Latest Michelin Primacy 5 Energy Reviews

Initial Impressions Review
Given 94% while driving a Volvo XC60 T6 AWD (255/45 R20) on for 100 miles
These are simply the best tyres I've put on any of my cars, and I'm being very, very picky just about anything I put on my car!

I've been using Goodyears mostly, now Michelin Primacy 5 Energy blew my mind, seriously.
The tyre is so comfortable, quiet and predictable that it feels like your car has just been upgraded to the next tier.

After putting these on instead of my winters (Goodyear Performance 3), I felt I won't drive home just now, I want to drive a bit more - that's the feeling! And I enjoyed it so much.

Now, I wouldn't say it's a downside for me, definitely not, I sometimes drive fast, but most of the time just cruising, the feel is not sporty, it's rather like a quality casual running shoe (comfy and can be used anywhere you want (except the ice/snow, haha)), it delivers in any aspect, but it's not a sport tyre obviously.
With that said, I can recommend it to anyone, who's driving style is ~30% sporty and ~70% normal/touring.
If you want to race - race, you can do it, no worries, but the tyre will convince you to drive nicely because it's just made for that.

Initial Impressions Review
Given 97% while driving a Tesla Model S (245/45 R19) on for 1,000 miles
Having not long brought my Tesla Model S that was fitted with Budget tyres. Run flats that made the card lack comfort and stability when driving. I immediately found the car handled far better in all weather conditions. (Not driven in snow or icy conditions yet.)
The tyres have made the driving experience much more enjoyable and comfortable. I will update in 10000 miles.
