. The use of modern cord winding technologies and advanced synthetic materials has made it possible to reduce the weight and increase the tire's resistance to deformation. As a result, the rolling resistance and heat generation are significantly reduced, especially during prolonged high-speed driving, and higher directional stability and handling accuracy are ensured.
