Michelin Primacy HP tyres

The Michelin PRIMACY HP is an ultra-high performance tyre that has been selected by many car manufacturers as original equipment for their models. That in itself is a proof of quality. In addition to this, this summer tyre has constantly performed very well in test sessions. It featured as the star of ADAC's summer tyre test of 2008 with faultless behaviour on dry roads, where it achieved, among other distinctions, a score of 1.3 for handling and braking. As for the tread wear criterion, it received perfect ratings - here, none of its competitors could come close to matching it. Overall, the ADAC verdict was "a very balanced summer tire".

Excellent test results for the Michelin PRIMACY HP

One year later, Auto Motor Sport editors tested the Michelin PRIMACY HP to the very limit. They were equally impressed, and praised its excellent handling characteristics and high steering precision. The ride comfort and low rolling resistance have also been noted - the tyre came out of the testing sessions with the "recommended" rating.

The Michelin PRIMACY HP's profile is designed to ensure that pressure is evenly distributed. This is made possible by the robust nature of the rubber compound, which makes it very resistant to deformation. Compared to its predecessor, the Michelin Pilot Primacy, the PRIMACY HP has a shorter braking distance, due in part to the larger contact area. Because of the complex profile sipping pattern and well sized tread lugs, the tyre provides excellent traction on dry and wet roads.
