Michelin Pilot Primacy

The Michelin Pilot Primacy tyres has long been a popular choice as original equipment (OE) on a number of luxury performance vehicles. In 2007 Audi selected the Michelin Pilot Primacy as OE on the Audi TT, Audi A3 and Audi A4.

It seems you get it all with this tyre; performance, comfort and long life. Precise handling and responsiveness are aided by the large stiff silica compound tread blocks. It also has exceptional handling in the wet, thanks to the two grooved channels that do a great job in pumping water out from under the tyre. When this silica compound tyre was first launched, Michelin claimed that it would have a 25% longer tread life than its class competitors. This claim has since been verified in independant tests.
